Delta's Answer

8 years, 5 months ago by hps in Calendar Development

Hare Krsna!  Hare Rama!

It took almost one month for the answer from Delta, and it seems that they have a poorly paid employee who reads many letters like ours daily and then picks a form letter and fills in some spaces in the letter with extracts from the complaint letter and then gives a token compensation of Sky Miles and goes on to the next letter. It is actually funny, crazy! How can people exist like this? Of course, they can't. Marsha does this out of fear of death and starvation and humiliation and abandonment and drowns her sorrows in some form of intoxication.

We would say that the best preaching strategy in these situations is the one that it appears Prahlad Maharaja adopted when preaching to his father: Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (7.5.30) and the few accompanying texts. Apparently he did not think his father would accept his comments, but at least he heard the truth and at some point it would have an effect.

In Vrndavana Dhama only Krsna and Balarama kill demons. Everyone else just calls, "Hare Krsna!   Hare Rama!". . . unless K/B empower us to kill demons.

                  Whhooooosh@     Bang!     Gronk!!!       SMashHH!

Dear Dr. Robinson,

RE: Case Number 22345393

Thanks for your email letting us know about your scheduled trip from IAH with Air France. I'm really sorry your flight was delayed. I realize how frustrating it was to be rerouted to travel with KLM via Amsterdam, and because you had to wait so long in line when you arrived, you missed your connection with Jet Airways to Delhi and ended up spending the night at the airport. It's also disappointing to hear that you didn't get the care you were expecting when you were delayed.

I will be sure to forward your concerns on to our Airport Customer Service Leadership Team, so they can consider your experience when making needed changes to improve our service. 

Bonus Miles 
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but we're unable to offer a complimentary upgrade or ticket as you've requested. As a goodwill gesture, I’m adding 20,000 bonus miles to your SkyMiles account. They should be transferred into your account within three business days.  

We love that you're a SkyMiles member. We will do our best to serve you well on your next flight with us.

Regards,

Marsha Smith

Were came in to IAH from Mexico on UA1025. The whole trip from Mexico to Delhi should have taken 24-hours. It took 68-hours. We were routed five times and had to pass two nights in benches in airports. In IAH Delta wrote us over to KLM. KLM gave us IAH boarding pass but said to to KLM counter in Amsterdam for Delhi boarding pass. We did. KLM left IAH two hours late and were had to wait in line at Amsterdam transfer desk for two hours. When we got to desk they said that we had missed the flight and would have to Peru for a new ticket. We explained that it was there delay. They waived the new cost but would not give room for the night. After will night in the airport we fought for our new boarding pass, now with Jet Airways. Got it but art the gate they rebooked us on a flight to Mumbai with connection to Delhi. Connection to Delhi was cancelled and rebooked for a flight six hours later. We're like 70-years old. We had symptoms of a attack by the time this was over. We are here in India to lecture at several universities. We're monks for 40-years and can find happiness and value in any situation. In the sake of fair play for the faults of KLM and Jet can you upgrade us to First or Business classed on the way back. Thank you.

Hare Krsna!!!
 

AgtSP...   Paoho....   It is 2.36AM in room 303 of the ISKCON Kolkata Guest House.  Fan is grinding out a torturous noise, the only place to charge the cell phone and this computer is an outlet high-up on the bathroom wall, above the toilet.

Strange!

Improvisational Theater.  Next lifetime we will be in Goloka???   Maybe Gokula...   ... ... Pune, Navi-mumbai, were all very successful. We met with Prof. Joe Periera who created and manages the Kripa Foundation. They help people with AIDS and chemical dependency etc. He runs one of the three Jungian Centers in India. He also was awarded the Padma Sri in like 2009.

Our vision is going pretty fast.

Respiration is not deep. We learned a LOT from joining a Sub-Mumbai Rathayatra: You CAN chant and dance from your soul. It doesn't have to be super intense, but nice, for Krsna. We applied this in chanting our Japa on the airplane. If you can chant and dance for four hours in front of Jagannatha, then certainly you chant chant and dance for two hours while sitting  on the airplane. It worked. We had to chant slower but it was deep. Like internal Kirtan.  [infernal kirtan]

Can't hear much at all on the airplane. Injun Roars!    Gotta cover your ears to chant.

= = =

This is the last week of this India Tour. Still no news from Delta. Guess we take the Pathway Through the Valley of Death (Economy Seating Alone) on the way back.

Haw!   Haw!   Hare!
 

we got six rounds done. we got the rhythm of this splendid kolkata temple pretty well. maybe get seven rounds done before mangala arati. then the rest during b'cari japa sanga after mangala arati. meet with doyal, purusottama, get soap and razors to shave. iron our silchar set for presidency college. get the pptx ready. meet with mukund and dr. samaresh. print the promo brochure for NIOS's books and our tickets for CCU-DEL and DEL-IAH.  hk, hk kkhh / hr, hr rrhh . . .

= = =

The Big Brown Bear would wash his hair in creek spanked water Sunday.
So bedecked he would say, "What the Heck!" and go to the Temple quite Dunday.

"Hurray Krsna!   Hurray Rama!"

 Always hear Nama Radha-Shyama!

[Battery 50%] Back to the toilet to recharge... =]]]but no, or maybe one, mosquitos. not hot. fresh water. private cave. TPP Composition Book on page 67. ]]]-  

     Where is Sita?     Presidency College???

Will Miguel Polo Edit an even better 'Solaris II'?

             Raquel the Rabbit?

The Blue Babboon?    Ulysses. Merco -Sur?       No URGENT letters on the Blog.   Presidency College.

