Letters to the editor

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja, por favor reciba mis respetuosas reverencias.

En la carta anterior usted me hizo la siguiente pregunta:

HpS - AgtSP. ¡¡¡Gracias!!! Por favor, conviertan todas sus actividades en Sankirtan, ¿no? Si hacen astrología, ¿la relacionan con el Sankirtan?

El trabajo que tengo es de editar libros vinculados a la consciencia de Krsna y de Jyotish.

A veces trabajo y a veces no, no es algo fijo.

El Jyotish mayormente lo utilizo para mí en algunas cosas y cuando salgo a Sankirtan, a las personas les hablo de las influencias planetarias y que su remedio o medicina son los libros de Srila Prabhupada.

Estoy leyendo el Krishna Book (Segunda parte) "La llegada de Akrura a Vrndavana", Mangal Artik 4 y 30 am, 4 principios regulativos, 16 rondas de Japa a veces un poco más.

A veces pienso que no atiendo bien a las Salagrama Silas y en especial a la Govardhana Sila. Tengo mis errores. Trato de atenderlas lo mejor que puedo. Quizá todo lo malo que me ha pasado es por que no las atendí como es debido y cometí ofensas. ¿Qué debería de hacer?

HpS - Hare Krsna. TlgaSP. pfanrh. No se mas de Vd. Tiene que ser fuerte en purificarte de sus apegos materiales. La purificacion es eterno.

si es muy fuerte.. rompiendo 4 principios.. entonces el pujari debe volver los silas a govardhana or rio gandaki, no?

Me despido Guru Maharaja, que el Señor Nrsimha lo proteja siempre.

Hare Krsna

HpS ... thank you. your news is so good for all of us. i think H. H. Bhanu Swami uses astrology and palmistry the same way as you.

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, PAMHO

I have seen pictures from your visit to Richmond. I was overjoyed by seeing all the devotees that went to be with your very good self

I am not going to write much so that your vision is not affected.

I go to church every sunday with my sister. Last Friday it was the festivity of Santa Rosa de Lima so we went there. I couldn't go to Janmastami I hope to be able to go to Radhastami.

16 R ok

4P ok

Last August 28th, was the anniversary of the departure of my father 14 years has passed and I still can feel his presence within my heart I found some pictures when he was young, he went to Japan due to an scholarship that he got. He looked really happy I hope he is fine now

Ulyses is almost 14 years old but he seems still pretty strong

I hope to meet with you in person again if not as you said we meet here in the blog

Trying to be your disciple

HpS/ASA - Do they, Hare Krsna, dress their dietys, icons, in the church where you go?

The Catholic church in Murfreesboro is Santa Rosa!

Hare Krishna Gurudev;

Please accept our humble obeisances,

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

We got the link for the 5th movie.

Thank you.

Your servant.

Sunday Morning Srimad Bhagavatam Workshop: We will start reading Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya-lila, Chapter Nine: Lord Caitanya's Travels to the Holy Places. We will start reading 9.164 verses onwards. We should be able to complete reading another 30 verses.

Thank you to H. G. Ambrish Prabhu for being there to help with translation.

It is the mercy of Maharaja, to engage everyone in reading books of Srila Prabhupada.

Por favor acepte mis más humildes reverencias

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las glorias a sus pies de loto

Ofrezco una enorme disculpa por no haber escrito en estos últimos meses, supongo que no nos es tan fácil entender que no nos debemos creer tan insignificantes como para poder mantener comunicación con el maestro espiritual.

Ya no trabajamos en el templo, por el momento no mantenemos ningún servicio directo para las deidades de Sus señorías Radha Mandan Gopal. Iniciamos con muchos tramites universitarios y mantuvimos por algunos meses un programa de distribución de prashada para una de las principales universidades en México.

En este tiempo también estuvimos un pocos decaídos con respecto a la mente, debido a que mi tío paterno que fue para mis hermanos y para mí como un abuelo muy bondadoso dejo el cuerpo y con un par de días de separación una tía también dejo el cuerpo.

Al haber nacido afortunadamente en Conciencia de Krishna queremos poder entender de mejor manera la muerte y los procesos de reencarnación, pero de todas maneras no estamos listos.

Adoramos deidades en casa, afortunadamente mi mama se ha encargado de tener bastantes y enseñarnos a adorarlas, este año viajo unos meses a New Vrindavan (regresa en Noviembre aproximadamente y se fue en junio) así que nos encargamos de vestirlas, ofrecer mínimo 2 ofrendas alimentarias y hacer una pequeña puja. Sabemos que no estamos en el nivel indicado para hacerlo, pero tratamos de que sea con mucho amor.

Seguimos cantando 16 rondas, tratamos de no fallar en eso y si es necesario hacerlas en dos partes lo hacemos, tratamos de no romper esta promesa.

