Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias Guru Maharaj, me reporto al blog después de unos meses ausente, estoy aprendiendo a cuidar mi cerebro con medicación y acudo a mis citas con el neurólogo.

Actualmente mi proyecto más importante son mis hijos estoy trabajando con mis hijos en su educación en casa utilizando la pedagogía Charlotte Manson y Waldorf en conciencia de Krishna utilizando lo que funciona para cada niño, lo adaptamos a su necesidades y talentos. Soy honesta cada uno de mis 5 hijos son completamente diferentes pero entre hermanos se ayudan mutuamente y eso vuelve motivador el educar en casa que mis hijos gustan y desean aprender de Krishna y me recuerdan la importancia del Sadhana y los buenos hábitos además en la semana mi esposo enseña Sanskrito, Música y lectura a nuestros hijos.

Nueva Govardhan se encuentra activo creciendo cada mes actualmente tenemos una granja con animales exóticos que apoyan a tener una rutina diaria con los niños, alimentar, contemplar, aprender biología y empatía con los seres vivos en conciencia de Krishna.

Próximamente en un año publicaré un cómic con ilustraciones mías y 1 libro de trabajo en español, mi idea es mostrar los pasatiempos de Krishna a la audiencia infantil como experiencia propia como madre es difícil encontrar material atractivo en habla española para las familias Hare Krishna.

Aún pienso cuando lo conocí en persona y platicamos con mi esposo en Monterrey hace 14 años ¿cuál es mi naturaleza? Intenté por años descubrir mi naturaleza definitivamente no soy Vaisya ni Ksatrya hahaha, mi talento se encuentra en el dibujo quizá soy muy sudra por usar mis manos y lápices de carboncillo en lienzos pero me hace muy feliz y quizá puedo aportar un poco a ISKCON.

Estamos construyendo una cabaña grande de dos pisos es un gran proyecto multifuncional para proporcionar un espacio educativo y de convivencia, es difícil encontrar personas dispuestas a trabajar pero Krishna nos bendice con la energía de Lakshmi y la construcción va marchando maravillosamente.

Nandita se encuentra bien aún tengo miedo de acercarme a la vaca pero cuando tengo oportunidad le atiendo a distancia. También conseguimos comprar 3 pavoreales adultos son majestuosos logré que naciera una cría de ellos.

Mucho trabajo y una mente aplicada es lo que podemos compartir es un refugio para no estar en chismes o situaciones absurdas :) Agrego agradecimiento por recibir a mi esposo Gadadhar en Chile y ver nuestro pequeño video de Nueva Govardhan !

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Please accept my humble obeisances, Guru Maharaj. I am checking in on the blog after an absence of a few months; I am learning to take care of my brain with medication and am attending my appointments with the neurologist.

HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, have hearing aids and are 75% senile. 😆

Jagannatha Das Babaji was carried around in a basket by one of his more stout disciples.

Currently, my most important project is my children. I am working on their homeschooling using Charlotte Mason and Waldorf pedagogies within Krishna consciousness, utilizing what works best for each child and adapting the approach to their individual needs and talents.

To be honest, each of my five children is completely different, but the siblings help one another. This makes homeschooling motivating; my children enjoy and desire to learn about Krishna, and they remind me of the importance of *sadhana* and good habits.

Additionally, during the week, my husband teaches Sanskrit, music, and reading to our children.

New Govardhan is active and growing every month; we currently have a farm with exotic animals that helps establish a daily routine with the children—feeding and observing the animals, and learning biology and empathy for living beings within Krishna consciousness.

In about a year, I plan to publish a comic book featuring my own illustrations and a workbook in Spanish. My idea is to present Krishna’s pastimes to a young audience; based on my own experience as a mother, it is difficult to find engaging Spanish-language material for Hare Krishna families.

HpS/ASA - Have you seen the "Amar Chitra Katha" comic books? You can Google them. Some people just changed the speech bubbles into their local language.

Do you know other Latin devotees who are doing home schooling for kids? Candra mukhi Devi Das from Peru?

I still think back to when I met you in person and spoke with you alongside my husband in Monterrey fourteen years ago. I wondered then, "What is my nature?" I spent years trying to discover it; I am definitely neither *Vaisya* nor *Kshatriya*—hahaha! My talent lies in drawing. Perhaps I am very much a *Sudra* because I use my hands and charcoal pencils on canvas, but it makes me very happy, and perhaps I can contribute a little something to ISKCON.

