Vyāsa-pūjā 2023

Dushyanthan (Mayapur - India)

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

 

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

 

Śrīla Prabhupāda's mercy is like an ocean. Who can accommodate that ocean of mercy other than you, who is like the sky, which can give shelter to every living entity. Gurudeva you can deliver the universe, such that pure and empowered are you. 

What number of words can describe your holiness's immeasurable causeless mercy upon the most fallen souls who are fully drawn in the ocean of ignorance and sins. I'm one of those souls who was fighting to stay afloat in the ocean of misery and ignorance. You are my only shelter and saviour of my life. When am I going to meet you, who is the only person I waited millions of years for. That will be the movement in my existence in this universe, which will be the full stop to my story of endless sufferings. Please give me your darśana and please give me Dīkṣā. I don't find strong lotus feet other than your divine self's lotus feet. You came down for us from Goloka to spread the worldwide mission established by the Commander in Chief of the Supreme Lord Gaurahari. You are the best Commander who fights the māyā in an unprecedented scale and delivers the prisoners of māyā in thousands and millions. Māyā is ashamed to face your divine presence and runs away. 

Guru Mahārāja, please give me the eternal shelter your lotus feet. I want to remain as a mere dust particle at your lotus feet and serve Śrīla Prabhupāda, your divine self, and your disciples forever. Indeed, I'm very much qualified candidate to enter the most abominable living condition and hellish planets, but not qualified to become your servant or son. I'm suffering from the material disease and dusty heart. Who will be delivering me if not your divine self, who distributes the ultimate mercy, Nitāi-kṛpā. And who can be the one other than me, can give you the satisfaction of delivering the undeliverable, most rotten person? Hence kindly accept me into the shadow of your lotus feet.

Guru Mahārāja, if you find something good in this homage, it is only because of your mercy. You only as antarayāmī in my heart helped express my feelings towards you in words which I don't know to do. 

Jaya Gurudeva! Jaya Śrīla Prabhupāda!

 

Your eternal insignificant servant,
Dushyanthan
