Vyāsa-pūjā 2022

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācaryapādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe

My dear most spiritual father Śrīla Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful obeisance’s, all glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda, all glories to Your Divine Grace.

Guru Mahārāja, thank you for giving us darśana every day and for visiting our homes and accepting our humble offerings. Even during the time of crisis when the whole world was under lockdown, you never cared about your own self but always thought about wellbeing of others.

Thank you, Guru Mahārāja for keeping all of us at the shelter of Your divine lotus feet. In this Age of Kali-yuga, where everyone is full of greed and trying to take advantage of others, your selfless service and love for Kṛṣṇa and spreading his name everywhere inspires me tremendously that whenever I think about it, it gives me inner strength and hope to fight my negative thoughts and try to do service for guru and Gaurāṅga’s pleasure.

I am a deeply fallen soul with no desires to serve anyone else except my senses. However, only because of Guru Mahārāja’s mercy, I am able to do what I am doing. Please keep me always in your association so that I can also be of some value to you even though extremely insignificant and negligible it may be.

Guru Mahārāja, please bless me so that I continue to follow the path of bhakti and stay devoted in the most provoking situations. I pray that my desires will always be aligned with the purpose of Your Divine Grace’s mission.

Please bless that the whole world become blissful and peaceful by taking shelter of your lotus feet.

Your insignificant spiritual son,

Shivam Śrīvastava (aspiring disciple)
