Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

ASA - Tom Brown chose this size, color and highlight!

 AGTSP ¡¡¡ PAMHO ¡¡¡¡

I am exhausted ¡¡¡ This ECPE course is at 7 am. So I have to leave home around 5:45 am .Then I have to  give classes at the university... until 9:30 pm. Moroever, on weekends I have university workshops from 8am to 12pm. That is the reason why I am joining FMP at 5 am :( and I will join Namacarya's group on Monday (TLC). I hope this is ok for U..

ASA: We have consulted with the Supreme Absolute Undiferentiated ASA Comando and they say put 16/4/Brahma-muhurta Arati, first and they will back you up with concentrated air strikes and artillery fire whenever you need them to annhilate all of your enemies. Jaya, Super-Girl!

However my course finishes next Friday :) The exam is free just for those who have taken the courses...

ASA - God! Considering what austerity you go through it shoud be!

In addition, the charge of the exam is more than S/ 400, so I will take it on December, I just have to practice, in the last simulation test I do all the reading comprehension correct, vocabulary more less, but the CLOZE part was not so good, I just have to read and read in English, Thus I will read SP's books in English in order to be ready. For instance, in one of my book readings, the vocabulary has words like paraphernalia and so on, and I was the only one accostumed to that vocabulary.

For leading FMP, new schedule: Mitravinda dd leads on Thursdays and me on Sundays .... <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

Thank U for your answer to my last letter.. Yes the ladies who take therapy with me, appreaciate that I am vegetarian, sadhana, etc. They are just giving up the idea of controlling everything,  

Now I can say that it has taken  me more than 2 years to completely heal all my wounds. Now I just feel grateful not recentulness. I can see now that I am light and dark at the same time, but now I accept and appreciate both of them as well. I wish that all may feel the peace that I have nowadays. Obviously, I have to continue growing...I am doing Vinyasa yoga, gem theraphy, coaching, pujari, give BG classes once a month, but most importantly I have association with devotees ¡¡¡

Thank U Gurudeva. I have done things in this healing process that I've never imagine that I would do. I see how Krsna is revealing me His marvelous plan... I still have contaminations . For instance, yesterday I almost got mad because one of my godbrothers is criticizing me because I do gem theraphy... but then I just remembered your example about the pearl on your Japa beads...and I feel relieved. I do not feel discouraged anymore.

Carla Pflucker sends her respects, she says you will remember her surmane, jeje.

ASA - How is here baby?

Thank U for be [being] the captain of the boat for this long trip, back home back to Radha and Krsna

Trying to be useful.

HpS - ASA -- Thanks for the news. If any godbrothers criticize your actions then ask them for more!

You have many good friends. Just learn to have a proper relationship with them.

Prahlada had proper relationship with his father!

PAMHO! But sometimes Maharaja, it feels, I can not take it, I get good feeling that I have published my site, but it happens all again. Everyone that mattered to me starts behaving like pigs, claiming me to be crazy, some starts using more opiates inside ISKCON and my ex Nitai Priya Devi Dasi claimed me crazy and still claims, Ter Kadamba the same or worse.... and then this Ip dasa goes all the meetings of bhaktas here, and I don't want to see that rapist in opiates, like some else also, but one who is in opiates, he destroys everyone else's lifes to the point they start using opiates too. Sometimes this is little bit too much, because there is no one, those who are interested in same things even a little are otherwise some old cannabinist womanizers, but I'm glad that there is an internet. And that there is that meat eater pigeon, even though.... it's hard...it's really hard. Maharaja; how can this page destroy my life so? I thought I am not against family life, I always defended even my father, even though he is a complete alcoholist..  I guess they are all then just very jealous souls, or what can it be? I listened so many years my alcoholist father, that free energy, what I ever did was laughable. The theater he hasn't criticized, but his alcoholist brother has. How come these people thrive with accusations of rapings and pedophily instead? When they will stop their teasing? I really understand sometimes people who murder. How can they think people can live here like that from day to day, and actually, I guess they don't live.... Yours Sincerely Nanuk Henrichs

HpS - ASA -- Have you not 2-3 people in physical bodies with whom you can associate in a progressive manner?  That is a great asset in you battle with the Witch. Get a little village where you can get bread. Then you can build 2-3 relations with Madhyama-adhikaris.

