Trying to summarize my life

12 months ago by rohini in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva,

My respected Gurudeva, please accept my most humble and respectful obeisances.

All glory to Srila Prabhupada!

I always wish you the best for your health.

Om namo Bhagavate Narasimhaya!

Our "health" is a challenge.

"This body does not get diseases, this body is a disease", WRSPS.

 We need to end this body, but we need to use it to extract ourselves from it at the same time, no?


Yes, my dear Gurudeva, I think it can be my Sankirtan. I am trying to summarize my life of learning by seeing my existence in a broader context; then I allow myself to give greater meaning to my reflections. If I can finish it. I would like to give this report to You, to existence and to my Lord Krsna.


HpS/ASA - You might publish it in 'Solaris', the NIOS periodical. It needs a lot of help.

 

Now I have my attention on Swan Lake (story-ballet by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky), the beauty of its content, the music and its dance and the ease with which it can be adapted to different interpretations.


ASA - https://www.britannica.com/biography/Pyotr-Ilyich-Tchaikovsky/Years-of-fame#ref719301

We have been paying $50/year to be Members of the Britannica.

Accepted by academics, no?

Wikepedia is like the plough and Britannica is like the needle?


We wonder how many homosexuals, lesbians, would be so much happier if there was full development of Brahmacari Ashrama and Polygamy in society?

Thus, I can see the search for the self. and the confusion that is experienced in the face of this fictitious envelope, well explained in the Bhagavad Gita As It Is by Srila Prabhupada in Chapter 2. How in the human person coexists, the good and the evil, outside and within himself, because everything that exists comes from GOD SB 4.8.3 and how that coexistence is a struggle to achieve the ‘YO’, integrating all the ‘yoes’ that fragment us. And return to Supreme God.

 

An elevation of consciousness with self-discipline, determination, patience… NOI 1-3. Guided by the love, the purity, the offering, THE DEVOTIONAL SERVICE.

 

In all ages great souls have given the message of the purpose of life in different ways. Yes, ART is mainly a good vehicle for the message, even if we are not artists, just by appreciating it we can learn. It is important to have a guide, for me you are my natural guide.


HpS/ASA - 🐷 ❗❗ AgtSP. We certainly try a little. Are your eternal servants!


My sadhana is improving every time, in depth. I am in the first draft, really every day it is created, I need to link, compare, harmonize, expand, the ideas that come to me.

 

What do you think of Gurudeva?


HpS - Thank you. Thank you. We made some humble comments above, no? We only hope to continue these dialogs more and more here.

We are very limited.

We should do one more Blog letter now and go for a walk to the Temple !!!


Thank you.

How is your family?

 

All glories to Srila Prabhupada! Thank you very much for your attention Gurudeva, your time and mercy.

Your disciple

Hare Krishna, Dear Guru maharaja!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and All glories to you.

Please accept our humble obeisances. (PAOHO)


As of every two weeks:

* Bulletin is now upload on Facebook (English & Spanish), it is also in Google Groups (English & Spanish) as listed at: http://www.jayarama.us/hello.htm


Hare Krishna!!! I hope you are doing ok. I pray everyday for that.

As always I am trying to keep my sadhana sane, I get up at 4:30am to start my day. I try to finish all my round before noon, which is most of the time difficult. Reading and worship everyday.

My health is ok, I turned twelve years after being transplanted. My doctor told me again to be prepared if something happened. I don't have any symptoms that show any failure, but i am aware of the situation.

Things at school are pretty good. Next year I will be responsible for secondary level, I will be with the 9th grade. Next week we will present our play "Who we are". This play is a collective creation of the students and the teacher.


HpS - AgtSP. Wonderful. We are in Peru when we hear from you. We remember Sanatana Goswami saying that every cowherd boy thinks that he is KRSNA's closest friend. he is disturbed, confused, by this. he thinks that KRSNA has so many other friends who are so much more sincere than he is, more competent. Yet, he sees that KRSNA comes to him again and again with confidence!


We remember Sanatana Goswami saying that every cowherd boy thinks that he is KRSNA's closest friend, and then commenting that.... by the nature of the internal potency it is a fact.


Harvard, Oxford, San Marcos, they all fall or rise depending on your service to KRSNA at Waldorf School, Lima, no? 🙂


I really appreciate and thank you for doing this bulletin.

I was thinking maybe you can publish it once a month.


HpS - Your advice is worth $200/word!

We started it like May 1979, so maybe May 2024, 45-years later, it is time to send it to Goloka, or turn it over to anyone who wants to take Sannyasa from HpS/Uncle Gismo et al.




Thank you so much.

HpS = Thank you all!!! How is your nephew??

