Hare Krsna GM.

All Glories to HDG AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to You
All Glories to devotees.

Please accept my humble obeisances to your lotus feet.

Dear Gurudeva.  Hope your health is good. My it's ok thanks for ask in previous letter :)
4 pples ok [ASA - 4-apples??]. 20 rounds a day, holy name week, hope convince my mind about all my weeks have to be a holy name week... ha ha ha

Question: Gurudeva, I don't usually ask to you, what I have to do, is it something bad? I don't remember the last time you ask me for some service, I not give you a choice to engage me in that or this thing, I just do it. I feel maybe I not give you the place to correct me. I try to follow you on the preach and go forth to get your objetives, but how can I know what a Guru want??? Whats wrong with me? Gurudeva please if you think my concept of serve you is wrong, please let me know.  Sorry for my offences.

HpS - No, it seems fine. Just keep association with some 1/2 sane devotees like yourself, ISKCON administration and then you should have happy inspiration from the Paramatma, no? 

In previous letters you was make me some question thats i never answer, sorry for my impersonalism...


------------------------
Hps: How do you see Vrndavana Dhama reflected in Buenos Aires? Is there any value in Jorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges?
I don't know Vrndavan Dham. Because of that, it´s impossible to know if it reflect or no in Bs.As.  If I make an opinion will be only my speculation. I think a lot about that, we read the books, we make the homework, but the experience you have to live. One can read about love, but if not experiment it, it will only be a concept.  I don't know too much about Borges I remember in the School I have studied a story called "the circular ruins" and it was so detonator for me, because talk about Karma, about God. It what i remember sorry, i'm a donkey girl. 

HpS :What have you learned are the priority things to save when your Karma, Destiny put you in Chaos?
I learned to never leaving aside my religion pples [Apples?]. Do more for Srila Prabhupada. And depend more of Krsna. All He do is Good.
----------
Jung:
You know about Theodore Fluornoy? Is a Psychologist, Carl Jung quote him, some times. http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9odore_Flournoy
He write a book   http://sacred-texts.com/ufo/ipm/index.htm  and as far as i know, he don't know how, don't know why but He knows sanscrit,  without . knowing the language.
----------------

I´m organizing a Indian Festival with some devotees here in Arg. the idea is make it, the next month. Please give us your bless. It's cultural thing directing to non devotees. I want to ask if you agree to use NIOS or ASA like one of the organizers, on this way we will have a festival in the trajectory here in Arg. And maybe when u come can organize de second edition... have to check.... is a possiibility. I will do you tell me.

Thanks to Srila Prabhupada and to you, for never let me down.
Thanks for your time. Sorry for my long letter. I hope to develop consciousness to improve my service.

Your disciple who want to serve you. 
Rati-Manjari Devi Dasi.

ps. attach a SP print screen thats he talk about take disciples. Thanks for accepting me as one.

HpS - ASA - I think ASA / NIOS names can be O.K. as "Participation", no? Honor.

We read the citations about. Théodore Flournoy. Does he have followers in your circle? Would they like, "The Teachings of Lord Caitanya"?

Todas las glorias a Sri Sri Goura Nitay!!!!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!!

Todas las glorias y mis más respetuosas reverencias a sus pies de loto querido Gurudeva!!!!

                ASA - Pies de burro.

Espero se encuentre muy bien de salud, el Señor Nrsimha lo proteja en todo momento.

Disculpe no haber escrito antes,  la mayoría de mis días son como correr en una maratón, pero estoy muy agradecida por todo lo que estoy aprendiendo cada día, pase mi primer semestre en la universidad, fue díficil sobre todo porque tenía muchos ramos dificiles para mi ( biología, química, anatomía), este segundo semestre ya me familiarice con estas materias asi que se me ha hecho más fácil y me ha ido muy bien ( Krishna siempre me ayuda en la pruebas ;)  .

