 “The Supreme Personality of Godhead has the form of sac-cid-ananda-vigraha transcendental bliss, knowledge, and eternity. I offer my respectful obeisances unto Him, who turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains. Such is the mercy of the Lord.” [Caitanya-caritamrta Madhya 17.80]

Dear Guru Maharaja,

Please accept our humble obeisances at your divine lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace and all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

It is a daunting task to honor and glorify You in a few words as Your glories are unlimited. It is like showing torchlight to the Sun. The words and sentences just stop, and it becomes difficult to put the thoughts into words. Each and every moment of your life, you teach us by example. You never lose a single moment to glorify your spiritual master A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Any credit you receive for any service, you attribute it to Srila Prabhupada’s mercy.

Guru Maharaja, you have made all arrangements not only for your disciples but for humanity at large through your innovative ways of getting your association through your lectures, live internet broadcasts, Inquiries into Absolute, etc. In every activity of yours, you never fail to strengthen our commitment and conviction to Srila Prabhupada and ISKCON. In a very exemplary way, you teach us the mood of becoming an eternal disciple by displaying your unconditional pure love for Srila Prabhupada. Please Guru Maharaja, instill in our hearts a drop of that mood of servitorship for Your Divine Grace as you have for Srila Prabhupada.

Please accept our hearty gratitude by accepting and guiding us through the path of divine knowledge. Last but not least, your health is important for our tender spiritual life. We beg the mercy of Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha Krsna to keep you in best health for preaching all over the world. We pray at your divine lotus feet to always have your shelter despite our shortfall. Please bless us so that we can follow your instructions and become worthy servants of yours.

Your eternal servants,
Adhoksaja dasa, Deepika, Gopika and Gaurasundar
