Sukhavaha devi dasi
Dear Gurudeva,
On the occasion of your auspicious appearance day, please accept your humble disciple Sukhavaha devi dasi’s sincere obeisances.
I respectfully offer obeisances unto you! I kneel down at your lotus feet, so that I can forever touch the dust of your lotus feet. You are the representative of Krsna, the faithful and pure transmitter of Srila Prabhupada’s teachings. You are the representative of the sampradaya, the embodiment of transcendental knowledge that is pure and essential. You have set an example for us by providing devotional services with all your heart and soul!
Dear father! In the fragmented past, I was lost and confused, deeply immersed in it. Why is life? My mind is disturbed by material desires and activities, and I am powerless to restrain my mind. Pray to the Lord! Spiritual master, you have given me the opportunity to constantly grasp your lotus feet.
On May 8th of this year, with your kindness, I became an insignificant member of your parampara. How lucky I am to be your child, even though I am insignificant and my service is full of mistakes and flaws. You light up my eyes with the torch of knowledge, and in your guidance and teachings, children who are prone to making mistakes are enlightened. You give me firm confidence and the strength to move forward. With the help of the contributors, I have gradually made progress and improvement, and I am willing to do whatever I am asked to do.
Dear father! You always serve your spiritual master Srila Prabhupada in absolute truth, possessing 100% Krsna consciousness. Please have mercy and shelter on me, so that I can always be in the mission of serving you, abide by my vows, stabilize my mind, and adhere to norms and principles. Please let me always strive to focus on your lotus feet!
Dear Gurudeva, I respectfully offer obeisances unto you! Happy birthday to my dear spiritual father! Wishing you good health and smooth preaching!
Hare Krsna!
Your humble disciple,
Sukhavaha devi dasi