ASA-Perú little urgent

Hare Krishna, dear Gurumaharaja. Pamho. AGTSP!

I'm looking forward to have your assotiation again by ASA FMP. Now, I'm doing it myself and some days in the temple.

I've have a nice conversation with Karuna Krishna Prabhu about education and we agreed to work together as ASA under your protection and blessings. I'm nobody, practically nothing, without your protection.

I'm presenting myself as a member of ASA-Perú and I'm thinking of join people together in a conglomerate as ASA-Perú with a broad perspective, no attachements or administration bandages for now. In time, I think, people that really want to work together can get together in a more formal team. I still have the desire to have a formal institution in peruvian educative system. I have to be a little patient cause experience tells me that the most difficult part is to create a team. I've been in several that couldn't become something lasting.  

As M. Yugala suggested and talking to Karuna Krishna Prabhu, seems that Maturesh Prabhu is a nice option for Bhakti sastri examiner. I think that if we create a team around him we can work well. Again, it should be as ISKCON-Perú.

I hope your sankirtan is going well, and please, your blessing for mine.

Thank you for being always there for me when I need you. I want to be a help for you not a burden.

Trying to be a decent disciple,

Laksmana-agraja

HPS - ASA -- Hare Krsna!   AGTSP.   paoho.   It is very nice to hear from you. We went out early to talk with one Diocean Catholic Priest. He has the Kripa Foundation. It is the biggest NGO in India with 169 branches. They counsel and very much help people with chemical addiction and aids. He is head of one of the three Jungian groups in India and it turns out he is friends with Radha-natha Swami. We will work with his organization. Then we changed some small Rupee notes into big Rupee notes and visited a professor of Harsh's at the IIT Bombay Campus. One of the top three institutions in the country. He also appreciated Solaris very much and is very doing work in objective scientific verification of yoga. He likes Srila Prabhupada's books.  Home through rush hour like Lima traffic. It is 35 degrees Celcius here in February. 

We are really 70-years old. Can die of heart failure anytime, but in general O.K.

Go ahead with your own Sankirtan relationship with Srila Prabhupada with the perspective of your friends in ISKCON and the ISKCON institution, GBC et al. We may be able to see Jayapataka Swami in Mayapura.

Navi Mumbai.
Hare Hare, Hare Krsna!!!
We are in Navi Mumbai. The area is Mumbai and Navi mumbai, then all kinds of subdivision. If we want we can re-localize society in the village, country and things can be quite nice. There can be village crafts, musical instrument makers, village, back-yard, foundery casting Kartals, scissors etc. Yes there can be televisions, Srila Prabhupada says, 2-3 dozen for the whole world.

We just smashed our foot against the leg-foot of the bed in the the middle of the side of the bed for the third time!   It is like where it should not be. This time we scraped by a piece of skin the size of a big match head. On the Vraja-mandala-parikrama it was happening all the time, foot scrapes, punctures. We learned to ignore them. Thoughts of illicit sex will trail us to the point of death because of the birth we have taken, but if we engage in devotional service they won't bother us.

The India Tour continue. Here it is 87% local temple programs. Was the same in Pune, but here we have the broader association of Rama-giri-dhari Das x MOE, Goloka Education. The new ISKCON temple here is growing 8-stories tall by 10 acres fat!  Now we are going to Rathayatra. Where ever we go people have a loud Kirtan and garland to greet us and then special seat of honor. They we have to say something extraordinary. The only justification for all this we can assume is that Srila Prabhupada has made a silk purse out of a sow's ear.   NIOS - DSB - Psychology and the Sacred work continues.

Summary- Srimad Bhagavatam Review

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

We started our regular Srimad Bhagavatam review classes here at Boise Temple. Following is the summary of Introduction, preface, 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 as discussed last Sunday.

Introduction and Preface:

  • Srila Prabhupada's  purports are relevant for anybody at anytime.
  • Srimad Bhagavatam is the spiritual communism.
  • Material scientists are unsuccessful in finding ultimate truth
  • Srimad Bhagavatam has to be read sequentially.
  • This is the only scripture that talks about absolute truth right from page 1.
  • Book bhagavatam should be understood with the help of person Bhagavatam (Lord Chaitanya)


Text 1:

  • Srila Prabhupada elaborates on [meaning the word] Vasudeva.
  • Vasudeva is the Cause of all causes
  • Srimad bhagavatam is the commentary on Vedanta sutra
  • Origin of creation is also discussed in the purport.
  • Matsya Purana also refers to Srimad Bhagavatam. So Srimad Bhagavatam is older than Matsya Purana.
     

Text 2:

  • First 2 slokas are 30% of the entire chapter.
  • Srimad Bhagavatam starts where Bhagavad-gita ends. Reject all material religions.



Thank you,

Your servant,

Sundari Radhika dd.

HpS - We sent our thoughts about Verses 3-7 and posted them here. We, HPS, Monkey/Piggy, are so much dulled by association with matter that our intelligence is not alive to the SB so much. This Sanga will change this.

Urgente

Hare Krishna Gurudev

Por favor acepte Mis humildes reverencias a Sus Pies de loto

Toda Gloria a Srila Prabhupada

El motivo de Urgente es por que El Prabhu Lomasha quiere hablar con Usted  de alguna manera , por skipe o whats app u otra posibilidad, pienso que es por asuntos familiares con su hijo

a Su servicio Adi Yajña Das

HPS - Es casi impossible para nosotros mientras estamos viajando. Primero el tiene que enviar por parte de otro o su misma una explicacion general de lo que quiere hablar. Es casi cierto que no podemos contribuir consejo particular a el por que no conocemos la situacion particular!