HpS/ASA - Brahmana, Ksatriya, Vaisya, Sudra, Lady x Gentleman. It seems to us you are a Lady. A Mother. A Mother with a lot of Brahminical inclination.

Lady, Wife, Mother, Sudra (Art)-Brahmana-Brahmana-Brahmana.

That is Daivi Varna Ashrama Dharma (DVAD). Four Principles.

What about Bhagavata Dharma? How is your Japa?

We are building a large, two-story cabin—a major multifunctional project designed to provide a space for education and community interaction. It is difficult to find people willing to work, but Krishna blesses us with Lakshmi’s energy, and the construction is progressing wonderfully.

Nandita is doing well; I am still afraid to get close to the cow, but whenever I have the chance, I care for her from a distance. We also managed to buy three adult peacocks—they are majestic—and I even succeeded in getting a chick from them.

Hard work and a focused mind—that is what we have to share; it is a sanctuary away from gossip or absurd situations. :) I also want to express my gratitude for the welcome my husband, Gadadhar, received in Chile and for the chance to share our little video of New Govardhan!

Your servant, Anandamaya Devi Dasi (my apologies if any words change when this letter is posted; I am writing this from my iPhone due to connection issues).

HpS - Thank you!

Our Calendar proposes we visit Mexico for Two Goswamis Festival. January 8th - 10th. Maybe we could visit Monterrey then.

Cow is probably more afraid of you than you are of her?

Very best wishes for all this work.

How is your Japa.

We will start reading Madhya Lila; 20.151 onwards up to verse 20.190

(Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu instructs Sanatana Goswami)

The class starts at 7:30 am ~ Houston Time

Thank you to all devotees for their dedicated service to ASA SB workshop.

H. G. Nikunja Bihari Prabhu will help us with Spanish translation seva for Maharaja's class and reading notes of CC.

H. G. Mitravinda Mataji will help us with seva of back up translator in case there are technical difficulties.

Maharaja, thank you for engaging everyone in reading systematically books of Srila Prabhupada's.

Por Favos Acepte mis mas humildes y respetuosas reverencias , .

todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada y al movimiento de Snkirtan.

Gurudeva continuamos mejorando poco a poco nuestro Sankirtana inspirado en su ejemplo , es una gran oportunidad ser parte de este movimiento y siempre podemos ver la misericordia asi como usted nos a guiado en la vida , debido a que somos muy limitados y siempre cometo errores siento vergüenza escribirle y prefiero no molestar , pero me gusta leer sus respuestas y estar asociándome con algunos hermanos espirituales mas maduros y estables .

actualmente continuamos con comedores escolares, y este semestre empezamos con actividades con Nueva Govardhan A.C ,, tenemos dos tipos de relaciones con las escuelas una es a nivel comercial soy proveedor de alimentos. y la otra es con la Asociación Civil Nueva Govardhan , , el semestre pasado teníamos 2 escuelas y fue muy intenso y decidimos solo enfocarnos en el mejor lugar donde podemos hacer Sankirtana con autorizaciónde la institución y podemos construir actividades con los estudiantes.

después de su ultima visita. a Montemorelos hace ya varios años se a logrado avanzar en construir un espacio adecuado para educación y con autonomía para fines de la misión, uno de los fines de NG es la protección de las vacas , etc , y tener una experiencia apreciativa de visitantes , decidimos funcionar como un Santuario con fines educativos , vamos avanzados en desarrollar este proyecto de Sankirtana.

el Restaurante y Hostal continuan mejorando con ayuda de la familia , estudiamos Bhagavad Gita , y Mahabarta con los niños , adoramos Sri Jagannatha , Baladeva y Subadra , por su misericordia podemos continuar , .

nuestra participación en ISKCON con su santidad Guru Prasad Swami aparentemente esta bien lo visite hace algunos días a Harlingen TX. , . honestamente soy poco activo en estos tiempos de la institución , la vida familiar una gran responsabilidad y tratamos de ofrendar nuestro trabajo para cultivar conciencia de Krishna.

agradezco Gurudeva por siempre ser un ejemplo que nos inspira nos gustaría invitarlo si fuera posible y si los hermanos espirituales mayores están de acuerdo.le comparto el calendario escolar y algunas fotos de los avances .

