Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to your glories services to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Gurudeva really I don’t have any qualification to write your vyāsa-pūjā offering. But, below are the few phrases from our previous ācāryas songs which teach us that how important you are to us, without your mercy nothing is possible in our life.
“yāhāra prasāde bhāi, e bhava tariyā yāi
kṛṣṇa-prāpti haya yāhā haite”
It is only through Your Grace, we can cross over material existence and obtain Kṛṣṇa
ei-bāro karuṇā karo vaiṣṇava gosāi
patita-pāvana tomā bine keho nāi
O Vaiṣṇvava Gosvāmī, please be merciful to me now, There is no one except you who can purify the fallen soul.
gurudeva!
kṛpa-bindu diyā, koro’ ei dāse, tṛṇapekhā ati hīna
sakala-sahane,
Gurudeva! By a drop of your mercy make this servant of yours more humble than a blade of grass.
“manascenna lagnam guror-aṅghri-padme
tataḥ kiṁ tataḥ kiṁ tataḥ kim tataḥ kiṁ”
But, if one’s mind is not centered upon the Guru’s holy feet,
What is the use? What then? What then? What then?
Guru Mahārāja your presence was always there in every important moment in my life either directly or indirectly, I feel so blessed for it and thank you very much. It is only because of your blessing baby boy was born safe. My heartfelt thanks to you Gurudeva, for everything that you had given me.
Guru Mahārāja, I pray to you to remind my mind always that how fallen I am and Kṛṣṇa is the only refuge. Also, we beg as a family to serve you always.
Please bless the new born (Mādhava), that he remains in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and serve you and Kṛṣṇa always.
I pray to Lord Narasiṁhadeva for good health and long life to serve Śrīla Prabhupāda.
prati-janme kori āśā caraṇera dhuli
I desire the dust of your holy feet in every birth I may take.
Your Spiritual daughter,
