Letters to the editor

HpS - ASA -   AGTSP.  paoho.   We are sorry that we were not able to answer this letter earlier. It came just as we were leaving on this intense India, Europe tour.

Dear Gurudeva.

Accept my humble obeisances, All the glories to Srila Prabhupada.

We moved from Chosica, now we are living in Chaclacayo in a house that bought the parents in-law, last year. There they have offered us the airs (???) in the second floor, but they have to build… Karuna mayi has always desired to have something own, and Krsna Balaram have blessed her… I don’t know if we are going to stay there in the future, because Sita and Arjuna will study in Lima. So, at least, we will stay here all 2015…

HpS - Sounds very nice. Seems like it is a place with more trees and gardens. You can meet some neighbors and share your knowledge with them, no?

We are fine, getting used, we get up at 3 am, and we are doing mangal aratik with you in japa Joe and Mayapur Tv, Houston class, from 4:30 am, …

I have to keep traveling to Lima for work, everyday like 5:15 am, and I return between 5:30 and 7 pm…

Karuna and the guys, go to the temple because of their BS classes on Tuesday, with Lakshman Prabhu. And the same day Sita and Karuna do wreaths [garlands]… Sita is still in English, and with Arjuna have retaken to their classes of Violin (Sita) and Guitar (Arjuna). Also we go to the temple on Sundays, since Govinda and then we stay to help in what we can, especially in the kirtans, Bhajans, preaching and sometimes with Srimad Bhagavatam class.

Here we have internet (at home), so we will communicate with you more often.

Thank you so much for your association, we love you so much Gurudeva…

Your foolish disciple Anandamaya das

HpS - ASA ----  Such nice news. We hope that you can find a way to form a Hare Krsna co-operative for transportation to Lima, riding with other devotees, civilized people.   How is Krsna Consciousness changing the heart. That is the real thing. Revolution in our heart means revolution in the world.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

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

I hope you are well after your extensive traveling.

HpS - ASA --- We seem to be getting our energy and intelligence back.

I want to take the opportunity now to let you know that our baby boy has arrived :) He was born May 8th on the disappearance day of Ramananda Raya. We have named him Arindama, the subduer of the enemy. He has a very calm mood which is the total opposite of our daughter Audharya. But she likes him and is very helpful with his care. She will get along with him when they are both older. And Yogendra is busy taking care of all of us as we recuperate. Very big job he has. That is all I have time to write for now.

Your aspiring servant, 

Rasa-mandali dasi

HpS - ASA   ---- Thank you for the super, super, super news. Yes, these children are not ordinary people. Krsna does not send ordinary people to be children of devotees. We hope that you and Yogendra Das can offer super education to the Kids also.

Querido Gurudeva

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias

Hare Krishna Gurudeva. Aquí Rodrigo Hernández Piceros de Santiago, Chile.

Gracias por su respuesta a mi última carta y su nueva instrucción: “HpS - ASA -- Practica (possible en la confidentiality de sus propios cuartos (((('0')))) Bailando y cantando para krsna”.

¡Así lo haré Gurudeva!

Esta vez esta carta es por una pregunta importante:

HpS - ASA - Desculpa la demurra. Casi sin comunicacion para un mes mientras nuestra viaje a India y Europa.

Entiendo que Krishna es la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, también entiendo que los semidioses son sirvientes de Krishna, y entiendo que los semidioses también están para ayudar a las personas.

A mí me gusta mucho adorar a las Deidades en mi altar que está en mi casa:

En mi altar está Radha Krishna, Jaganath, Baladeva y Subhadra, Nrisimha deva, Goura Nitai y el Hanuman de madera que Usted me regaló, pero también está Ganesh, Laksmi y Shiva.

Ganesh, Laksmi y Shiva son semidioses, pero también son devotos de Krishna y ellos hacen servicio para Krishna.

HpS - ASA - Laksmi Devi no es Semi-diosa. Es como Radha. http://www.vedabase.com/es/sb/6/19/13

Y Senor Shiva es tambien no Jiva-atma. Es entre Jiva-atma y Visnu-tattva.

Por ejemplo, el Señor Shiva en el Srimad Bhagavatam canto 2, capítulo 4 es nombrado como “el maestro espiritual de todos los objetos animados e inanimados” y se dice que “Él es el mejor de los Vaisnavas”.

En cuanto a Ganesh, él ayuda a las personas a superar los obstáculos en la vida material y espiritual. Además Ganesh fue quien escribió el Mahabharata según le dictaba el sabio Vyasadeva (Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 1, capítulo 3 significado versos 6 y 7)   

Y Laksmi hace masajes (reflexología) a los pies de loto de Krishna y ella otorga bendiciones materiales. En mi caso me cuesta mucho ganar dinero, porque casi el 80% de mis actividades y trabajos son por amor al arte, no hay dinero para cultura.

Por otro lado, entiendo que Krishna quiere nuestro amor y devoción y servicio devocional. Y que Krishna no quiere que pidamos a él bendiciones materiales.

Entonces la pregunta es: ¿Está bien o mal adorar a Semidioses en nuestro altar si ellos son devotos de Krishna?

¿Shiva, Ganesh y Laksmi pueden seguir en mi altar o yo debo sacarlos del altar?

De verdad yo estoy confundido con todo esto. Por eso escribo a usted. Yo haré lo que usted me diga en su instrucción.

HpS - ASA --- http://www.vedabase.com/es/cc/adi/7/157  Eso es bien???? Mucha instruccion por Srila Prabhupada aqui. Siempre Laksmi con Narayana. Puede cantar el Sad goswami astaka cada dia y ellos va a removar todos los obstaculos en servicio devocional. Krsna es buen Padre. El conoce cuanto dinero enviar para nuestra servicio, pero, la cosa es entender cual es nuestra servicio. Vendiendo arte, platanos, sonrisas.. ?

Con mis reverencias,

Ss Bhakta Rodrigo Hernández de Santiago de Chile
