Hare Krishna Gurudev!!

Please accept my humble obeisances!!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!

I humbly request to please visit Mar del Plata two days between january 14 and 20 while you are in Buenos Aires. If you give me the dates i can book you in a flight (is 45 min flight from Bs As )

We can organize an interfaith dialog and. Jung conference.

Thank you Gurudev,

At your lotus feet,

Nikunja Bihari das.

ps: when i hit the intro key the cursor goes to the upper left portion of the screen. i'm using an ipad to write. Haribol!!!

HpS - Robots are weird.   It seems like it would be too much travel to go there this time. What does the Rati-manjari DD and others say?

Hare Krishna Gurudev!!,

Please accept my humble obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

Here we are from our cave in mar del plata! We have been with His Holiness Bhakti Gauravani Goswami the whole weekend, he stayed here. Sadhu sanga Ki jay!!!

HpS - ASA -- Maharaja is from Spain, no? Germany??

Next month we move to Sama our workplace, this is to keep our structure simple in order to focus on sadhana. One house to live and work, not one for working another for living, oooff!!

Psychoteraphy is helping me a lot to follow the process in a more deeper way.

My therapist follow the school of Hector Fernandez Alvarez (www.aigle.org.ar) they integrate different psychology techniques according to the needs of the patient.

For me is working!!! Now i realized that I'm not my emotions, so however i feel i keep chanting!!!

Manu and Benji are three days a week with me, then the rest with their mother. Austerity is to notice how different both of us raise them, so when i meet them after two days with mom is intense. But as you said me once, they will choose which kind of life they want to live. But they know very clear, daddy is a Krishna Bhakta!!

ASA - On every single bill from the USA, $1, $10, $20, $50, $100... it says, "In God W Trust".   Hmmm.  In what does their Mother trust??

16 R 4 P ok. Now we are determined not to change asram until fixed in sattva guna. So now we are UPAKURVANA BRAMACHARI ( TEMPORARY BACHELOR ) Any advice?

ASA - Give your therapist samosas if you can!

December marathon is here, so many books are going away!, we prepared a nice strategy!! We made a program kind of weekends warriors, we go out on harinam every sunday after the feast and many join to go out and distribute books.

Then we made 4 books set, wraped as christmas gift so devotees can make a trascendental christmas gift!!

Little by little we are feeling much better, inner peace!!!

We feel happy of being part of ISKCON family, devotees are great in all respect! They are my core family!!

Thank you Gurudeva For being a loving and living example for us!!

We struggle to become a better tool for you!!

At your divine, beautiful and soft lotus feet!!!

HpS - Skins a little wrinkled and dry, toe-nails need clipping. More soft-headed. Don't look, like lotuses.

Your stupid fallen servant!!,

Nikunja Bihari das.

HpS - I think we have stomach cancer. Pretty chronic pain now. Maybe and ulcer, but not very intense. We keep an eye on it, but our real business is in our heart. It the belly and genitals die, but the heart is fine, that's O.K.
See you soon!!!
It must be interesting seeing the boys grow up. They are individual people with a whole lot of history that is beginning to manifest as it has the chance.

Hare Krishna,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Steady improvements moving forward here in Denver. I just moved into the temple. MUCH easier to go to morning programs/do service/get association etc. Tushta Krishna is a very intelligent warm devotee. We are discussing the possibility of hosting you here at Denver at some point. Is there a phone number or some other contact I can forward to Tushta Prabhu so that He can reach out to you?

Brahmacaris are fantastic association. I happy to be more and more engaged and apart of the community as each month goes by (completed 2 of 6 to get 'formal refugee' recomendation). 

So morning programs/seva are more frequent. The hardest thing right now is my reading. I need to get more disciplined with it and read more consistently. I'll go three days reading a lot, four days no reading, two days reading, one day not reading, etc. Also having a hard time sticking with (two) books. It's entertaining but is certainly dividing my attention. 

Reb is continuing to be stubborn and refuses to be respectful or mature with our dealings. Fortunately my family is willing to give me money to give her so she doesn't take me to court again. Divorce is almost finalized. Not sure if I want to be a brahmacari, but I'm certainly feeling burned by this situation. Just focusing on sadhana is good enough for now! Visited Utah temple for a few hours on a day trip back home for my dad's birthday. It was nice. Still lots of focus on Holi. Could be more focus on cultivating new devotees. 

Please leave me with instruction. 

Your aspiring servant,

Bhakta Adrian

ASA - Just answered the whole letter and the robot lost it all.  Haw!  Haw!  Hare!   Again.

1. What about getting a Study Partner or two. Sangat sanjayate kamah - NOI.

2. Very, very, sorry that Rebecca could not stay on board, but there is no loss. You gave her wonderful gift. It will just go on maturing from different experiences she has.

25. Ou number is 209 505-3219 for calls and texts, but 90% of our work for calendar, sankirtan development, goes on here in the ** BLOG** !

