HpS - ASA -- O.K.  Let's look at the two other letters.

Amado Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis más humildes reverencias. TLGSP

     Ya que usted da su conformidad con la organización de la iniciación, seguiremos adelante con ello. También quisiera decirle que me siento muy feliz de que usted esté emocionado por venir. Yo estoy tan contenta, que no puedo dejar de pensar en ello. Algunas noches apenas puedo dormir pensando en todo lo que tenemos planeado. Si Krisna me lo permite, estaré el jueves en la universidad, el sábado en casa de Jayanta, el domingo en el templo y después en N. Vrajamandala hasta que usted se vaya. 

     Por favor, dígame si le gustaría hacer un harinam en Madrid o cuando lo menciona en su carta solo lo está recordando.

     Su humilde servidora, Hare Krisna.

HpS - ASA - Claro, Sankirtan in Madrid es bueno. Solamente co-ordinar con Janardana, Jayanta!

-6 grados a las 10AM manyana!
Vamanos a las demas cartas!!!      Medita en Draupadi, Kunti, Gandhari!

Querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias. TLGSP

     Tal como usted me dijo, hablé con Jarandana ayer para organizar lo de mi iniciación. A nosotros nos parecería bien que fuera el domingo día 9 a las 12:00, antes del programa del templo de Madrid.

HpS - ASA -  Sva Ha!   Sacrificio del Ser Humano!

Pensamos que es un día, lugar y hora en la que pueden asistir los devotos con facilidad (eso es muy importante para mí [NOSOTROS TAMBIEN]). También hablé con Sadhuvadya Prabhú para preguntarle si él podría hacer la ceremonia del fuego y me dijo que si. Así que , si usted está de acuerdo, podríamos hacerlo de esta manera.

HpS - ASA - Super!   Realmente estoy sentiendo muy emocionante pensar en Espiritu Sano, todo. Vamos en Hari Nama con banderas, distribuir volantes, Prasadam, hablar con la gente, libros. No deseas nada mas.

     Por otro lado, creo que la organización de la visita es muy apropiada ya que están bien distribuidas las actividades y para usted no supondrá un esfuerzo demasiado grande por lo que también podrá descansar y disfutar de tiempo libre.

     Espero su respuesta acerca de si está de acuerdo con el día, hora y lugar para mi iniciación. Muchas gracias por su atención. Siempre a su servicio

Hare Krisna.

HpS - Somos de acuerdo.

All glories for you maharaj

Hare Krishna,

I’m David Leyton. I’m from Santiago of Chile. Please accept my humble reverence. Please, forgive me for my affront because of my ignorance.

HpS - We don't remember any affront. Is VERY nice to remember you and Santiago.

                Regarding Bg 2.40, I’d like to tell you about some changes that I’ve experienced thanks to Krishna Consciousness. This advance in my spiritual life has been fruitful compared to other spiritual practices that I followed before.

Before knowing about Krishna Consciousness, I used to meditate in silence and chant Om mantra to get harmony and inner peace. These kinds of practices gave me satisfaction, but I couldn’t escape from Karma.

All my life I’ve thought that courage, self-defense and carefulness are necessary to survive in this world, but because of Bhakti Yoga practice, I’ve noticed that the fear and self-defense that I used to feel when facing possible aggressions and hounding from other people has decreased. My self-esteem has increased as well as my confidence. Sometimes I feel that Krishna helped me to avoid certain people and adverse moments.

My senses are imperfect and damaged, I don’t want to get my hopes up too much, but since I’ve devoted myself to Prabhupada and followed some of his instructions, I feel that threats have decreased.

I’ve also noticed that devotees in the temple trust me now; I feel their esteem and affection.

I want to continue making progress in Krishna Consiousness, through bhakti yoga practice and without living the nightmares that I’ve experienced in this life, but living through love, in peace and sadhu sanga.

I hope that one day, this anger that torments me and  that reminds me all the sufferings that I’ve faced will desapear one day.

I hope that my answer could express what I think about the chapter you indicated me.

Please accept my sincerest service to you, Maharaj

Best regards

Hare Krishna.

HpS - Hare Krsna!!!    I could have written the same things!   I doesn't matter if we acheive some great thing in the Bhakti yoga, because at every step it is practical, and the goal becomes more and more clear. Even in the womb and as incapable infants we can make progress. How is your family?
