Letters to the editor

Remembered and Adored Gurudeva:

 Hare krsna!

 Please accept my humble and respectful obeisances at your lotus feet🙏🏻🌹🌷🌺🌻🌻🌼🌻🌻🌺🌺🌷🌹

 All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

 All glories to you my dear and remembered Gurudev🙏🏻💖

 I hope this finds you in good health, and improving from your recent illnesses. May His Lord Nrshimha always protect you very much💗

HpS - AgtSP. We, you, always have good health! We are eternal, sat cit ananda. This body does not get diseases, it is a disease! If this body is rotting, then it is becoming compost for other new bodies.

 Thank you Gurudev for his instructions 💗🙏🏻

 I am very happy to know that I can serve you by sending reports about Mother Jambabati, it is a pleasure for me to help her, I have a lot of appreciation for her mother since I met her in Chosica.

HpS - Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

 Please forgive my offense in sending you my non-public message. I was actually worried about two people who have been so good to me. In the next letter I will talk a little about that.

HpS - Socrates, Canakya Pandita, Srila Prabhupada, SB all comment that it is better to have a wise man for an enemy than a fool for a friend! Hmmm?

Become EXPERT AT avoiding the Demons!

 In the Nectar of Devotion Srila Prabhupada tells us that without the initiation of the spiritual master, the true link with Krishna consciousness never occurs... I was thinking about this... and then

 I was lucky enough to dream about you recently, while I was feeling sad for having asked you non-public questions. And it was very strange... because you asked me: should I continue initiating?.. and I answered: there are so many enthusiastic devotees..!! I think if.

 I don't know what my dream meant😊

 Gurudeva I ask you to please pray for me to cleanse my heart completely in this life🙏🏻❤. And not to prosper in previous bad things🙏🏻💖

HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna! Monkey and Piggy pray that you will become very empowered, compassionate Saint and your whole family just the same!!

 I wanted to tell you that I am happy to see how you become more strict with yourself every year. This is a great example for me. Before you responded to some private messages in public and now you don't.

It makes me happy and helps me to continue being loving but also strict, especially with myself and that everything is to please our Govinda.

 This year Her Vyasa Puja was on the same day as his birthday! , I remembered so many moments lived with you and the devotees in Peru!.. so many beautiful celebrations at Ganga Sagara Mela!! The ceremonies and visits to the sea and the temple... I was very lucky to live all those moments...

 But each one must follow the path that Krishna is setting for us to Help Him... and I am happy to know that I am on the path that He sets for me and I hope to please Him💖

 It was my husband Franco Bone's birthday recently, on February 17. I ask for your blessings for him, please, so that he continues to advance in his spiritual life despite the difficulties. I remember that in a previous letter you told me that he could write a few words to his WhatsApp, but we don't have his number.

Tom Brown - We have +54 9 351 356 .... as number for the Franco, but it doesn't work for WhatsApp. If you send is a WhatsApp number we will send you our ASA number and not publish your number.

 I made a video with the song I made for Srila Prabhupada. He dedicates it to You for Your Vyasa Puja🙏🏻💖:

 I was in doubt about publish it and sending it to you... because my voice is recorded at home 😊, but I showed it to my Balarama krsna and the photo of you and Srila Prabhupada on my altar... and I felt that despite not being perfect, it is my attempt at sankirtan.

I remembered the verse where it is said that it is better to dedicate yourself to your service with defects than to do another's service perfectly.

 In any case I will try to improve my recordings with his blessings please🙏🏻 and serve better and better and please you, Srila Prabhupada and our sweet Govinda💖

 Here is the link 😊😅:

ASA - We loaded the link but have to go to Franklin, Tennessee now. So can't watch now! Thank you!!

 Franco sends you his humble reverences🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

 Gopal always sees you in the videos of his classes 😊 ..

 I try to download all the classes I can.

 Thank you for his prayers to my grandmother🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

 Please forgive any offense committed in this letter unintentionally and wishing to tell you about my sankirtan pastimes in my next letter, I say goodbye wishing to please your adorable lotus heart day by day🙏🏻💖

 His attempted disciple: Radha Japa Prati Jalpa Devi Dasi.

 Please accept bows from Franco and Gopalito🙏🏻🙏🏻

P.S

Thank you very much for the photos that you sent me Gurudeva! The 1st photo of Krishna Balarama studying reminds me how much I like learning Prabhupada's books with Gopal and Franco. and the second photo of Krsna❤ I read that Srila Prabhupada said that it is the photo that looks most like Krsna😱 so thank you for sending it to me🙏🏻💖...since the first time I saw Him, in a large life-size photo, I confess that I fell in love with Him very strongly and I could never get Him out of my heart again.

HpS/ASA - Oh!! Don't worship this Krsna! He is very cunning boy. He will tease you and make you go crazy.

All glories to Sri Guru and Gouranga!

Pranam Guru Maharaj,

We two sisters are Nandi Mukhi DD and Nischinta Nitai DD from ISKCON Manipur.

Maharaj, as usual we are regularly attending morning SB class and online Bg class at 7PM everyday.

We always remember your instruction - "All we need is to get and give good association. Institution will follow from that" and we always try to speak something about Krishna to the innocent people as per your advice.

Maharaj we are very happy to learn from your book " Tava Pāche Pāche" that "Bharata Maharaj's fall down was because of vanity. He wanted to assume Krsna position as the well-wisher of living entities (BG5.29). "Why should Krsna be everyone's best friend? I am this deer's best friend"(page 87 " Tava Pāche Pāche". In the same way...

The above few lines open our eyes and enlightened us so much.