En cuanto a mi reporte 16 rondas/4 principios aunque debo decir que cuando estoy en examenes algunas veces he tenido que recuperar las rondas al día siguiente, esto no me gusta así que estoy tratando de que solo sea en ocasiones muy excepcionales, sigo con mi servicio fijo en el templo los viernes cocinando a las deidades ya llevamos 7 meses, la próxima semana nos cambiamos  de casa, es en el mismo terreno de mis padres, asi que estamos en un período de cambios internos y externos, esparamos aprender de todas estas nuevas experiencias.  Nuestra vida es aveces extraña Gurudeva...Krishna nos esta dando experiencias y oportunidades muy buenas para crecer espiritualmente. 

Tengo una pregunta Gurudeva como puede uno ayudar a aquellos devotos que están alejados, o que sienten que Krishna los ha abandonado?? pregunto esto porque con otras devotas nos gustaría apoyar a las madres que necesiten ayuda...

ASA - It is very personal. Everybody is different. So we have to help them in different ways. Main thing is to call on the telephone. Do service together. Make some thing together for a festival. Send Prasadam.............................................................................................................. ! .

Se despide quién aspira servirlo con el corazón

Alankriti Devi Dasi

* Se están organizando reuniones para organizar el seminario de educación, espero poder servirlo de alguna manera en el servicio que ud realiza con tanta dedicación y amor.

 *Mis hijos Manjari Y Giridhari están muy bien, creciendo y aprendiendo muchas cosas, la Manjari quiere estudiar Astronomía y Teología cuando crezca, espero poder cuidarlos bien Gurudeva ellos son mi mayor responsabilidad y trato de ser una madre amorosa y comprensiva, y a la vez poner limites y explicarles el porque de las cosas, ya que a mi cuando era niña no me decian el porque de esto o lo otro, ese es sin duda mi mayor servicio.

HpS - ASA - Muy bien. Muy bien!!!!  Busca ayuda de otros!!!

Hare krishna querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias, AGT Srila Prabhupada, y Sri Guru Parampara.

Como se siente Gurudev?

        HpS - ASA - Like a Pig! Who "Hare, Hare, Hare Krsna..." chants.

Yo aqui, bien, ya falta un mes para terminar el año en la facultad, muy dificil, pero somos buenos en eso. En este momento estoy espiritualmente raspando, estoy negligenciando sadhu y Guru, no porque quiera sino porque la facultad me lleva mucho tiempo, y tambien vivir en un lugar ajeno, donde hay cierta correspondencia de tiempo en el "hogar" .. estoy descepcionada conmigo, y siempre recordando antes de venir aca, sabia lo dificil que iva a ser , recibo mucha asociacion del mundo y eso es como una droga..mi mentente no esta bien, me cansa, pero seguimos, siempre me cuestiono si no estoy siendo sovervia.. quizas deba irme al templo, pero tambien me cuestiono si eso no seria esquivar a mis deberes...mientras tanto sigo...y voy a seguir. Mis rondas estan bien (16), es un gusto poder recordar a krishna, Mis 4 principios estan muy bien; sigo con el canto II del Srimad Bhagavatam en la escuela Vaisnava, y eso me sostiene y me hace bien.Volviendo al tema, siento que negligencío su asociacion misericordiosa por japa joe.. no puedo despertar, todos los dias pongo el despertador y no puedo..  como puede ser que me pase esto.. usted todavia sigue aqui, y no lo aprovecha , realmente soy un loco ignorante. Me siento  agotada, mi dia comienza a las 5.30 y termina a las 20.00 contando el tiempo de comer.. aveces mal. Japa en el bus (3 hs de viaje por dia), pero no es una buena meditacion / medicacion..Los sabados quedo triste por no asistir a su clase, pero es el unico dia que puedo descansar, el domingo tengo clase del bhagavatam temprano y por lo general los fines de semana me la paso estudiando.   Asi es mi vida de asno .   Lo bueno que rescato de esta situacion  es que se me fueron muchos fanatismos,y siento mas misericordia en mi ... un poquititito. jej 

Lo esperamos para el  Ratha yatra .. muchas gracias por venir, espero Nityananda y los devotos me dejen servirle.

