—Aniruddha

On the appearance day of His Divine Grace Sri Srimad A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupad, 1969.

I offer my most humble obeisances to His Divine Grace, who by His Pure Devotion has picked us up from the ocean of suffering. I, myself, have no taste for this everlasting platform of eternal blissful servitude. My heart is so polluted and full of dirt. So, I pray that my mind be fixed up at the Lotus Feet of my Spiritual Master, so I may know how to serve Radha Krishna. His Mercy is truly beyond our conception. All Glories to His Divine Grace, he is always engaged in trying to deliver all of us, the fallen souls, to the platform of Krishna Consciousness.
