Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las glorias a sus pies de loto

Agradecemos infinitamente por seguirnos guiando en este sendero y deseando siempre por su salud y ,misericordia.

Me disculpo por no estar tan presente este año, por temas de salud tuve que dejar de hacer servicio en el Yatra de Ciudad de Mexico de suseñorias Radha Madhan Gopal, me mudé a un pueblo tranquilo de otro estado. Sin embargo, seguimos con la adoración hacia las deidades en casa, cantamos 16 rondas todos los días. Tambien seguimos con la lectura del Srimad Bhagavatam

Tuve la misericordia de ir algunas veces al templo de CDMX y participar en el Ratha Yatra de Guadalajara Jalisco, junto con la oportunidad de asistir a Mangalarti.

Todas las glorias a los devotos reunidos.

Todas las glorias a sus pies de loto

HpS - Super!!! Krsna sees how big is the offering in our hands, maybe 20 dollars, but he also sees how much is left in our pockets. If you are giving all you have. He sees that. If He sees that we are keep 600 dollars for others in our pocket, He understands our current consciousness.

Do you best for Krsna.

There is no better service.

Dear spiritual master,

all glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Please accept my obeisances.

You wrote on WhatsApp:

"One devotee, our "student", is really good guy. Had a Ganga addiction.

In his state Medical Marijuana cultivation collective is legal.

So he started one and it had 75% effect of neutralizing his addiction."

Please, could you explain more?

I understand that there is a typing error Ganga-ganja, however, I do not understand the whole meaning of the message.

Thank you!

Your servant Namacarya Das

HpS - So, nice to hear, agtSP, from you.

Yes, Ganja.

I think, most of the story is above.

Most of our addictions are not chemical situation, no?

University of California explains that. They comment that the real problems are social or ...spiritual...

Even and ant wants to get intoxicated. They we eat honey until they cannot walk.

It is a natural situation of the soul.

Drink the unadulterated nectar of the holy names.

kinibo lutibo, hari nama rasa.

By the Names effect I shall become paralyzed.

Srila Prabhupada said, that if you want to get free from substance abuse, then take the time and effort to cook nice bhoga for your deities, and then honor it, regularly, deeply.

Works.

Hanging out with other people who are involved with Ganja while chanting Hare Krsna, we see the broad social ambience and we see the advantages and disadvanteges, and change our lives!

Any more specific questions, thoughts?

“I was born in the darkest ignorance, and my spiritual master opened my eyes with the torch of knowledge. I offer my respectful obeisances unto him.” 

I offer my respectful obeisances. We are undoubtedly very fortunate to have received the enormous gift of Sri Gaura Nitay for having ISKCON, by His divine grace Srila Prabhupada and it is a blessing to have you among the most beloved devotees, always being an example of the purpose of such a glorious movement. Without a doubt, your unfailing sadhana and devotion gives us a window into the joyful spirituality of Sankirtan. We can only be eternally grateful for your invaluable efforts.

Because you are great personalities, you can give me real knowledge. I am as foolish as a village animal like a pig or dog because I am merged in the darkness of ignorance. Therefore, please ignite the torch of knowledge to save me.

Your insignificant admirer AniruddhaKrsna Das.

HpS - Jaya! AgtSP.

Was so nice to see you in Mexico and hear a little of your Sankirtan.

Who, what were you in your last life time?

How would you have liked to have a different life in this lifetime?

Hare Krishna, Gurumaharaja

I would like to know your position on the “dream of the soul” and the “fall of the soul.”

It is a topic that a friend I met during Sankirtan is analyzing deeply.

Some questions to answer, these questions are:

Is the soul in the spiritual world and is it consciousness that descends to the material world?

Is the material world unreal, meaning that it has no existence other than the “dream of the soul”?

Is it like the soul going to the movies and the film it is watching is what is happening in the material world?

There are more questions, but this can serve as context to answer my friend's concerns and also help us to better understand this topic.

Thank you very much, Gurudeva.

My obeisances,

Piyari Mohan das

HpS - AgtSP. We have written about this a lot. What do you think about this?:

https://jayarama.us/media/topic/IziFNdDYJca05eoTLyOQ

Basically we understand that it is different for different people, but in most cases it is like sitting in the cinema watchin a movie and not conscious of who is even standing around us.

Like Socrate's analogy of the cave.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja.

Por favor acepte

mis más respetuosas reverencias.

¡Todas las

glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada!

Estimado

Gurudev, hoy celebramos el glorioso día de tu aparición en este mundo.

En esta obra de teatro, los papeles protagónicos se los dan a los famosos, bellos y ricos…

La mayoría somos contratados como extras, pero el papel que juegan las grandes almas es vital. Son los consejeros, los guías, los que sirven a todos sin ver diferencias…

¡La vida de un Mahatmas es gloriosa!, y ese Mahatma sigue existiendo cuando Su cuerpo muere.

Es tan importante Su presencia… mucho más de lo que yo alcanzo a apreciar.

Agradezco Su incansable servicio, Su admirable entusiasmo, y Su eterna bondad.

Que Sri Sri Radha Krsna lo sigan cobijando y le otorguen toda Su misericordia eternamente.

Su aspirante a sirviente

Priyasakhi Devi Dasi

HPS - Hare Krsna! 🙂 Thank you. Your service to your family, Church, Lord Caitanya, Srila Prabhupada is glorious.

Was so nice to get your association in Chile, just recently.

We are in the correct path, no?

We just have to learn how to not take detours. Travel faster. Return to our eternal forms.

Todas las gloria a Goura Nitay

Todas las gloria a Srila Prabhupada

Querido Gurudev, Después de varios meses aquí va mi reporte ya estoy en Lima de hecho nos vimos y acordé escribir por acá mi resumen de mi viaje a Chile mi familia, sobrinos, amigos muy bien pasé tiempo con ellos y me recargue de energía.

Con respecto al servicio que allá hice cocinaba una vez a la semana a las deidades del templo (Domingo) me invito una amiga a estar con ella en el servicio, además di algunas clases y limpiar en la mañana.

Hice chequeo médico todo salió perfecto me gusta ir allá y estar con mi familia

Al regresar comencé a trabajar de inmediato son más horas pero alcanzó a hacer todo mi sadhana de la mañana trabajo medio día de Lunes a Jueves y los miércoles además voy a la piscina con LaD.

Mi sadhana muy bien y siempre trabajando para mejorar detalle sin su misericordia y la de Srila Prabhupada esto no se lograría obviamente esta mi esfuerzo para mejorar mi servicio por último le comento que renové mi visa y estoy legal en el país por dos años más bueno Gurudev se despide su sirviente Raman Reti Devi Dasi

HpS - TlgaSP!!! Nuestra Gurudeva principal! Gracias sus noticias. Mucha energia para nosotros.