     HpS - ASA - Hare Krsna. Your life is too complicated, no? Put your rounds first. If you have to work less and get lower scores, that is O.K. Put your rounds first and very quickly you will have clear idea how to improve the other things!

Get up early and get your rounds done.

You seem to be doing really well for your level of development. Now next step and then next step and then. . . .  (Kuruksetra!)

Calendar Suggestion urgent

9 years, 7 months ago by candra108_mukhi in Calendar Development

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva 

AGTSP

PAMHO

Hope this meets U in really good health ¡¡

    ASA - A G T S P ! ! !   Brother Ass has a stomach cramp.  Ummmmmph!  <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" />     His hide itches and burns. Maybe tiny insects. Probably allergy. 8.55PM. We are ((((alone))) and it is dark outside!!! Only good thing is having association of people who want to talk about Krsna, SB!

Please forgive us for not writing U early. I just arrived home.. We are pretty tired ¡¡¡

We have been talking with Patraka das and got impact about that proposal,  In the last NIMSAR meeting I personally said what is going to be the suggestions for GM's calendar but nothing was discussed in depth...

HpS:

Peru suggestion is Lima January 1-2, Cochabamba-ba 2-5 and Lima 5-6; and Lima February 4-6, Chosika 6-7 and Cusco 7-9 and Lima 9-10.

O.K? Speak now or forever hold your pizzas.

CMDD: humble suggestion is..due to U arrive at 11pm on December 31st it will be really nice if U stay in Patraka's asram ¡¡¡¡ HE SAID YES ABSOLUTELY YES ¡¡¡¡¡for he is an honor ¡¡¡ NO miraflores available and wilson is TOO austere ..... SO if U agree U can stay at Patrak's until January 2nd 

Honestly it is really necessary to travel to Cochabamba??? or do u prefer to rest and write???

Regarding to cusco .... Patrak told me that in that season there are heavy rains in Cuzco ... what is the program in cuzco ???

And Sattva??? 

well those are our humbly suggestions and questions basically we can arrange that Palika pick U up and then go to Patrak's asram.. 

Thank U very much for your patience and inspiration 

Always trying to be your disciple

Candramukhi dd

       HpS - ASA - AGTSP. Thank you. Of course, we can stay in Patraka Das Ashrama. His family is very nice. Yet it is 3-1/2 months before we arrive so maybe Patrak Das will inherit a 200 foot long, three masted yatch and we will stay on that in the harbor (and serve Radha Madana-bihari)!

I think writing will be minimal during these six weeks of travel. We hope to show the results of our writing during these months of October-December.

Sattva, Abhirama Das, I don't know yet. If he doesn't contact us, we will contact him, no?

LAD is the main contact for Cuzco. He feels with Raghuvaram Das retirement etc. is very nice to go there. Also, Cuzco is close to Arrequipa? Of course if raining travel from Arr. might be hard, no?

Cochabamba / Bolivia seems pretty important. So much chance to give our perspective on education and culture there. See other letter from Om Kesavaya.

Thank you.
Who will we meet? Any ideas?

In cordoba we can organize meeting with you and one profesor of sanskrit , we want to contact the heads profesor of the university of psicology and we are investigating the people of the jung asociation in cordoba for the posibility of a meeting with you. Could be a private meeting with these people or public programs? Maybe intimate programs prasadam and talking? 

HpS - ASA -- If some devotees have robust interest in this area then they could also join us, no? Otherwise may bore them.

The ratha yatra it s 90% the 11 of january but could change to the 10 of january. We have to receive the final confirmation from the mayor of the city of carlos paz he have very good actitude with the devotees and help with facilities to the festival.

the trip to balaram puri it s like 4 hrs by car from cordoba. You can take a flight the 9 go to balaram puri then ratha yatra and if you want the next day of RY have the meeting with the profesors and the next day ,13  or 14 return to bs as.