Thank you Guru Maharaj. We are eagerly waiting to see you in India soon.

Lastly may Lord Krishna be listened to our silent prayer for your long, happy and healthy life so as to enable you to fulfill Srila Prabhupada's mission more and more .

Hare Krishna.

Begging to remain your

servant birth after birth.

Nandi Mukhi DD

HpS - Thank, agtSP, you! You are making incomparable contribution to Lord Caitanya's movement, which is changing the world!

Do you follow us on Twitter (no "X") as 'huber_robinson', which is our civil name, name of our 'donkey'?

Please send some more news from time to time.

Everyone one wants to hear about Radha Madhava and Their pastimes, Holy Dhama.

Do you have any Sankirtan partners in Mayapura?

All Glory to Srila Prabhupad, All Glory to Sankirtan Movement by Sri Gaura Nitay.

Please accept my humbles obeisances.

Dear Gurudeva: Thanks for your tireless exemplary life.

HpS/ASA 🐵 🐖 🐖 - Haw! Haw! Haw Ray!!!! Are mostly tired. Struggling with what little energy we have to honor Prasdam better, more honestly; reduce our material sense gratification; sleep less!

AgtSP!!!!!!

I keep trying to learn from the devotees, I started reading the Srimad Bhagavatam again, and I continue trying to make good rounds, I have followed your lectures at facebook and youtube. Your instructions are very valuable.

HpS - Super thanks to ASA Carnival for their publication work. AgtSP for 99.999999% of anything useful we say.

I have some doubts:

What is the proper Ekadasi etiquette. If you didn't know what day was Ekadasi and you ate grains before you knew it, It is appropriate to fast from that moment or not. What should be done in such a situation?

HpS - AS far as I know should definitely not eat anymore grains. It is like accidentally stabbing your self in the foot. You don't want go on shooting yourselfe but now intentionally.

And What do you do if the day changes while traveling? For example if Ekadasi is tomorrow at the source site, but at the destination site is today when you arrives ekadasi it's over, or in another situation when at origin place is Ekadasi but at destination place is Ekadasi tomorrow, is ekadasi for two days?

HpS - I don't know the details. Hope others might send us a note here, but would suggest that you follow the timings from where you start.

If you eat grains on Ekadasi, then you should do and Ekadasi fasting on Trayodasi, not Dvadasi, to compensate.

Thanks a lot your crew member

Aniruddhakrsna Das

HpS - Always so nice to hear from you.

Reading CC, KRSNA book, TLC, regularly is also reading the Bhagavatam. Get little habits eg. Little TLC every day before Mangala arati. Little Krsna book every night before going to sleep. etc. etc. You will become addicted. Feel practical, eternal, purification of your intoxication!

Come on!

Time to become Goswami!

Guru!



Hare Krishna dear Gurudev !💪

please accept my humble obeisances🙏

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !🙌

How are you? I hope you are in very good health and also your Sankirtan being excelent.

Nowadays we are visiting Mayapur-Dham, we came here to attend the Goura Purnima festival, i came with my wife Narayani Gourapremi dd. And It has been very special to come to this sacred place, meet with so nice devotees, taking darshan of Maha Panca-tattva in Mangalartik has been extremely special and I think of great benefit for our spiritual advancement. Now we are on our way to Vrindavan Safari🎉

🎉

🎉

. I hope I can get your blessings to attend this safari properly. Then we will return to Mayapur for a few more days and then we will go back to Paraguay-South America🛫

🛬

, lot of service and work to do there.

Thank you for allowing me to share my report and news with you. 🙏

Your servant

Vijaya Govinda das.😁

HpS/ASA - Super, super, super! Thank you!!!

The picture of Srila Prabhupada's Ambassador car in Mayapura is great.

Please write a journal of as many things as you can. Even if they seem ordinary now. In the next few years they will be incredible to read.

Hope you make good connections with many devotees and become a Sankirtan man on the level of Narada muni!

Hare Krsna, Maestro!

The Video and Film Production, B.S., at MTSU is ranked #197 (out of 540) in the United States, which makes it be in the top 40%.

HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna! That is so high!

Their curriculum is hard to judge because descriptions are too generic and short. They don't mention the expertise level of the faculty members. But they are considered to offer one of the best online Bachelor’s in Communications.

I also learned that MTSU is well known for some science careers, and for recording and performing arts. My opinion is that it will do the job, not at the highest level, but with high efficiency that shoud be boosted with the proactivity of the interested student.

Hope this helps.

Haribol!

HpS - Helps! It is a 900% improvement for our NIOS Strategy. We hope that our NIOS friends and members take full note of this. Sri Hari Das arrives this Wednesday. He was like Dean of Engineering, an expert in Hydrology, and retired from his post in India just a few days ago.

He and his family are very, very, seriously looking at locating her to join this NIOS project.

We can start sending more reports once he is here.

We will share this report.

Again thank you and give us help and direction any way you see fit.

TB/ASA - What's the news since you passed through Europe? Reached South India O.K.?

[3/29] Traveling Contractor - Hare Krishna, Maharaja and Prabhus! Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to you all.

My family and friends decided to throw a party to celebrate my 90th birthday over my objection. 

I was able to get hold of a jeweler to make the ornaments for Lord Narasimha Deva for our Houston Temple. On Tuesday we were able to get the metal cantilevered frame for both the small altars and yesterday purchased the teak wood needed for the work.

The workers won't start work until Monday because of the holidays culminating on the Easter day.

With the heat index, every day temperature is around 108 degrees or more. So, getting out of the house is almost impossible

ASA/TB - 🐒👍👍👍

Meeting anyone curious about what is life?