DVAD, Sannyasa Dharma, Politics

asa[e[; DVAD, Sannyasa Dharma, Politics


AGTSP. paoho.... this is an eternal story. how a sannyasi should relate to politics.


"To achieve the highest success in life by becoming a gosvāmī and then a pure devotee of the Lord, one must follow the instructions ... given by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī has given many ... books ... One should follow these instructions very strictly. Then it will be easier to make one’s life successful. Hare Kṛṣṇa." https://vedabase.io/en/library/noi/preface/#bb5772


"One who enters the householder's life can execute the duties of a family man because he has already been trained for this job in the brahmacarya-āśrama. And after fifty years of age the householder retires from family life and prepares for the life of sannyāsa.", https://vedabase.io/en/library/lob/32/#bb1582457


So, Goswami: man, woman, child; should reduce politics. yes, in kutichaka sannyasi lives alone near home. grand daughters may bring prasad daily. he may give political decisions for the family but but should turn the politics, business, work, more and more over to the next generation. otherwise it can become 'foul means of livelihood'. the 'next generation are not old fools like us'.


now [23 12 01] all HpS/HHR politics and $$$ based in the ASA Blog!

c u there! 😍

asa[e]; asa verse book

asa[e]; asa verse book

[12/1/2023 7:39 AM] anandana Swami: https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/1/6/37/

I chose this verse and purport because I like the freedom of devotional service and preaching

🙏🏼😊


asa - this verse is so key for us also. in the mode of goodness we have free will to chose between different material choices, no? and if we chose sattva guna and if we do it enough then KRSNA sees that and sends a guru?

Priyasakhi DD - Reporte de salud -Urgente

12 months ago by priyasakhi in Other

Hare Krsna, Guru Maharaja.

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

¡Todas las glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada!


Gurudev, espero se encuentre muy bien.

Aquí estoy para entregarle un reporte de mi salud. En el hospital la señal era muy mala.

Parasurama escribió pero olvidó poner URGENTE.


El 16 de noviembre me hospitalizaron por una urgencia coronaria (al corazón). Al siguiente día el diagnóstico fue un infarto. Una arteria del corazón se rompió. Los médicos lo consideran un "Infarto Atípico" porque llevo una vida sana (sin vicios), soy "joven", mi familia no tiene problemas al corazón, ni tengo otras enfermedades. Además el infarto fue en reposo, no estaba haciendo fuerza.

Un equipo de la Universidad Católica de Chile que trabaja en el Hospital me trató y me pidieron firmar un consentimiento para mostrar mi caso en congresos y revistas académicas.


ASA - un burro con allas.


Todos los días me levanté temprano, tomé una ducha, cante el gayatri y 16 rondas. Mis lecturas fueron: Srimad Bhagavatam (4to canto capítulos 5-8), Upadesamrta, Tava Pache Pache y Saranagati.


Los médicos consultaban curiosos sobre el rezo y los libros.


Tuve 2 compañeros de habitación de 70 y 80 años aproximadamente. Postrados y esperando irse de éste mundo. Puse el maha-mantra cantado por Srila Prabhupada por las noches y oré mucho por ellos.


Recibí una dieta vegetariana, pero no prasadam. Deseaba con ansias comer prasadam y un kirtan y asociación con devotos.


Pensé mucho en la muerte y hasta ahora mis días no son los mismos.


La muerte está muy cerca y hay que estar preparados.


Yo confío en que aunque no estoy preparada, si Krsna quiere puedo recordarlo en el momento de la muerte,


ASA - 🐒 "Incluso si el devoto no recuerda, en el momento de la muerte su servicio divino, el Señor no se olvida de él. Se presenta esta oración para recordarle al Señor acerca de los sacrificios del devoto, pero aunque no ocurra ese recordatorio, el Señor no olvida el servicio devocional ejecutado por Su devoto puro.", https://vedabase.io/es/library/iso/17/#bb93743


Pero yo creo que tengo aún mucho por hacer por la conciencia de Krsna de mis hijos. Quiero que ellos se fortalezcan mucho más en su fe.

Quizás tengo la oportunidad de poder seguir sirviendo en la misión de Srila Prabhupada.

Ahora debo descansar por 2 meses aproximadamente, Sin actividad física, sin fuerzas ni agitaciones y con 2 medicamentos muy amables. La arteria se puede reparar, pero siempre debo cuidarme porque esto podría volver a pasar.


Muchas gracias Gurudev por leer.

Y quedo atenta a lo que usted me pueda decir.

Su aspirante a sirviente

Hari Bolo! Hari Bolo!

Gurumaharaja, logramos contactar a Jambavati, le envía sus respetuosas reverencias, dice que está bien, tratando de resolver los retos diarios, está tratando de hacer arreglos para regresar a México, continúa cuidando a su padre, por lo que pensó que no hay una novedad importante para informar.
