PAMHO!

Ok , the problem really seems to be in Radhanath Swami: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QatUU7XLxco this is girl who was abused by Bhavananda........and then Radhanath Swami has also raped people according to this documentary. This is heavy.  https://lastingimpression.info/mayavadinol_explained/ This is good slovenian page. Hanuman ki jay!! I knew about Bhakti Bhringa Swami not being pure at all:  https://lastingimpression.info/king_of_kirtan/

Hare Krishna!!!!! Hare Rama, may Radha be always on your side, and maybe mine too.

ASA - Didn't have chance to follow the links, but I know they said that Hansadutta Swami was sitting on the Vyasa-asana in the Sunday Feast in Berkeley in cowboy boots and shoot guns, but I was there. He didn't do that, so would have to see lot of detail to get exact decision about someone's moral character.
ISKCON is very big. I fight for it's purity as an institution, which is not going to be perfect; I have my friends like you, Namacharya, Abhirama, Karuna krsna, Nitya-kishori ...........

And I have my own personal relationship with Srila Prabhupada. We are little fish, sh, sh, sh, in the big ocean of ISKCON.
.. not discounting criticism of our leaders, just putting it to the microscope.

Hare Krsna maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP>
 Hail Monkey Swami!!!!

seeing your tide up schedule we refrained from writing to you.  our mind thinks  its good time to communicate with you.

at this moment of writing letter to you we are little disturbed as we just read news of that in Iceland is promoting pre natal abortion/murder of down syndrome children..... all we can remember that you said people killed like this are not innocent.  and people in higher planets becoming remorse by looking at pain of others.
i dont know what can be done immediatley to relieve suffering people,  but one think is sure " take more responsibility of spiritual life".

ASA - Aaacha!   Very good. How can we see the seeds of this murder in our own habits and change it.


ii.  Once your grace told blog 

" <style type="text/css"> </style> O.K. We have to learn how to get strength from local devotees. We don't think that the traffic lights in the street are great devotees, but we take so much instruction from them. We risk our lives following their instructions: Go, Stop! So learn to understand the good and bad qualties of devotees and then use that to help you obtain the ultimate aim of life described by Lord Caitanya". 
You also said that as madhyam adhikari we avoid the demon part in devotees..

can you please elabore this more, how can one avoid faults of devotee  especially when they are in authority?

,, ASA,,, - ONce upon a time there was a Temple President named Daksa. He was a great Sankirtan man, Visnu Yajna, but he believed you could do any bad thing to devotees as long as you were doing Sankirtana and that Visnu would ignore it.
He had his hard-drive extracted by Lord Siva and had to use a USB drive after that.
How did people deal with Daksa, Vena, Indra when he was proud. The Bhagavatam is full of stories abou this.  What is your authorities good nature (3 things), what are his bad qualities (1-thing), and how is this God's arrangement?

iii. Our son was asking how can he know "thoughts in his head are, during thinking or dreaming" can you give any answer ?

ASA - Can you please clarify the question?

iv. we want to get intitated, but our integration with local temple is little fuzzy, as we will be moving to delhi in some time. However we have nice bonding one of disciples of H H Radhanath Maharaj, started temple in Kolhapur. 
our rounds are more steady. fourth rule is much better. morning program is also improving.

regarding disciple course, i dont know how much time we can devote. But as you have ordered we will do it surely even if lately.
ASA - Apparently it is available on line and a simple good course.

v. we have started teaching in university near rohini temple in delhi and we are in mumbai on non teaching days. We teach psychology (management perspective) to under grads. we can see that we can shape their thoughts.

ASA - Any video clips for them on the YouTube? Give your rat a cookie, give your rat a clam, and he will be a good employee and never steal you jam, Skinner.

remembering you and following your vani

Hare Krsna Guru Dev - Update from Pune on Aug 17, 2017

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

ASA - Hare Krsna/ Hare Rama


    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Gurudev, i am in talk with a NGO for your preaching program. Trying to get details
    like - how it could be useful for you & ISKCON Education Ministry.

    As the talk is in very initial stage so would keep you posted as we get details.

