Hare Kṛṣṇa My Dearest Spiritual Grandfather and now my Spiritual Father, Guru Mahārāja.
Please accept my most respectful and humble obeisances at the dust of Your divine lotus feet,
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda
All glories to Śrīla Jayapatākā Swami Guru Mahārāja.
Oh My Dear Guru Pīta!
How can a foolish soul like me even dare to think of Glorifying Your Holiness when I have no qualifications to even be intelligent enough to recognize A Paramahaṁsa Like Your Holiness Gurudeva. To my unqualified thinking, I cannot imagine any dictionary that can give me the best of words to summarize Your glory Gurudeva yet to purify myself I shall try Glorifying the unlimited Glories of My Guru Mahārāja.
In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is mentioned that ‘‘An intelligent man is He who engages in the devotional service of The Lord under the guidance of a bonafide Spiritual Master whom He should accept as His Worshipable deity and His very Life and soul’’ (SB 11.2.37)
Oh Śrīla Gurudeva, I take this instruction to my life as I do not know of any other worship able deity than Your Holiness. I absolutely cannot imagine and do not wish for a Life where I would not be under the shelter of Your divine lotus feet Gurudeva. You are my guiding angel through the darkness of this material world. There is nothing else I desire than to have Your constant association wether in this life or any other. As Śrīla Bhakti Vinod Thakur says
‘‘mārobi rākhobi-jo icchā tohārā, nitya-dāsa prati tuwā adhikārā’’
Oh, Dear Gurudevaa!
Oh, Guru Pita!
Slay me or protect me as You wish, because You are the master of this eternal servant of Yours. Pls accept me at Your service for today and forever Gurudeva.
On this extremely auspicious day of Your 74th Vyāsa-pūjā I would like to extend my Gratefulness for having me and family under Your Shelter Gurudeva. We can never ever repay You Gurudeva for the amount of mercy You have shown on such fallen souls like us. Our Thank Yous are not enough to express how thankful we are. Pls keep us always in Your Shelter Gurudeva.
A very Happy 74th Vyāsa-pūjā Gurudeva. My Deepest and sincere prayers at the lotus feet of Śrī Balaji for Your speedy recovery Guru Mahārāja
Begging numerable times for Your forgiveness for my unlimited aparādhās.
