Letters to the editor

AGTSP..  We received an nice Annual Report for Madhumanjari Devi Dasi, Gopinatha Pujari, and we answered: Hare Krsna,
AgtSP!!   Paoho. Thank you for your austerity. Report. We don't hear too much from you, so we feel that you must be doing well. Again, even with another name, the Blog is a place where we can communicate effectively. Private letters we can handle a few a month. Our eyes are getting old and we can communicate less and less this by computer. I think we will go to India next time through Australia, Hawaii etc?

Hare Krsna!   We just arrived in Mexico. Packing and adjusting all the business in Murfreesboro, flying to Houston and 10-hours of intense programs in transit, then stress of travel, arrived here. Staying is Vidagdha Das apartment. He, Mataji and the two boys move out for us!!

Can walk to the Temple in 13-minutes. 108-devotees out on Sankirtan. A little rest then at 6PM we go for Arati and Class and Christmas Festival.

¡HARE KRISNA!

Por favor acepte mis mas humildes reverencias. TLGSP

     Tal como hablamos, le envío una foto de mis Deidades y otra de las Deidades de mi hija. Ahora en invierno les ponemos un abrigo; aquí en la sierra de Madrid hace frío. 

     Me gustaría que me explicara lo que me dijo en su última carta acerca de Jaghanatta [Jagannatha]. Yo pensaba que tenía esa forma porque cuando volvió a Vrindavan y vió a Radharani entró en éxtasis y Balaram y Subadra después de verlo, también entraron en éxtasis.

ASA - No tengo historia directa de Prabhupada, pero Krsna has visto Radharani antes de volver a Vrndavana, en Kuruksetra, no para la batalla, pero despues en otro evento.

Jayananda dijo que Prabhupada dijo es Krsna con la opulencia de Kurukstra, Dvaraka. No se mas ahoradecir mas.

     Ayer en Madrid, estuvimos haciendo  Sankirtan con los niños Gurukula. Fué una idea de Purnamasi y salió fenomenal. En una hora pudimos distribuir alrededor de 50 libros por misericordia de S. Caitanya Mahaprabhú. También distribuímos galletas de mantequilla y bolitas de coco. Los niños estaban muy contentos y nosotros también. 

ASA - Jaya! Sankirtaneritos!   Va a ser seres humanos increibles, no?

Hablé con Janardan y me dijo que ya le envió la carta. ¿La ha recibido?

ASA - Nada recien y no 'record' de algo bien pasado!? Esperamos.

     Le envío un afectuoso saludo quedando siempre a su servicio.

HpS - We just arrived in Mexico after just a few hours here in June. Very nice.

All Glories be to your lordships Sri Sri Goura Nitay
All glories be to Srila Prabhupada
Please Maharaj, accept my most respectful obeisances

My name is María de los Ángeles, I am 27 years old, I am from Santiago de Chile and I am a cook.
I met the devotees on the Harinama sankirtan program on Saturday in April of last year, the devotees distributed me some books, and very lovingly invited me to attend the temple. Immediately the next day I went to the Sunday party and I liked it a lot; The truth I felt at home since long ago I had the feeling of searching for the spiritual and from there I did not let go, I began to sing rounds a little and to follow the regulative principles, I was participating in the programs and in May of this year the Very loving devotees integrated me to the service of garlands for your Lordships and since that time is my fixed service. I tell her I'm happy, I feel very blessed.
I must also add that I am working in the restorant of the temple from Monday to Friday and every day I can practice what I like to cook for the Lord, serve the devotees and of course distribute prasadam.

Maharaja, for you I feel great inspiration: for your preaching, your humility, and your various qualities.

When you came to Santiago de Chile in January of this year I fell down at your feet, I managed to see Prabhupada through you and I felt a lot of emotion.

I just wish I could have your blessings to get more dedication and attachment to the chanting of the holy name, to continue serving the devotees and to be a contribution to the Hare Krishna movement.

My most humble obeisances.

Bhaktina Maria de los Ángeles

HpS - Hare Krsna. It is very nice to meet you! Try reading the Teachings of Lord Caitanya.   We will be in Santiago en June-July.

Hare Krsna,

We are leaving for Houston, Mexico, India within 45-minutes. Writing last minute urgent letters, packing, dangerous headache, but the Sankirtan is going ahead.

Yesterday we tried to finalize these tickets for South America. Lima was pretty easy. Not really easy, but we did it. We have a ticket to and from Lima: 21 June - 26 July. We were thinking some time in Peru and Bolivia and some time in Santiago.

Then we tried for TWO HARD hours to work out the Brazil ticket and nothing works. A direct flight is $1,500. There is one cheap ticket on Jet Blue - Azul through Florida, but that takes 24-hours and will go through four airports each direction. Then... the Visa is a lot of work and costs $160 for each entry. If we go on to Argentina and come back for our flight through Rio then that will be $320 for the Visa ...   so... at this point it seems like this Brazil, Argentina trip is not happening! .... .

We are trying our best but is lot of work to get reasonable tickets, and then the travel is very hard.

We are open to professional suggestions!