    Thank you so much.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

ASA - We just sent the suggestions for travel and visiting dates. Very late, but that's the best we rate. Where are Krsna, where are the Gopis, where is Vraja dhama?  We must all talk to people who can push these songs along.

Personal Sadhana and Mandir report of THOUBAL

All Glories to Sri Guruji Maharaja,

Sripada Maharaja and A.C. Prabhupada

All Grories to Sri Gouranga Mahaprabhu and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay

Radha Krsna Ki Jay,

Dandavat Pranam Guruji Maharaja,

HpS - ASA Dandavat Pranam to you also!!!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Guruji's Padamacharan that I had talked with Harida Svami about Guruji's Nort East India Tour recebtly. He is comming Imphal on the 28th August and a final tentative programme will be finalized. According his suggestion, for Manipur we need five full days including one day for Imphal. The Silchar programme suggested by Krsnamurti Das of Silchar could not be final because there in Silchar only several places needed Guruji's presence.

As Guruji suggested, this time we want to organize  a programme of some selected degree students specially youths and a discussion about NOI, the four principles of ISKCON etc. and a grand Nagar Kirtan, Prasadam distribution etc. Bonomali Prabhu also wants to visit some new places projected for ISKCON such as Kakching, Serou, Moirang, Moreh etc. 

ASA - Of course, we have fixed the dates: Arrive Imphal, the Great, August 1st, leave for Kolkata the Smaller, August 4th.  If you can give the Sarad-gaurangi Devi Dasi help you can probably organize some very fun and revolutionary things.

Now I am reading the Bhakti Rasamrita Singhu regularly but slowly. 

ASA - What part?   Is very intense book.    Do you have Srila Prabhupada's Nectar of Devotion?

Please convey to Haridasa Svami also about Guruji's suggestions.

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das.

Happy Janmastami Maharaj

All Glories to GouraNitay

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

All Glories to you Maharaj

Please accept my humble reverence and forgive me for my affront because of my ignorance.

HpS - ASA -- You got affront, but I assure that our affront is so much worse!      '@'jmj~

I am Dandakaranya Das, thank you for initiating me, I'm really happy.

ASA - We are Monkey/Piggy. We are wiry and fat. Thanks for being initiated.

My life changed and my service too. Now I'm doing service on the kitchen. I'm cooking for Deities at midday on Sundays. My sadhana is getting up at 6 am everyday and chanting at least 8 rounds then I get ready for work. However I still have a kind of pain in my heart that bothers me. I thought that the fire ceremony would finish it. What should I do to finish or control these torments from my heart?

ASA - Have more fire sacrfices: 2nd initiation, 3rd initiation, ...  125th iniation.   The Gopis have pain in Their hearts still, but is better pain: "The land, the cows, the buffalos and the trees, are all unlimited nectarean seas, of the most intense mellows of spiritual pain, something which only the most fortunate ever obtain."

Happy Balaram Purnima and Happy Janmastami. 

Thank for letting me to serve on your lottus feet and the Parampara.

Haré Krishna

HpS - ASA --- Lettuce feet AND  P A R A M P A R A !    What do you cook for Crnsa on Sunday.   Gaura Nitai don't eat it. They give it to Krsna!

As I write this

7 years, 8 months ago by Nanuk in Personal Sadhana Reports

All the Glories to Srila Prabhupada!! Truly the biggest teacher. Adn ofcourse his disciples are even better.

Govarhana makes the emerald dreams !! I was thinking the 8 guardian elephants and maybe Airavata, even, I am thinking the center of the Kunda and some form is coming out of it. And it shows the 8 guardian elephants gold plated with simple electro gold plating system. yes. Jaya the emerald dreams. I wish they never ended. Even though saphire may be closer still to Krishna. But I am so sure that emerald fits this Hill the best. Isn't transcendence known of it's coolness? Felt like it. Didn't Krishna say that from material elements He is the electricity? And from elephants: "Of horses, know Me to be the nectar-born Uchchaihshravas; of lordly elephants, Airavata and of men, the monarch." HK

ASA - Dink!   Ring-Eee Plunk!!!  All my brains into Indra's Emeral Visnu pool have sunk!    How will I find my way home again.  Well many of my friends are already dead, so I won't miss seeing them then.
