My dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances at the dust of the lotus feet of your divine grace. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
My dear Guru Mahārāja, I am very grateful to Gurudeva, for all the very wonderful abundant mercy coming into my life enabling me to practice devotional service nicely. Fallen as I am, your divine grace have given meaning and direction in my life in devotional service. I am very grateful for the invaluable connection to Śrīla Prabhupāda and thus the disciplic succession that Gurudeva is bestowing upon me by enabling me to read, understand and relish Śrīla Prabhupāda’s books, hear Śrīla Prabhupāda’s lectures and for engaging me in the many services. I am very grateful to Gurudeva for the classes and lectures of your divine grace which is enabling me to become steadfast in devotional service despite my incapability.
My dear Gurudeva, the web of protection offered by your divine grace in my life is unlimited as is the mercy of your divine grace which is enabling me to practice devotional service very nicely and serve ISKCON according to my capacity and realizations.
On this most auspicious and glorious occasion of the Vyāsa-pūjā of your divine grace, it is my earnest request that Gurudeva bestow causeless mercy on this fallen soul keeping me ever at the lotus feet of your divine grace. I beg for the dust of the lotus feet of Gurudeva life after life.
On this glorious occasion our ardent prayers are to Śrīla Prabhupāda, the disciplic succession, Lord Narasiṁhadeva, Rādhā Mādhava, Rādhā Govinda, Rādhā Madana Mohana and Rādhā Gopīnātha that they bestow their causeless mercy upon all of us and keep your divine grace in our midst for very long time so that many fallen souls such as me can benefit and so do the general mankind by the most auspicious presence of your divine grace in this planet.
I remain always begging at the dust of the Lotus feet of Your Divine Grace,
Servant of Your Divine Grace,