NOI 3,4 is good advice. Helped me so much.

I don't know you so clearly, but I know you deeply (Ha!!  Ha!  Tesla quote).

Will look at your other letters. 

Yes, I made it go viral now, I just changed the name of the site and it was published again :) making some buzz also by explaining the keppe-motors:) in Turku. http://akasha-plane.weebly.com/ . Well, that is my site. Through that technology I became closer to Krishna back then :). Hoping the grace will be raining like some acidic thing on our old bones on the streets :) Hare Krishna :)

ASA - AGTSP!  We looked at it. Yes, Prabhupada gives such oportunities for subtle science people to go through that to transcedental science. The next Maharaja Praiksit, Gauranga-lila, will need fancy weapons to impress people!

Can we turn all the u-238 into lead??

Back to the village.

Thank you for kindness of your picture. We put one of ours.

We are Nuts.

YOu are Nuts

Lord Caitanya is the Supreme, transcendental Nut!

(We are not as transcendental in our Nuttiness!)

(TB/BW here.  HpS has gone for a walk (He is doing pretty good. Considering the fact that he only has contact with one other human being for about 44-minutes daily and that is a Director of a Mental Hospital. He is terrified of the ... [the DIRECTOR just called {We MUST GO, 6.28PM}])

Hare Krishna Gurudeva,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

First of all i would like to say that i hope you are fine. Things seems intense, when looking at the agenda.

ASA - When we look at it, it does seem that way. We picked this font and color and size for this letter. Pick your own!

The thing with the phone didn't work out, basically because of my misunderstanding your intent, so that i was too late with my message and missed you. Or so it seems to me. Then i couldn't get hold of a European number. But anyway, i resolved to call to the US, in the hope to catch you there. I hope that is okay with you. I don't like to be a mosquito. Time is a great teacher; it shows us many things about ourselves. What we are and what we are not.

ASA - Huh!?   We don't understand?  You were trying to hack Tom Brown's cell phone!   Very ambitious!!!   They could put you in a special Intelligence Unit in the UNESCO Peace Keepers for that.

Here things are going better. I'm switching jobs. Our company lost its contract for the city's transport so me and pretty much everyone else has to go. No problem, this time we were equipoised about the thing; Krishna gave and Krishna took away. In the meantime i'm reading Yamuna's book. It is the best book from an ISKCON disciple ever! Beautiful descriptions of Srila Prabhupada and the wonderful Yamuna. She is truly special. And lastly, the most positive thing, is that there is a little taste for chanting again, by Good Grace.

ASA - How did you get it!!???

Anyway, i'm very happy for you, engaged in the mission of Srila Prabhupada.

Your aspiring servant,
Raghava-pandita dasa

ASA - Yes!!!!  Krsna is certainly taking a personal interest in your job, wife, kid(s), friends . . . He wants you back to your real job!!

Tell us a very nice Krsna conscios citation!   Do you know "Nanuk"?

Hare Krishna Gurudeva !

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet !!!

ASA - Lettuce feet!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !!!

ASA - Lotus feet!

Gurudeva, as I told you in my last two letters…my spiritual life is getting better....

ASA - So is ours!!!  We hope to keep up with you!   AGTSP!

...if I compare it with previous years. I am steady with my sadhana; mangala artik every day, 16 rounds, 4 principles strictly, etc.

I am always focusing on doing a good sadhana; trying to chant my rounds well….as you always tell us: “is the base of everything”.

Even though there are days that I feel good and enthusiastic…..there are others that I feel with little motivation, discourage and tired, almost like I do not have any direction in my life….in the sense of what are my plans for the future? ( If I still have a “future”, we do not really know when we will leave this body ), sometimes  I was wondering: what is my path ?, what can I do to serve Krishna ? What is my service to Krishna ?

HpS - Chant Hare Krsna!!!!

In my moments of discouragement and lack of motivation…I have been trying to discover HOW to feel alive or how to be alive in this bhakti-yoga process…in other words I mean: how to stay enthusiastic and happy in my spiritual life…

ASA - Yell!    Hare Krsna!!!  Loudly one time and the Witch will flee far, far away!

