Sarasvati Puja!!
NOD CHAPTER SEVEN

These are the first principles of Sadhana Bhakti. So many relate in the beginning to Guru and Sadhu.

In his definition of a Guru SP sets the standard from NIO 1.

Accepting Only What Is Necessary
This starts with NIO-2, no? Niyāma agrah.
“It is better if one fixes up a regulative principle according to his own ability and then follows that vow without fail. That will make him advanced in spiritual life.” – This is not for a devotee on the standard of initiation, no?

Muy urgente NIMSAR y nuevos desafíos

8 years, 5 months ago by YugalaKD in Hot Topics

HK PAOHO

Querido Gurudeva, como siempre lo extrañamos, aquí entre calor y humedad, sin agua y huico de Chosica, estamos saliendo pocas horas a distribuir libros con Mitravinda y una bhaktina a buses y retomamos nuestro servicio en Wilson. Después de una conversación con la administración de Wilson quedamos en muy buenos términos. Hablamos con P. Deva Deva encargado de educación e invitó a NIMSAR a colaborar con el INSTITUTO DE ESTUDIOS VAISNAVAS BHAKTIVEDANTA, en el templo de Wilson, habrá una sala destinada a dictar BS, Pada Padma, etc. los miembros que deseen de NIMSAR dictarán a mediados de Febrero una vez por semana, y las autoridades están de acuerdo incluso con  nuestros precios. Entonces es algo muy favorable. NIMSAR debe continuar contestando este acuerdo con Wilson.

Por otro lado, tuve una muy buena conversación con madre Isvari, y pude entender sus necesidades y ella se tomara un tiempo, es mamá y también se está incorporando al servicio en wilson, e igual quedó como colaboradora de NIMSAR, y como siempre se fajo en año pasado en su servicio a NIMSAR, desde que la conocí ella siempre da todo de sí misma.

Gurudeva Ud. nos dio un hermoso regalo NIMSAR, por ello es muy preciado y es una extensión de la predica de Ud. y en lo que a mí respecta, ni he renunciado y estoy tratando de rectificar, entender el comportamiento de los miembros, sus necesidades y siempre esforzarme por mejorar como devota. Me sorprende la medida al estilo del chino de LAD, que esperamos sea propia del calor y huico del momento, pensamos que es temporal, y ansiamos el regreso del Jedi/s. Entonces, la función debe continuar, también en febrero continuamos enseñando BS on line. 

Algo que hay que tener en cuenta es que el asesor y principal cabeza de NIMSAR es Ud. y la última palabra la tiene Ud. así que continuamos nuestro servicio a NIMSAR- ASA- HpS. Y cuando venga a Perú, otros miembros de NIMSAR Madre Rohini y M Ananga hablaran con Ud. sobre la administración de los exámenes, que seguro pueden continuar con el nuevo examinador, con la venia de Ud., si ellas desean.

Mil disculpas, por nuestras ofensas, con su ayuda y la de los devotos lo lograremos. Por favor denos sus bendiciones para continuar sirviéndolo con humildad y colaboración.

Esperamos su arritmia y salud en general mejore y el santo dham lo proteja.

Dear Gurudeva, as we always miss, here between hot and humid, without water and Chosica hual, we are leaving a few hours to distribute books with Mitra and a bhaktina to buses and we resume our service in Wilson. After a conversation with the Wilson administration we were on very good terms. We speak with Fr. Deva Deva in charge of education and I invite NIMSAR to collaborate with the VAISNAVAS BHAKTIVEDANTA INSTITUTE OF STUDIES, in the temple of Wilson, there will be a room destined to dictate BS, Pada Padma, etc. Members wishing to NIMSAR will dictate in mid-February once a week, and authorities agree even with our prices. Then it is very favorable. NIMSAR must continue to respond to this agreement with Wilson.

On the other hand, I had a very good conversation with mother Isvari, and I could understand her needs and she would take time, she is a mom and she is also joining the service in Wilson, and she stayed as a NIMSAR collaborator, Last year in her service to NIMSAR, since I met her she always gives everything of herself.

