Letters to the editor

HpS - ASA   ---  Yamunesvara Das, We just answered this letter by e-mail. But it is super, super, super to see it here on the Blog also. Everyone should hear about Manipur. Everyone should help to spread K.C. in Manipur.

=============================================

All Glories to Sri Guruji Maharaja and Gouranga Mahaprabhu

Radha Krsnaki Jay and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay

Please accept my humble obeisances unto to Sri Guruji’s padmacharan that I am so happy after getting Gurujis reply. On the other hand we are very sorry to know that Guruji will not come to Manipur this year but we are eagerly waiting February, 2016. For our kind information is there any special programme during May 7-12, 2015 in Braja (Vrndavana)? If somebody comes to Braja for other purpose can we see Guruji there or not? If possible please give us the exact location? Is it ISKCON Temple of Vrndavan?

HpS – AGTSP. Paoho. It is always so nice to hear from you and any Manipuri Bhakta. Please be merciful to us. We are just now fixing our program for Delhi. We are trying to meet with Prime Minister to release our next NIOS book, so it depends on his schedule. I think mostly we will be in Delhi temple and then go to Vrndavana just for a day, but I don’t know.

Please highlight the following quotations and questions?

The fortunate inhabitants of Pitrloka, who preside over the funeral ceremonies, made Aryama into a calf Bhagavatam 4.18.18

There are so many lokas mentioned in the previous chapters e.g. Brahmaloka, Chandraloka, Suryaloka, Indraloka, Dhruvaloka, Sivaloka, Satyaloka etc. Again in the Brahma Samhita 43 sloka mentioned that Lowest of all is located Devi-dhama (mundane world),  next above it is Mahesa-dhama [abode of Mahesa], above Mahesa-dhma is placed Hari-dhama [abode of Hari] and above them all is located Krsna’s own realm named Goloka. Then the realm of Goloka stands highest above all other……….  the first in order is this mundane world called Devi-dhama consisting of the fourteen worlds, viz Satyaloka.

From the above statements quoted from Bhagavatam and Brahma Samhita where will be the different Lokas situated and in which levels? And what are the fourteen worlds? In which books and where we could find the fourteen levels including the planet Earth?

HpS – ASA – SB 2.5.38 +  ... there are details:

Below Bhu-mandala (~Earth) there are seven planetary systems: Vitala, Talatala, Atala... then bhur, bhuva, svarga, mahaloka, janaloka, tapaloka and jana-loka. Those are the 14-worlds. Gandhava loka is in Bhuva-loka.  They are in different parts of the 14-worlds. We really know how to get to our ISKCON Temples and how to go out on Sankirtan. –[;0)---

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das

HpS – We send you more news as we get it, but if you have not done the sequence listed above on the Blog PLEASE try that.   May you have all success in understanding Srila Prabhupada’s books and become the greatest ISKCON leader.

Dear Gurudeva:

Please, accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Thank you for coming to Spain. You are very merciful. 

I still run the children program every Friday at my home. New kids are coming (9 kids in total). We make aratic, bhajan, crafts, theaters, songs... Everything about Krishna pastimes and the Srimad Bhagavatam. One a monthe we, as a group, go to Sunday program in Madrid and once month to Nueva Vrajamandala. 

HpS - Super!

My son Nimai is growing up very fast. He likes being the bhajan leader with his friends. Sarasvati is 18 months. She enjoys everything! and she loves when we all sing Hare Krishna and Jay Srila Prabhupada. 

Thank you again for the Japa joe and mangal aratic program. Somedays it is not easy for me to connect and follow it but, when I can do it, I feel veru fortunate to have your asociation and the other devotees asociation too. 

My report: 16 rounds and 3 Gayatri mantras ok, but I have to improve the quality.

Waiting to see you soon and hoping you are fine when you get this message.

