new temple

10 years, 8 months ago by bhaktakenny in Personal Sadhana Reports

Dear Swamiji, PAMHO, AGTSP. If Ramal Swami asks me to and you approve I will do it. In the mean time I finished the ISKCON Disciples course and the Teacher Training Course 1 this week. Aghastya Muni, the temple president will give me the initiation test and reccomend me. Would you consider giving me first and second at th same time so I can be able to go start a temple? I also expect to start teaching the bhakti shastri course in July or August. I guess Krishna is putting me to work. Your servant, Ken

HpS - AGTSP!  paoho.  Let's go a little slow (little). First initiation, then some regular Bhakti life, then BhSastri diploma of some sorts, then...    2nd, 3rd...  Initiation.    A photo of your miserable self. What happened to you Bio-logical Mom? Our bio-logical parents both went to their rewards some time ago, but we are sure that our little effort for ISKCON is helping them ENORMOUSLY!!!

Changing venue.

 Hare Krishna Dear Gurudev, Please Acept my obeisances .
Jay Srila Prabhupada !!!


I beg your pardon since I've been busy/struggling to write this letter and forgetful too...
I move out the temple to a Preaching space,or Ashrama in the core of the city, which is more engaging, fun, and familiar, unlike my sit at the temple(was alone most of the time and bored not much association). At the ashram, there's a chance to study outside and practice KC with ease, which is also another reason why I moved out here.
since then everything has improved, my chanting, Preaching through harinam or evening programs, more inspire to read, and I feel more happy  in general, waiting for the S.B. that's being retained in the S.American aduana , let's see when they can ship it to sydney,just eager to have it and read it .

we visit Radha gopinath at least every sunday morning for G. puja ,the lecture, and prasadam, we're going to mangalarati now on sundays :)
we're Having 3 weekly programs which are based on kirtan+prasadam, and on THRsdays some workshop of B.G. or for expamle the current one now is how to control the mind+ helping at govindas resto too.
 
if you like, I'd love to gather with you Maharaja, and devotees in India next year, so was wondering if there's a chance to know the agenda for that trip.

HpS - AGTSP!    Very nice to hear from you. Do not have the ticket yet but rough plan is Feb, Mar, Apr in Bharatavarsa, then really retire to more introspective mode, then leave body November 2024.    \'9'/



I hope your health is OK Gurudev, my best wishes for you !

ASA - 67 year old American Ass!  Vision, hearing, memory, teeth are going. But heart fine and respiration pretty good. How is the Gopinatha Pujari, Madhu manjari Devi Dasi et al?

trying to serve you.

Hare Krishna  Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

HpS - Thank you!   AGTSP!    Has she read Thomas Akampis, "Imitation of Christ"? It is biggest selling Christian book after the Bible. Is nice. Is hundreds of years old.  You could read it together.

I will look for the book and order it , i google it and i looked really old so i would buy so i can read it with her.

HpS - Pantheism. Chapter 10 Bhagavad gita and Canto Two, Chapter One for him, no?

Neither the hosts of demigods nor the great sages know My origin, for, in every respect, I am the source of the demigods and the sages.

chapter 10 verse 2 right ? i will talk to my dad about that verse but i know that he will just listento me just to be polite.

HpS - No, more the verses that give exact examples, "Among fish I am the shark". Also you can see the panthestic ideas of Prabhupada in the purports and present those to him as you ideas etc.
 

ASA - Prasadam milk for the cats, no? Keep a little register of your Japa for one week and then send it for us to read!!!

thanks for recomendations maharaja i will surely give them prasadam milk is yogurt prasadam better ? 

HpS - As long as it is Prasadam. You can even smear burfi on their paws and they will be forced to lick it off!!
I will do a register of my Japa Weekly okie, thank you maharaja

Pd: Where are you right now , how is your health ? 

Haribol
Bhakta Juanka

HpS - We are in Newark, California. Part of the San Francisco area. Health is O.K. for a 67 year old ass. Next Boise.

Congregational preaching

Dear Swamiji, AGTSP, PAMHO.

My visit to Manila in March has left me with a taste for preaching and now Krishna is fulfilling that desire. The Sunday feast crowd will be divide into 2 groups. I will give class to the younger and newer devotees. I am thinking of starting with Sri Isopanisàd, then move on to NOI and Light of the Bhagavata? I want to bring them to rhe point where they can take the ISKCON Disciple Course.

Because soon the IDC will be a requirement for initiation. Whether or not I go to open new temples I want to become more involved in training and education of devotees.

HpS - Jaya!!!!!  AGTSP.   Prabhupada Lilamrta is available also? That is very nice book also for new people. Lilamrt and NOI the same time maybe. Isopanisad is very technical. I think Prabhupada only did it so that we would have SOMETHING that is Sruti, directly from the Vedas, for big, big, proud scholars.
