(1) His holy feet are worshipped by those intelligent people (sumedhasaḥ) who are extremely fortunate. He is the carrier of the inner significance of Śrī Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s devotional conclusions, which are the ultimate purifiers for the age of Kali. His holy feet is a sacred place of pilgrimage and a treasure house of all cherishable virtues. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(2) Endowed with a pleasing nature of simplicity and generosity, he is verily a hero, who subdues the enemies of the Lord’s devotees with an anger that resembles the deep rumble of chariot-wheels. At the same time, he is an unrestricted ocean of mercy for the innocent jīvas. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(3) His lofty physical stature shines with a radiance of molten gold. He is like a beautiful lion with a slender waist and a broad chest. His lotus feet are exquisitely beautiful and worthy of worship by good-looking demigods. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(4) Being firmly established in supreme dedication towards his Guru, he is the possessor and the upholder of the essence of scriptures. He is spontaneously inclined to serve the supremely wonderful descending flow of eternal truth, and his lotus feet are served in all respects by distinguished scholars who are free from pride. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(5) As a renunciant, he is skilful and wise in the propagation of the transcendental science of devotion, and the best in class in the society of leading renunciants. For the fallen souls, his lotus feet are an infallible boat of refuge. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(6) Sincere in his vows towards Śrīla Prabhupāda, he is fully indifferent towards the lures of women, money and fame, and the rightful possessor of the treasure of Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mercy. He sings the glories of the lotus feet of Śrīla Prabhupāda throughout the world. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(7) Always keen on drinking the nectarean descriptions of transcendental truths, he offers greatest respects at the lotus feet of Śrīla Bhaktirakṣaka Śrīdhara Dev Gosvāmi Maharaja. He is protector of the dignity of greatest fortune of the age of Kali, that of the gift of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(8) Immersed in the transcendental mellows of the Holy Name he appears like a golden moon. Like a true wellwisher, he destroys misery with his cooling words of guidance. He is eternally in high regards towards the worshipable lotus feet of Śrīla Bhaktipramoda Purī Goswāmi Mahārāja. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(9) As the foremost amongst the travelling renunciant sannyāsīs, he is the spiritual master of the universe. Only by the order of his Gurudeva Śrīla Prabhupāda, he accepted Bhārāta (India) as his home field of service. And through his divine presence, he particularly purified the holy place of Śrīraṅgapatna (Āgrima Raṅga - The first among the three Raṅga kṣetra islands on the Kāveri River). I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(10) He is graced with an instinctive characteristic of a keen sense of philosophical judgement, just like that of Śrī Svarūpa Damodara Goswāmi. He constantly glorifies the greatness of the associates and the followers of Śrī Rūpa Goswāmi. His each and every step is in perfect harmony with the teachings of the most dear of Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura, i.e. Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.

(11) Just like the cātaka bird that always awaits for the rain from the sky to quench it’s thirst, as a servant of the lotus feet of Jagadguru Svāmi Śrila Bhaktigaurava Narasiṅgha Mahāraja the most dear of Śrīla Prabhupāda, I eternally thirst for a drop of the waters that wash his lotus feet. I perpetually make my obeisances unto the lotus feet of my divine master Śrīla Svāmi Bhakti Gaurava Narasiṅgha Mahārāja.