...besides practicing my daily sadhana; chanting my rounds, doing mangala artik, etc.  I would like to know what else I can do in terms of devotional service to Krishna and at the same time keep the enthusiasm and motivation.

ASA - Hey!   That's like asking, "Besides tending the root of my mango tree what can I do to make better mangos". There is nothing "differnent" form Daily Sadhana. Different projects and communities, friends, Sankirtan partners, emerge as a result of Daily Sadhana Bhakti!

One result of DSB is to realize that it is eternal. As we wake up the "Days" become an eternal Yantra.  We step back, back, back and it remains a part of our spiritual world. Maya is in the spiritual world just like the City Prison is a part of Lima, but little part if you are alive to the greater Lima.

I have been wondering in regards to my guna and karma what is it that I like to do ? or what would I like to do in the future?

ASA - We are looking into our Crystal Ball (TB/BW) we see that in the future you will be a ... H J S M  (exchange each letter for the previous one in the alphabet and get the mystical answer form TB!). That's a good basis for a lot of work, no? We have a lot to do in this perspective just being Sanyasis.
 

Ayuveda helps. Six astrologers might help. Asking friends will help determine this stuff . Then it has major changes every 14-years!   Hare Krsna!

A few days ago while I was singing Guru-astaka in Chosica…all of the sudden it came to my mind one “Idea” or “inspiratión” where I realized that what I would love to really do is to travel….travel constantly, see new and different places, meet new people, new devotees, make new friends, have new friends and stay for a short period of time in each place. Then, after that “idea” another one came to my mind: that if I want to travel this way…..what I could do is to teach “Bhakti Yoga” or “Bhakti Sastri” courses in different places.

ASA - Jaya!  Do it!   With a friend!! !     Teach Bhakti yoga by smiling at people.

Gurudeva, I did Sankirtana, book distribution out in the streets, in public buses for several years, but now it is difficult for me to do that, because as I told you before I have a difficult time walking due to an issue with my leg, so I am not suited to do Sankirtana in public buses the way I did in the past, I can not be standing up or walk for longer periods of time and besides Lima is increasingly hectic these days.

So, I was thinking lately about this “idea”….this “plan” of consciously study Srila Prabhupada´s books, train myself to be able to teach this philosophy. There is an organization called “Cultura del Bhakti” that is directed by P. Param Padam from Argentina…you know him. His institution gives on-line classes to become teacher of the Vedic scriptures, I was checking their page on Facebook and this institution gives these courses: TT1 ( Teacher training 1 ), TT2 ( Teacher training 2 ), and the course to become a Bhakti Sastri teacher, when you finish these courses they give you teacher official credentials, so you can teach in different places.

ASA - Might work. Maybe you can give it a try, but with a friend!!

Actually… Gurudeva, more than teaching “Bhakti Yoga” or “Bhakti Sastri” from a technical point of view.…what I would like more than anything is being a kind of counselor, to give advice, to guide, to encourage and support other people, I like to be connected to people, the human connection, to be a “friend” to others.

ASA - Exactly. The money will come. Do you need a title?  We can give you an examination and a title from ASA. What is a good title.

I know that to do all this I will have to train myself and get qualified….not only in the scriptures knowledge but in my own purification.…and as you said:  “build our character”.

What do you think Gurudeva ?

Do you think it is a good idea for me? in a short-term?, med-term?, long-term?

I am experiencing a planetary tamasic phase (long Rahu period) where I have a hard time studying Srila Prabhupada books although I feel that my sadhana is helping me a lot I still find it difficult to concentrate on reading for long periods of time. To be very honest….I have been reading very little each day. What do you recommend about this?

ASA - Read a little from a lot of different books during the day. Read books by devotees. Satsvarupa Goswami. Go go many events in Lima. Go to smile at people!

Thank you, Gurudeva !!!  for all your patience and causeless mercy upon me !!!!!!

Trying to be your servant !!!

Mitravinda d. d.

ASA - Trying to be the flea on your flea!!  We are following your example! Send us a story about your Deities!!
