Letters to the editor

Hare Krisna esteemed and beloved gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada,

Next sunday 21st we will celebrating your auspicious vyasa puja at El Loft.

Class is scheduled between 9:45 and 10:30 am Murfreesboro time.

Everybody here will much appreciate your darshan and wisdom.

So will it be possible for you to give at least a ten minutes class through skype that day at that moment?

I dont know wether you have that day the Nios Nashville program at Global Mall or proper internet connection.

See you for sure on tuesday 23rd,

Trying to reach your lotus feet,

Nikunja Bihari Das.

HpS - AGTSP paoho. We have to call India like 9.30AM our time, so we could be online from 10-10.30AM. Is O.K? You want to use Skype or StartMeeting.com?

Querido Gurumaharaja. Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

Muchas gracias por Sus respuestas.

Hable con prabhu Vanamali sobre la trasmisión online del martes 23, queremos preguntarle a UD, si es posible que la conexión sea a las 7:00 PM ? por favor, para que todos los invitados que asisten a la clase del Bhagavad Gita puedan escucharlo. Unas palabras de Ud por 15 minutos son suficientes, para dar oportunidad a otros hermanos de otros lugares.

ASA - AGTSP paoho. Gracias a Vds. Pienso va a pasar muy bien. 7.00-7.15PM, Hora Mexico. 23rd Deciembre. En el calendario. En la proxima Kapi Dhvaja podemos afilar todo!

Luego nosotros continuamos con proyección de video y teatro de predica:"la historia de Valmiki" como una ofrenda para UD. También necesito saber si en el horario de conexión con el templo de Sri Sri Radha Madana Gopal se pueden conectar otros discípulos de Monterrey, Guadalajara, Uruapan y tal vez Jambavati ?. Cuantas conexiones via skype pueden haber como máximo desde México??

HpS - Por telefono, llamada a EEUU, puede 1,000 personas connectar. Solo audio. Por internet, con visual es 50 personas. Entonces 5 de Mexico no es codicioso, no???

Gracias!

all glories to you guru dev

Guru Dev we want to know for publicity of the jung  s conference that quote of jung where he said same thing like this   that "the psychology in Europe is in diapers compare to the knowledge of the ancient sages of india and china" sorry for my bad memory to remember correctly, it s in the tavistoke lectures?

HpS - ASA = AgtSP! paoho. Sounds like a lot of fun! Go to the Jayaram.usm, archives, one of the first files is Carl Jung and India.docx. All the citations etc are there.

You have a digital book of the tavistoke lecture ? here there are some psychologyst and also the jung foundation in cordoba who want to read and have that material of lecture.

ASA - Harsh sent us a link to an on-line source, but I can't find it now?!! The auto-biography was available, no? That is excellent.

We have the idea to print drawings of Jung from the red book, Jung said that that drawn when he was with mistical expirience (some probably with drugs) and meditation, and some images from the bbt artist (who describe paramatma yogis, etc) and present in the conference of car jung because they have space for artist exhibition. what do you think? 

ASA - Sounds very nice. Some of  The Light of the Bhagavata would also be nice also, no?

thank you guru dev 

your servant Ambarisa das

ASA - Thank you. See you in ~3-weeks!

             S P !     paoho..... 6.06PM. We usually answer the mail this time. Sundown is 4.30PM.  Our back and posterior ache from sitting. Our eyes are failing. We didn't have time for proper Gayatri. Ha!   Ha!   Hare!  But, we are doing pretty well. If we consider ourselves real mercy cases and that Krsna doesn't expect a lot from us and we try to do what tasks He wants first, first, then we are doing O.K.

So much tendency to enjoy devotional sevice, no? Enjoy Prasada as sense gratification, enjoy honor, especially from the opposite sex, enjoy our good image of ourselves as beautiful, artistic, sympathetic, strong . . . 

But how much are we enjoying being appreciated by KRSNA. He's a wonderful person!

Maya devi was very intoxicated, telling everybody, that Krsna liked Her, Aghasura demon!!!
"What a demon!  You've never done anything like that before!"

