Hare Krsna!

Esteemed Radhacharan Das

Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada, Bhakti Svarupa Damodara Swami and all the Manipuri Bhaktas.  It is so, so, so nice to hear from you. The only person who regularly writes to us, writes to us, is Mukta - Yamunesvara Das from Thoubal.

We will be in Delhi from 7-12 May but will be too short to go anywhere else. Then we expect that we will be in India for a few months starting February 2016.

Of course, we always want to help the Sankirtan in Manipur and expand the glories of Manipur to the rest of the world.

We are doing a lot of work with the Ministry of Education for ISKCON - Primary Schools, Universities...

How is your Japa vrata, Temple and schools and Manipur?

Our respects to Ekanatha, Bana-mali, Sadhu, everyone!

All Glories to Sri Gujuji Maharaja and Gouranga Mahaprabhu

Radha Krsna Ki Jay and Groura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Juru Maharaja’s padmacharan that after a long gaps I got Gurujis reply of my letters. I am so happy to get Gurujis reply as asirbad and amrtabani. I will try to upload in the blog at my level best but sometimes I could not open and sometimes the message could not send properly. That is why I send the letter through the email.

I am regularly reading Srimad Bhagavatam one or more slokas now it reach upto 4.11.30-32 Svayambhu Manu’s advice to his grand son Dhruba Maharaja not to kill Yaksas who killed his stepbrother Uttama by one of the Yaksas.

     HpS - ASA -  AGTSP     Yes, if you can work through the Blog it is so much more efficient, but it is our love for Manipur that makes us try to communicate anyway.

Seems that Dhruva Maharaja let himself go a little crazy, passionate, in his war with the Yaksa, thinking that since he is a Ksatriya, then one of his Ministers or family members will pull him back to goodness.

 According to astronomical calculation, along with the polestar there is another star, which is called Sisumara, where Lord Visnu, who is in charge of the maintenance of this material world, resides. Sisumara or Dhruvaloka can never be reached by anyone but the Vaisnavas, as will be described by the following sloka. Srimad-bhagavatama 4.12.27 and

As Sisumara, Visnuloka or Dhruvaloka are completely different from this material world, so a Visnu temple within this world is also completely different from this material world. 4.12.29

In these two quotations, there is a confusion that is the three names Sisumara, Dhrubaloka and Beikuntha or Visnuloka are the same loka? And we simply heard that any living entities who climbed up to the Veikuntha loka will automatically return and get the birth and death bodies but here Dhruva Maharaja get the Dhrubaloka and mentioned by Narada that he will never return and the birth and death life. Please clarify the truth.

              HpS - Yes, no one is forced to return from Vaikuntha. Is a thief is being chased by the police for stealing a woman's purse, and he runs into the French Embassy in Delhi, the Delhi police cannot follow him. Legally, the French embassy is NOT a part of India. Iindian laws, police, military have no authority there.

So, like that, no? Dhruva loka (which it seems is also called Sisumara) is an Embassy of the Vaikuntha world.

We the bhaktas of Thoubal celebrated Goura Purnima (appearance day) of Gouranga Mahaprabhu on the 5th of March in the evening (Sandhya) with abhisek and change of dresses with arati and other sankritans along with brata. And in the next day we invite some local people and arranged prasadam for about 35 members. For about 2 hours we performed nama sankritana and different bhajans.

   HpS - Super!!!

Please let us know   the timing of Guruji’s visit India and Manipur, especially for Thoubal unprotected neophyte devotees. No one is taking care from the ISKCON so the bhaktas and beisnabis of Thoubal  are waiting like orphan. But one day or other, some one or other will send any guide for us to guide in the way of spiritual life, in this hope we are chanting his holy names. 

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das

HpS - AGTSP - Paoho. We are in Houston, Texas for 12-days, working very hard with Primary School, Internation Education Projects and with disciples.

Dear Guru Maharaja, Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and the unstoppable movement Sankirtan of Sri Gauranga.

I hope your sankirtan always stay equally unstoppable Gurudeva. I was follow his tour of Latin America and the education congress in Chile. Thank you for being such example for me.

For the short time I had and knowing that you was very busy, I arriegue to send a letter with Prabhu Patraka to order your important blessings. By the mercy of Krsna excelsa I am now in Vienna, Austria, by ascholarship from the University. Immediately I can appreciate the protection of his refuge, because from the first moment that I arrive to Europe a matayi waiting for me, a home and prasadam.

      HpS - ASA -  !!!!!!! AGTSP  !!!!

Now I live with 3 matays of Russian origin, wth the shelter of Sacinandan Swami Maharaja. They are very protective and have a similar project to the Mexico. A Ashram for matayis to study or work. In Vienna the brake preaches a few years ago, there was temple and Gurukula, but for management problems, now just are only few devotees. There are now only a Bhakti Viriksha every weekend into a new center preaches that are driving. And a monthly harinam. On Saturday we celebrate Gaura Purnima here Everything was very fast Gurumaharaja, is a huge project that excites me, but while I need his blessings and his instruction.

Sorry if this sheep walk without asking for direction ... I have a cuestion Gurumaharaja, sometimes I can see that the disciple always ask to the Guru what to do or where to go. And in my relationship with you, I not ask to you what I have done, I wonder if that's right or I need to try more to care this relation with good cuestions for my life or maybe about to the philosophy. Thanks for all Gurudeva

     HpS - AGTSP.   You, we, all need advice!      Best to ask lots of people.   Especially we are counselors in terms of Diksa - rounds, principles, but then you can ask many other people, gurus, devotees, ladies, mother, father... When do you come back to USA. Maybe we will see you in May in Europe.
