Your trip to Spain

10 years, 2 months ago by Dandava das in Personal Sadhana Reports

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

Don't worry. I can look your travel. I'll work with others devotees in that.

Please, if I understand correctly your dates are:

  • May 7th you're arriving in Brussels at 7:50. ASA- No, maybe we sent wrong information! We arrive in Delihi the 7th at 7.50AM. We come back to Brussels May 13th at 7.55AM.
  • May 7th you'll travel from Brussels to Spain. ASA - May 13th.
  • May 15th you're travelling to Florence or Pisa from Spain. - Yes
  • May 18th you're come back to Spain from Italy.  Yes
  • May 22th you're travalling to Brussels early in the morning from Spain. Yes

Is that right?

I have some questions to buy flying tickets and organize your stay in Spain.

  1. In Florence, are you staying in Villa Vrndavana?  ASA - Yes, as I understand.
  2. Do you know if the Temple in Florence will buy the flying ticket? ASA - No, we have to buy it. We can pay for that ticket from other funds.
  3. Do you want to go to others temples in Spain: New Vrajamandala, Barcelona, Valencia and other projects or do you want to be quieter because you need rest a bit? ASA - We want to go where we can do the best and most to contribute to the Sankirtan! We arrive on 13th about mid-day, so seems best to stay in Madrid and then until we fly to Italy on the weekend.  18th we return so we could go the Vraja mandala for the 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st or if it is good go some place else, but it seems that just one other place would be enough, no? 

I think that's all.

Maybe we can speak about the details by email.

On other hand, we're continuing to work in Madrid's Temple and with other projects in Spain.

By Krisna's Mercy we're restablishing our relationship with some devotees whom we had some differences in the past, some of them are spiritual brothers. This makes me very happy, but we have still work more and more because some devotees don't come to the temple for diferent reasons. What can we do?. We need to all devotees, I think. We're trying to improve spreading Krisna's consciousness in Madrid but we are desqualified.

Thank you Gurudeva for your Mercy and I'm sorry for my English languaje, I'm learning it.

We are in contact.

Your humble servant, Dandava Das.

PD. I send you some pictures of Goura Punima

HpS - ASA -- Yes, we should administer the Temple as ISKCON property and then we should all go there with the attitude that it is ISKCON propertly. Jarasandha and Bhima had dinner together each night and would try to kill each other each day. So certainly we can all go to Prabhupada's Temple and give our association. In other letter Sri Radhe made nice research.

Thank you for pictures. Gaura-Nitai are very beautiful.

Dear Maharaja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I read your answer to Dandava Prabhu about your European tour dates.

Maybe the Spanish devotees have more experience and knowledge about the Spanish airlines but i also tried to find tickets for you.

It seems that Iberia has the cheapest tickets from BRU to MAD.


    Brussels – Madrid
    Wednesday 13-May-15
    11:55 - 14:20
    Duration: 2h: 25m

    Flight operated by Iberia
    Iberia
    Without stopovers - BRU,MAD

    Madrid – Brussels
    Friday 22-May-15
    8:50 - 11:10 (this is the earliest one)
    Duration: 2h: 20m

    Flight operated by Iberia
    Iberia
    Without stopovers - MAD,BRU

 Total price: £ 125.70 (It gave the price in GBP not EUR)


And from Madrid to Pisa the Ryanair is the cheapest.

      Madrid T1 → Pisa

    Friday, 15 May 2015
    09:35 - 11:50 (it arrives before noon. But maybe you want to arrive to Villa Vrindavan by noon <img alt="frown" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/confused_smile.png" title="frown" width="23" /> I don't know...)
    1 Adult, 80.99 EUR
    1 x Adult Fare    80.99 EUR
    
    Pisa → Madrid T1
    Monday, 18 May 2015
    06:30 - 09:00 (maybe it's too early but this is the only one)
    1 Adult, 39.99 EUR
    1 x Adult Fare    39.99 EUR

TOTAL: 120.98 EUR

To Florence there is a direct flight operated by Iberia but it's price is double and it arrives after 12pm.

I hope i could help something.

I just read this article: http://www.theguardian.com/travel/2015/mar/16/ryanair-plans-to-offer-flights-between-europe-and-america

It's a good news. In four or five years you can travel to Europe by Ryanair for Ł10 <img alt="wink" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/wink_smile.png" title="wink" width="23" />

Best wishes always!

Your servant, Sri Radhe devi dasi

HpS - ASA ---- Thank you so much... AGTSP... We had not heard from you for some time and we were in some anxiety. So Iberia and then Ryan.  Also a letter from Dandava, so we look at that.  Thank you!!

