Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, PAMHO


I hope this meets you happy and in good health and enery.


I know that all of us are getting old, and diseases may come. Still my desire is that you always feel good and with strength.


I am working right now, as always haha. While I am uploading material for my classes I am listening to this exceptional class of yours :

H.H. Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaja_Srila Prabhupada Katha_27.10.2022

I am delighted to hear the way in which you glorify Srila Prabhupada.

I am on cloud nine. Thanks for all your legacy

I just wanted to say thank you


"The spiritual master is present wherever his sincere disciple is trying to serve him in his instructions. This is possible by the mercy of Krsna. In your attempts to serve Me and in all your feelings of sincere devotion, I am with you as my Guru Maharaja is with me. Always remember this." Letter from Prabhupada - Dec 1973


I hope that Srimati Radharani fulfill all your desires. I am attaching a picture of my deity

But also I hope to see you in person again




Your eternal servant

CMDD


HpS//ASA - AgtSP and Sri Sri Radha-Krsna.

Have you ever seen me in person??

Feeling materially well is the same as feeling materially bad!

Best to have no material feelings.

😃

Thank you for your letter and work.

Fight for perfect Japa.

Pamho."


How is you dham visit going on ?


How is your health?"


HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, have been trying to do Twitter posts ever since we left Nashville.

Haven't been able to Follow us on Twitter?

Richmond.

Madrid.

Then 25-hours with Yadu Swami many other devotees to reach Braja and Radha-kunda!


So many visitors from Manipur, Argentina, Australia et al.

Very intense schedule for two days, then 3rd day virus, no water, two more days water but no food.

Body is no fever now but digestion is very weak, so only take little Prasadam.

Radha-kunda is very merciful.

Still proceeding to go blind, deaf, dumb, senile externally,

but learning to increase life internally.

Hare Krsna

Hare Rama.

Hare Krishna GuruMaharaja!

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!


Thank you so much for writing me!

Yesterday I was trying to recuperate from Radhastami...I drank too much of the Carinamrta. I thought it was natural fruit so it would be okay but I think the honey content was too strong. 


I was able to go on the altar and bathe Sri Sri Radha Giridhari with fruit juices on Radhastami!


And earlier on Radhastami me and Patita Pavana Prabhu went to the University of Houston downtown and distributed books. 

I distributed 30 books and he distributed I think close to 40 or 50. We are following the example of the Atlanta brahmacaris and so now we are selling the books as stacks. I distributed 6 stacks that day. 


I'm trying to add up all the books since January but it's taking longer than expected. I have done the math for about 4 months so far.


Also! I am missing the Japa call ever since you arrived in Spain... I need to look up the time difference. I miss being on the call. 


I'm going out on books maybe two days a week, Harinama one day a week, preaching programs two days a week, and whatever other time there is, it's filled with Bhogha runs and cleaning!


Thank you for everything, GuruMaharaja! 


Oh also, I am still chanting 16 rounds before mangal. Out of a year, it's about 300 days of rounds before mangal and 65 days almost before mangal.

Everything is possible by Krishna's mercy that flows through Srila Prabhupada and through you!! Thank you!


I pray every day that you can serve Srila Prabhupada! And that I can somehow get the sincerity to serve you!


Your aspiring servant,

Jaya Hari das

Hare Krishna Beloved Gurudeva,

Please accept our humble obeisances,

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada,

Dear Gurudeva,


We are still living in the Sri Govardhan eco-village, along with our dear wife and our little daughter Margarita.


Some days, Benjamin comes to stay with us, although most of the time he lives with his mother.


HpS/ASA - AgtSP, your 'first wife'. 🤔


Our eldest son is in Europe, traveling and taking his first steps into adult life.


We remain enthusiastic, trying to fulfill our initiation vows: 16 rounds and the four principles.


However, some days, due to our lack of sincerity and material desires, we behave more like Bhakta Nicasio than Nikunja Bihari Das.


We feel very bad when that happens, but very good when we manage to fulfill our initiation vows.


Recently, at a birthday celebration with the devotees, we were chanting the mahamantra in a kirtan, and suddenly the leader of the bhajan began to sing "Govinda Jaya Jaya...". The vibration changed automatically, and I was able to experience for a second the potency of the holy name and the importance of chanting only the mantras established by our Founder Acharya.


Thank you, Gurudeva, for always reminding us of the importance of being connected with the holy name, as the most crucial point in our spiritual practice, especially when doing it early in the morning, after our morning program during the brahma muhurta. Thank you for being a living example of Srila Prabhupada's teachings and for always being so accessible to us, your fallen followers, who undertake the difficult task of developing Krishna consciousness in family life during Kali Yuga.


We will try to send you a small report every Ekadasi to stimulate our refuge at your divine lotus feet.

Attempting to serve you with many shortcomings but with tenacity.


Your stubborn servant,

Nikunja Bihari Das.


HpS - Obeisances to you all. hope the other letters today are also useful to you.

KK HH!


Life pushes us to look for the eternal.

so many relative truths and relations fall away.

Prabhupada chants HK HR with such simplicity.

He is satisfied.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rvXbRgygqic&pp=ygUcUHJhYmh1cGFkYSBnb3ZpbmRhIGpheWEgamF5YQ%3D%3D


Is Mantra you heard?


Prabhupada chanted and glorified and the beginning of ISKCON later did not.

Hmmm?

Maybe devotee chanting had a different understanding of this Mantra than his understanding of HK mantra even if it was superficially heard from Srila Prabhupada.


O.K. Now tilak and Podcast.

Thank you.

You feed us with your life.

Think your first wife, kids, community get life from your sincerity, and you from them?
