HpS - ASA - AGTSP!!! Paoho. We have always been getting at least 16-rounds/day done with sometimes catch up. Frm 1984 we started 25/day. In May 2012 we had this INTENSE symposium in India and were so exhausted that our mouth was bleeding for 2-3 months after. We always got 16-rounds done but could not keep 25, so we fell behind like 5-rounds/day for maybe 75-days = 375-rounds or something. We tried doing 32/day but that didn't work. So now we chant 26/day and catch up 1-day. Now we are 172-behind. Hansadutta said that old rounds are like old Prasadam.
We have to organize a separate Symposium for Latin America like in September or so, no?
Devotees who speak English like you, Pancha, Maha-jana can attend this one and inject it into the Spanish World. Here comes the wave!!!!
All glories to Srila Prabhupada
Beloved Gurumaharaja, please receive our obeisances.
We need to express to you that in Mexico we are very interested in closely following the project of Education, which is one of our priorities. Mother Asta Sakhi dd, Lalita Gopi dd, Saranagati dd, dd Satyabhama, and your servant Gopi Radha dd, among other devotees of México, they do not have at the moment, the time or economic possibilities to travel to Houston. However, we have considered the option to support by ASA KIds Mexico, mother Anuradha DD, so she can asist to the seminar. She is Mahatma prabhu disciple. She is very responsible, and constant in the service she plays in Asa Kids since late last year. We have the idea, that part of the cost of her plane ticket be cover by Asa Kids and another part she would cover it. On the other hand, we want to ask you if there would be any possibility of having some facility or discount in the Seminar payment. We hope not to be too bold by such request. Also we would have to consider the ticket cost, since these dates the prices rise.
What do you think in this matter Gurudeva? Would be a good idea the option we are considering? Anyhow, we want to let you know, we deeply regret not being able to be attend to the Seminar. But though we are not physically present, our thoughts and small efforts are focused on supporting you in this important Education project. Thank you very much for your great effort Gurudeva. We wish you much success in your preaching.
Her servants ASA KIDS Mexico.
HpS - ASA - AGTSP paoho. . . . What has happened to Krsna-Balarama Prabhu?? He was going to participate also, no? Hmmm, 1) Govinda Dasi is in Houston and can attend the Symposium personally. Try to contact her, 2) Better than going by airplane at this time if it is big economic stress is to register with Mother Subhra Devi Dasi and then attend by good internet connection. It will be in English but should be clear and it will also all be recorded. You could actually put it in a room with a projection and good audio amplification.
For all this contact Mother Subhra Devi Dasi at the phone number on Registration link on the Web-page:
www.jayarama.us/nas.htm
Thank you so much for this effort. Honestly, Prabhupada said that this was super service for his Sannyasis! Govinda is staying in the same building as Subhra. They are good friends.

paoho
Maybe best Ekadasi in a long time. They are very difficult for us because of the heat and usually hard work. Our Buddy, body, starts to really suffer, so today, we just took Prasad as it required:
Now Brother Ass feels well. Day not finished. We almost always do the mail like 5.30PM.
Today is hot but many clouds. Forecast is for thunderstorms and maybe tornados.
We cut the grass today. It is Tuesday, Mars Day, so we figure is good day for cutting. It went very well but then Nephew Lawn Mower died. He is expansion of Brother Ass. Maybe he will recover after some rest. Is HARD but healthy work. Our arms and body ache afterwards. Like going to a gymnasium.
Then listened to Hawaii class while we ironed our clothes and did a PPTX for Friday, SB 2.7.13. Is Karma-yoga for us and we can do too much because our body and mind like it. Then we feel little disgusted because it was not really pure service. So, we try to keep off the Karma-yoga platform and on the Dhyana-yoga platform.
Now we did letters and next a quick bath and off to NGD for evening Sanga.
Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!!!!

