HpS - ASA -- Seven times we offer our obeisance to you. You are giving the association of Srila Prabhupada to people with profound love and intelligence. I think Krsna will give you more and more profund service. We arrive in Mexico 6.30AM, 13 Julio and leave 1.30PM, 13 Julio. I think we will be camping near the airport. We hope to see you then.

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

HpS - ASA -  That's 7AM here in La Paz and SB starts at 6.45AM, so we could not join it, but we could give someone else the Access Code to be the Host. Then they could control the meeting. We would be available Friday and Saturday after 7.45AM La Paz time.
Thank you so much for your participation in the Psych/Sacred event. Was Lalita-gopi DD satisfied with all the arrangments?

Dead done dog tired.

Hare!  Hare!  Krsna...   Chosica to Lima.     Lima, Cusco. Cusco, La Paz.       Yet, the results are worth the inversion.  Now we prepare for the Evening Program. We are camped with Dharmaraja Das in the flat of Very venerable Devota on the 19th story of these residential towers.  Her father was a General in the Bolivian Corp of Engineers.

   There is very little air here. Like 8,000 feet high.    Head-ache and brain strokes can be easy. It is cold. Down to freezing at night.

The trip from the airport [13,333 feet] was delayed by a General Strike by the indigeneous people for three days.

We need your advice on Strategy. We get it from our Japa best but it also needs the eyes of all the rest.

"Solaris" is a good center as far as we know.

Abhirama Thakura and Laksman Agra Ja appear this moment in the top-ten of our hallucinations of partnership. Sankirtan.

Chant One round [bathe, write Dr. Samaresh].

Hare Krsna Gurudeva, 

Please accept my  humbles obeisances

All glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Only to say that I am taking up my spiritual life intensely, first 4 rounds,  two days after 8 rounds, today 12 and tomorrow 16.

Thanks for all your mercy, I regret not being the disciple you expect, but I know only for your mercy all is possible, I am waiting see you soon.

your fallen servant:

Amalakaruna Das

HpSwami - Beat your brains with a stick. You will disappear into the cycle of birth and death again unless you get that rascal to chant. See you today. Thank you so much for your austerity!

Jaya Jagannatha!

HpS - We have seen an exchange of letters from Prabhupada about Chocolate. It seems similar to onions. They bother contain theo-bromides as far as we understand. So, they stimulate lower chakras. This can be source of good energy under certain circumstances, but usually we want mode of goodness. I read that Prabhupada said that Grhasthas could take some, but it could not be offered to the Deity. GBC banned it, then canceled there ban. So seems, that under certain circumstances it maybe O.K.    Urad dahl is more acceptable but also not for regular diet.   Any cocoa product.
O.K?

ND: Guru Maharaja, so it can be taken, but not offered to the Deity. Does it means to:

• consciously take bhoga, or
• offer it to the picture as not to the Deity. It looks there is the acceptence among some devotees that some preparations which can not be offered to the Deity, can be offered to the picture. (Sure, Deity can be made of paint, so this could open new discussion about what is, if any, difference.)

Note: personally, I do not eat cocoa for different reasons, but was intrigued by what you wrote.

ASA -- Hare Hare Krishna! When we saw that citation we also wondered about how it should be taken. I suspect it means that it cannot be offered to installed Radha Krsna deities, but could be presented to Srila Prabhupada for his approval as special rations in this Sankirtan.

Can you get the thoughts to Krsna ksetra Swamis side?

Would take chocolate peanuts while under heavy stress while traveling sometimes, but could definitely feel the negative side effects.

Best to live on milk, fruits and nuts.

All glories to His Divine Grace A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Let me offer my respectful obeisances onto your lotus feet.

HpS- ASA - Just feet.

Hare Krishna!

Excuse me for delaying so much in writing back. The last letter I sent may have lost during your visit to India. I hope you had an excelent trip. How are you now? I heard you had headaches. I sincerily hope you are better by now.

ASA - We still have a little Poison Ivy reaction but body and mind are fit for devotional service to Guru and Gauranga! You?

 I just want to let you know that I am living at Sri Sri Radha Madhan Gopal Mandir since 6 months ago. I feel that living here has helped me a lot to progress in my spiritual understanding. I have to honestly admit that it has not been easy for me. My mind always tricks me to run away, specially because I was the only Mataji in the ashrama for some time. Previously I taught that I had am lot of problems. But thanks to Prabhupada's mercy, I could understand that those problems were only related to this bodily conception of life. Now I am happier focusing on how to be Krishna consciouss. I am very motivated due to the love and humbleness that you show at each and every time. It is my desire to take shelter from you because I am sure that your instruction will save me. 

Thank you for always teaching me by your example. Let me offer time and again  my respectful obeisances. I am looking forward to seeing you in Mexico.

Admiringly, Bhaktin Diana Karla

ASA - HpSwami - - Esteemed Mataji,

Please do no think that the austerities that you are doing are small either in terms of your own spiritual life, the life of ISKCON or the happiness of the whole world. From your letter it seems they you are on the right path and still you have to do is to Latin how to travel faster.

Please send us news of how many people in Mangala arati and who lead the Kirtan for the next week!

Hare Krsna.