Hare Krishna Maharaja Por favor acepte mis más humildes reverencias.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada Desde su ultima visita a cusco y que tome refugio en usted ,han pasado muchas cosas ,tal como usted nos dijo a prabhu Amala Karuna Das y mi que nos casaramos , intercambiamos guirnaldas ,en abril nos casaremos civil ante el juez y ya que usted llega en agosto y si lo permite nos pueda casar por fuego.....Gurudeva estamos esperando un bebe ya tengo casi ocho semanas ,viaje a Lima a traer a mis dos hijos niños aun para que vivan con nosotros y hacer las cosas bien ,en ese viaje me puse mal me internaron en el hospital,y me dijeron que mi salud no es buena y corre riesgo el bebe y yo ,tengo un embarazo de alto riesgo,en algun momento Maharaja pensaron en interrumpir la vida del bebe y yo no acepte ,estoy cantando 20 rondas hago servicio ,atiendo las deidades de Jagannath Subhadra Balaram,aun asi Guredeva con todo esto en mi cabeza no canto buenas rondas con seguridad o me pierdo en el pensamiento,deseo y debo hacer lo correcto,a pesar de todos estos inconvenientes me siento muy feliz con mi servicio y la asociacion de los devotos ,luego nuevamente me gana la mente y olvido que no somos el cuerpo y que ese bebe es un alma ,hay momentos en los que mis pensamientos son vacios y el Maha mantra lo repito talvez por inercia ,por eso pido un consejo , Gurudeva una palabra suya es muy importante para mi para poder guiarme y hacer lo corecto...... Me despido, su sirvienta bhaktin Amparo Hare Krsna.

HpS - TlgaSP. Pfanrh. Su nombre significa "refugio", no?  Si, claro, la Mama tiene fuerte responsibilidad protejar la alma en embrion en su vientre. Pero claro, si va a dejar su cuerpo en el processo, es base pensar sacrificar el cuerpo del bebe. Es algo intenso. Tiene consultar muy bien con muchos. Arjuna tuvo que matar milones de tios, primos, sobrinos...!

Y claro, claro, claro, necesita mucho ayuda de Krsna. Como va a obtener si no canta buen rondas. Eso es el Kali-yuga Dharma. Canta bien para inteligencia y tambien directamente para salud!  Es un hecho, su bebe va a oir, beneficiar, del sonido de Krsna katha, SB, K book etc.

Muy buena suerte con gran felicidad en sus desafilos.

bhakta from india begging for mercy 7

Hare krsna maharaj.

All glories to srila Prabhupada

All glories to you H.H.Hanumatpresaka swami maharaj.

please accept my humble dandavat pranam at your lotus feet.

HpS - ASA - Potato feet.

Respected maharaj

Hope you are in good health.   I am very sorry that i had not written to you for so many days. I always remembered you in my mind .Thank you for the letter that you wrote to me in email. I am eternally gratefull that you have decided to take me as a future disciple knowing my problems.

I didnt want to write because i couldn't keep up to the standards . Few days i didnt chant my rounds .

HpS - Then keep track of your debt and begin to pay it back. Chant an extra round each day. We only neglect chanting because we are stupid, no? It will give us all kinds of benefits!

But now i am back on track. Did my rounds and trying to wake up for mangal aarti . Recently i saw your kapi dwaja and ABC Curriculam . I made a time table for myself keeping mangal aaarti , tulsi aarti etc and the books you mentioned in the ABC curriculum in my daily schedule. I am so gratefull to you  maharaj for making it so easy for me and others.

Since i last wrote to you i went to mayapur dham twice. It was blissfull expirience. So many wonderfull things happened there with me. Second time i went during kirtan mela . I  got to see H.H.Radhanath maharaj , H.H.Sacinandana maharaj , H.H.prahaladananda maharaj, H.H. Candramauli maharaj etc .didnt talk with them as i didn't know what i could say . Just paid my pranam and heard there classes. During sivaratri night H.H.Candramauli maharaj gave me his maha Garland iN Jagannath mandir. I also attended the kirtan mela but couldn't see the the panch tatva deities crying ( i went outside ISKCON to take darshan of radha gopinath and get maha garland in gopinath gauriya math....i was greedy for the garland so i missed the mercy of mahaprabhu... should have stayed in ISKCON only, sorry maharaj).

regarding my service . I did book distribution in train while going and coming back from mayapur dham. during nityananda trayodasi and gaura purniima cooked for the deities and also prepared fruit juices for abhishek. by the mercy of pujari pabhu he allowed me to do abhishek of gaura nitai during gaura purnima. About regular service in temple i mostly do cooking when i go as there . Once i got chance to cook for giriraj ji also. 

Recently i heard a lecture that you gave on JAPA from youtube. It was so inspiring . I could really connect with the concept of homunculus and also how we can worship our japa beads and consider them as like massaging krsna's toes. Thats like we are getting to touch krsna even though we are not brahmin . It was such a awesome lecture maharaj. Thank you.

I saw in your calander that you will be comming to india on 6th of may and visiting sri vrindavan dham. Maharaj please allow me to come with you and be with you during that time . Please maharaj allow me to stay in your association. Out of excitement i already booked my train tickets to mathura on 1st may. Maharaj how can i contact you when you arrive at delhi.

HpS - ASA - I guess we can burden Harsh with job of communication secretary. 919910579879, 919930034241. Se you there!!

I have never been to delhi before alone . Will you be having any phone number that i can call and meet you in delhi and vrindavan or your personal helper's number that i can call . 

I am so excited to meet and visit sri  vrindavan dham with you. It was a dream that i aspired for in my heart to visit vrindavan with you maharaj . With your and srimati radharani's grace i might be allowed to enter Vrindavan and that too with you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Maharaj i have a request . Can i call you Gurudev from now ?

HpS - ASA - No..... ISKCON rule is only when one is a Formal Refugee. That means following for 6-months and get letter of Recomendation from Temple President. O.K?  Maharaja is fine!!!

Sorry for the long letter . I just couldnt stop writing .

Dandavat pranam maharaj. ALL glories to you .

your aspiring servant.
