Vyāsa-pūjā offering to His Divine Grace Jayapatākā Goswami Śrīla Ācāryapāda.
Appearing in direct disciplic line,
The right to preach on God’s behalf in thine.
To make your purpose and your interest mine-That is my duty.
Within this world, I can no worth in any action find
Than falling at your lotus feet, eternally resigned,
Begging your mercy!
In the nestle of your lotus feet,
The soul, whose sufferings are great, Refines his long-forgotten place, Regains his former beauty.
You are a mine of Grace Divine,
You are an ocean of mellow sweet,
In love of Kṛṣṇa all complete - Pure devotee.
Falling at your lotus feet,
I humbly beg your forgiveness for any offences and cry for your mercy,
Your servant,
Citraketu Dāsa
