Hare Krsna Gurudeva

Porfavor hacepte mis humildes reberencias 

Todas las Glorias a Srla Prabhupada quien nos ha traido este glorioso regalo de sankirtana!

Ahora me encuentro en cueramaro mexico. El cierre de la maraton fue el fin de semana pasado,por su miscericordia y el consejo de una sonrisa de fierro distribui 5600 libros pequeños, 80 SB , 70 viajes y 70ciencias,y 68BG, sin enbargo gurudeva me siento insatisfecho  , ayer escuche en la clase del SB q por no satisfacer al guru uno siente insatisfaccion en su servicio.

                  HpS - ASA --- Jaya! TlgaSP!   Super bien. No deseas nada mas. Si despues de un Maraton necesita tiempo para refleccionar, como mejorar mi servicio. Nada mas.

El plan ahora con P Aravinda ----( mi Siksa directo)>>> es ir a colombia venezuela y panama hasta mayo con el fin de predicar y distribuir libros de manera masiva, estube consultando con el sobre colectar algo para la madre Jambavati pero me dijo q por estar en el Brahmacari ashram no podia contar con nada de mi colecta, me propuso hacer un dia de sankirtan todo el grupo por la madre sin emvargo ya salimos el 24 de enero para Sur america y no se muy bn cuando lo vallamos a hacer.

Gurudeva disculme molestarlo, pero es ueq no siento q lo este sirviendo adecuadamente, ultimamente me ha costado mucho levantarme temprano a cantar el santo nombre y despues de la maraton me siento sin entusiasmoue por mi vida espiriyual, porfavor quiciera saber ueq piensa de los planes de predica en los que voy a participar,  como puedo satisfacerlo con mi insignificante servicio, pues mi vida carece de valor si no sigo sus instrucciones.

Gracias querido y recordado Gurudeva Ud es mi fuente de inspiracion 

Su Insignificante Sirviente Vrajendra Kumara Das

                 HpS - Enfoque en cantar sus rondas. Como un soldado si hay gusto o no. Pedir a Krsna dar consejo por la Japa.

AgtSP!

Agt Guru y Gauranga!

Pamho, Dandavats Maharaja!

Hare Krsna Maharaja, soy Bhakta pablo del Parikrama de españa, otra vez.

Espero que se encuentre muy bien en todos los aspectos, y que Krsna le de mucha fuerza y bendiones.

Perdone que le escriba otra vez tan rapido, pero queria contarle que he tenido diferencias serias con unos devotos senior del Yatra español. Segun parece, en una reunion de Sankirtaneros, he utilizado " mis poderes misticos " para que cantaran Hare Krsna en vez de distribuir libros...¿¿¿¡????, yo no lo entiendo. Lo unico que hice fue cantar Hare Krsna incesantemente, externamente e internamente....yo creo que todo ha ocurrido porque hay movimientos politicos internos y la gente no se fia de nadie.

Por todo esto yo me he sentido muy ofendido, y como consecuencia  de ello me he comportado como un loco, sin utilizar inteligencia o el corazon. Incluso me he planteado muy seriamente el irme a India un tiempo largo en vez de estudiar, pero Varuna tiene solo 6 años y faltan años para que mis responsabilidades terminen.

Lo mas importante que queria contarle, es que me he dado cuenta que todos los problemas que me he causado son producto de mi lucha interna por no rendirme a Krsna, y a Usted. Soy MUY desagradecido con Usted, lo se. Solo le causo dolores de cabeza y de corazon, y Usted solo me da misericordia y misericordia. NO SE como lo hace, yo no podria.

Hoy, gracias a Usted, los devotos y Krsna, me he dado cuenta que llevo muchos años mostrando una rendicion artificial. No he dado ni un solo paso real para rendirme a mi Maestro, Usted, y a Krsna, Dios. Le he exprimido igual que los Karmis a Madre vaca. PERDONEME SE LO RUEGO.

Quiero ser su discipulo, estoy perdido sin usted. Voy a hacer lo correcto para  presentarme como aspirante formal si los devotos me lo permiten.

Estoy arreglando la caravana e intentando ver los seminarios de Sankirtana de Vaisesika Prabhu para poder hacer Sankirtana viajero y aprender a hacerlo( soy muy malo ).

Majaraja, las 16 rondas minimo, los 4 pricipios estrictos ( bueno, comi un poco de chocolate ), programa completo de la mañana y tarde, y lectura de Caitanya-Bhagavata mañana, Sri bhajana-rahasya tarde y Krsna-book noche.

