We land in Amsterdam airport from Delhi on the 30th. Can anyone help us transit to the Spain flight AND keep two boxes of books until we return from Spain?

Respected Guru Maharaj,

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

HpS - AgtSP. You got the intro info, no? As far as I know Harsh will be with us as driver, and Raktak Das as supreme personality of buffalo-head. So, two people. I don't know what the arrival plan is. Call us this evening! Hare Krsna! Hare Krsna! Thank You.

How do I reply to your comments on my letters on this forum? I only see an option to make a new letter so that is what I am doing as my reply to you here: http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/6362 Your reply to my very serious offering is very confusing! You have replied: "Maybe Krsna will send you a used ice cream trick with super mileage and a loud speaker." I was seriously begging for blessings, making myself vulnerable publicly to the vaishnavas, humbly trying to be responsible and offer our lives to Srila Prabhupada's service, as well as making a HUGE investment in this regard. I am confused by your reply. Are you making fun of me and my fiancee and our offering our lives to Srila Prabhupada? Are you trying to humiliate us, curse us, or put us down?? What is the meaning of your words (quoted above)? Please forgive my confusion. It is a very serious huge financial investment I am legally bound by and I am putting myself at great risk for. Trying to be of some service to Srila Prabhupada's Sankirtana mission. It appears to me that you are cursing me to get an old Ice cream truck with high mileage. I am sorry, but I have 20 solid years of traveling sankirtana experience and breaking down due to having an old vehicle. Then having to pay so much of Krishna's laksmi and time to fix it etc taking away from funds and time that would have other-wise be used for book distribution and preaching is very unfortunate. This takes away fromt the sankirtana yajna. I unfortunately have all too much experience of this. That is why we are buying a new vehicle. I am feeling very fearful of the future (now that you appear to be cursing my offering) and I am hurt by your reply. Please forgive any offences I have made in my trying to be of service and taking care of my fiancee. HpS - Hare Krsna. Tried to reply immediately, but we are in Kolkata and could not connect. We were not cursing you. This is just our "Hanuman", frivolous nature which has been noted by many ISKCON devotees and even Bharat-bharati Gold Medal winners in India. Tamal Krsna Maharaja told me that we had very different natures but it was very important for his disciples to have my association also and gave me a $50 donation. I hope we can all understand our natural differences and stimulate each other. Basically I think Krsna will send you the vehicle you need!

Before all, I've got to say I don't know how to start a letter to a Spiritual Master, in fact, to the person I desire to be my instructor in Krsna Consciousness; so, I ask you, beforehand, to forgive me for any mistake or offense I could do... I'm just a neophyte.

I salute you with a deep respect, all the glories for you, all my reverences for you, Srila Prabhupada and, also, for all devotees of our Lord, Sri Krsna.

I hope you remember me, this is the first time I write to you, my name is Carlos, I'm from Santiago of Chile.  I'm Visvanath's brother in law. 

We had a first talk in 21st January 2014, an interview for a magazine, in the cultural center of the government palace. This year, the same month, we had others brief conversations into the ISKCON Congress in Chile, also you shared a few words with my daughter, infinite thanks for that, Guru Maharaj. That time, you told me that I can write to you.

I just wanna let you know a very brief summary about my life after the congress. 

7th february, sunday, a devotee girl gave me my Tulsi Kanthi necklace, and the same day, a few hours later, one of your disciples, Garga-Acarya Das, gave me my Japamala. That was a very magical day. 

8th february, monday, early monrning, I started to chant Maha Mantra with my Japamala, just praying a few rounds, chanting everyday, progressively increasing.

February 17, wednesday, I finally got to the 16 rounds. Since then, some days I could chant 18 or over 20 rounds. Now, 16 rounds are so hard to chant, but I can do it anyway, 16 at least, with great effort.

Since a few months ago, everyday I read The Bhagavad Gita and also other books of Srila Prabhupada. Some days I go out into the street to distribute books of Srila Prabhupada.

Since august 2015, I've been involved in a deep problem around my daughter, it affects my whole family, this circumstance continues developing. 

Every week I have been sharing time, many hours talking, with another of your chilean  disciples, Ananda Vardhana Das. And also, I have been talking with Rodrigo, as you told me, about the book I wanna write.

I wanna be your friend.

I would really like to send a personal message to you, how can I do it? I hope this is possible. 

Everyday I think of Krsna and Srila Prabhupada. And everyday I think about your person, Guru Maharaj. I've got an altar in my bedroom, can I put a picture of you, please? 

Hoping to hearing from you soon, I'm deeply grateful for this opportunity that you have given me...

All blessings to you, your disciples and any people around you...

Your aspiring disciple, Carlos Rold.

HpS - Hare Krsna. I didn't know you were Visvanatha's brother in law. I wrote to the address on the magazine card you gave me but never heard from you. Japa is the basis. Get 16-nice round done early and then you can solve family problems etc well. It gets better and better. Write again after a few weeks more of following Srila Prabhupada.
