Letters to the editor

AGTSP PAMHO

Dear Maharaja,  
Once again  i delayed my response, I apologize for that . I hope this letter finds you in a  good health, I have sore throat, can barely speak. 
So you can remember me, I am lali, I'm 22 and I speak with you on your  last visit to BS as. Narayana introduced us and then with  Gabriela  I expressed  my desire to be your disciple.  I am studying  pastry and working in a  cell phone company.  I am currently studying  Upadesamrta, slowly try to do the courses of the temple. 

My fixed services in the temple are in reception and Im  the organizer of the cooperative.  I chant 16 rounds but sometimes it costs me to do it . 4 Principles ok.  Your disciples are very good to me, they known that I am aspiring to be your disciple for long time, and help me every day to keep going. Sarad Bihari and Rati Manjari  are good friends of mine, and also behave as good older sisters (actually Sarad is doing the translation, my English is not very good). I hope one day I can improve my service and become your  disciple.

Thanks for being my inspiration. Bhaktina Lali

HpS - ASA ---- AGTSP.  paoho. Thank you for this letter. It has taken us 1 month and 3 weeks to answer. How are you now? Did you die from throat cancer and go to heaven???
How is the Upadesamrta study? Do you find it a nice summary from beginning to end of all of our philosophy, wisdom?
 

Pamho, tlgasp, tlgassrmv!

Queria escribirle pidiendo me disculpe, casi no entro a internet, ni salgo de casa, unicamente para colectar y vuelvo rapido, aprovecho ahorapara contarle que  por su misericordia  siempre estoy haciendo mangalartik completo ( guru astaka, nrshimhadeva, ofensas siksastaka, ND, tulasi) 21 rondas, 3 gayatris, a veces gaura artik , ahora mas seguido.

             ASA - Wow! Super chica del Patagonia!

Sigo cantando el nrshimha kavacha por Usted , franco, gopal y por mi misma.

 El internet en casa no es bueno por eso no me conecto a japa joe aunque quisera. Le pido perdon tambien por estar apegada al cuerpo material, el burro y querer cuidarlo todavia, se que krsnita nos cuida siempre, y se quye se me pasara esto  cuando avanze mas y mas por Su misericordia.

En mayo baile en belgrano, una ciudad a dos horas de cordoba en dos eventos, proximamente le enviare los videos. Esatamos organizandonos con franco para mas adelante poder predicar que nos gustaria mucho. veo tantas buenas personas en la calle  que me gustaria que conozcan la conciencia d e krsna.Por ahora solo reparto inviaciones al programa de madre sushila.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP!!!  Paoho. Very nice, 16-rounds per day + !

    BW just made an address label for you for Tpp Cb/9. Should ship on Wednesday next. Did you get the last one? An updated description of the projects is at: 

http://www.jayarama.us/archives/tpp-cb.htm

It is working well. Cb/10 is planned as scanned and electronic distribution. Did you get Cb/8? What is your critical review of it? How should we make it better?

Prabhupada has said so much. We just need to run behind him like dogs in the dust of his lotus feet collecting, getting dirty, from the clouds of dust he raises in his Sankirtan.

4.44PM Saturday - We go for a walk to the Good Will Store. They are a Big USA Second Hand chain. Look for big cloth on which to paint an elefant for our Oct/4th festival drama. Also chant some extra rounds!

 Hare Krishna Maharaja! AGTSP. 

hope you re okey :)

HpS - ASA -  AGTSP. We hope that we can go from O.K. to Ecstatic!!

Last Sunday we had a ceremony by the temple's vicepresident for those who are taking shelter of an spiritual master, so I was called to attend and received kind of a Certificate that i have completed the level of Sri guru carana ashraya! and i got the blessings of Radha-Gopinatha to take shelter... So I just wanted to let you know.

Then i have a few questions : - like Im always thinking the diference between morality, ethic and integrity and how to connect each other. I supposse they must be quite or little different, and I would like to know what Krishna and the acaryas think about that.

HpS - AGTSP!!!! I think that these are English words that are used differently by different Western philosophers et al. In Sanskrit, Gaudiya, Vedic, ISKCON culture there is "Upa-dharma" or things that take us closer to Dharma. For example, we follow the four principles. These are ethics, morality. In themselves they are not spiritual, but by Krsna's arrangement they create a good environment for spiritual life, chanting 16-rounds.
Is O.K? Upadharma.

