Dandavats Praṇāmas Mahārāja

1 year, 3 months ago by kazzymiro@ in Personal Sadhana Reports

Querido Mahārāja, espero se encuentre muy bien de Salud, sigo atendiendo las Deidades de Śrī Rādhā-Syamasundara en casa y cantando mis Rondas, desde la llegada de Sus Señorías a casa siento más apego por mi Sadhana, me es más fácil hacer mi Bajana, ya asta el personaje de Payaso cambio; me corte el pelo y ahora ya parezco Vaiṣṇava, estoy leyendo el Nectar de la Devoción y ya no debo tantas rondas, trato de ver las clases de su Santidad Yadunandana Svāmī Mahārāja aunque el horario en México Cdmx es a las 2:00 a.m.

cada vez me apego más a Su Santidad, es hermosa su Predica y tengo un poco de contacto con Prabhu Aditas.

Prabhu Akincana ya está en casa de sus Padres en Guadalajara y va mejorando.

Quiero agradecer su cobijo bajo sus Pies de Loto Mahārāja.

Es una bendición de Śrī Rādhā-Mādhana-Gopāla!!!

Esperamos la celebración de su aparición Trascendental en éste plano.

Todas las Glorias !!

JayA Śrīla Prabhupāda

Dear Mahārāja, I hope you are in very good health,


HpS - Spiritually, agtSP, we are making lots of progress and body is dwindling day by day. 


I continue to attend to the Deities of Śrī Rādhā-Syamasundara at home and chant my Rounds, since Their Lordships' arrival home I feel more attached to my Sadhana, it is easier for me to do my Bhajana, Even the Clown character changed; I cut my hair and now I look like a Vaiṣṇava,  I am reading the Nectar of Devotion and I no longer owe so many rounds, I try to watch the classes of His Holiness Yadunandana Svāmī Mahārāja although the time in Mexico City is at 2:00 a.m.


HpS - Very nice.


I become more and more attached to his Holiness, his Preaching is beautiful and I have a little contact with Prabhu Aditas.


HpS - Who is Aditas?


Prabhu Akincana is already at his parents' house in Guadalajara and is improving.


HpS  Well I guess that is good, but was hoping that he had died and gone to heaven, Nabadvipa!!

I want to thank you for sheltering me under his Lotus Feet Mahārāja.


It is a blessing from Śrī Rādhā-Mādhana-Gopāla!!!


We await the celebration of his Transcendental appearance on this plane.


HpS - It is now 99% finished and was great success, so many devotees had chance to talk. Now we have some things that will take all year to attend to. 

Hope to hear if rapid and steady progress in your Sankirtan!!!

Let us look at more letters!


All Glories!!

JayA Srila Prabhupada

Inquiry about the book of verses

1 year, 3 months ago by Isvari devi dasi in Special Category A

Hare krsna Dear Maharaja and ASA team.

Please accept my respectful obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

All glories to the service of the ASA team!


I am glad to know that he is better, although I know that brother donkey is advancing in age, even so I cannot help but feel concerned about your state of health.

The body of my diksa guru SS Bhaktibhusana Swami is also having health problems and he is can not to continue his tour of South America. He is now trying to recover his health in the city of Mendoza in Argentina so that he can later return to Germany.


Today in SB class, you mentioned about the book of verses that is in charge of Srinath prabhu.


ASA - AgtSP. His brother, Sri Rama Krsna Das


And I am writing to know if there will be a Spanish version? If possible we can help with the Spanish version. Here we have 3 devotees, who can help in translation, proofreading (from English to Spanish), editingin and publication


HpS/ASA - It is 99% Sanskrit. It is just the Sanskrit for the verses as they are cited in the Texts of NOI. So you can refresh your memory and then the source is cited eg. BG 18.66, so that you can look there for more details.

Then it has the first line of the verses in alphabetic, not NOI Text, order in the back and their BBT location and page number in the little study guide itself.


The Amazon version is like 99% ready. It just needs for the picture on the front cover to have a little more margin at the top, the Maha-mantra to also be included in the verses listed and a link for free download of an A4/USA Letter Size format that you can just print for free.


We can also help in distribution according to how you indicate.


We offer our help as a way to collaborate in your great service, if necessary.

Thank you very much for all your dedication and help in our spiritual life.


Sri Nrsimhadeva protect you.

Whit apreciation and respectful darling

NIOS Campus development

1 year, 3 months ago by shatakshi in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

Maharaj, PAMHO AGTSP!


Maharaj to respond to your last letter, my kalari training will complete end of this year, but I plan to leave it in June/July so I can begin PHD.


HpS - AgtSP. That seems fine to us 🐵 🐽 . . .👴. . Whatever training you have you can apply in performance, "Laura Croft - Tomb Raider", for Sankirtan, or you can teach. If you need more training in the style, you can go back and get more.


I

was

thin

king to start courses like this of dance, yoga, kalari at the local universities. This video is of my Mandi IIT students performing after only 1 week of training: https://youtu.be/5pygNfutTs4?si=Hb25lReqPFYO-jF3 (the audio and video are out of sync). Of course it was an intensive course and these students are very diligent also but we can attract a lot of people through Krsna lunch, dance, kalari, yoga, painting, sculpting, cooking, philosophy type of courses.


HpS/ASA - In conversation with NgD and ShD and HpS, NgD suggested that if we get a store front across the street from our 902 Hillcrest Dr. office we can teach from there. There is already a very successful dance school there.

Focus = Little girls but all kinds of classes.

NgD also seemed assured you can teach at MTSU.

Of course would be great if your family could rent or buy [to keep or resell] one of the houses on Hillcrest.



This is a systems map of the campus I envisioned to create for Natyasala 7 years ago: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16s-GrFoIcTrJLlUr_Vg1MJW7rXAh5eJM/view?usp=drivesdk


This is a map of Govardhan-ecovillage. I think a lot of the spaces they have: goshala, gardens, temples, eateries, various levels of luxury vacation rooms, sustainability plants etc can serve as goals for our NIOS campus. Please share with us your esteemed perspective 🙏🏻. https://drive.google.com/file/d/18W6hgQiwWQ60GMgv7L8XOoSyzvVVLPTN/view?usp=drivesdk


HpS/ASA - The only idea that comes to our mind was like a horseshoe with NIOS Campus property in the middle pointing out onto the road.

This would facilitate like 30 residential students {idle rich or kids who can get scholarships etc}, 30-weekend seminar students working the rest of the time online for certificates.

Then around NIOS core would be like seven properties privately owned, controlled, by people who want to participate in the NIOS perspective. Could be Vanaprastha families et al.

Then, outside of that would be land for everyone to share gardens, orchards, animal husbandry, larger workshops.


Then. . . purchase where other plots are available within 10-twelve minutes etc, by bicycle. Then. . . other groups eg. four Grhastha families, could buy a plot and develop their own project.

An FM radio station with range of maybe five miles.

Bong! 💥