Your aspirant to humble servant,

Purnamasi devi dasi

HpS - ASA --- This Varna-ashrama-dharma is the soil where the seed of Krsna katha can grow. Our Western civilization is so crazy. They think they cannot live without intoxication, meat and useless sexual relations. All just two legged animals, no?   Of course, they may be innocent, so if we learn how to show them the proper example and explanation of VAD then they may be able to follow and engage in Krsna Katha. You service is so nice. Teach parents and children how to help Lord Caitanya and basic principles of civilized life: Japa and Four Principles.

Hare Krisna Gurudeva. Please accept my humble obeisances. AGTSP.

Thank you for your answer and I'm so sorry for the tickets. I'd want to get clear your dates and we had some problems with the comunication and emails (your email acount doesn't exist [[email protected]])

When you come we pay the tickets or if you want we can do a money transfer for you, up to you.

On other hand, I don't know what is Sananda DD doing about "The Encounter of Carl Jung with the Ancient Mysticism of India at Complutense University". She didn't say us anything, I'll write her to ask her if she needs help.

We think is better for you to stay at Madrid's Temple at the first and then go to New Vrajamandala.

We would like you give initiation (1st) to Bhaktin Mercedes and 2nd to Jaramara Hari Das. If you have a plan about other devotees, they are wellcome

When you go out from Spain, do you go to Radhadesh?. If it's true and possible, we want that Jaramara Hari Das and Mantri Ram Das go with you there for a some days (3-4). How looks it?.

HpS - ASA ---  No, no, no...  AGTSP paoho....  Nothing to be sorry about for the tickets. It was easier for me to book them since I know all the details.   On the weekend of the 16th of May we go to Villa vrndavana in Italy and then for the second weekend, yes, we go to Radha-desa. It is the ISKCON Studies Group. They are more like university professors, but 24-26th we may have more time, but also may have to go to England! Best to talk about it on the 13th May.

I hope I can to do some service for you (vapu) when you come.

Your humble servant.

Dandava Das

PD. I send you a recent picture (2 weeks ago)

We follow trying to work for Krisna.

HpS - ASA ---    Thank you! !      How is the family?

How are U?????

HpS - ASA --- 87% alive.

Krsna is with us all the time even though sometimes we dont even realize it. These past weeks HE has changed many things in our life.  

HE sent us very beautiful deities , a lot of service, and responsability. HE also took us out from work in which we were already suffering a lot of anxiety. so we are very happy with that. EVERYTHING HE DOES IS PERFECT! <img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /><img alt="yes" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" width="23" /> <img alt="enlightened" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/lightbulb.png" title="enlightened" width="23" />

We are near to close new cycle at the university and then we have some vacations so we are planning some trips to visit some friends. <img alt="cool" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/shades_smile.png" title="cool" width="23" />

Health is OK! it's amazing how mercyful is Krsna with us keeping us well to do some service.

We are bit more fixed on SADHANA...we are trying to do it in a sane way... 18 rounds daily since january (2 more from the ones we could not chanted while in  hospital, if the calculation goes well then we will completed them in 2 years.... hehehehe), 4 principles, finishing reading "the founder-Acharya" from Ravindra Svarupa Das (this book is awesome) then starting with Srimad Bhagavatam,  and getting up early for rounds!!!

well i guess that is it for now... we will write more often to RE stablish our communication with

KAPI DHVAJA is translated and sent to Yahoo... it is usually in spanish in less than 4 days from the day of release. <img alt="mail" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/envelope.png" title="mail" width="23" /><img alt="mail" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/envelope.png" title="mail" width="23" /><img alt="mail" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/envelope.png" title="mail" width="23" /><img alt="mail" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/envelope.png" title="mail" width="23" />

Todas las Glorias a Sri Sri Goura Nitai

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las Glorias para usted Gurudeva.

Querido Gurudeva. Hace un tiempo que no me reporto y no le escribo...en su visita a Chile hable con usted y le consulte sobre mis sueños con usted, bien todo quedo aclarado y mas tranquila. Tambien le comente que desde que me dio iniciacion (1 año) todo se a vuelto mas dificil, tanto espiritual y en parte material, por que he sido tentada por maya y tuve una mala asociasion bajo mi consentimiento y debo admitir que me he perjudicado en mi vida espiritual por no seguir los principios como le prometi el dia de mi iniciacion, ahora solo pago las consecuencias de mis actos, tambien siento que mis anarthas me atacan y son tantos que me cuesta identificarlos pero me esfuerzo por superarlos de a poco!!

