Hare Kṛṣṇa, Guru Mahārāja
Please accept my respectful obeisances unto Your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
All glories to Guru Mahārāja!
oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā
cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ
Dear most spiritual father,
On the most auspicious occasion of Your 76th Vyāsa-pūjā, we are praying to the Pañca-tattva, Rādhā-Mādhava and aṣṭa-sakhīs, Prahlāda-Nṛsiṁha and Śrīla Prabhupāda to protect You fully and shower upon You Their blessings and grant You sound health for many years to come, so that You can be in Their service always, in the way You desire.
You are the only shelter we have in this ocean of material existence. Your lotus feet and Your vāṇī are the only means of survival for us. You are continually teaching us through Your personal example as an ācārya what Kṛṣṇa has taught in the Bhagavad-gītā. Your love and service for Śrīla Prabhupāda is inspiring us at every moment of our life and teaching us how to serve and surrender to one's spiritual master. You are an ocean of compassion like Nityānanda Prabhu, protecting us from the waves of material existence. We are experiencing Your compassion and protection at every step of our life.
The way of Your loving reciprocation—especially when You gave us the permission and blessings for settling down in Śrīdhāma Māyāpur, and for our son's marriage and so many other things—cannot be put into words. Deep from the bottom of our hearts, we are indebted to You, Guru Mahārāja, for all Your care and love.
I beg forgiveness for any offenses with body, words, and mind unto You and the guru-paramparā, and to Rādhā-Mādhava, Pañca-tattva, and Prahlāda-Nṛsiṁha.
Your insignificant spiritual daughter,
Sudhamayī Īśvarī Devī Dāsī
Māyāpur
