Please accept my humble obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada

I am writing to thank you for your asociation during this time. You taught through many details, so many that it is sometimes difficult to remember them all. Anyway, I will try to be Gandharva dasa with enthusiasm someday, I thank you for your great kindness to me.
I would ask permission to worship Jagannatha Baladeva Subhadra at home. My wife and I have much affection for them, since the beginning of our devotional life. It has presented an opportunity to have this home deities and I wonder if you allow us to worship them.

I trully hope  this year it's magnificent for your preaching,  Gurudeva

With love

Your  servant

HpS - Thank you for all of your help. It was worth thousands of dollars.... Yes, it is very nice for you to start worshipping, J-B-S!!!  Ask Gaura-gadadhara Dasi for details, no?
Send us more news and the questions that you have for your spiritual advancement.

VIJAYA EKADASI NIMSAR's REPORT

10 years, 4 months ago by Germán Vegas in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

Hare Krishna Gurudeva
Please accept my humble obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada

I am writing as usual on Ekadasi. I hope you are well, recovering from fatigue after your trip. This morning we had a NIMSAR meeting via Skype, the first since the board meeting last Tuesday. We have talked about finding ways to deal with administrative matters with the authorities, knowing that there are many views about education and affiliated groups as NIMSAR. We are hoping that we will convene a meeting to give us feedback on our request.

We have also addressed administrative issues related to the courses to begin in early March. On Wednesday we will reconvene to work on details concerning our beginning of academic activities. Finally, we talked about the Guru - Disciple course and the possibilities we have to take it with Prabhu Param  Padam, inviting other devotees to do it with us. I will be telling you the outcome of these events.

Greetings from everybody  and hoping your preaching is going on successfully.

Your servant

Gandharva das

NIMSAR secretary

HpS - ASA -- AGTSP Paoho. Let's do some strict organization:

1) The Vision and Mission Statement you made in the last Report are very nice.

2) By next Ekadasi we need to have a Statement of Requirements for the Membership in Nimsar, a list of the Members of Nimsar and the special qualifications and duties for the President, Secretary and Treasurer.

If we go ahead like this we will be qualified to managers of  San Marcos University within three years.<img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

BHAIMI EKADASI NIMSAR's REPORT

10 years, 4 months ago by Germán Vegas in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

Hare Krsna Gurudeva
Please, accept my humble obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada


How are you Gurumaharaja? I hope your trip is bringing you and the spiritual brothers satisfactions and realizations. I am glad to tell you that the NIMSAR team is preparing the courses for March. We have taken the decision to offer Bhakti-sastri, Bhakti-vaibhava, Introduction to Bhakti-yoga and the worship six week seminar for the first semester of the year, so we go gradually implementing new courses. Actually we have no rush. We must be aware to prepare and enable us while we do with others. In this way, we have asked mataji Isvari, who is already in Chile for the education congress, to contact Param Prabhu Padam to ask him if it is possible to receive a special VTEcourse exclusively for NIMSAR. If this is not possible, we will do it anyway by ordinary means. We are willing to prepare better for the challenges of the future. 

We've also summarized the Vision and Mission document and has resulted in the following way:

VISION

• We will contribute to the formation of ISKCON spiritual leaders, teaching them the basics of Vaishnava philosophy and other important issues, collaborating in this way with the mission of Lord Caitanya.

• We aim to be a leading educational alternative for spiritual, intellectual and physical development of devotees and society in general conducting classroom and distance education programs.

MISSION

• We are an educational institution dedicated to the academic training of devotees through the systematic study of philosophy and practice of the principles of bhakti yoga, enthusiastically participating in the temple programs and the sankirtana of our spiritual masters. For this purpose, we teach specialized courses and organize classes and seminars.

Do you have any suggestions on this? Please, let me now your opinion.

We are looking forward for your return.

Your servant

Bhakta Germán

HpS - AGTSP paoho. We have not been answer mail while traveling. Now back in USA. Your letter is very nice. We would like an official list of the courses you are offering. For example, we have not discussed the Bhakti vaibhava course. So far the classes I have been joining are informal. They are not approved by ISKCON formally. That has to be adjusted.

Lets look at the next letter. <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

AGTSP!   Paoho & Bw...
Oink!   Whoop!   Back in the United Snakes of America, our home. We are sitting in Tandavika/Musa's ashrama in Franklin, Tennessee. Outside some snow flakes are falling. Our 67 year old body is O.K. energy is low from the 22-hours travel and all the Sankirtan work before we left Peru and South America.

Now we have to get a local rhythm.

We will go to Murfreesboro on Friday. Full morning program (FMP) on line daily at Start Meeting. Hawaii class tommorrow.

First priority seems to be making a proposal to Eduardo Gastelumendi to write a book together (with Monkey and Piggy) and some others, publish it by July and then have a big symposium based around the result at the Peruvian National Library for two weeks in August.

O.K?

We will be in Tennessee until the day after Gaura-purnima. Then we go to Texas.

Dear Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj,

Please Accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!

It would be great to see you. My route is currently on the west coast. I travel constantly as far southeast as Arizona and as far Northwest as Washington. If you let me know in advance when you'll be in the area, I can plan my travels accordingly. You can reach me at 310.503.2989, or at [email protected], at your convenience.

P.S.

I didn't mean to give the wrong impression... I'm a horrible book distributor, I just try to help my team do big!