Sin más que decir

Ofrezco mis más humildes reverencias

Esperamos algún día ser aptos de su misericordia y ser mejor sirviente

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las glorias a usted

Todas las glorias a los devotos que dedican o han dedicado su vida a cantar los nombres del señor.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

All glories to your lotus [lettuce] feet

I offer a huge apology for not having written in these last few months, I guess it is not so easy for us to understand that we should not believe ourselves so insignificant as to be able to maintain communication with the spiritual master.

We no longer work at the temple, at the moment we do not maintain any direct service for the deities of Their Lordships Radha Mandan Gopal. We started with many university procedures and maintained for a few months a prasada distribution program for one of the main universities in Mexico.

During this time we were also a little down with respect to the mind, because my paternal uncle who was like a very kind grandfather to my brothers and me left the body and a couple of days later an aunt also left the body.

HpS - Happy! Go to better place!!

Having been fortunately born into Krishna Consciousness, we want to be able to better understand death and the processes of reincarnation, but we are still not ready.

We worship deities at home, fortunately my mother has taken care of having enough and teaching us to worship them, this year she is traveling to New Vrindavan for a few months (she returns in November approximately and left in June) so we are in charge of dressing them, offering at least 2 food offerings and doing a small puja. We know that we are not at the level indicated to do it, but we try to do it with a lot of love.

We continue chanting 16 rounds, we try not to fail in that and if it is necessary to do it in two parts we do it, we try not to break this promise.

Without further ado

I offer my most humble obeisances

We hope to one day be eligible for your mercy and be a better servant

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

All glories to you

All glories to the devotees who dedicate or have dedicated their lives to chanting the names of the Lord

HpS - Sorry to answer slowly.

1. we are lazy.
2. our persona is getting old and weak

But very!!!!! nice to hear from you.

Very nice.

Look for miracles.

Now we go to an evening program.

it is 5.47PM here in Richmond Virginia!! Join us.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja

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

I hope you are doing well. We really missed coming to Richmond to visit you. For Divya, it has been more than a year since she met you. But Manjari had her vaccination closer to that date and would have been very fussy during that time. She is already 2 months old now.

We are settling into a semblance of a schedule. She is sleeping better at night and we have resumed our deity worship services. Divya dressed Sri Sri Radha Govinda on Srila Prabhupada's Vyasapuja after 3 months. I am somehow squeezing my rounds in and Divya is getting there. My parents being here has been a huge help. They will be here till the 23rd and then go to Atlanta to spend a week with Srirama and leave to India on 29th September.

The second batch of Bhakti Sastri concluded here in Dallas and we have about 15 graduates. The devotees are very appreciative of the in person classes. We are planning to start the third batch in October. Personally for me, it is very fulfilling to teach because I am reading the material again and learning more. We released the pujari training videos for all the arathis. It took a while but they have come out nicely.

HpS - Have you, agtSP, read "Surrender unto me" by Bhurijana Das?

We have had some wonderful association during the festival period. HH Haladhara Swami visited during Julhan Yarta and gave classes on Queen Kunti's prayers. Incredible classes with commentaries from Srila Vishvanatha Cakravati Thakur. Maharaja was making the point that Srila Prabhupada's purports had everything. He would read VCT's commentary and read Srila Prabhupada's purports to demonstrate it.

Radhika Raman Prabhu and Kalakantha prabhu were there for Balaram Purnima. Everyone loved Radhika Raman prabhu and invited him to make Dallas his regular stop. He had come to visit Manjari. Then Anantarupa prabhu came to work on a memories book he had compiled for Gopal Krishna Maharaja. Since the toy project ended earlier this year, I haven't had any proper projects. So I had the time to work on the book. It was 3 days of intense work and we got the book published on Amazon KDP. We could have done a better job, but we were in a time crunch. I am learning more about typesetting and there is definitely a lot of room for improvement. When I did Twirl Your Beads, I had never worked on getting a book published. Then you mercifully engaged me in TPP and with Gopal Krishna Maharaj's book, we see this as Krishna wanting us to continue serving in this area. I am looking to change teams internally and have given interview. If I get the job, I cannot work remote anymore and would have to go to the office in Richardson, which is about a 30-40 min drive one way.

We hope we can come and meet you after you come back from Spain. We really miss your personal association. Manjari will be about 6 months then. She is a result of your mercy Guru Maharaja and already has your shelter. We request your blessing and the blessing of all the devotees in the blog for her so that she may grow up to serve Srila Prabhupada very nicely🙏🏼

Your servant

Srinatha Krsna dasa

HpS - Thank you. We saw Sriramakrsna Das and parents and baby and wife!!!

Ananata rupa Das gave us copy of Gopal Krsna Swami's book!

Of course, the margin should have been wider, no?

But then the book may have been thinner,

But reducing the font size by half a point may have solved that but...

... no one ever finished formatting a book.

They just stopped working on it.

🙂

Hari bolo!!!

Bh. Sastri.

Meeting in cyberspace and Nabadvipa in our next life?

All respects to Mata ji.
