Only after offering our respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet many, many times can we describe a few qualities of your transcendental glories.
Dear Srila Prabhupada, you are destroying completely the materialistic view of the mundane scientists with their chemical conception of life and consciousness. As far as we, your servants are concerned, we are no longer under the grip of this nonsense-that life comes from the void or life comes from matter. Under this material conception of life, we have suffered many, many births and deaths. Now, after hearing from you, we have been lifted to the Vaisnava platform, however unqualified we may be. In fact, your knowledge of the transcendence is so pure and potent, that after a few moments hearing the transcendental message of the Bhagavad-gita As It Is, we are prepared to challenge all of those rascals, who are disguised as learned religionists, scientists, teachers, etc.
Under your shelter, Lord Caitanya samkirtana movement has been spread all over the world. Soon everyone will know of the holy names. Because the spreading of the holy names is the desire of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Sri Krsna Caitanya, your spreading of the samkirtana movement is unchecked. Your Divine Grace has been empowered by the Supreme Lord to do so. And now we feel alive and happy just to try and follow your instructions, and to distribute the Lord's holy name and your transcendental books, which can deliver all fallen souls from the clutches of birth and death.
Every sane man and woman who reads your books will surrender to your lotus feet.
Dear servant of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami, you are the pure devotee of the Lord and the shelter of all conditioned souls. May our service and devotion to your lotus feet increase up to the limits of the endless ocean of your mercy upon us.
All Glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gaurahga! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