---Me gustaria decirle que siempre he hablado con los devotos de mi vida pasada sin problemas, nunca lo he ocultado, muchos lo saben todo.

---Tambien me gustaria comentarle que virginia lleva años espiando lo que escribo aqui, es malo para mi, pero pensaba que le serviria de ayuda espiritual. Ahora me he dado cuenta que no, asi que tengo que comunicarme de otra manera.

A SUS pies Maharaja.

Su TONTO tonto Bhakta pablo.

P.D;Ya le puesto una foto pequeña en el Altar en vez de grande, como Usted quiere. --- Mi sargento decia que era-soy mas bruto que un ÑU.

Hare Krsna/ Hare Rama!!!

Pamho , dandavats Maharaja !

Hare Krsna Maharaja, Bhakta 'm pablo Parikrama of Spain again.

I hope you are well in all aspects , and Krsna very hard and bendiones .

Sorry to write again so quickly , but I wanted to tell you that I have had serious differences with some senior devotees Yatra Spanish . It seems, at a meeting of sankirtan , I used " my mystical powers " to sing Hare Krsna instead of distributing books ... ¿? ? , I do not understand. All I did was incessantly chanting Hare Krsna , externally and internally .... I think it all happened because there are internal political movements and people do not trust anyone .

For all that I have felt very offended , and as a result I behaved like a madman, without using intelligence or the heart . I 've even raised very seriously India go a long time instead of studying , but Varuna is only 6 years old and missing years to complete my responsibilities .

The most important thing I wanted to tell you is that I 've realized that all the problems that have caused me are the product of my inner struggle not to surrender to Krsna , and You . I am very ungrateful to you , I know. It only caused headaches and heart, and you just give me mercy and mercy. NOT as it does, I could not.

Today, thanks to you, the devotees and Krsna , I have realized that I have many years showing an artificial surrender. I have not taken a single step to true surrender to my Master, You , and Krsna , God. I've squeezed like a cow Karmis Mother . Forgive me Please.

I want to be his disciple , I'm lost without you. I will do right to introduce myself as a formal candidate if devotees let me.

I 'm fixing the caravan and trying to see seminars Sankirtana Vaisesika Prabhu Sankirtana traveler to do and learn to do it.

Maharajah , the minimum 16 rounds , 4 pricipios strict (well, ate some chocolate ) , a full program of morning and afternoon reading Caitanya- Bhagavata morning bhajana- rahasya Sri Krsna -book afternoon and night .

--- I would like to say that I have always spoken to the devotees of my past life without any problems, I've never hidden , many know everything.

--- Also I would like to comment that brings years spying virginia what I write here , it's bad for me, but thought he would serve for spiritual help. Now I 've realized that no , so I have to communicate differently.

Maharaja YOUR feet .

Your silly SILLY pablo Bhakta .

PD ; Now you put a small photo on the altar rather large as you want . --- My sergeant said it was gross - I'm more than a GNU .

Krsna Hare / Hare Rama !

                    HpS - AGTSP. pfanrh. Muchas gracias su carta. Siempre siento mucho amistad con Vd. Tiene su Karma, su naturaleza. Cado uno, Virginia, Varuna, Jayanta, Yadu Swami... Cada tiene su naturaleza. Muy bien. Adelantamos. Tiene que pedir desculpas de unos si esta ofendiendo ellos. Y oir de ellos como puede adjustar cosas como todo esta bien. PERO adelante con su naturaleza. sus "poderes misticos" con la base loco de rondas, principios etc.!

paoho

Here we are in Santiago. With stomach ache from tension. Every day has like five events now. Guess we are getting ready for Goloka where every day has 108 events.

How are you all?

We just finished 10-blog letters and 10-yahoo, Skype letters. Yahoo letters usual to GBC etc. We are caught up to 2 weeks 3 days on the Blog. Many, many annual V'Puja letters. Quite nice.

Have to scan a lot of the Spanish praise but catch the general idea and note more carefully special details.

Now we are just leaving for The Casa of Monedas. It is a world class theater and arts center for 3,000 people. Rodrigo et al have arranged to show Oscar and Peru Rodirigo's LOB movie there. We will introduce it and do a one hour interview with magazine"Somos".