"Look, look! Krsna likes my demon!"
Is Krsna enjoying us? Is Krsna enjoying our death. Every moment is dying and nothing more. So, can we do it for Krsna? For His applause with His friends.
 

Mails caught up to three days ago.

Had long talk with Abhirama Das, Peru, after long time.
Also, telephone conference with Rama-giridhari Das and Peru and India and Spain translating team for the Kids Sanskrit manual.

Reviewed South America tickets, bought ticket for Florida back to Nashville on the 11th February.

[Keep smelling bananas in our room}   Which is bizaare?   Hmmmm!

O.K. Little more housekeeping.

We got up at Midnight. Got our rounds done etc. then about 3.30 AM we just COLLAPSED.  Ahhhh!  Our liver was just exhausted. Too much intellectual work. All the ketone-bodies [energy cells] finished. Now we are resting. Doing light work. Have Lord Nrsmha deva's and your association.

Priorities:::
16-enthusastic rounds.

4 strict principles

Sankirtan!!!!!   EP.. Hare Krsna.  A good way to die.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja!  All the devotees at the SAC Preaching Center are hoping you will visit us on at least one occasion during your next tour of No. CA in 2015.  Who establishes your schedule?  At what e-address or phone number do I reach him? or it may be Rejeswara Prabhu would contact him as he is responsible for scheduleing speakers.  Hopefully by then, Dave Prabhu and me will be located in larger dwelling, more condusive to sadhana and closer to Sac and you could possible stay with us and we could take your shelter and serve you.

Lila has fallen very ill.  I have literally been up with her once each hour each night for 3 weeks.  We are trying to find out what is wrong with her and if there is a remedy.

Wow!  Turkey. My old stomping grounds!  Will be most interesting to see what Krsna is arranging!

Question:  The devotees call me "Kalindi Mataji."  I would prefer to be called Kalindi Devi dasi, although I appreciate their affectionate "nickname."  Most of the female initiated devotees usually are called by their full, three or even four part, lengthy names whereas the uninitiated female devotees are called by their birth first name along with "Mataji."

They are mostly Indian, very sweet, very fond of me, very respectful to me, both matajis andprabhus.  I do not wish to offend them.  I have studied Kalindi Devi quite a bit in shastra.  I feel "Kalindi Mataji" is a personal term of endearment whereas "Kalindi Devi dasi" reminds me constantly of  who I really am and what is my true position.

But perhaps it is just my false ego.  Is it ok to ask them to address me as"Kalindi Devi dasi?"   I think "Kalindi Devi dasi"  is good, Viasnava etiquite? unless one is in a hurry to get my attention, in which case "Kalindi Mataji" is understandable on occasion.  Please give me your opinion and I will follow it,

All glories to Mighty Srila Prabhupada!  All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga!  pamho

YWS,  Kalindi Devi dasi

HpS - AGTSP. Esteemed Kalindi Devi Dasi, Prabhu,
Thank you for your letter. You are kind of like St. Francis and the wolf. Taking care of an UNUSUAL spirit soul in a dog body. Usually dog has to become human then go back to Goloka, but maybe Lila is going to get a "Booster Rocket".
Our Calendar is just fixed here in the Blog. Really no where else. Now we are just looking at:

January-Feb 11 - South America.

Feb 11-March 5th - Nashville, Houston, (?) Chicago.

Then based in Nashville and MAYBE Peru again in July and Houston, West Coast - End of July through Janmastami.

Janmastami, August and then back to Nashville and Fall Winter in Europe, India, (?) Australia.

So, no details for Sacto etc now.

3). We could not find it, but in Hamlet the Danish King receives the Norweigian minister and asks him, "How fares our Cousin, Norway?". So, the King is called by the name of the country and the Minister is ofter called by the name of the King.
If someone calls you Kalindi Mataji, you can take it as, "Tall Mataji", or "Intelligent Mataji". "Kalindi" is this sense is an adjective. What kind of Mataji are you? You are a Kalindi Mataji.

