HpS - Muy bien, Muy bien!!!  Esperamos visitar a Mexico manana! Es buen pais!       Krsna es el controlador!!!!

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj, por favor reciba mis humildes y respetuosas reverencias.

Nuestro Sadhana está marchando favorablemente bien, estamos con 16 rondas de Japa diarias, Mangal Artik  y cuatro principios regulativos, luchando bastante con nuestra cruel  mente.

HpS - ASA - Ja! Ja! Ja!  Nuestro mas intimo amigo!!

En mi lectura personal, estoy leyendo el Caitanya Caritamrita, Madhya Lila, Cap 6 “La liberación de Sarvabhauma Bhatttacarya” y también estoy  leyendo el  Néctar de Srila Prabhupada “Biografía”.

   HpS - Suuuu per!

Muchos proyectos de Sankirtan por realizar, estoy comprando libros de Srila Prabhupada para distribuirlos.

Este 9 de noviembre se realizo el Ratha Yatra en la ciudad de Lima, en el distrito de San Juan de Lurigancho, el distrito más poblado de Lima, el Ratha Yatra fue todo un éxito, por nuestra parte también participamos distribuyendo los libros de Srila Prabhupada.

       HpS - ASA - - - !! !   !!! !    (!)  {!!}

Conocimos a un joven que se está volviendo devoto, el se llama Cesar, asiste al Centro de predica en Willson, es vegetariano desde hace algunos años, hablamos con él y le pedimos que nos ayude a distribuir los libros de Srila Prabhupada, a lo cual aceptó inmediatamente, de esa manera comenzamos a darle libros a las personas, muchos interesados en el canto del Maha Mantra, les parecía algo muy místico, en lo personal pude apreciar que algunas personas quedaron hipnotizadas por el canto del Maha Mantra “Hare Krsna” y muchos de ellos se iban cantando, eso fue muy impresionante para mí. Entre los tres distribuimos 57 libros pequeños.

HpS - ASA -
Hare
Krsna
Hare Krsna !!!
 

Hubo varios distribuidores de libros, mucha motivación y entusiasmo en la prédica.

Leí  la carta que le respondió a mi esposa y estaba pensando mucho en la importancia de formar personas y que se vuelvan devotos y Sankirtaneros y ayuden en la Misión de Sankirtan de Srila Prabhupada. Claro el snack vegetariano puede ser algo secundario.

Bueno Guru Maharaj me despido, que Krsna y Balaram lo protejan mucho. Hare Krsna!!!!

Gadai Gauranga Das

HpS - La idea de Srila Prabhupada es un movimiento bien integral, no? Cad persona tiene su naturaleza material y espiritual. No esperamos la misma servicio de Vacas y Vaqueros, no? Tiene que integrar su servicio con otros, interminos de su abilidad. Un "Snack" posible es una parte muy importante de su Sankirtan.
Muchas gracias los fotos!  Muchas!  Es Prahladananda Swami, no?

Mas y mas noticias, poco a poco.

Dear guru maharaja, thanks for your reply,

I´m very glad to receive it.  : ) 

Guru maharaja I´m from Argentina , and i am not iniciated yet, i have that name becouse i am son of devotees, my mother is Amrta japa dd ,from Buenos Aires also,

    HpS - Aaaaaaaaaaaa!    AGTSP!  Paoho. I think I remember you very well. We have met so many times, with your esteemed Mother. We had lunch at your residence in Vrndavana one time, no????

i don´t know if you can remember about she.. she'll be at the meeting in Cordoba also.. so , I lived 8 months in the Buenos Aires temple, with reference to his instructions, like a bramacari . after that, I went to brazil to the bhakti sastri course  with Dhanvantari Maharaja, and i´m still here 2 years ago (2013-2014) serving Maharaja Dhanvantari and Bhakti Sastri course like a bramacari also.  Next year we plan to travel with Dhanvantari Maharaja and Bhakti Shastri course for  Europe and India, but not as bramacari,  I would like to talk more about it in Cordoba maybe.

i don´t know if you cant remember about me,i feel that is not for your age , That's why I have to write more often so you do not forget me.

: )

your eternal servant
nara narayana

HpS - So very nice!  If you are chanting and following very nicely for for one year and we have letter of recomendation from Maharaja then it seems certain that you can take initiation now, no? We see you in just like 7-weeks, no?
Very nice to look forward to your association! Thank you!
 

