Vyāsa-pūjā 2024

Raṇacora Govinda dāsa (Bangalore - Sri Jagannath Mandir Seshadripuram - India)

Hare Kṛṣṇa Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga! All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!

A disciple like me is always unqualified to glorify his spiritual master. Even though your glories are unlimited, I am incapable of glorifying you.

But still it is the duty of every disciple to glorify his spiritual master. Hence, I will make a humble attempt.

You are the embodiment of mercy of Lord Nityānanda. (Nitāi-kṛpa pradāyine). Otherwise, how it is possible that you can give shelter to so many fallen souls across this globe? You are freely distributing that mercy of Lord Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya, without considering the qualification of the recipient. You take so much risk to fulfill the order of your spiritual master and by taking the karma of so many fallen souls, eventually taking up so much inconveniences to yourselves. Your determination in distributing the mercy of Lord Nityānanda is without parallel.

In spite of so much of bodily inconveniences, you are aloof to the bodily platform and remain in the transcendental platform. Your desire to see the TOVP project completed is soon going to be a reality. The amount of dedication and hardships that you endured to develop the holy dhāma of Śrī Māyāpur dhāma is beyond words to describe.

I would like to beg for a drop of that unlimited mercy of Lord Nityānanda, flowing through you, by which I may get the seed of devotional service. I do not see any hope for me to advance in the spiritual path without your mercy.

Guru Mahārāja, I sincerely pray for your mercy so that I can have unflinching faith in guru, sādhu, śāstra and Kṛṣṇa and to overcome the various obstacles in the path of bhakti.

My insignificant prayers to Lord Narasiṁhadeva, Rādhā Mādhava and Pañca-tattva so that you can continue to strongly take the mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda forward.

Your Insignificant Servant,

Raṇacora Govinda Dāsa
