Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to you, Guru Mahārāja, on this auspicious occasion of Your Holiness’s 76th Vyāsa Pūjā. I pray to Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva for your health and well-being.
I grew up listening to Your Holiness’s lectures and hearing about your glories from my parents, and I was always awestruck. I feel very fortunate to have become your disciple. During these trying times in this material world, you give us strength to serve Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu with unwavering faith. Guru Mahārāja, you are the Victory Flag and the toughest General in Śrīla Prabhupāda’s army. Your dedication and determination to fulfill Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission inspire us all to do more.
Guru Mahārāja, you are like the giant banyan tree, offering shade to all your disciples from the scorching heat of material existence. I feel deep affection and gratitude toward you, Guru Deva, and may your divine glories continue to flourish. May your teachings eternally inspire nara-dhāmas like me to take shelter at your lotus feet, and may our spiritual family grow tenfold.
Your spiritual son,
Mādhava Vraja Kṛṣṇa Dāsa
