Letters to the editor

Querido Gurumaharaja: 

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhuada! 

Hemos leído el Kapi Dhvaja . 

Respecto a las noticias sobre la distribución de la revista Solaris , justamente estamos en plática con madre Lalita Gopi, analizando las estrategias para este fin. Hemos entregado algunas revistas a Prabhu Gadhadara Gosai de Monterrey y a Krsna Kirtana para Uruapan.  Disculpe por favor el retraso . Enviaremos más noticias prontamente. 

Por otro lado , queremos decirle que estamos muy emocionados y muy felices que Ud mencione a México como la propuesta del lugar  para la celebración del auspicioso Sri Vyasa puja, 30 de Diciembre .  Es una gran bendición !!!   En medio de las tinieblas,  aparece un enorme rayo de luz  iluminado por Sus bendiciones e infinita misericordia que nos acerca más a Srila Prabhupada y a Sri Krsna. Millones de gracias querido Gurumaharaja!!!! Estaremos atentos a Sus instrucciones. 

Disculpe nuestras ofensas por favor. 

Su eterna aspirante a sirviente 

Asta Sakhi dd. 

HpS - Es 30 Deciembre. Cuando termina el Marathon? Podemos celebrar in Monterrey, Guadalajara, Mexico, Pueblo Aravinda, no?  Depende en cual comunidad gana el Marathon.  Ha!  Ha!  Hare!     O podemos utilizar otra criteria.

Gracias!  Esperando su respuesta.

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva

PAMHO

Thank U for ur DTC we feel that U are always with us. So we do not feel so lonely

I have my ups and downs. Sorry for not writing as before the thing is that I do not have anything important to communicate.. just that i continue trying to fight with maya with depression,etc... i have tried many things.. but as my coach says if I try so so many things then you can not focus in the most important thing. So i just remember what u always say FOCUS ON YOUR PRIORITIES

Basically I have an acceptable FMP. 4p ok i am delay on my rounds :(

I do seva at home. Give Bg class once a month in wilson .Collaborate in the festivals at the temple. Tutor BS. Sorry for not doing more.

Now I am like trying to connect with nature. I have always been attracted to gems. Astrology things like that. So I have gems that helps a lot. And i am learning how to use them. I would like to be an hollistic therapist. Also coaching. I like to help people so I may not think in my own problems. My mind is sooo heavy sometimes... I practice yoga... aromatherapy all these things help me. Some say that i am crazy. They call me a witch sometime.

HpS - In traditional English there are White Witches and Black Witches.  Sam in Spanish?    We had a pearl attached to your Japa beads one year and it reduced our allergy symptoms by about 75%.

And yes I am jaja. But I feel a little better so I continue. It has been a long way finding myself. And Getting to know me. I am so grateful to all my therapists and Mia Pineda told me "bendice la incomodidad que te lleva a tu certeza" So i am just being grateful of allllll the unplesants things that I had lived 

Tomorrow I was asked to some service in chosik. I will put GN pijamas and then mangal artik thae day after Janmastami... So I humbly request your blessings. So that I actually realize all the blessing that I have. And I just want to take the vow that no.matter what happen I will always have the desire to chant Hare Krsna !!!! I want to chant always sometimes I do not have the desire. I am honest. As I always try to be. I have in my heart a GREAT DESIRE FOR ENJOYMENT. I just want that this desire little by little goes away. Anf just focus on what really matters

Thank U GM for always being there. I feel so lonely sometimes. But all your recordingS etc make my feel connected with Krsna and SP

Thank U again and again

Please forgive all my offenses

Happy Janmastami Gurudeva!!!!!

Looking forward to see U again soon
Your useful Daugther

HpS - ASA --- We forget: If I chant 16-nice rounds a day, my life will be fun, exciting, at every moment. Then we do the "terrible" austerity of chanting 16-good rounds (or die) and, "Hey!", we remember, "When I chant my rounds, all my problems and my problematic association goes away, everything in my life becomes harmonius, and now it is opening up to Goloka Vrndavana!".

Remember???

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupad! All glories, all glories to you!

I saw the dates and so you will arrive in Richmond 11/2 and staying until the 16^th, correct?

ASA - Yes...

We can plan for some college classes at local universities. At American University in DC, there is a retired professor who comes to the bhakti club meeting. I’m not sure how resourceful he would be but it could be a starting point? I can look into networking with more educators.

ASA - Yes, you can find the link for the Peru symposium by searching YouTube for "psychology and the sacred 2016". That is super-fine intro to the kind of stuff we are doing:
1. Science, Psyche and Spirituality - The Ecounter of Carl Jung with the Classical Mysticism (Bhagavata purana) of Ancient India

2. ISKCON - Ministry of Education - Join Nimai, Pariksit, Arjuna and the Goswami Academy in the new wave of Education with ISKCON.

