VYASA PUJA 2025: Nityananda dasa

The 17th of August 2025 marked the auspicious appearance day of our divine spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada. Here at the B.L.I.S.S temple, devotees wrote heartfelt offerings to him. Here is the offering by His Grace Nityananda Dasa.

The time devotees had with you was short and sweet, not very much chance to greet.

But here you are, in your sound so sweet, chanting, preaching, dancing the whole world you are enhancing.

Some say you were short and sweet yourself, but little do we know about your true transcendental self.

Under your guidance we walk towards our goal, by your grace, we find the space, to love the Lord within our heart's embrace.

Short and sweet remains the time where we get to meet, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and fall, infront of His Lotus Feet.

By your mercy, the way for everyone you have given, your glories in this world will no longer be hidden.

You gave our daily quota to meet, chanting sixteen rounds, short and sweet.

Elevating the consciousness, ataining fearlesness, our hearts to Krishna’s lotus feet we press.

I'm keeping this poem short and sweet, your mission is not yet complete. Every town and every village will hear, the holy name to you so very dear.

Jaya Srila Prabhupada
