Smriti Singh (Mayapur - India)

Hare Kṛṣṇa, Guru Mahārāja!

Daṇḍavat praṇāma.

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

All Glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda and to You!


nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācārya-pādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe


Guru Mahārāja, you are my protector.

I have learned from you that in every situation, your only desire is the happiness of Guru and Kṛṣṇa. No matter how much pain you endure, you always say that you want the happiness of Śrīla Prabhupāda and Kṛṣṇa. From you, I have realized that external circumstances are merely at the physical level, but our true, eternal happiness lies in the happiness of Kṛṣṇa and Guru.

Guru Mahārāja, in life, there are difficulties and problems that no one else may understand or resolve. But just by praying to you and expressing them to you, they are miraculously solved. The love and mercy I have received from you is something I have never experienced anywhere else.

Through your ācāra (conduct), words, and even your glance, you transform the lives of countless devotees. You are undoubtedly an intimate associate of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

Please bless me so that I may:

  • Serve devotees to my full capacity.

  • Properly represent ISKCON.

  • Follow the four regulative principles and chant sixteen rounds steadily.

  • Study Śrīla Prabhupāda’s scriptures deeply.

  • Spread the nectar of Kṛṣṇa consciousness in every situation.

  • Serve you and Śrīla Prabhupāda while always remembering Guru and Gaurāṅga.

Please accept me as your disciple for life after life.

Your sheltered disciple and daughter,
Smṛti Singh
