Dearest Guru Maharaja,
Please accept my most humble obeisances at the dust Your divine lotus feet! All glories to You and all glories to Your beloved Spiritual master- His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada!
On this auspicious occassion of Your Vyasa-puja celebrations, please accept my humble offering for my purification. I am eternally grateful to you, my mentors (Her Grace Prema-tarangini Mataji and His Grace Sacikumar Prabhu) and all the loving vaisnava Godbrothers and sisters in my life, for all the guidance, love and care extended to me. I am very grateful for the valuable mentoring carefully extended to me, under your expert guidance for my progression in Krsna consciousness. Just like when a baby is sick and does not want to take bitter medicine, the loving mother carefully mixes the bitter medicine in suitable foods and bestows it for its cure, I am very grateful to you and my mentors for lovingly bestowing the rightful instructions and guidance, in sizable portions, to expertly address my diseased condition. I pray that I can humbly and lovingly surrender unto You and earnestly accept and execute your instructions for my purification.
Thank you dear Guru Maharaja for everything you are painstakingly doing for all of us, so that fallen souls like myself can earnestly take to and progress in Krsna consciousness. Me and my family have been very fortunate and are very grateful to You and all the wonderful vaisnavas, for being able to attend the last two yatras to Mayapura dhama and Vrndavana dhama and we are eagerly looking forward to attending future yatras for our purification. Thank You very much, dear Guru Maharaja for regularly blessing us with your valuable time, guidance and association, for providing us with so many tools, opportunities and resources – audio recordings, question and answers, website and so many other means of communication, to be always connected with You to help me progress in my purification.
On this auspicious occassion of Your divine appearance day, I sincerely beg and pray to the supremely merciful Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu to kindly bestow upon you and all your loving disciples, all His causeless mercy, good health and strength to earnestly serve and propagate the mission and vision of our beloved guru parampara.
Thanking You,
Aspiring to Be Your humble servant,
Rohini-nandana dasa
