Dear Hanuman Presaka Swami Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

Jay Srila Prabhupada!

I am in Bali since 3 weeks ago and dont have the chance to connect with your blog due to i am constantly traveling and i dont have my computer: i apologize not to write you in your Blog.

I would like to shear that my Ph D dissertation defense in sciences of education at Geneva university was very successful, specially when the president of five juries said " you are from now a doctor unanimously ".

By mercy of Srila Prabhuoada I got a very high mark/grade. 

I attached two pictures with the jury commission during and after the defense.

Please, could you give me your blessings to use the knowledge of this degree FULLY for SANKIRTAN?

Thank you

Your servant,

Bhadra Rupa das

Dear Doctor De La Calle,

Congratulations! I think you never had much other interest in doing this other than helping Srila Prabhupada. Please, please, please write to the Blog as often as you can. There we can get you into the Education Network.

If you look at our last Kapi-Dhvaja you will see the draft of the current ISKCON Education Journal which is just starting.

Congratulations. Take a little rest, light work, then get some perspective on where you go from here.

We will send a copy of this letter to Maha-buddhi Das, our mutual friend, and post it on the Blog.

PAMHO

I hope You are Ok ¡¡¡

HpS - ASA --- '@'pnp~~

Thank U all so much for this visit ¡¡ We have learned a lot about the appropiate relationship between Guru - disciple

I have a general question ¡¡ I was at the altar yesterday and one devotee was reading about Nectar of SP. Then He says that SP always was very enthusiastic to preach even if He was tired or not too healthy and this immediately remind me Your very goodself, I have the feeling that some of us are too pushy ¡¡¡ and wanted that U support our programs, we want that you be there to present something etc and we do not think very much about your energy, health, etc., I do not know how do you feel about that ¡¡ sometimes we are pretty intense . Please kindly forgive my offenses ¡¡¡ May U give us some comments about this.. The aim is that we have to serve U not the other way around.

HpS - Some people are very much Karma yoga, I want to do, my Guru, devotees, to do what is fun service for me.  Others are more thinking about engaging everyone in Krsna's service for KRSNA.   Like you suggest, we have to go from Karma Yoga to Bhakti-yoga.

I continue with Pujari in Wilson once a week, give Bg class once a week, and I am planning to go to Chosica once a month ¡¡¡ Adhoksaja prabhu has requested our help in pujari. But actually RMV is helping and saving us ¡¡¡

Trying to chant 16 enthusiastic and sincere rounds 
Making more friendship with devotees 
 

Yoga classes, cardio -....we are reducing the pasta in our diet ¡¡ 

but we keep in our heart what U said when we were having breakfast 

CUANDO HAY QUE COMER SE COME haha but I had gain weight :( but it was with prasadam so I guess is ok je 

I attend a Seminar about Gem Theraphy I had studied this before, but I did not have a certification and that is a must always. it was very expensive but now I can pay, I have recovered in many aspects including my income. My Guruji of gems is an argentinian Agustina Lozada she is well known and recognized she is like my grandma. So I continue helping people in that area, for some devotees has been kind of shocking but since a little girl I was very interested in these kind of things. 

I went with Yasoda to buy some gems for my patients and then we looked a church I asked her can we enter?? she was kind of surprise she felt supported and we find a little Lord Jesus that looks like Gopalito their worshipers even puts chocolates and toys near Him it was so cute, and makes me think that catholics one day may appreciate our deities and do not think that are idols

We treasure in our heart all the precious moments that we shared with You, specially with Jambavati's father .. we just saw the letter from her... We will invite him to our place ¡¡¡ He wanted a copy of the picture of the two of U, which is kind of interesting the photo of my father is included in the picture  ¡¡¡  he reminds me my father :( I feel unprotected sometimes so I have to be the iron cmdd haha but anyway we are very enthusiastic and enlightened  with your last visit

We had sadhusanga with rohini kumar, maria ¡¡¡ 

Ulyses is missing you already as we are ¡¡¡ Thanks for comming to our home 

The phrase of yours that most touched me was this "The definition of our yatra must be our study of the Srimad Bhagavatam" I like SB very much ¡¡¡ SO it is my desire if You give us your blessings to start a PDP course.. Actually we are starting a group with Priyasakhi dd (chile) study of the first two cantos I have the need to revise them again and again even if we are starting the Bhaktivedanta course ¡¡¡¡ I can not believe it ¡¡¡ 

I teach in the Faculty of Psychology so we are going to share your presentation about Jung.. the director asked all the teachers to focus on Psychology in our classes ¡

Well that's it my report in Ekadasi 

Please any advice, instruction, complaint about ourselves. we will appreciate it very much. Tell me in which way I can serve U. I feel i am not doing anything
 

Thank you for always being there for us
 

trying to be useful

HpS - Hare Krsna.   I think your letter represents a lot of people. You are doing quite well. Unless we shock our Godbrothers and Godsisters a little bit with our unique preaching activities (Gem Therapy) then I think we are not really giving our full selves to the preaching. We surprise them, the surprise us, Candravali surprises Radha!

My peal really helped by allergy.

More results with more people sucked into your world. When is your Mom going to take first initiation, Haw!   Haw!   Haw!

Very nice fotos.

Dear Guru Maharaj

PAMHO AGTSP

It's a good news, I'm was booking the tickets to Vrindavan. 26 Sept.arriving there.I am very very happy to be in Vrindavan and see you again. It's look like that you will be there for very short time. With your mercy and permission I'll try to be with you ,all the time until you are in Vrindavan.

