Jaya Radhe!    Jaya Shyama!
Jaya Sri Vrndavana Dhama!

We got behind on your rounds when we had to rest for the headache in Houston and have not been able to catch up. Now we are 11-rounds behind.   Today we make progress.

Yesterday we met with four professors a MTSU for three hours. Then our battery died on our car in the icey cold rain and we had to negotiate getting it charged, but it was successful. Lots of work before we leave for India.

Our eyes, memory, respiration, brains are all failing. Lots of packing to do before we die. We want to take our service with us!

We will Tweet our Japa progress. The travel time from door to door to India will be about 28-hours!

Soldiers of Gauranga!

Hare Krsna In the Nashville airport. Waiting for Tandavika Ji. Answering mail. We do our little, practical service and Krsna does the magic(does not do it) as He pleases. We are sick, sad, depressed, lonely. Ha, Ha. Could be worse. We bought a bag of potatoes chips to offer to our Lord. Now Gayatri and Tandavika should be here. Don't become depressed by depressed, crazy people. Become determined to make them happy, Hare!

Sunlight and more Sunlight

All glories to Srila Prabhupada,

All glories to your lotus feet

HpS - ASA - Don't be satisfied with small plans for Krsna. Be patient but put enthusiasm first. For example, why don't you become the President of Panama? ??? What would you like to do for Krsna?

All Glories to Sri Sri Gour Nitay!
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
All Glories to ALL devotees!
All Glories to you! 


HARE KRISHNA MAHARAJ! how are you? How is your health? 

I'm Camila R., I haven't written you in a long, long, long...loooooong time... sorry about that. I'm originally from Chile, now living in Buenos Aires Argentina, maybe you don't remember me. 22 years old :) 

I couldn't be able to be in your visit in Chile, and also I couldn't be able to be in your visit in Argentina...but FORTUNATELY by the mercy of Lord Krsna I had the opportunity to see you, one day before the congress of education started. I felt so blessed to have the oportunity to see you, just for a few moment,That was enough to feel immensely happy...

My life, and my spiritual life is ALWAYS going up and down, ALWAYS fighting with my mind, that usually wins <img alt="sad" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/sad_smile.png" title="sad" width="23" />...I've recently had a "down" time ... and I want to apologize, because I feel a very strong compromise with you, even if you don't know that, i guess..
I wanted to tell you, that your visit in Chile, make a GIANT  impression in my heart (again). I thought that I wouldn't see your holiness, and I was thinking like: "ok, maybe next year", so stoic. But then I saw you Maharaj ..and I thanked lord krsna for give me the opportunity to remind me what is important in life, and the compromise that I have in my heart with you Maharaj... I've told once you that I feel strongly that you;HH is my guide in this path to help Srila Prabhupada's mission...and finally return home. 
Please please please help me, and guide me home. Please accept me. 


Now, i'm returning to be more strong and stable in my spiritual life...I ask for your blessing in this time, I ask for your blessing in this fight with my mind... 
With nothing more to say, thank you very much Maharaj...I hope you are fine when reading this letter . :) 

Hare Krishna!
Sincerely, this foolish attempt servant.

RADHE!


 

HpS - satsvarupa swami asked Prabhupada how to chant better rounds and Prabhupada looked at him with very sharp eyes and said, "By chanting better rounds". Blessings, Techniques, They are all based upon person effort, bhakti. So, try your best. Fight with your bad karma, and connect it to Krsna's service. We hope you become a pure devotee very soon.

hare krsna!!!!!!

hare krsna gurudeva

mis mas humildes reverencias a sus pies de loto,todas las glorias a srila prabhupada y a usted.

como esta gurudeva? espero que se encuentre de todo bien,todos los dias le pido a krsna que lo cuide y proteja. el motivo por el que le escribo es respondiendo a el reporte anual referente a la segunda iniciacion. 

si le hablo con el corazon solo con pensar en poder atender a las deidades en algun momento me hace la mujer mas feliz del mundo,esa es mi meta desde que soy pequeña, aunque no hice bhakti sastri,hable con mi querida hermana candra mukhi y ahora empiezo con ella a estudiarlo aunque me dijo que es un proceso largooooo.

si a usted le parece, yo si estoy preparada, si se que debo aprender mucho todavia pero con constancia todo se puede conseguir verdad!!! asi que lo que usted me diga yo le obedezco :-)

un saludo de su burra sirvienta mani-sati sita dd

HpS ASA - AgtSP. Paoho. Bhakti Sastri is very nice. Sastra es modo essential asociar con Krsna. Debemos desarrollar amor por SB. Eso es natural. SB es Krsna, la esencia de todo amorable. Adelanta. Pida a su profedora despierta el Amor por Krsna latente entra Vd.

The sun has set and it is depressing. It is 6.07PM in the Sannyasi ashrama in Houston. Seems this is the first chance we have had to write in a while!

As we said we finished off the Tour with the "Second Education Congress" in the jungles of Chile, and then for the next six nights we woke up in five differenent beds [and one airplane seat].

Here in Houston the pace was just a thick: Goloka Foundation, Goloka Education, Bhakti-vaibhava.

Finally Brother Ass revolted and we had the second worse headache we have had in our entire life. Last time Doctor said we were one inch from a brain stroke, so we rested the brain.

Even now we are beginning to get one again.... Hari lila Das just came in. NGD just called. We are fat!

Jupiter!

A lot of our work at this age is purifiying the tool.

We have about 6-letters. None marked Urgent.

We called about five people today about travel plans. Our rounds are a little behind. We are working on the Peru conference and answered one nice Blog letter and a the Yahoo mail.

O.K. A quick bath.
