Sundara Nitai dasa

My dear Guru Maharaja,

Hare Krsna! Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to your divine grace. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
srimate romapada-svamin iti namine

On this auspicious day of your Vyasa Puja, I want to make a humble attempt to write this offering even though I don’t have any qualification.

During the Dvaraka yatra, you used the metaphor of seeing water under the oil to deepen our understanding and relationship with Krsna. I do not have any qualification to look beneath the oil yet you have always encouraged me to carefully read and follow the teaching of Srila Prabhupada so that at some point I can get the glimpse of water. This is possible only by your causeless mercy, hearing your lectures, through your association and of other vaisnavas.I feel very fortunate to have received your shelter.

During my initiation, you asked me to follow the instructions of Srila Prabhupada throughout my life. You have dedicated your life following of instructions of Srila Prabhupada very carefully. You are a great inspiration and role model for me. I pray for your kind mercy and guidance to help me make a humble attempt to follow in your foot steps.

Thanking you,

Your aspiring servant,
Sundara Nitai dasa