Please accept my most humble and respectful obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and the Sankirtan movement.

Gurudeva, we continue to improve our Sankirtan little by little, inspired by your example. It is a great opportunity to be part of this movement, and we can always see the mercy—just as you have guided us in life. Because I am very limited and constantly make mistakes, I feel embarrassed to write to you and prefer not to be a bother; however, I enjoy reading your replies and associating with more mature and stable spiritual brothers.

We are currently continuing with school meal programs, and this semester we began activities with Nueva Govardhan A.C.

We have two types of relationships with the schools: one is commercial—I am a food supplier—and the other is through the Nueva Govardhan Civil Association. Last semester we worked with two schools; it was very intense, so we decided to focus solely on the best location where we can conduct Sankirtan with the institution's authorization and develop activities with the students.

Since your last visit to Montemorelos several years ago, we have made progress in building a suitable space for education that operates autonomously for the mission's goals. One of NG's objectives is cow protection, among other things, as well as providing an enriching experience for visitors; we decided to operate as an educational sanctuary, and we are well underway in developing this Sankirtan project.

The restaurant and hostel continue to improve with the family's help. We study the Bhagavad Gita and the Mahabharata with the children, and we worship Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva, and Subhadra; it is by your mercy that we are able to carry on.

Our involvement with ISKCON under His Holiness Guru Prasad Swami seems to be going well; I visited him a few days ago in Harlingen, Texas. Honestly, I am not very active within the institution these days—family life is a major responsibility—but we try to offer our work to cultivate Krishna consciousness. I am grateful to you, Gurudeva, for always being an inspiring example. We would like to invite you, if possible and if the senior spiritual brothers agree. I am sharing the school calendar and some photos of the progress with you.

Sincerely, your aspiring servant, Gadadhara Gosai Das

HpS - AgtSP! Maybe we can stay in Nueva Govardhana when we visit ISKCON Mexico in January.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and the Sankirtan movement.

Gurudeva, we continue to gradually improve our Sankirtan, inspired by your example; it is a great opportunity to be part of this movement, and we can always see the mercy—just as you have guided us in life. Because I am very limited and constantly make mistakes, I feel embarrassed to write to you and prefer not to be a bother; however, I enjoy reading your replies and associating with more mature and stable godbrothers.

We are currently continuing with school feeding programs, and this semester we began activities with Nueva Govardhan A.C.

Your presence in this *yatra* has been very significant; projects related to your Sankirtan have developed very well thanks to the collaboration of godbrothers with whom we share common goals.

HpS - Jaya! JAYA!! J A Y A ! ! ! Hope there are photos and maps attached.

Just had a one hour palaver with H. G. Saranga-thakura Das about:

• Ships and sails and sealing-wax
• Cabbages and Kings
• And why the sea is boiling hot
• And whether pigs have wings.

(Lewis Carroll, ALICE IN WONDERLAND)

[1] Conclusion is that we should try to talk with Madan-gopal Das (?) about developing a Department of Media Resources in the Houston Temple since H. G. Anuttama Das is already inundated with projects. Then we can get back to AD with some more broad ideas for his perspective after that.

Of course, one very salient idea is that Cinematographer Pablo Rivas Plata and Journalist and Agriculturist Jagad Guru and Family et al become central in this effort.

[2] HpS/ASA focusing on the Bhakti Sarvabhauma Diploma in Sastric Education as inspiration for others to do the Bh. Vedanta Summary Examination in co-ordination with T. G. Radha-Krsna Das, Hari-lila Das, Srinivasa Das et al and then joining the regular Bh. Sarva diploma seems like a good plan.

[3] H. H. Romapada Swami is recovering very well from his brain stroke.

[4] ASA has given $1400 to the ISKCON Houston Temple in last few months, and expects to give another $700 before leaving on the [1] AYURVEDA - Asian Philosophy of Medicine in Tradition and Modernity, and [2] Latin America tours. SThD said that it is very much appreciated but not in the least necessary, HpS/ASA camping in Houston is very much appreciated always.

Srila

Prabhupada.

Thank you for your news.

In Bhagavad-gita Krsna comments that he is the ability in man.

Cultivate that in your students?

Do you study physical and mental development in humans by different ages in life?

Do they talk about celibacy?

Your English is good yet some spelling mistakes. Might try using Translate.google.com and then check it with your knowledge of English.

Any nice classmates or faculty or workmates?
