Namah Om Vishnu Padaya Krishna Preshthaya Bhutale

Srimate Hanumat Preshak Swamin iti Namine

I pay my respectful obeisances to His Divine Grace Srila Hanumat Preshak Swami Maharaj-who is very dear to Lord Shri Krishna, having taken shelter at His feet.

Please accept my best wishes on the occasion of your 68th Divine Appearance Day.

When Karmi people celebrate their birth-days, it does not make any sense, since they have no spiritual inclination and thus they implicate their existense more and more in material complexities, but in your case, please believe me that you should be proud of your devotional attainments, so celebrating your birth-day is a must thing, it gives to us, to the disciples, an opportunity to glorify the whole parampara through your transparent via medium, All Glories to your pure service to your guru Srila Prabhupad, kindly bless us that we may serve you with the same spirit.

When we say that you are our savior, it is not out of sentiments, it is real. Here is the reason:-We have the tendency to commit sinful activities because of our past conditioning, but always, either out of fear of chastisement from your side, or out of respect for you or for the fear of public blasphemy-they would say shame on you, what are you doing? disciple of such a nice Sadhu and look at your degraded actions, so you are always saving us, directly or indirectly.  A disciple can never pay to his guru for the gifts he receives from him, if he thinks so he is fool number one.

You are a very genuine Vaishnav and you are situated in your own glories, may the light of your pure character always be upon us, and thus we may aspire to follow you properly.

yours servant,

Raktak Das

HPS - AGTSP. paoho. we have very little  ability. we are in argentina with a machine that is 90% inefficient. thank you for your thoughts. we follow the four principles, chant our rounds and try to minimize our acts of stupidity. we have more purification before we can really be bhava bhaktas. the more we purify ourselves, the more others have the opportunity of pure association.

Hare Krsna reverencias maharaja En realidad NO , sus curriculums son buenos pero no los conosco a todos. Me gustaria cambiar la Filosofía por el Derecho, es fácil el cambio. Me siento inquieta ya que no sé si sea momento para pasar un tiempo en el templo quizá seis meses o un año. 

Respected GuruMaharaja Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. I am sorry, my annual report got delayed. I posted it in the 'Annual Disciple Report' section. My trip to India was good though it was very tiring. I came back sick two days ago and didn't go to work yet. It was probably Krishna's arrangement that we missed our connecting flight in Dubai. Sugopi and I were feeling bad that we will be in transit for your Vyasapuja tithi. However, due to missing the connection we got a hotel in Dubai. We were carrying a mridanga to US which we were suggested by airline staff to take as carry on. In the hotel we took a shower, put on tilak, clothes (dhoti, sarees), unpacked our Gaura Nitai and used a good table as altar. Found some flowers, fruits, nuts and bottled water for offering. In the middle of the airport, inside the hotel, we sang bhajans with mridanga, did pushpanjai and celebrated nice vyasapuja! I met Prahlad Narsimha prabhu and Sudhama Sakha prabhu in Mayapur. Prahlad Narsimha prabhu is doing great work on the next version of vedabase.com and he showed high level design to me. I think there will be tools that will be very useful for general users as well as serious students of Srila Prabhupada's books. Looking at how travel makes me fall behind on certain things and makes me sick I look with amazement how you accomplish what you do at your advanced age. Thank you for taking on such austerities for the benefit of conditioned souls like me. I very much miss our Srimad Bhagavatam meetings and looking forward for your association again. Your insignificant servant Srinivasacarya dasa