De pronto siento que la lujuria me nubla la inteligencia y hago tonterias, ultimamente siento que tengo ira , mucho miedo y  me cuesta tomar decisiones y varios dias me siento deprimida, he pasado cosas muy dificiles que han bajado el autoestima, creo que es tiempo de buscar ayuda sicologica. Tengo un trabajo de horario comodo, lo cual me hace tener tiempo para realizar un Sadhana estable, cantando Guru Astaka, Govinda ; canto mis 16 Rondas antes del medio dia, ahora hace 1 Mes siguiendo estrictamente los 4 principios (sexo ilicito es el unico no cumplido anteriormente), estoy leyendo las enseñanzas del señor Caitanya el BG por la tarde. Me siento muy hipocrita con mi conducta ya que no puedo realizar mi servicio (ayudante pujari), ya que estuve rompiendo principios con un devoto el cual despues de 10 meses no se decidio a darme la proteccion adecauda y ademas de eso me dio maltrato sicologico,( bajo mi consentimiento) y  eso me a perjudicado enormente, por ahora no hago ningun servicio en el templo, ya que las cosas no estan muy bien, estoy enojada con las autoridades por darle refugio a un maltratador de mujeres, que no canta sus rondas, molesta a otra devotas y mas encima hace servicio y nadie le dice nada!!! yo mejor me aleje del templo  por un timpo hasta cuando pueda aceptar que no soy controladora y asi no presenciar esa tremenda injusticia segun mi criterio ....eso me tiene muy mal.

Por otra parte quiero contarle que hace mas de un mes a llegado Goura Nitai a mi casa, son muy bellos mis pequeñines y me esfuerzo por atenderlos, con una adoracion simple, agua,incienso y fruta, le enviare una foto para que los conozca; que ellos Hallan llegado a mi casa me a ayudado mucho para no desanimarme apesar de mis errores ,sin Duda Krishna siempre nos proteje de todo y nos da lo que necesitamos ,solo me falta tener mas confianza... pienso que no soy digna de tanta misericordia.... aaahh debo contarle que he incluido en mi sadhana Japa Joe desde el 18 de marzo ya que ahora tengo laptop e internet... me ayuda mucho escuchar su voz, sentir su entusiasmo, esfuerzo y paciencia....para alguien como yo tan caida . Tambien en Abril tomare el Bhakti sastri que daran en el templo, espero poder desarrollar las cualidades necesarias de forma seria para tomar segunda iniciacion en un tiempo mas, si usted lo considera necesario!!!.

Le pido perdon por mi arrogancia, la poca inteligencia e ignoracia, ojala me pueda ayudar Gurudeva ya que algunas veces me siento devastada con tanta miseria y muchas veces me siento muy cansada de este mundo material, solo le pido que no me abandone ...

Que el Señor Nrisimhadeva lo proteja en su servicio Gurudeva!!!! 

le envio fotos de mi cara de burra con mi hijo y los Pequeñines Goura Nitai

Mis eternas reverencias su Sirviente Krisangi Devi Dasi

PD:. Hace unos dias le escribi una carta similar no se si le llego por eso le escribo esta . Muchas Gracias Hare Krishna

HpS - ASA - TlgaSP. pfanrh. Eso es casi la misma carta como anteior no???     Muy fuerte su situacion, si.   Pienso los desafios que confronta Arjuna son muy parecido con nosotros.  Adelanta, Prabhu.
No se molesta mucho con las autoridades. Si estan en Maya trata predicar a ellos. Si no acceptan mantener un bueno ejemplo. Actua de una manera bueno en el Templo. Mantener su propio circulo de amigos, comos las Gopis, buen Vrajavasis, circulo de amigos particuluar, relacion indivudual con KRSNA!