Hare Krishna,

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

I believe we last spoke in Boise when we were both there last. I was having a difficult time with overworking. Fortunately since then I have been able to decrease my work and increase my sadhana.

HpS - ASA - Jaya!!!

It's difficult! I don't find much value in the association here. I am increasing my daily rounds (between 8-16), starting to read Bhagavad Gita daily, and daily offerings to my deities. We don't go to the temple programs here. 

I'm experiencing feelings of frustration. I try to get my wife to chant but she says she no longer has the desire. I am hoping she will start chanting again with me soon! I have been having strong desires to move over the last year or so, to get a new job, new temple community, build a house, etc. I don't feel I am getting what I want/need here. But my wife absolutely does not want to move for social/emotional reasons. So we have had some difficulties. Of course I continue to choose to stay here as that is what she wants. 

I feel all I can do anymore is chant my japa and read. But I feel hungry for association and spontaneity. 

Any words of advise or realizations or inspiration would be greatly valued!!

Your aspiring servant,

Bhakta Adrian-Utah

HpS - Jaya!      Well, you have just increased your association by writing this letter!   Write to us with little extracts of what you are reading. The best way to get more knowledge about how to expand our service is by actually expanding our service a little bit. Then other means of expanding it will become obvious. Not just little steps, but also little steps that we see are part of a very exciting strategy. Write to us more!

Hare krishna Maharaj !!

Please accept my humble obiansces, all the glories to Srila prabhupada!

Maharaj remember  I told you in my first letters that I was taking care and worshipping Tulasi devi ? 

I wanted to ask you, since Iam travellng for one month , is  it posible that a non devotee takes care of tulasi Devi? By taking care i also mean cutting the manjaris .  Can she tell the mantras in spanish when she takes the manjaris? 

HpS - AGTSP paoho. I don't think so!

Ive heard that it is not convenient but this person takes care of our house when we are not here and she comes now three times a week to help me preparing the prasadam i have tought her how to make prasadam , i have told her who is tulasi devi ! She is a devotee of jesus christ, she is a religiuos person. The problem is that she eats meat. 

What would you suggest Maharaj? I would love to take her with me because my sadhana is complete when i chant my sounds with tulasi devi but i cannot take her in the plane sadly. 

My devotees friends will be aways in the summer also , wont be able to take care of her.

thank you Maharaj ! I hope you are very well ! 

My sadhana is going good! Looking forward to see you in peru in the summer! 

Hare krishna!!

HpS - Ask other devotees, but to me it would seem, by the mercy of Guru-Gauranga,  that if there is no one else to take care of Her then, yes, your house-keeper could cut the Manjari's to keep Her healthy.

All glories to sri sri gaura nitai
All glories to Srila Prabhupada

P.A.M.H.O
Dear gurudeva

First of all my letter, I hope you're much better health.

My report is rather short, I'm chant my 16 rounds daily, I am following my 4 regulative principles, attend the temple regularly.
My material and spiritual life are finally balancing. little time finish to read the Bhagavad Gita ago and started reading the nectar of devotion, in which the first chapter of my book, I have a important question I'm thinking and trying to understand.

so, Srila Rupa Goswami explains that took several tests of different scripts 6 characteristics of pure devotional service.

1.pure devotional service immediately produces relief from all kinds of material distress.

2.pure devotional service is the beginning of all auspiciousness.

3.Pure devotional service automatically puts one in a state of transcendental pleasure

4.Pure devotional service is rarely obtained

5.those who practice pure devotional service, even despise the concept of liberation

6.pure devotional service is the only means by which you can attract Krishna.

so my question is
If devotional service is rarely achieved, as we attract Krishna, if pure devotional service is the one who attract to krsna?

as I can understand these two points in this material life? or is totally transcendental?

Gurudeva thank you very much for reading my letter and for your time.
Please accept my humble obeisances again, and please too sorry for my bad english, I'm studying a little every day to improve my English<img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

you have a good and beautiful week.

HpS - AGTSP!  <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" /> Paoho.    I can't understand your question. Partly it is because the questions seems to be a little fine, so fine language is required.  Can you please ask again in Spanish with an English translation. Please, it seems like a question I also have!