Hare Krsna dear Gurudeva!!
All glories to Srila Prabhupada and all glories to you, who open my eyes and protect me from ignorance.
Please accept my humble obeisances!
About the last letter, I couldn't avoid read about arrhythmias and I see that most arrhythmias can be harmless, but some can be serious.
I'm sorry but I can't avoid worry about this. Are you doing some treatment for that?
HpS - ASA -- Few years ago we had chance to have a general health review by Mother Guru-bhakti Dasi, who is doctor in Houston. We had a heart monitor hung around our neck for one day and she said that there were a few missed beats etc. but they were all from the top of the heart. The ones from the bottom of the heart are dangerous. I think she said that girls have ones from the top of the heart all the time when they 'fall in love'.
One morning they were really frequent, had to lie down. Went to NGD house later in the morning for regular association. Let him take our pulse. He said, "Hmm lots of arythymia. Try a little more salt at lunch". Did that and it went away completely.
In general seems to be stress etc. We have to live our age. Of course, we could have a cardiac arrest at any time. So could you. Be ready!
Did you see a doctor?? Because sometimes it can be inoffensive if the person is healthy... but sometimes not. It's depends of the type of arrhythmia.
Well, thanks for ask about me. I'm ok, but getting a rhythm between daily eating and sleeping and service is impossible for me hahaha.
My weeks never finish, always I have to do something and I feel good. I would feel better if I dont have to waste time sleeping and breathing when I chant japa... And I really think this!
Today I had the last class of ND and I realize that all the service that I do, maybe is not really service to Krsna, because while I do, my conscience Sometimes are not focused in Krsna. So it's karma yoga, not Bhakti yoga and all the time I generate more reactions, no? It's makes me think more about this. I am very pasional and this generate me stress because I don't take rest and while I do service I am thinking about all the other services that I have to do later. Maybe I need to meditate more in Krsna while I do service and I have to find some time to think in my behavior and assimilate theory that I'm studying with my practice.
HpS - ASA --- Aaacha! Very nice. NOD is like concentrated BG, SB, CC course. Rupa Goswami extracts the fast path. Yes, in the beginning we are doing Karma-misra-bhakti, no? It is Bhakti-yoga becasue we have some little taste of where we want to go, but really we are 'enjoying the service'. Krsna recommeds then in the Gita: You can sacrifice the results for me but you are setting the example of one who cannot yet sacrifice the mode of working. You have to do Ksatriya work for me. A lady has to do lady-work for Krsna, but as we begin to understand the logic of Bhakti-yoga, like this, then we come to Jnana-misra-bhakti-yoga. Even though it is not your Karma you can engage in the service by better inteligence. Then.... xxx-misra-bhakti-yoga.
What is "xxx"?
Following NOI 4!! Thank you so much! I will apply it. One of all anarthas that I have is that it's very difficult to see good qualities of the others. In fact, I have the tendency to do the opposite because it is that I do with myself. And devotees have great qualities!. I would love to can see just good qualities of devotees all the time.
How can I stay exigent with myself but not with the devotees?
HpS - See what service a devotee is doing and try to help them.
Yes, Online Vaisnava School is Param-padam Das :D
Trying to serve and follow your steps,
Bhktn Belen.

HpS - Image is too small and too dark to see on this "Letters to Answer" platform. Will try to see it after we post this Answer. Please give our respects to Maha-hari Das.

Please accept our humble obeisanse to Gruji's padmacharan for highlighting our darkness that "By serving the feet of the Spiritual master, one is enabled to develop transendental ecstasy in the service of the Personality of Godhead who is the unchangeable enemy of the Madhu demon and whose service vanquishes one's material distresses."
The association of a bonafide spiritual master like the sage Maitreya can be of absolute in achieving transcendental attachment for the direct service of the Lord". Bhag. 3.7.19
In these above quotations, the value of serving his Spiritual master is strongly recommended, but my question is that for those devotees who could not get the facility of serving his spiritual master regularly or frequently, what will be the alternative method of serving their Spiritual master? Will it be equal to worshiping in the picture, or meditation in front of the picture, or offering something in the picture or to follow the instructions of their
Spiritual master?
Please advise us, the duties, so as to enable us to elevate in the spiritual and transcendantal world. The answer of the previous questions also may kindly answer, I will communicate Guruji's amritavani to all neofied bhaktas.
Yours fallen servant

HpS - ASA - AGTSP!!! H. H. BSDamodara Swami, Ki Jai!
Srila Prabhupada comments that he was able to serve and associate with Srila Bhakti-siddhanta by physical presence only a few times, but by Vani-seva, serving His instructions he was one of the most intimate servants.
Yes, serving picture of Guru in regular Bhakti rituals and by serving his mission.
Of course, Srila Prabhupada is Guru for everyone in ISKCON and as you serve his mission you serve me and everyone else. It is like putting water on the roots of the tree. As you Diksa guru in ISKCON your service to me that I offer to Srila Prabhupada is chanting 16-enthusiastic rounds daily and following four principles strictly.
Of course, we cannot be enthusiastic in chanting our rounds unless we follow the instructions in Nectar of Instruction. Is it translated into Manipuri language?
Please, please, please try to get on to the Blog! Letters to the Editor that will make our communication 10 times better!