I was hoping initiation would be during Kartik (last day is Nov 14^th?) so maybe Nov 6^th? Like you said earlier, “HpS - O.K!   Got the letter. Where can you find a priest and a fire and as many devotees as possible? Sunday Feast!!!” 

ASA - Slam, bang, dunk!  It's on the Calendar.  Look for a priest, some, wood and some ghee. We can actually be the priest if no one else turns up.  Here we go. The Golden Cadillac to Goloka!

Please let me know as you see fit. I will try my best to coordinate in a timely manner.

your aspiring servant, 

Sarita

ASA - May all your law suits be profitable ones.

hare krishna gurumaharaja! por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada! todas las glorias a usted!

Espero se encuentre muy bien de salud. 

yo continuo con mi servicio en el templo de barcelona los dias sabados. cantando las 16 rondas cada dia, 4 principios, leyendo libros de srila prabhupada casi a diario y adoracion a las deidades en casa.

La familia se encuentra muy bien, vaisnavi ya tiene 2 años, a principios de septiembre  nacera nuestra segunda  hija, seria una gran bendicion para nosotros si usted nos daria el nombre para ella.

HpS - Va ser un gran benedicion para Vaisnavi tener una hermana.   Su sadhan es super. El resultando, volver a Krsna es guarantizado!!   Pronto!          Un nombre!??  No se???    Que piensa Vd.??

aqui en el templo de barcelona  hay muchos devotos vivendo en estos momentos. El ratha yatra fue muy bonito y concurrido, ahora se  esta organizando el evento para sri krishna janmastami en el museo maritimo de barcelona.

HpS - Es en el fin de Ramblaz?   Puede ser muy bueno. Nos envia resultados.

su sirviente gadadhara gosai das y familia.

hare krishna!!!

HPS - O.K.  Sus sugerencias del nombre y reportaje de Janmastami.

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabupad!

His Sweetness, Krishna has been teaching me some lessons which I fail to see again and again. I already told you about the GRE. And then I mentioned the house to buy for my parents. We were 3 days from settling and during the final walk through noticed a 2x2 foot hole punched in the wall that was gateway to some bigger, water-related issues. Considering that a dodged bullet, I decided to void the contract but legally, I’m tied to it unless I give up my $4000 deposit. I know money isn’t everything but this feels like a gut punch. What lesson can I see this? I’m thinking its sastric dharma about girls buying property for their parents … my father was against this from the beginning and doesn’t find it acceptable to take anything from daughters. I don’t know – I wanted to help but this has been spiraling into a massive mess. Praying to Krishna it doesn’t go to court.

I hope you are resting and recuperating but still energized. I read you had the association of  HG KalaKantha Prabhu. He was the speaker at the TSI event in Chicago. Very inspiring for much of the youth. Amazing devotee. I took a pic of him there and Kishore Kishori. So much lovability. Also, wondering if you had a chance to speak with Vraja Bihari Prabhu? (Krishna arranged for him to be literally walking outside my office in DC the day you mentioned his name).

 I look forward to serving you Maharaj and pray that time come soon.

balam balavatam caham

Your aspiring servant,

Sarita

HpS - ASA --- Maybe Krsna is preparing you to be Draupadi in your next life. You can see that we have the tickets for D.C. Those dates are O.K?      What can we do while we are there?    We will see if there are any professors to meet.   When shall we have initiations???

Very nice photos.  Right afte Kala-kanta was here, a neighbor came by with his real estate lady and were talking about buying our mobile home property. We asked her to look for a place near the campus!

Hare
Krsna!

paoho...  5.51PM here.  Our pre-mangala arati, CC reading took us to Antya 17.54, and that took us to Krsna, Dharma's Mahabharata at Vedabase.com where we are looking for the story of Pingala the prostitute, or cortesan, as some might say.

Then we got a call from Rama-giridhari Das right after FMP, 5.45AM, so we talked for about 1/2-hour, but we are all so busy with Janmastami celebration that we couldn't deal with all the details. Monday we will talk again. Was there a Latin American Educator's meeting last Friday? Did we miss it?  When is the next one?

Then we got sucked into gardening and trimmed two hedges. One is where the poison ivy is. It looks like 91% of it has gone to Goloka from the Poison we used, but it is still dangerous. We thinki we will buy two fruit trees on Janmastami. They are only $25 now.

Visala Das called six times and we called back. He wants to join the Start Meeting class tommorrow. We worked on the Powerpoint Show for that and the same one for tommorrow night.

Then we got final word from Subal Sakha in Richmond so we worked out the calendar and bought the tickets and posted the accounts!  That takes time.

Then we are here. Ready to go to NGD's home for BG class. It is hot, like 35*.

Tom Daigle called and we discussed changes in Prabhupada's books.

O.K. Let's look at the mail!
(Oh, one girl came selling ATT cable service and we told her we didn't use it but gave her a "book from  India".)
