Letters to the editor

ASA - Nanuk's letters are hot!    Wouldn't recommend them unless you are a higher Madhyama-adhikari devotee, but they are also really profitable for us technological types.

PAMHO! ok Maharaja I will try to contact this alcoholist (ASA - alcoholic (Alhambra (Alcatraz)) again, but because he was reading without permission his sister's facebook, I will wait for a half year, and who says he is my circle, I just hanged around with him and his family, because these opiate user's of ISKCON with diksha I couldn't anymore for I am the one who snitched him, but he had the agenda to preach to him, not me, I have very much work, when he just lies there, XXX(Name withheld to not freak anybody out - TB) , in opiates. So Maharaja why I should also break the four principles when I got over it. Hanging with people in many promille (1000?) drunk, is though very common for me. Never heard my own thoughts or plans between these loud people. Always knowing better than oneself how things should be done in 3 promille intoxication (What is promille in this context?).

Hare Krishna. And that XXX actually has done theater as this pigeon should, for he was a Famous, haha, actor in very small villages, at summer, when he was young. But he has experience, at least of suffering. But I just want these guys to meet up. Hare Krsna.

I already helped my ABC so much that he took my only DEF in my life, just like these guys, for DEFs are so stupid that they believe more the opiate user's style, that's almost 100% sure..... Hare Hare!!

Thank you all for your association, determination!!!    Now Second Initiation (3rd (4th...)))

Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaja

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to you!

I hope you are getting some rest and recovering from your hectic sankirtan in South America.

HpS - We are, AGTSP!!!    Paoho...  but we also have to deal with the hectic Sankirtan in Murfreesboro, USA.  Ha!   Ha!   Hare!

It is so inspirational to read about your travel and preaching in the blog. I visit the blog everyday to see if you have posted.

HpS - Goodness!!!    Puts more pressure on us to post decent things!!!!

Last month has been very inspirational as well as challenging.

I went to Boise in the beginning of July to take darshan of HH Gopal Krishna Maharaja. This was my first time meeting Maharaja. It was a very nice experience.

HpS - We had a very wonderful dream of him. He was very affectionate to us but we felt that our birth and early culture has given us very dirty character.

Then a couple of weeks back, I got somehow pulled into a dispute between two devotees when I had been consciously trying to avoid getting involved. It was really bad. My chanting suffered a bit. I always considered ISKCON my happy place. It broke my thinking that nothing could go wrong in Prabhupada's institution. I didn't know what to do but in hindsight I think it was orchestrated by Krishna to force me to take more shelter of your lotus feet and demostrate that it is the material world and there is no happy place here.

HpS - In 1974 when we moved into the Temple these things were very tough to deal with, problems in ISKCON. ISKCON San Francisco and ISKCON KRSNA book. Then the Upadesamrta was published and it helped SO MUCH!!   Texts 4, 5, 6 make it clear that there are different levels of devotees and how to deal with them. Of course, there are more and more details as we read P'pada's books.   Avoid the material attachments in other Second Class devotees like us.  Make frienship with them in their purified aspects and preach to their innocent side.  Duck, smile, pat on the back.

What you wrote in the previous Kapidhvaja gave me lots of inspiration to chant with focus after being disturbed - Hold the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada in your heart and chant the maha-mantras there for his satisfaction. I have been chanting 16 rounds everyday and following the four regulative principles strictly.

HpS - You are an inspiration for all of us.

Sankirtan wise, we distributed 49 Bhagavad Gitas last month. Our monthly goal was 45. We have been reading Srimad Bhagavatam in the morning call and are in the second chapter of the first canto now. I gave my first Saturday feast talk too. I think it went ok.

We distributed 10 NOI's by mail and one in Kroegers.

My yonger brother got an admit to do his Masters in University of Bridgeport in Connecticut and he came to the US last week. I am going to the east coast during the labor day weekend to meet him. Since it is 1 hr ahead of Tennessee time, I should be able to attend the FMP during my stay there.

HpS - Great. We will have a big online program that weekend.

Yesterday we celebrated Balarama Purnima in the temple and had Julhan yatra. I was remembering how you asked me in Chennai, if I knew who the author of Jaya Radhe Jaya Krishna song was and when I guessed it was Narottam Das Thakur, you corrected me saying it was Krishnadas Kaviraj Goswami.

Thank you so much Guru Maharaja for your causeless mercy and for inspiring me everyday by your example.

Your Servant

Srinatha Krsna Dasa

HpS - Tell us about your parents!!!   Family!

Adorado Gurumaharaja: Please accept my obeisances a your feet of lotus!

HpS - ASA - Carrot feet?!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories a Sri Sri Radha Madhana Vihari!

My sadhana report: I had a hard time getting up early. As almost for two months I did not get up and was worried, but I think if I try to do the best I can, at least I leave the conscience somewhat quiet. Again I am putting all my effort into doing so and there is always a taste and that makes you try the next day. The good memories that remained in me of the devotees like prabhu kanupandit, p Natabara, so many mothers who inspired me with their example as mother Jambabati, mother Mdhumanyari, mother Astasaki, make me stay and of course his inspiration.

I remember the service of my mothers to you. The Magalartiks in Chosica and everything I lived and learned. All this makes me stay enthusiastic in krsna consciousness. I am very grateful to all the devotees who helped in my spiritual life. I am following sadhana morning and evening.

As always fulfilling the number that I proposed of rounds and readings. After time I went to the preaching center to see M bbs and I was very happy to see that four people from those invited in the street went to the program. Them in some way.

Gopalito has had some friends but always temporary for the changes. I was very worried about him and his association in the colegio.pero understood that really I can do nothing but give the best of me and I pray to krsna to protect a lot gopalito and us to take care of him, since he does not have anyone else Than to us.

I'm still working on selling handicrafts and I'm getting used to working freelance. I walk about five hours a day and I get used to it. I return tired but happy, because I can also preach.

Thank you for your blessings Gurumaharaja!

It is also my wish and wish of Franco to go to Manipur.

He likes to tell me a lot because he sees a calmer atmosphere, less people than in other places in India.

Thanks for all Gurudev, please forgive any offense in this letter .. trying to serve you: Japa prati jalpa Radha dd.

HpS - ASA -- Hare Krsna!!!  Here is wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipuri_dance   Maybe in Spanish and seems could be translated very easily. 

If you go to YouTube and look for "Manipuri Dance" you will find incredible things. Maybe you can pick out some of the best. Send us the links. If you get early you will chant better rounds. If you chant better rounds you will have more intense intelligence how to serve Krsna by ... organizing a Manipuri Dance school in South America ... getting a grant for studying Manipuri dance, music, art for 6-months with your family in India. . . 

Haré Krsna 

Agtsp all glories to You

Pamho
