HpS - ASA - AGTSP. paoho. Oscar has been very, very uncharacteristically slow in sending his DVD, so TODAY we were wondering what has happened to our efforts. Ha! Ha! Ha! and now you write!
I sent it to your's and Ambarisa's addresses. If you need any more help let us know. We are your servants.
 

Dear Hanumat Presaka Swami:

Really happy of knowing you are coming to Spain.

Is great to asociate with you and srila prabhupada through service on a regular base, but also is great to have your personal physical asociation once in a while.

I got a nice present from krisna in the form of the Eneagram, basiclly this eneagram is and old tool used by jesuists to determing and getting a map of your false ego.

I used with my self and I have discover so many things about my false me. I have What I was doing and why.

This proces has really help me to anderstand my condionet posision and is helping me to understand my real essence.

Prabhupada said that we should be frist councisnes and then krisna councisnes and I belive that the eneagram is a great tool to help devotees to become councisnes, of course our main proces is the chanting of the holy names but again, is hard to de Krisna councisnes if you are not councisnes first.

We are working a lot In Madrid about the self responsabillity of your live.

You can chose at any moment how you want to feel and what councisnes you want to do things with.

Of course most of the times we live on a reactive way fallowing all patrons of behavior and thinking but, the good news we may change if we want, we can detec our patrons, we can modify our paradigms and we can choose (Free wheel) How we want to be, How we want to serve and return to our own, pure, spiritual and unique patron.

Working also a lot with the concept of pain, pain is our great friend, is because of pain that we know there is something to modify, some thing that maybe it was usefull on the past but not any more.

And again if when you have pain, you take the responsability, see the lovig hand of krisna and rhadarani after any thing happening to you, then you aceppt you error, you acept and say , yes, I have something I may Change, I may be a better devotte, a better human being, a better father, mother, son, bosss, emploee if I acept this pain as a sign of love, as a sign of god´s love.

Then I may say I am sorry to who ever I need and I may change my patron to be able to avoid this pain in the future.

If I dont aceppt my responsabillity and I course others for my pain I will not recognise my fake patron and I will have to feell again (By the mercy of krisna and my own karma) the nectar of PAIN.

So Thats basiclly What we are doing now in Madrid trying to understand our selfs, Traying to aceppt our liths and shadows, trying to resolve our shadows and acepting our responsability (The abillity to chose the right response).

Asram mood is really nice, we are distributing service trough pairs so 2 devotees in each main area, in this way you my rest if you need our take some days off if you need to atend a seminar or need to see your grandma.

Great Shadana atmosphere with and a strong traditional morning program with tulasi puja.(Tulasi is growing really healthy and seems quite happy inmerse in Madrid temple´s crazy preaching mood)

The feeling of team, and family is growing day by day.

Wi have a new french bramacary named Rasala Das and Mantri Ram Das and Maybe Nittay (17 years old second generation devotee) are thinking about orenge clothes, I think is a good Idea if they do it properlly.

Well, well, well

My good wife Bhaktin Marta is helping me in an unmessurable way, she is a great saint, supporting me in so many ways and being so renounce and tolerant with this poor Donkey tha is trying to serve you an SP as good and honest as he can.

4-16    90% Full Morning program

Miss you

HpS - Jaya!  AGTSP. Jnana and Vairgya are excellent for getting a foothold in Krsna Consciousness. Citraketu could not focus on the instructions of Angira until he experienced the suffering of seeing his beloved son die. Then he got vairagya and jnana. All of these techniques you are describing are in Krsna consciousness, but we certainly agree that in the beginning it may be useful to get them in another form. Later Hari-nama is enough, but that doesn't mean that Arjuna didn't go on acquiring modern knowledge, modern weapons, no?

I hope our schedule in Spain is efficient and really useful for all of you!! We will be there in just six weeks...

6 eyes see better than 1

3 smiles are better than one

Nitay gaura premanandi !!!!!

HpS - AGTSP -- Paoho.  Thank you. In the center is Jayanta?????

Dear Maharaja Hanumat Presaka Swami,

pamho, AGtSP!

Thank you so much for your valuable association…I will never look at molasses the same way again.

The few moments of your association brought more realizations in Krsna consciousness. Now seeing levels of scholarship in Bhakti and becoming less hesitant in associating with school (still know I’m a fool). Your superbly executed classes also contributed to this too, unfortunately there are not many instructors at your level, regardless am going to continue in pursuance of bhakti “buddhi” as best as possible.

Personal exchanges on the platform of sattya are amazing, so much sincere dialogue just escalates more inquiries and confirmations of our life’s purpose. Unlike any other communications from professional discourses to casual conversation…the technical emotions and profound logic in devotional relations need no actual definition, yet they are available.  Our Sadhana programs seem to encompass all facets of knowledge and desire even if we aren’t aware of specifics, got to love that mercy!
 

