Lead my life on the path of right conduct, as you preached. Attain salvation. Lead a life of high morals and ethics. Be respectful to and take good care of Guru Mahäräj and elderly people. HABe helpful to and of service to others. Be in close touch with the right spiritual Guru. Follow the instructions and orders of the Guru. Oh! Vitaräga Paramätmä, I am aware that your teachings advise against asking anything from you. In spite of this, I wish to be of service to you at your feet for this life and all my future lives. Oh!
