Plans seem good.

Association seems good.

Planning to adjust the plans as the situations develop sounds good.

We are little, but definitely members of Srila Prabhupada’s ISKCON, no?

Hope your health is practical.

We hope to learn more than we teach.

Will participants in the visit have joined the programs in Chile and Peru?

Joined daily Japa Joe symposium?

Written to this Blog with Priority Codes from Japa Joe and anveSaka?

We want vapuh association of those with whom we have vani association, no?

What do think of anVesaka?

We were thinking of starting a more esoteric WhatsApp Group that we could manage more actively, directly.

99% of the comments are that this WhatsApp community is much better than Twitter was.

Sankirtan Party looking for Sita to deliver the Ring.

Headed, agtSP, to Gaura arati.

Intense, wonderful, program at University of Madrid, Complutence, today.

Oxford, Sorbonne of Spain with Yadu Swami, Jayanta Das and one very nice Mataji.

Looking at Blog posts.

Will try to answer after arati.

Still in Brihuega Iskcon Spain.

Health 90% for such an old horse.

Hare Krishna, Gurumaharaja! Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

It’s been very enlivening for us to see all the videos of your travels. Especially seeing you at Govardhan Ecovillage. We hope to go there someday (externally and or just internally). We have a long journey ahead…trudging along and barely getting by. Being a witness to your journey has been a wonderful blessing in our lives and beyond that..a North Star and a constant reminder of the real purpose of human life.

We have been working on a devotional album for a few years now and it is finally out on all the streaming platforms. We chose our favorite prayers that we sing every morning and arranged them with guitar, percussion and piano mainly. It started out just as a personal project to go deeper into these songs and to know them by heart and incorporate them into our musical creative life. But then I helped build a recording studio for a world renowned recording artist and Ram Das follower (sweet devil). Lots of natural light and decent vastu which is really hard to find in a recording studio. Anyway, we started recording with him and he liked it so he really helped us out and is now turning his fan base on to it. We then found a well established devotee record label in Russia called 108 Records Global and they have released the album and have been a huge support.

Maharaja, this is all because of your mercy and that is why we have dedicated it to you. It has been a very exciting service and our intention with it is to attract young people to KC and spread the glories of these most perfect songs.

Of course there is mode of passion and it’s all put through like a mode of passion filter (music industry/promotion) and it does feel strange to put these songs out with a picture of us on the cover so please let us know what you think and if this is sacrilegious or perverted in any way. (Sadly, Guruastikam had to be cut down to only 3 of the verses.)

…no one ever finished an album, they just stopped working on it. Many more to come, we hope…

Thank you, Gurumaharaja.

Your aspiring servants,

Nitisara Dasa, Anadi, Yamuna and Madhavi Priya

P.S. A lot of good progress at Boise temple. I’ll give an update on that soon. Here is the album:

HpS-ASA - We have been, agtSP, running since we left Houston in (?) December. ✈️🐎🐎🛺🦽🚗🚍

Just now can open -some- mail!

Good news from you.

Thank you

How is Sripad Murari das' Buddy... Body?

Everybody's Buddy?

Will approach the link with great caution!

In Madrid, Brihuega.

The sky is falling.

The armies of Islam are approaching.

🌼

July 4th in Boise?

New Biharvan?

The ABCs (American Bhagavata Curriculum)?

What to do, what to say

When there is only the Holy Name?

All the books are there to say

Inspire me to take, to heart, the Name.

Chant with your voice, clap your hands

Use any instrument, but do not shadow the Names.

He is all that is, and I am to blame

When my citta (consciousness) does not rest upon the Name.

Blame is not what I understand is right

When a baby learns to walk, it is natural to go off-site.

So, try again as there is no loss

And the gain is divinely virtuous.

From realisation I do not write

These are my contemplations on Bhagavatam’s sunlight.

This Sunlight is what I need

‘Cos false ego took my creed.

Namacarya Dasa I try to be

With vaisnava seva the life is set free.