On the anniversary of Lord Caitanya's Sannyasa we got a new Danda, walkings stick, Prasadam from Srila Prabhuapada's Vyasasana. We offer our obeisances to our Sannyasa Gurus, Sri Sri Hansadutta and B. S. Damodara Swami's

O.K. Here we go to the House of Money.

nama om visnu-padaya krishna-presthaya bhu-tale

nama om visnu-padaya krishna-presthaya bhu-tale

srimate bhaktivedanta swamin iti namine

namaste saraswati debe gaura-vani-pracarine

Dear Guru Maharaja

Life is an ongoing struggle, as indicated by Srimat Bhagavatam:

nimittāni ca tasyeha
 proktāny anagha-sūribhiḥ
svato jñānaṁ kutaḥ puṁsāṁ
 bhaktir vairāgyam eva vā

Spotless devotees of the Lord have mentioned the source of such knowledge. How could one have knowledge of devotional service and detachment without the help of such devotees?

Purport: 

There are many inexperienced persons who advocate self-realization without the help of a spiritual master. They decry the necessity of the spiritual master and try themselves to take his place by propagating the theory that a spiritual master is not necessary. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, however, does not approve this viewpoint. Even the great transcendental scholar Vyāsadeva had need of a spiritual master, and under the instruction of his spiritual master, Nārada, he prepared this sublime literature, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Even Lord Caitanya, although He is Kṛṣṇa Himself, accepted a spiritual master; even Lord Kṛṣṇa accepted a spiritual master, Sāndīpani Muni, in order to be enlightened; and all the ācāryas and saints of the world had spiritual masters. In Bhagavad-gītā Arjuna accepted Lord Kṛṣṇa as his spiritual master, although there was no necessity of such a formal declaration. So, in all cases, there is no question about the necessity of accepting a spiritual master. The only stipulation is that the spiritual master should be bona fide; i.e., the spiritual master must be in the proper chain of disciplic succession, called the paramparā system.

Sūris are great scholars, but they may not always be anagha, or spotless. The anagha-sūri is one who is a pure devotee of the Lord. Those who are not pure devotees of the Lord, or who want to be on an equal level with Him, are not anagha-sūri. Pure devotees have prepared many books of knowledge on the basis of authorized scriptures. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and his assistants, under the instructions of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, have all written various literatures for the guidance of prospective devotees, and anyone who is very serious about raising himself to the standard of a pure devotee of the Lord must take advantage of those literatures.

Only with your help can be understood what happened 

just by the help of the devotees one can chant the HOLY NAME

hitherto I cant undestad any thing, just chant by the Prabhupada's grace. I found many difficulties a inside of me, but thanks of your prayers I find some devotees and ever more people to can helpme to keep the chanting. some times I feel loneliness, fear and affliction.

but when I remember you I have a hope.

you  always very diligent, on the Prabhupada's mission

your example give the ligth on the edge, when people believe that money is the most valuable thing. Thanks a lot your constant effort is a treasure to me. I'm not a good servant, by I'm trying to learn, and undestand what is the value of my life?

for live in Krishna's consciousness. and and be useful to your mission.

your crew member AniruddhaKrsna Das

             HpS - AGTSP paoho. I think many people including me love you very much. Why? Because you give so much love to everyone, to the whole world. Krsna is watching you. He has a very special plan for you. [Maybe a bit mischievious, but just for you].

Thank you. We see you very soon.

VP 2014 Offering

10 years, 2 months ago by chas d lind in Special Category A

Dear Mahraja Hanumat Presaka Swami,

Pamho, AGtSP!

Another year’s gone by and I notice it’s that time again, your Vyasa Puja! Been keeping busy this time of year with Sadhana reports and such, good for my mind, needs some reflection after a long 2013.

So I humbly submit the following offering, hoping to offer something worthy of your mercicful services.

Thank you for your Valuable time,

ccd

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Please accept my humble obeisance’s,  All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Vyasa Puja 2014

His Grace Hanumat Presaka Swami

yasya prasadad bhagavat-prasado

yasyaprasadan na gatih kuto 'pi

dhyayan stuvams tasya yasas tri-sandhyam

vande guroh Sri-Caranaravindam

 

By the mercy of the spiritual master one receives the benediction of Krsna. Without the grace of the spiritual master, one cannot make any advancement. Therefore, I should always remember and praise the spiritual master. At least three times a day I should offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of my spiritual master.

 Crossing the lines of temporary into the permanent has been a conflict to many conditioned Souls. Very few even pursue it, even more so it is a rarity to find person at this point and as in the Bhagavad-Gita 7.3: Out of many thousands among men, one may endeavor for perfection, and of those who have achieved perfection, hardly one knows Me in truth.

Now what to speak of those who teach and live these lessons of self-perfection? There is just not enough association of persons of such magnitude and gravity… regardless we must pursue their association this is our only hope. This is prescribed in the Gitopanishad 4.34: Just try to learn the truth by approaching a spiritual master. Inquire from him submissively and render service unto him. The self-realized souls can impart knowledge unto you because they have seen the truth.

