To my beloved Spiritual Master, whose mercy is always protecting disciples from falling and who is always thinking of delivering them back to Kṛṣṇa, all glories to your divine grace. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
By carrying the two Lords Mahāprabhu and Nityānanda prabhu in the heart; you shine out like the radiant sun, dissipating the darkness of ignorance in the heart of those on whom you mercifully glance. Just as the sun evaporates all contamination without getting contaminated, you have burnt away a lot of impurity in my heart by the warmth of your compassionate glance. Your compassion for the bound jīvas is unlimited.
I am extremely grateful that you have taken me and my family under your shadow and handholding in every step to inch towards the ultimate destination. By your causeless mercy, absolutely true to the verdict that Spiritual Master makes the dumb into eloquent speakers and lame to cross mountains, you have enabled this useless tiny soul and engages in the service of yours to Śrīla Prabhupāda. You have given me the wonderful Siksha gurus His Grace Caitanya Avatari Prabhu and Her Grace Rasamayi mātājī who guide me on day-to-day basis in all aspects of my life including the preaching mission.
I offer my prayers from the core of my heart to Supreme Lord in the form of Dhanvantari to protect you from all sides. I beg for your mercy and guidance throughout to carry out the Devotional Service and preaching with more and more enthusiasm.
Your insignificant son,
Amānī Gauracandra Dāsa