- In today's class, canto7. 3.35, Ramai Maharaja was mentioning about material desires in return to our service. So I'm trying to be always sincere when praying, that means I also tell God my desires with the purpose of not hiding what it cannot be hidden,. But I'm thinking what would happen if I ask Krishna, knowing He's the source of the demigods, for something material. Because for example that verse in the bhagavatam( i think), says that even if one has material desires, desires of liberation, or has no desires, one should approach the Lord. Therefore, in this sense, I wonder how He would reply if for instance I ask for some ability or wealth, or whatever, (I'm just guessing). It reminds me to the explanation of prabhupada in NOI about christian people but I'll more info. and on the other hand I'm not gonna ask that, but this question was always in my mind, so if you can clarify it please Maharaja.
HpS - I think you have nice comprehension. Kardama and Devahuti had a lot of sense gratification, but it was all within the range of Bhagavata Dharma, so they learned from it that material sense gratification won't make you happy. So, yes, sometimes ask Krsna to help us with our material desires, to purify them, to give us a higher taste while we do them.
Are you attached to breathing air?
Well, you won't have it when you die. So we have a lot of material attachements we have surpass.

Trying to be your servant, camilo.

HpS - AGTSP!!!  We see some more letters from you in the past we will try to get to them! Recovering form this North American tour!

Todas las Glorias  Srila Prabhupada!

Todas las Glorias a SRI SRI GAURA NITAY!

Hare Krsna Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias!

Hare krsna Gurudeva, volvemos denuevo a la batalla, perdón por no haberle escrito antes, nuestro condicionamiento es demasiado grande, pedimos disculpas sinceras por nuestras ofensas y esperamos poder mejorar con el tiempo. De todas formas seguimos en contacto con los devotos, cantando los santos nombres y haciendo nuestro servicio devocional fijo en el templo. Comenzamos la universidad también esta semana estamos bastante estusiasmadas y con la mentalidad de hacer las cosas mejor esta vez, tenemos un buen horario que nos permite cantar las rondas por la mañana sin estar demasiado cansada, de todas formas esperamos recuperar en algún momento el standar de despertanos a mangala arati pero poco a poco :P <img alt="cheeky" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/tongue_smile.png" title="cheeky" width="23" />. El no ser serios en nuestra vida espiritual es nuestro mayor problema y recae en todo, como ya le comente anteriormente gracias a su misericordia aún conservamos el néctar de poder hacer servicio devocional para Gaura Nitay, aveces olvidamos lo importante que es y no tenemos la actitud correcta, pero siempre Gaura Nitay de una u otra forma nos hace volver a la conciencia correcta, aveces a la fuerza jajajaja. El capitulo (NOD 20) que se leyó en Japa Joe el martes me hizo reflexionar mucho en este tema del servicio devocional, aveces podemos experimentar pequeñas muuuuuuyyyyy pequeñas rasgos de la melosidad transcendetal gracias a la misericordia del Guru y de las Deidades entiendo, porque si no no tendria sentido que personas tan condicionadas como nosotros pueda recibir tanta misericordia, que es muchisimos mas de lo que nos merecemos, esto hace que aunmente nuestra fe y nos apegemos cada día mas al refugio de los pies de loto de sus Señorias Gaura Nitay, Podría interpretarse ese sentimiento como sentimentalismo y realmente obtenemos la melosidad del servicio cuando nos ocupamos en el sin motivaciones e inenterrupidamente (SB 1.2.6)? Entendemos que tambien tiene que ver con la asociacion con el maestro espiritual o devoto puro del Señor, y aunque no seamos los discipulos idoneos la misericordia del Guru es infinita. 

Muchisimas gracias Gurudeva por toda la misericorda que nos da, siempre meditamos en Usted y en el Señor Nrsimhadeva como nuestro verdadero fin de satisfacción, esperamos poder complacerlo algún día.

Mis respetuosas reverencias, eternamente endeudada,

Su caida aspirante

HpS - ASA - TLGASP!    Estuvimos respondiendo a su carta per despues de 10 minutos el robot perdir todo.       Pero esta bien. Es super oir de Vd. Y es un hecho que podemos sentir un poco bhava por la misericordia de gaura nitai. Se llama, "bhava-abhasa", y si no somos ofensoradores poco a poco puede convertir a bhava actual.

Bhava, prema, son bueno, no para nuestra gratificacion pero para la gratificacion de Radha y Krsna. Como Srila Prabhuapada puede ocuparnos in servicio mas intimo.

Y es un hecho, los caidas en Sadhanapueden servir como los pasos de exito si utilizamos. Poco a poco aprendiendo com vivir un vida espiritualmente y fisicamente bueno, estable!
