nāma oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale

My Dear Guru Mahārāja,
I offer my most respectful and humble obeisance’s at the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda and all glories to your loving divine grace.
All glories to your appearance day Guru Mahārāja!!!
On this auspicious day of your divine descent into this world, the heart blossoms with thoughts of gratitude to Your lotus feet.
There are not enough words to describe how lucky I feel to have your causeless mercy even after being so fallen. Knowing that I have got your blessings is what keeps me going in my Kṛṣṇa Consciousness through challenges.
Although I hardly get to see you in person, I feel my love for you getting stronger and stronger day by day as I recite your praṇāma mantra daily, and attend your Facebook live lectures, and pray to Lord Narsimha Dev for your protection and well being. Your heart felt lectures and quotes have been my ultimate guide this year and magically enough it seems like your daily quotes and the lectures I choose to listen to are directed to answering my personal questions.
I pray that I can be of any service to you and Śrīla Prabhupāda.
I pray to remain a speck of dust at your lotus feet eternally.
On this auspicious day, I implore you to continue to shelter me and bless me to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness more and more.
Your Servant and Sheltered Disciple,
Rohit Singh