Gurudeva You gave us a beautiful NIMSAR gift, so it is very precious and is an extension of your preaching and as far as I am concerned, I have not given up and I am trying to rectify, understand the behavior of the members, their Needs and always strive to improve as a devotee. I am surprised by the Chinese style of LAD, which we hope is typical of the heat and air of the moment, we think it is temporary, and we look forward to the return of the Jedi / s. Then, the function must continue, also in February we continue to teach BS on line.

Something that must be taken into account that the adviser and main head of NIMSAR is you and the last word you have it so we continue our service to NIMSAR-ASA-HpS. And when you come to Peru, other members of NIMSAR Mother Rohini and M Ananga will talk with you about the administration of the exams, which they can safely continue with the new examiner, with your permission, if they wish.

A thousand apologies, for our offenses, with your help and that of the devotees we will succeed. Please give us your blessings to continue to serve you with humility and collaboration.

We hope your arrhythmia and overall health will improve and the holy dham will protect you.

HPS - Hare Krsna. We can't work out details. If NIMSAR is to run then 1. We must have a President, Secretary/Treasurer and report to ASA Blog each Ekadasi.

Super Urgente!!!!!!!!!!!!!NIMSAR on suspension

Hare Krishna, dear Gurumaharaj, Pamho, AGTSP!

After many days of meditation I, we, decided to not work as a group (NIMSAR) any longer. Painful decision, but realistic.

It was a good name, we did good things together, gained some reputacion, etc, but continuos desagreements were holding back our development.  

It was too much. I tried, believe me, I tried really hard. But enough is enough.

I've always have your injuctions in my heart regarding this topics. I took all them into consideration. 

However, I'll continue my job as a teacher. We have to work on details, etc. 

If you allow me I can teach with your study guides as member of ASA. I have a nice relatonship with my authorities in Chosica and they agreed to work with me.

My idea is to help Junta Nacional to be again examination center. I'll do my best to work  with authorities in a nice relationship. I think that Krishna wants that, a healthy cooperative work. I was never happy with the idea to work only through NIMSAR cause is a hazel (hassle) working with the administration.

The easy way out is "to hell with all this. I can work in a nice school for at least $1000  or $1,500 a month"

But no, I want to work for Prabhupada as much as I can. Giving all my time possible. Having the chance to manage muy time as I desire.

I don't know. I'm probably wrong.

Well, that's for now.

Please, forgive me.

I couldn't do much about this.

your servant

ASA - Commando -- Seems cool to us. Let us hear what your determination is and the determination of your partner soon. 

ABC Saturday Morning Workshop. . .

.... has now become a Sunday morning Workshop with the Boise Temple as announced below:

Hare Krishna Prabhus and Matajis:

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Thanks to Hanuman Swami's efforts and desire that New Biharvan devotees associate together and review Srimad Bhagavatam at least once a week, some of us have agreed to meet at 11:15 AM on Sundays to do the same. This will change the Sunday feast schedule slightly and as Hanuman Swami had pointed out it will in fact the feast even more meaningful and joyous. Please see the new schedule below and join us for some nice sangha:

Sunday feast schedule:
    11:00 AM         Srila Prabhupada Guru Puja and kirtan
    11:15 AM        Srimad Bhagavatam review - 30 minutes
    11:45 AM         Sunday Feast class (BG or other topical Krishna Katha)
    12:30 PM          AArti and Nrsimha Prayers
    1:00  PM          Announcements
    1:15  PM          Feast

The plan is to take turns (by initiated devotees) to do Guru Puja, kirtan, SB review and the feast lecture.

Murari Prabhu and Mother Kamagyatri will make sure that Guru Puja aarti plate etc. is ready and will be back up for doing the Guru Puja. Cleanup of the plate after the AArti will be done by whoever is doing the AArti. For Guru Puja, review, kirtan and feast lecture proper devotee attire is required 

For this coming Sunday the 29th, I am proposing:

Srinivas Prabhu to do the Guru Puja

Anantarupa das to do the SB review. I would like to start the review and lead the discussion with SB from the beginning 1.1.1 - thru 1.1.5. 

Mother Acyuta to give the feast lecture.

Krishna is very happy when devotees get together, specially when it is the desire of His dear devotees such as HH Hanuman Swami; please join us. Also feel free to invite others; the invitees can try out but ultimately they should be willing to come regularly. The sangha (until 11:45) is for regular attendance of like minded devotees with desire to taste SB nectar and association of devotees. Please let me know if you plan to attend