Your servant

HpS - There are two more letters from you!!!   We will try to get them tomorrow!    Yes, we can meet in Delhi and Brndavana.   You can help us with the work there.   How is your sister???????

Hare Krsna!     AGTSP     paoho & bw.
We answered a lot of letters.   We put our DTC in the one to Ambarisa, "NIOS Movie".

It is 6.04PM.  There are sudden raging thunder storms. The wall of our mobile home moves back and forth about three inches!.  Lightening crashes.  Rain

LSSSSSSSSSSS!! ! ! !          Scarey!     We are getting headache from computer.   We want to stop writing.  We want to go on writing.  We want to go to NGD house and do Kirtan for Radha-Natabara.  We want to ear ice cream until it comes out of our nose and ears.

Want, Want, Want!

What does Krsna want?

He wants that the lotus feet of His pure devotee, Srila Prabhupada are comfortable.  Some big guys can take care of higher aspects of Srila Prabhupada's body.  We are lucky if we can be good blades of grass in the carpet.

Let's look at CMDD's letter. In English.

Indra's last letter and the MOE Journal Letters.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada Maharaja!!   All Glories to Sripada Maharaja!!  

All Glories to Gouranga Mahaprabhu and Goura Bhakta Vrinda Ki Jay

All Glories to HpS Guruji Maharaj !!

Please accept my humble obeisanses unto HpS Guruji Maharaja’s padama charan that I had read recent reply of my previous letter regarding the inauguration of my newly constructed house. I can imagine Guruji's impression of material world. In my openion, as a grihasta it is the responsibility of a father for his childred. I will try to follow the systems of Banaprastha and Snyasa after retirement from service and completion of my son and daughters's marriage ceremony. Everything is possible only after the blessings of Guruji Maharaja and Gouranga Mahaprobhu. 

I came to know from the blog that the last part of Guruji's tour in India is planning for N.E. India specially Manipur. Which date will be more convenient of Guruji's programme in N.E. and in which places? 

I could not get any communication from Haridas Swami because He was also on tour at Bali or somewhere.  If possible I will try to take His suggestions also. What will be about Tripura, Silchar, Guwahati etc.

Radha Krsna Ki Jay and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay

Guruji Maharja! Dandavat Pranam,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Guruji Maharaja’s padmacharan that in last letter I had mentioned that on the Ratha Jatra I narrated the 9.4.50-64 of Bhagavatam in an audence of above 70. In the narration not only the sloka and the translation, the purport of A.C. Prabhupada I took references from Gita and Bhaktirasamrta Sindhu in relation with the character of Ambarisa a true bhakta of Krsna. Broadly discussed the qualities of a Brahmana and the the differences of a Brahmana and a Beisnava. As mentioned in the Bhagavatam clearly that Durbasa Mahamuni was a Brahmana he was not a Beisnava. The meaning of Bhakti and seva. Again on the 23rd July, my turn is comming, so I am now preparing for the difficult task and related explainations.

HpS - Those are very advanced subjects. Very wonderful you have audience to discuss those things!    Is there some sequence, system, that decides which verses, Cantos, you are discussing?

We want to know Guruji's planning of N.E. India programme for our planning.

Yours fallen servant,

Yamunesvara Das

=================================

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,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Guruji's Padamacharan that last Sunday the 23rd July, 2017 I had narrated the Bhagatam 9:5:1-15 slokas as a rotation among our four bhaktas. 

Now I am reading the Bhakti Rasamrita Singhu 1 : 2 : 58 in the sloka about the prema bhakti. In the last part of the sloka referred Bhagavatam 10:33:6 in the purposrt of the sloka Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura states that Devaki, besides being the name of Vasudeva's wife, is also a name of mother Yasoda, as stated in the Adi purana: dve namni nanda bharyaya yasoda devakiti ca. "The wife of Nanda has two names - Yasoda and Devaki".  What it exactly means? Please explain.

HpS - ASA -- I don't know. Sometimes it is like that. People call you by different names.  Of course "Devaki" means of, daughter of, Devaka, which can mean celestial or divine and Yasoda can mean she gives "Yasha" or opulence. So Yashoda is also celestial.  People can call you "Mukta", "Yamunesvara". 

Guruji, I could not hear Guruji's amrtabani for the two to three weeks, I think you might be very very busy. What about Guruji's health? May Krsna helps you.

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das 

HpS - If you look at letter from Ambarisa Das about "NIOS Movie" today, we write in detail about our health, energy. We feel very bad we cannot answer all you letter immidiately. You are representative of Manipuri which is great state!! Your are one really nice guy!

We feel like we can be of service.

We have similar requests about schedule from Rtu-raja Das and Bishall.  Here is what we wrote to Bishall!

HpS - Hare Krsna, Bishal et al.    In other letter on NIOS movie I give our current health and energy report. We saw the other letter, but could not answer. You have seen our Calendar, no?

Sept 28-Oct 25th = Delhi, Vraja, Ujjain, Bombay, Australia.

25th - 7th = Kolkata, Mayapura, North east.  Two weeks.  We would, could, just stay with you in Silchar and get good results but our assigment now includes other parts of India, Spain, USA, South America.  What about Manipur and Rtu-raja's Temple?   How can we use those two weeks best for the benefit of everyone?

Yamunesvara Das:  What do you think?  How should we use those two weeks?
