My dear spiritual father,
His Holiness Śrīla Jayapatākā Swami Guru Mahārāja,
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
Please accept my respectful obeisances! All glories to Śrīla Gurudeva!! All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!!
This very insignificant disciple of yours is taking this opportunity to offer homage unto you.
I always want to be grateful for the causeless mercy you bestowed upon me by giving shelter under your divine lotus feet.
Please, Śrīla Gurudeva make me a nice Kṛṣṇa conscious Paramahaṁsa gṛhastha for the pleasure of Śrīla Prabhupāda. I am ever grateful to you for constantly shining your mercy upon me and making me realize the real purpose of life. I am very fortunate to get very compassionate instructing spiritual masters, thank you so much for giving them to me.
I remember from your class once you have mentioned, “Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu will deliver all but not the one who is with false pride and offense”.
I kindly beg you to please give me the strength and intelligence to engage in the devotional service at your lotus feet thereby I can be a sincere and obedient servant of your servant of your servant of your servant of your servant...
All glories to Śrīla Gurudeva!! All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!!
Yours insignificant sheltered disciple,
Sivapriya Subramani
