(Jagadguru Diwas commemorates the date on January 14, 1957, when Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj received the title of ‘Jagadguru’ from the Kashi Vidvat Parishat. This year it is being celebrated in Golok Dham, New Delhi, India.)
Bali, shri gurudev kripal ki.
A devotee feeling deep respect and gratitude for his Spiritual Master says, “I offer my everything to my gracious Guru.”
Jinke divya vachan suni chutat, granthi avidya jal ki.
By listening to his divine teachings, the knot of one’s mayic ignorance is cut asunder.
Jinke varad-hasta ke sanmukha, chal na chaal kalikaal ki.
After being blessed with his grace, one is not affected in the least by the influence of Kaliyuga (the age of darkness).
Jinke banat bigari sakat nahin, mayashakti gupal ki.
After becoming his servant, one remains absolutely safe from God’s unconquerable power, Maya.
Jinke yugal charan parasat man, pavat rati nandalal ki.
By merely touching his lotus-feet with devotion, one is blessed with the love of Shri Krishna.
Lakhat ‘Kripalu’ anugrah guru ke, leela ladli lal ki.
Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj says in the words of a devotee, “Through the grace of my Guru, I am able to drink the nectar of the ever-new divine leelas of Shri Radha-Krishna.”
