Hare Kṛṣṇa my beloved dearest Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my most humble and respectful obeisances unto the dust of Your Divine lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to Your Holiness.
Guru Mahārāja, we wish you a very happy 75th appearance day to you. Your Holiness is sent by the Lord to Śrīla Prabhupāda to deliver millions of fallen souls and bring them in the lotus feet of the Lord. Your name Gourdon John speaks about your mission to serve Śrīla Prabhupāda, which means Gaur dhan Jan, that is your holiness have appeared to distribute the name of Gaurāṅga and bring them in His lotus feet.
Guru Mahārāja, your holiness is setting a legacy for generations to come by preaching by your example. Your completing daily sādhana, daily reading of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam before sleeping, honored with Bhakti-śāstrī, Bhakti-vaibhava, Bhakti-vedānta degrees, in spite of immense health issues, GBC meetings and many other responsibilities given by Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Guru Mahārāja, sometimes due to my heavy conditioning, my mind doubts Your Holiness unnecessarily. I would like to beg forgiveness unto your lotus feet and seek causeless mercy to develop a bit of serving attitude in your lotus feet.
Thank you, Guru Mahārāja for accepting me as your disciple and connecting this fallen soul to Kṛṣṇa. I beg prayers unto Your Holiness to kindly bless me to serve Your Holiness by chanting attentively, reading and hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and engaging in preaching activities (without envy and pride) for your pleasure.
Guru Mahārāja, I pray to Lord Narasiṁhadeva and Lord Dhanvantari for your good health so that Your Holiness can fulfill the desire of Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura Prabhupāda.
Your servant,
Mahāsundarī Gaurāṅgī Devī Dāsī