You are a Mataji in terms of Kalindi, who is your Mistress.

Do sincere service to you and She will certainly reveal Herself to you. She is the liquid form of Visaka Devi, no?
Best of luck in your service!

Hare Krsna Maharaj

Hope when you get this report your health is fine and Tommy the tooth is behaving.

HpS - ASA - San Thomas the Tooth has left our body. I wonder what the dentist does with them. I guess he has some kind of Medical Waste service. Interesting. Useful in the body, dangerous trash when disconnected. Like us and Krsna, no?

This is Paula Quezada from chile (36), subproduct Antonia (14)

I really want to thank you for your good wishes and answers in my past letter.

About what you said that we should try to think as Vaikuntha as a different place from here and wanting to leave this place, that is a feelling that I`ve been wronly having for most of my life. I grew up wanting to get out of here, but not knowing where to or what for. After reading Srila Prabhupada`s books i was able to understand that in fact this is a miserable place, but he has given us the unvaluable treasure on guiding us on our way back home. The point is that the feeling i grow up with make me kind of hate this world, but now i understand that the point is not hating it, but getting out of it, but i really need to consider the world i live in as beatiful, as it is Krsna`s creation, and i can mantain in it without falling in a depression!!!!! From this point of view, i can asure that Srila Prabhupada saved my life.

HpS - Is like a prison or mental hospital, no? No we begin to become sane enough to realize that all our fantasies of being Romeo and Juliet are just the fantasys in the Mental Hospital. With that realization the Mental Hospital becomes a nice place. The society makes arrangements for our comfortable stay during recuperation, enough irritation so we won't want to stay, and while we are here we can help Dr. Krsna with the work in the Mental Hospital, if He wants we can work here with Him forever. Narada Muni spends a lot of time like that.

Regarding my Sadhana, im fixed with my garlands service in the temple, getting up at 5 am for home mangal aratik. Chanting 16 rounds in japa beads, sometimes enthusiatic others full of mind, but always trying to improve. Following 4 regulative principles strictly. I also mantain my daily readigs of BG, SBH, NOI, NOD and ended the Mahabarata, wich, i have to say was very interesting and clarifying of things and situations i didn`t now. I also make my own archive of your archives and now i intend to print them as for me, reading in the computer is not very effective, im attached to papper!!!!

I ended the disciples course of ISKCON and waiting for having the date for participating in Bhakti sastri.

The community here is very enthusiastic because of the first congress of education in ISKCON, making activities for rasing fonds, working together in the team of Srila Prabhupada...

P. Amara gouranga Das, our temple president, told me he sent you my formal recomendation  and i saw my name in the list of refugees in guru tattva. Does this mean that i can formally consider that you accept me for trying to aspire to become your disciple???

HpS - AGTSP. Yes, now you are a Refugee. I liked it better when the title was Aspirant, but Refugee maybe is more honest. Six months as a Refugee and you can take first inititation. THen second, third....

I have something to tell you though, because the first time i ask for your refugee, one year ago, your response was for me to read the guru tattva document, but as im an idiot i took that answer as a yes and been chanting your pranam mantra since then, Im really, really sorry if my ignorance make me commit an offense on you Maharaj...anyway i want to thank you for always being nice with me, responding my letters and giving me advice. Your guiadance is my only shelter in trying to undestand Lord Caitanya`s message and the teachings of srila Prabhupada.

Looking forward for counting with your holy association soon...

In a stupid attempt of trying to aspire to be your servant,

Bhaktin paula Quezada

HpS - AGTSP paoho. No, offense. Is just a small detail. We will see you in just 38-days, no?  Of course, we can all die at any moment. Past sixty it is a reality if you have a USA body like mine. As long as we are chanting HK / HR we are all packed-up on the Spiritual Platform. Even now I am thinking of nice walks up to the Alemeda to visit the Lion and association with the devotees. You are the life and light of Chile. Don't let the light go out!
