The lotus feet of our spiritual master is the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service. I bow to his lotus feet with great awe and reverence.
Your appearance in this material world is very special because you have especially taken this birth to reclaim the fallen souls.
In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (8.7.44) it is said that great personalities almost always accept voluntary suffering because of the suffering of people in general. This is considered the highest method of worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is present in everyone’s heart.
On your auspicious appearance day, it is a great opportunity to express my deep heartfelt gratitude to your lotus feet. Since the day you accepted me as your disciple, I have neither given up my faith in this movement nor my respect and adoration for you, dear Guru Mahārāja. Every day through my prayers I beseech you to forgive my faults, therefore someday I become your worthy disciple.
Glorifying you as an expert preacher Guru Mahārāja, each time I hear you speak I am amazed at how you can exactly recognize what I need to rectify in my devotional service.
The way you develop and maintain personal relationships with everyone surely testifies to how much you care for all your disciples. You show unlimited compassion to the living entities who are in a state of forgetfulness of Krsna, by constantly preaching, reaching out to them, and giving so much of your time, guidance, and care.
My Vyāsa-pūjā offering can never satiate how much I am indebted to your causeless mercy. Thank you Guru Mahārāja, for always providing me a source of inspiration in my devotional service. By your exemplary commitment, you always prove that spiritual service is always transcendental Vs the so-called material pleasure.
Guru Mahārāja, it is my sincere desire that I may be able to assist you, in some small way. I am only praying every day at your lotus feet and Kṛṣṇa that I am able to carry out your instructions faithfully and happily, inundating everyone with Kṛṣṇa consciousness and make the victory flag fly higher and higher.
Unlimited praṇāmas to your lotus feet,
Your spiritual daughter,
Sītā Cāru Devī Dāsī