The impeccable knowledge of Sadhu-sanga, subliminally and directly, revealed in our lineage enhances our Spiritual progress and is so vital, Lord Caitanya re-enforces this: CC Madhya Lila 22.83: “The root cause of devotional service to Lord Krsna is association with advanced devotees. Even when one’s dormant love for Krsna awakens, association with devotees is still most essential”

Such is the potency of Vaisnava relationships and Gurudev you are a prime example of this. On this day I need to offer so much gratitude for your association, mercy and tolerance and have no means to even come close to what you deserve, though it is ordained in SB 10.80.41: This indeed is the duty of all true disciples: to repay the debt to their Spiritual master by offering him, with pure hearts, their wealth and even their very lives.

It is a hopeless situation; the burden of appreciation crushes my false-ego and furthers my debt even more. As in Srila Prabhupada’s purport SB 4.22.47:  A joker's activities simply arouse laughter, and a person who tries to repay the Spiritual master or teacher of the transcendental message of Krsna becomes a laughingstock just like a joker because it is not possible to repay such a debt.

 So you have a joker, fool, and a clown as a disciple. The impervious wisdom that surrounds me is out of my grasp, if you could be so kind as to kick this dull-skull of mine and crack it open will I begin to truly appreciate Buddhi-Yoga then I may become worthy.

           HpS - ASA - We will beg Srila Prabhupada for an extra-big thick skull cracker.

As his divine grace Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur instructs in his song ‘Gurudev’: I offer you all respects, for thus I may have the energy to know you correctly. Then, by chanting the holy name in great ecstasy, all my offenses will cease.  

Praying to sincerely chant the glories of the Holy Name, glorifying Lord Caitanya’s mission and to serve you in full capacity, then I may begin to end my offenses and have a spark of actual Bhakti in this existence.

Maharaja Hanumat Presaka Swami Ki Jaya !    <img alt="heart" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/heart.png" title="heart" width="23" />  His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Ki Jaya !!

All Glories to Your Service,

your neophyte servant in training,

Caitanya Caritamrta dasanudasa

HpS - ASA - Thank you so much. AGTSP.  Thank you so much. Your's and Subhra's constant 99.99%  sane association has been a life saving element in our life for many years. Seems we will see you in Houston before we see you in California again!!!!! We are worshiping a very, very, very generous master. Death is just the start of something even greater!

My Humble Offering and anual report

10 years, 2 months ago by Dandava das in Special Category A

Dear Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

First time I hope you're fine. Yesterday in the afternoon we connect with your Vyasapuja in Argentina via Webex meeting from Madrid. There were around 20 devotees or more to celebrate your Vyasapuja in Madrid. All was organized by Bhadra Bhadra Vardhana  Das and Sananda Devi Dasi: bhajans, offerings, theater play with around 8 actors and then all devotees had Prasadam together in loving coexistence. Some devotees came from Nueva Vrajamandala to enjoy Madrid's hospitality. Some devotees remembered some anecdotes with you, etc ....

A great group of devotees are working very hard to get a loving environment with appropriate relationships between devotees and no devotees, visitors, friends  and make strong conditions to preach from Madrid's temple to all the World. May be somebody say that's sentimentality, but I think so Srila Prabhupada wanted that and that He'll get it. Our reason to be is Srila Prabhupada's mission, and Srila Prabhupada's mission is preaching, preaching and more and more preaching. May be our preach was sleeping but now it's time to wake up.

I want to thank you let me to take shelter in your lotus feet on May 5th 2013. I have striven a lot but I have sometimes fallen, I woke up after each fall and I never lost faith in Krishna's conscience process, in Srila Prabhupada and in my brothers in faith, though some of them has caused me suffering. I want to thank them for that too. Thank you Gurudeva for Japa Joe, don't leave us.

Next year I would like don't fall, be more lovely with all living entities and especially with devotees. From here I want to ask them forgive all my offenses and sins, which have been a lot. I promise you I'll work to be better than last year.

I don't want to take you more time. Please, take mercy on me and give me your blessing. Please, let me keep under your Lotus Feet.

Your humble servant, Dandava Das.

             HpS - AGTSP!  Thank you for your letter. Thank you for your efforts to help the mission of Srila Prabhupada. I think you are doing O.K. You just need to continue as you are. You will learn how to deal with devotees better and better. They will forgive our mistakes because they know that we are still spiritual children.

We wish that we could be in Madrid right now with all of you. Such a nice temple! It will expand!!!
