"I bow my head in eternal obeisance to my Gurudev, the best of acharyas,
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj. He is the ever vigilant, stalwart
guardian of the current of pure devotion whose highest form flows from our
most worshippable Sri Rupanuga Guru-varga in their exclusive dedication to
Mahabhav, Srimati Radharani."

"I offer my obeisance unto my lord, Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar
Dev-Goswami Maharaj, whose speech is most pleasing; whose divine form is
adorned with garments the colour of the newly-risen sun; who is an abode of
intense, ecstatic devotion; who is the sadhus' sole choice; who is an ocean
of renunciation and knowledge; who is a treasure-house of perfect
conclusions; who is resplendent with pure devotion; who is the best of Srila
Saraswati Thakur's followers; who is the giver of all good; who is the
leading general of the tridandi-sannyasis; and who is my sole
shelter."
vaisnavera pada-dhuli tahe mora snana-keli
tarpana mora vaisnavera nama
vaisnavera uchchhista tahe mora mano-nistha
vaisnavera namete ullasa
"The feet dust of the Vaishnavs is where I sport and take bath, Vaishnavs'
name is the water oblation. My mind is intently fixed upon the remnants of
Vaishnavs, and I am elated at the name of Vaishnavs."
gangara-parasa ha-ile paschate pavana
darsane pavitra kara—ei tomara guna
"If the Ganges touches someone, they are purified some time later; but one
becomes purified just by seeing you, O Vaishnava Thakur. Such is your power."
