HpS - ASA - http://www.vedabase.com/en/bg/12/6-7 always impressed us. We don't have to think too much about, "What we should be doing?". We just look at the postion that Krsna has arranged for us, chant HK/HR and do whatever service we can do there, then Krsna, QUICKLY, will give us intelligence how to improve our situation, service.
Can someone get a USA/Spain adapter for our computer plug?
We will post more suggestions about the visit!
 

Hare Krishna Dear Gurumaharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Got reply from Spanish BBT. Waiting for book. Once we got it we will start to import it.

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

ASA - HpS --- O.K!   We look for Editor's

HpS - ASA --- Can you put TLC up on Vedabase.com in Spanish???

Prahlad-nrsmha Das -- Yes. I will write to Spanish BBT if they can send me latest files for TLC.

My wife can import TLC book if nobody will be available, but it will be better and faster if Spanish speaking devotee could import it. It is very easy (non-technical person can learn in few minutes), yet time consuming task.

Would you like to help us with posting message on blog to get some helpers? Maybe some devotees will like to help and can import TLC and any other Spanish books, as for new version everything needs to be imported to have paragraph synchronization with other languages and also we got files for Srimad Bhagavatam where many errors were corrected.

HpS - ASA --- This is fantastic opportunity, no?  Join Vedabase.com.

Querido Gurudeva por favor acepte mis reverencias, estamos reportandonos después de su visita a México, una vez mas muchas gracias por aceptar estar presente en la ceremonia de matrimonio nos sentimos muy afortunados y bendecidos....Amara Prabhu y yo estamos tratando de ponernos más serios respecto a la adoración de la deidad en casa y yo retome mi servicio en el pujari los sábados por la mañana en el templo, tratamos de que Lilavara escuché lo más posible el maha mantra.

HpS - ASA -- It is very nice to do service in the Temple. It gives nice contrast to see the standard in your house.

Hace ya una semana nos regalaron una Govardan Shila , y quiero pedirle permiso para adorarla, Amara Prabhu hablo con su maestro espiritual SS Guru Prasad Swami y el le autorizó adorarla, pero yo quiero saber que piensa Usted respecto a que yo lo haga de la misma manera, me siento sin ninguna cualif icación para hacerlo y no quiero hacer nada sin su autorización. 

Su aspirante a sirviente Saranagati Dasi

HpS - Adorar Govardhana Sila es muy serio. If the Sila is offended there can be great loss of money, debts, legal problems and death in the family. If you have clean character; nice rounds, strict principles, then it is very easy. It is like having a child in the family. You can't feed him when you want to. It is not a toy!    Ooof!  But is can also be very, very, very nice and natural if your character is good, if you are a lady and gentleman.

All Gloris to Sri Guruji Maharaja and Gouranga Mahaprabhu

Radha Krsna Ki Jay and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay

Dandavat Pranam, Guruji Swami Maharaja!

HpS - ASA --  Sri Sri Sri Sri Manipuri Bhakta-vrnda, Ki Jai!!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Shree Guruji's padmacharan that I had read Guruji's letter with asirbad and informed to all bhaktas and matagis. Now, I have to complete the reading of the book "Maya : The Divine energy of the Supreme" written by Bhakti Purusattam Swami. As Guruji already told me that Maya has two forms : Yoga -maya (Radharani) and Maha-maya (Druga). After reading this book I have some ideas of what is Material World and how we could cross this deep and vast material ocean. In every relegious books of ISKCON, it is clearly mentioned that Guru is the only means to relief from this material world. Under His guidance, we should surrender to Guruji and Krsna. According to our degree of surrendering and service to Krsna we can become a true or pure bhakta. It is the only means.

HpS - Lord Nityananda, Balarama, is the original Guru. all others are His representatives. Lord Jesus Christ did austerities for 40-days then the Devil came and personally tempted him into evil, bu he resisted, but he did not start his preaching. He traveled to where Saint John, the Baptist, (Diksa) was giving Diksa to many many people. When Jesus approached him for Diksa, John could see that he was Shakti-avesa avatar and told Jesus that he was not qualified to give him Diksa, that he, John, was not qualified to touch his shoes.
Jesus said, 'Yes, it is a fact, but so that everything is correct, it must be done.' So even Lord Jesus Christ accepted a Diksa guru.

I am answering Guruji's questions. My best time for chanting is after santhya prayer : after returning from office. In the morning after mangal arati at home, three rounds are compulsory. Guru bandana, Siksha Astakama, five sloka of Brahma Sanhita, All Slokas of NOI, the eight names of Gosvamis, eilght names of Mahantas, eight names of Sakhis, Manjaris, eight names of sevas, eight names of dress of a sanyasis, eight names of directions, eight names of Yoga.

I am going every Sunday at Thoubal Mandir not Imphal. Our team contributes one Sunday's prasadam of the bhaktas. Shortly we will start sankirtana before starting the normal programmes of the Ashram.

From time to time, please advice us to increase our spiritual knowledge.

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das.

Further, I want to know Gurudeva,  how we can be a medium adhikari (bhakta) from a kaniska adhikari?  

Before this book I had read Shree Shree Premacandrka of Nartotam Thakur Pranit translated in to Manipur by S. Gouramani Sharma. In this book the three characters of Shri Lokanath Goswami, Shri Nivas Acharya and  Shyamananda Prabhu. The bhakti marga darshan of prabhu Narotam Das. This book is realy a book of  bhakti seva of Krsna. It is very helpful to me.

HpS - Yes, seems like very nice book!!!   You become Madhyama adhikari by doing the same thing that you do as a Kanistha adhikari, but with more purified senses, mind, heart. NOI Text 7 > NOI Text 8.   At second initiation we are just becoming Madhyama adhikari. Do you have regular Deity worship at home?  What schedule?  Details??