In this way I play the big drum

Hopefully not staying spiritually numb.

PAOHO

I hope you are well. I understand that you are currently in Spain and will be traveling to South America in February. It will be a pleasure to see you after so many years.

HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna. AgtSP.! Thank you for your letter. It means a lot to us.

We are currently in Radha Kunda, in a wonderful unheated cement ashrama. Built and maintained for the Anjana Suta Acadamy by H. G.Krsna-svarupa Das.

It is 5-degrees Celcius sometimes here!

AQI usually over 150.

Lot of distress.

Meeting many kinds of people.

Also LOT of benefits!!

Now it is 12.40AM

Trying to squeeze is some Blog mail during this packed. packed schedule.

Yes!!! So nice to touch our feet in Peru again and see everyone.

Indira Sakti dd and I are on vacation after a very demanding academic year, and we will be traveling to the Northern Andes tomorrow to document a place that is part of a research project I am working on. During your Vyasapuja, I read a verbal offering that I will refrain from publishing here, considering that it is truly the privilege of your oldest and/or closest disciples. My wife and I remember you often, especially during that day in the company of our spiritual brothers and sisters and your well-wishers.

For now, I would like to ask you a question about something I recall hearing you mention: theoretically and practically, how is it possible to guide knowledge to meditation (from jñana to dhyana)? Or, how can we cleanse the "mirror of the mind" so that jñana is naturally reflected as dhyana?

I understand that it is not merely a process of cognitive deepening, but rather an intermediate stage between dry knowledge and theorizing, and the awakening of elevated emotions through and for Krishna. Am I correct, or am I simply reducing it to a linear scheme (jnana-dhyana-bhakti)?

I look forward to your response and thank you in advance. We hope to see you soon, Gurudeva.

Your servant

Gandharva das

HpS - NoI 7 explains following the process to liberation. Brahmana.

Eight explains how it goes to Raganuga Bhakti.

I hope to look at Text 8 today and make more comment.

Basically it is nothing more than chanting .... as prescribe by Gur. SPsays get up early and chant. Chant in Sankirtan, Japa, during Mangala arati, Read SB, in front of our dieties etc.

That process matures gradually.

Let us rea 8 and talk later!!!

Time to start our daily Japa Joe 16-rounds before Mangala arati online effort!!!

Thank you again and again. Good luck with your docmentry.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to H. H. Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj. All glories to H. H. Yadunandan Maharaj. All glories to the super devotees accompanying Guru Maharaj. Please accept our humble obeisances at Your sweet lotus feet.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj,

The matajis were still crying in the regular SB class at 6.30pm....we shared our realizations....Indeed...Srila Prabhupada has been invited by our Guru Maharaj to be with us...We wish to serve our Spanish devotees in Spain ...then at Peru...as Guru Maharaj has always wanted...kindly give us the mercy to serve you better and better...Srimad Bhagavatam has brought all of us together....

It was Guru Maharaj who gave us the inspiration to read the SB daily....and today Guru Maharaj has inspired the members of the reading group of Manipur beyond boundaries...thank you Guru Maharaj...the Matajis love for you has surpassed mine...they practiced, they meditated, they chanted, they fasted for the entire offering, broke fast after the offering, served the Vaishnavas by sponsoring the prasadam after the cultural programme, they absorbed the SB...we are now in SB canto 5 for morning session...and Canto 3 in evening session....we are enthusiastic to serve the devotees all over the world...with your mercy Guru Maharaj.

Kindly forgive any inconveniences on our part...please accept our humble offering . Thank you once again dearest Guru Maharaj.

Your insignificant servant,

Sarad Gaurangi Devi Dasi.

HpSwami ASA - Now it is very enlivening to see you here in Radha-kunda.

Thank you.

Were there any comments about your performance from directors or members of JHL Dance Academy?

It was so nice.

We need a video with a narration of what is happening and being spoken in the dance in vernacular language, no?
