Vyaspuja offering 2013

Prabhupadavani devi dasi

Srila Prabhupada You came to save the world
where we are are living spiritually dead
You called us cats and dogs and rascals without any fear
and that made us understand what we really are and dance in roar

Your enthusiasm to spread the holy name was just great
along with glorifying Your Lord by writing books at night
You are perfect acharya and Goswami
who defeated in a second all bogus swami

You are the one chosen by Your guru Bhaktisiddhantha
and subsequently got the title Bhaktivedantha
Your effulgent smile can attract the whole world
and the lotus feet dust can purify the three worlds

Your Divine Grace is real eternal hero of the heroes
who so mercifullay added 1 to our life's zeroes
Please accept my small offering at Your Lotus feet
and also make me get attached to Your Lotus feet

Dear Srila Prabhupada,
Please accept my respectful obeisances.
Today I am reflecting upon your causeless mercy. You have roamed the world collecting the broken glass of our worthless lives. Lord Caitanya has commissioned you for this miraculously task.
O most merciful Srila Prabhupada, you are repeatedly impressing upon us the intense urgency for Krsna consciousness. You clearly see the tragic waste of human lives as the world’s population rushes into the jaws of death.
At times you humbly appeal to us with the tearful pleas of a loving mother. At another time you may expose our ignorance with the roar of a lion. You have shown us how to utilize all that Lord Krsna has created, to awaken sleeping souls from the slumber of illusion. The world is addicted to drinking the poison of material enjoyment. You have given us the opportunity to realize, in this very life, Krsna, the embodiment of all rasas.
When will we wholeheartedly respond to your urgent call? Life is passing quite rapidly. How intensely are we calling out the holy names? How faithfully are we studying your sacred books? How determined are we to preach your mission to suffering humanity? How lovingly are we serving your beloved servants?
O Srila Prabhupada, you have entrusted us with the integrity of your divine legacy. I pray with all my heart that in a spirit of genuine humility we may be united in serving your sweet will. In pleasing you we will find shelter in the dust of your lotus feet. Let that dust be our ultimate aspiration, birth after birth.

Praying to become your faithful servant,
Gauranga Sundar Dasa
