Without
the proper guidance of a self-realized soul, Therefore let me first offer my respectful obeisances unto my beloved gurudeva Srila Prabhupada my eternal spiritual master and guide. om
ajnana-timirandhasya jnananjana-salakaya "I was born in the darkest ignorance, and my guru, my spiritual master, opened my eyes with the torch of knowledge. I offer my respectful obeisances unto him."
nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale "I offer my respectful obeisances unto His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who is very dear to Lord Krishna, having taken shelter at His lotus feet." namas
te sarasvate deve gaura-vani-pracarine "Our respectful obeisances are unto you, O spiritual master, servant of Sarasvati Gosvami. You are kindly preaching the message of Lord Chaitanya-deva and delivering the Western countries, which are filled with impersonalism and voidism."
Mindful
of his desire to see all classes of human society included within the Vedic system
of spiritual upliftment, I humbly attempt to repeat his words on this website. He's come to defeat (nirvishesha) impersonalism and (sunyavadi) voidism, so often the trap of mundane religionists! A Brief Biography of Srila Prabhupada