Also appreciate the candor of your frankness, just enhances the mood of friendship for old and new acquaintances. For me it also helps understanding my own shortcomings and the lessons of karma, even in “flood-pants”. Our individual demise and personal inequities are valid lessons if we are keen on acknowledging them; such is the potency of the science of self-realization.

The “Jaw-Paw” is still on schedule, new service times have helped, though seva is always waiting for me, learning to prioritize a little better now. Still actually need to focus using fingers, mouth, tongue, ears and mind (not necessarily in that order) while getting mantra-cadence. If done I am able to beat my average 10 minute per round mark. Not easy though, was born to run and that includes my mind, just doesn’t stop so easy. What is good if I can get the “reins on d’ brain” may actually get much faster, will keep you up dated.

HpS - ASA -- AgtSP!   Try chanting a few 3-second Mantras, maybe one round [with love].

We’re all looking forward to y’all’s return visit to Houston; Subhra always appreciates your support and guidance. However, she’s not completely satisfied with how management is handling school priorities keeping in mind it is a new project/ school. Acknowledging this, we also remember some of the trials and tribulations you’ve tolerated in this movement, so patience is being invoked. Ultimately, if decision-makers get too sluggish and splintered there are other devotee facilities, we’ll jockey this horse for now…Yee Haw!

All glories to your service, thank you for your valuable time.

Your servant in training,

caitanya caritamrta das, das anu das.

HpS - ASA - Thank you. Hare Krsna. Krsna was personally arranging all of the dice games, disrobings and finally the battle of Kuruksetra to achieve his ends, no? So we have to look for His plan and "take our place on the Great Mandala, as it moves through our brief moment of time.". See you in 21 days!

In superable picture.

Hare Krishna Gurudev,

Please accept my humble obeiscences, all glories to Srila Prabhupada and Lord Gauranga.

How is your health Maharaj? Couple of weeks back we heard your lecture that was given in Houston, Tx. unfortunately we could hear it completely (stopped in the middle, some issues with internet) Spoke to Radhika Raman Prabhu an hour back and got your information.

ISKCON of Richmond, VA devotees are waiting for your association Maharaj, Is there any chance that you can accommodate a trip to this place (any week-end or anytime at your convenient) in this summer. Now we are a bit stream lined the process and trying to outreach people through "Book Distributions", street Kirtana and celebrating the festivals (inviting the public).

On our personal front, by the mercy of "Nitai Chaitanya Chandra" and "your belssings", sadhana is going well (Chanting and Everyday reading), Attending BYC @ VCU (every Tuesday) and attending "Bhakti Shastri" (all three of us) along with our weekly ISKCON of Richmond program (Book distribution).

And also we have a plan to visit India this summer (after 3 years), Kids and KPDD will leave JUN 13th and back on Aug 09th and I will be leaving on JUL 12th back on Aug09.

Maharaj, it feels like a long time, please consider a trip to Richmond, Va.

Your Humble Servant,

Subala Sakha Das (Srinivas) and Krishna Pramodini Devi Dasi

HpS - Aaaaah!  AGTSP paoho. Such a long, long, time since we have heard from you. It is so sad not to get more frequent news!  Yes, we would like very much to visit Virginia. How to do it???     Practically speaking it seems with your your travels and our travels we are BOOKED almost day to day until 1st week in Octoboer. If you look at our Calendar - ww.jayarama.us/kd/cal.htm, you can see the details:

Nashville, Houston, Nashville, India-Europe, Nashville, West-coasts - Mexico - Houston, South America, Nashville..... 

How about that? We plan a good visit in the Fall or Winter?

Your preaching sounds wonderful and if your travel coincides with the program on the calendar we can meet their also. Of course, our very deept respects to Mataji and "the next generation" in your house.

AGTSP

paoho....   5.52PM. . . .    All letters answered up to one day ago.   Our life airs are really disturbed, (turbed), [(turbed)]..  Little naseau, headache....   Hmmm!   Rama-navami evening. . . .

Guess it is just the same for you.

We have some service in the Sankirtan movement. We have maybe too many services in the Sankirtan movement. We have some "services" that are 70% sense gratification...        We have to purify our service.

Set priorities.

Find the pure and natural motivation in our service.

Avoid bad association.

              Like Arjuna in the BG.   He was associating (as friends, family, enemies) in the wrong way. He had to purify his perspective, all the time...   Hare Krsna.... 

Jaya Sri Rama!
Birth of Rama!
New Life for Us?!!!