26. You seem to be benefitting from years of effort, baby learning to walk.  Whose running the restaurant?

Todas las Glorias a Sri Sri GouraNitay!!!!

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!!

Todas las Glorias y mis más respetuosas reverencias a ud Gurudeva!!!!

Hare Krishna Gurudeva espero se encuentre bien en todo aspecto y que el mes de Damodara haya sido muy auspicioso para Ud.

Como siempre le pido disculpas por mi ingratitud, este último tiempo no ha sido fácil muchas pruebas internas y externas, de altos y bajos ufffff!!!! Todos estos desajustes y stress hicieron que me enfermara, es primera vez que me sucede algo asi,  todo lo que comia me hacia mal, y ademas me dio una alergia terrible en la cara que poco a poco esta sanando, me tome examenes para saber si algo estaba mal, para mi sorpresa (aunque me lo esperaba un poco) todos salieron bien... la mente es tan poderosa que puede hacernos enfermar sin realmente estarlo, y tan débil que ante cualquier cosa puede hacernos tan vulnerables, viendo lo positivo en todo esto creo que fue una bendición para hacer una pausa y replantearme las cosas,  el saber hacia donde estoy dirigiendo mi vida y acciones, mis prioridades, y que cosas debo mejorar... y claro que llegue a la conclusión de que he retrasado tanto mi vida espiritual, por mi torpeza, por mis apegos egoístas, por mi falta de constancia y disciplina, he estado todo este tiempo sin levantar el ancla... y siento que no he avanzado nada...

ASA - Eso es imposible si canta HK...  Pero esperamos mas velocidad!

 . . . asi que me plantee hacer un cambio real y profundo ya no puedo retrasar lo más importante que tengo en la vida y lo que más plenitud y realización me da, gracias a Krishna he estado rodeada de personas que me han ayudado a darme cuenta de esto, sobre todo mis amigas devotas con las que nos hemos apoyado en momentos díficiles,... Y el canto de los Santos Nombres ha sido el mejor refugio y medicina, disculpeme Gurudev parece que siempre ando tropezando, espero en algún momento ser una buena y sincera discípula...

16/4 ok  estamos integrando mangalarati a nuestro sadhana, y el tratar de cantar las rondas lo más temprano posible, antes de que caiga el sol ya que después el sueño me gana, sigo realizando servicio todos los martes en el templo haciendo las guirnaldas de GouraNitay. Estamos empezando a hacer pequeñas reuniones con algunas devotas para compartir y desarrollar la amistad, eso ha sido muy bueno para todas. Mis hijos están bien tienen mucha paciencia conmigo ya que no soy la mejor de las madres, debo mejorar para ser un buen ejemplo para ellos...aveces puedo ser tan egoísta e impersonal...

Como hacer Gurudev cuando parece que las circunstancias no son las mejores para servir a Krishna, cuando tenemos que lidiar constantemente con la mente de uno mismo y de otros... como hacer para no sentirse sobrepasado por esto y obtener entusiasmo y determinación???

ASA - Escribir regularmente a esta Blog! Tiene padre, hermanos that are concerned about you.

El otro día tuve un sueño tan bello... me encontraba buscando un bus que me llevara a casa pero no podia encontrarlo, preguntaba y nadie sabia donde pasaba ese bus, entraba a lugares donde la gente estaba peleando, y me pegaban, salia a la calle y habian 4 demonios pequeños que no me dejaban pasar con una espada los cortaba en dos y al pasar por todo eso pense este mundo es un caos... al seguir caminando veo a unos devotos entrando en una casa y corro hacia ellos, estaban preparando la llegada de ud Gurudev,  haciendo un gran pastel  y decorando el lugar, queria hacerle unas samosas pero no encontraba los ingredientes, me subía en una silla para alcanzar un estante y habían unas samosas escondidas las guardaba para cuando ud llegara, y en ese momento escuche su voz, ud había llegado... baje da la silla rápidamente y al verlo le di mis reverencias y ud dijo Alankrti!!! y con la mano hizo como si tomara un lápiz mientras me decía escribeme... y yo daba mil excusas tontas y ud volvia a decir escribeme... y me miraba como diciendo no importa lo que pase tienes que seguir, este mundo pondrá una prueba tras otra, pero hay que seguir...ese sueño fue un llamado de ud para que esta torpe despierte de una vez...

Le agradezco por todo Gurudeva, por estar siempre presente en la vida de cada uno de sus discípulos como el capitán que nos guía en el camino hacia Krishna Mis reverencias una y otra vez!!!!

Se despide su torpe sirvienta Alankrti Devi Dasi  

HpS - ASA --- Nuestra Burro es muy viejo y estupido pero espamos tomar apoyo de su asociacion pronto. Ya un mes a salir para SA>

Adelante.   No posible rondas entusiastas sin Mangala arati, SB...
