nama om vishnupadaya krisha presthaya bhu-tale
srimate Jayapataka swamin iti namine
nama acharyapadaya nitai kripa pradayine
gaura katha dhama daya nagara grama tarine
Dear Guru Maharaj,
Please accept my respectful obeisance unto the dust of Your lotus feet.
On this most auspicious day of Your 74th Vyas Puja, I would like to humbly express my feelings of sincere gratitude to you for everything that I am today. Kindly bless me, so that I take full advantage of Your shelter in this rare human birth.
Guru Maharaj, You are the most loving and gentle father any child could ask for. I thank Srila Prabhupada from the bottom of my heart for giving me such a kind and loving spiritual father. I am completely Yours; I surrender myself more and more to Your lotus feet day after day. Guru Maharaj, fulfilling Your desire is the only goal of my life. With Your blessings I have moved to Canada. Though full of faults and very inefficient, I am trying my best to carry out Your instruction to assist You in fulfilling the mission of Srila Prabhupada. Please bless me profusely to do my part to please You, Srila Prabhupada and Gauranga Mahaprabhu.
Guru Maharaj, the profound mercy and energy that You leave after each program (class) is beyond words and totally blissful to all the listeners. This world is blazing more and more as Kaliyuga progresses and only someone like Your divine grace can save all of us from this situation. When I see and think of You, You appear so immense and vast just like an ocean of mercy that bathes us, taking away the anarthas accumulated over lifetimes. I am very fortunate and forever grateful to be a recipient of this unconditional love and causeless mercy that You share with anyone You come across.
On this most auspicious day, together with my family, I pray to Sri Narasimhadev to give You a long and healthy life. Although not qualified, we are constantly praying to the Lord for Your welfare as this life of Krishna consciousness is only by Your mercy.
Your lotus feet are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service; I one again pray at Your lotus feet so everyone across the globe may always have Your association and become Your unalloyed servants, serving Your mission tirelessly and wholeheartedly.
Your forever indebted servant,
Kuladipika sundari devi dasi
