—Upendra das

I offer my most humbled prostrations at the Lotus Feet of my Spiritual Master out of Whose Causeless Mercy have sprung so many moon-like devotees of the Lord. And by Whose Merciful glance has allowed this crow-like person to associate with His Swan-like Self and thereby become saved from the mire of nescience.

I am eternally crying out in joy at this fact: that I am the servant of the servant of the servant of this Heralder of Chaitanya's Movement. He has spread the Holy Name throughout the width and breadth of this world. I pray to remain fixed as a particle of dust in some corner of my Master's house.

It was through my Guru Maharaj that all doubts were dispelled for final when He kindly recited this verse:

O Can anyone know the simple glory of the Spiritual Master? No, not one! It is said that the Lord is All Merciful and this is confirmed without doubt in the Personification of Mercy, the Vaishnava Acharya.

So 3 times a day All Glories, All Glories to my Beloved Prabhupada Whose business it is to simply sing Hare Krishna, dance, and distribute Holy Prasadam … and my business remains to simply accept that Prasadam.

humbly prays at His Feet
