Hare Krishna Maharaja: ¿Cómo se encuentra de su salud?

               ASA - Como Vd. <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" /> <img alt="indecision" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/whatchutalkingabout_smile.png" title="indecision" width="23" />

Espero que en buenas condiciones. Le cuento sobre mi reporte, sigo cantando 16 rondas diarias, siguiendo cuatro principios, con mi servicio fijo de servir el prasadam y la limpieza de la cocina los días Viernes, ahora hace un par de semanas comencé a entrar al pujari como asistente, aprovechando que mi hermana mayor es la que adora esos días, extrañaba mucho ese servicio; y sigo trabajando en el restorán del templo, también estoy leyendo La luz del Bhagavata y aprobé el curso de discípulos. Muchas gracias por su respuesta de la carta anterior, estoy trabajando en ello. Sin querer quitarle mas de su valioso tiempo y siempre con intención de no molestarle se despide su eterna sirvienta Bhaktin Valentina Cortes.

    HpS - ASA - Jaya!!! Quien es su hermana mayor???? Como esta el Templo?

Hare krishna maharaj!

Hare Krishna  Maharaja ! Please accept  my humble obeisances. All the glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Maharaj, Thank you very much for answering my presentation letter. 

As you asked me, my husbands  name is Fernando Calviño, he is from Argentina , we have been married or almost 2 years ! 

I do not  have any counselling here Maharaj, should I ?   I usually make all my questions to a very kind devotee, Maha sundari Mataji who is my teacher in Bhakti sastri and also a very nice friend with whom and her husband we travelled to Mayapur last year.  

    HpS - ASA -- AGTSP! Sounds fine. Get more advisors little by little. "Victory comes from good advice and good advice comes from many advisors", Canakhya Pandit.

She has been very  compasionate with  me and has been an inspiration and guide and Iam deeply in gratitude with her. 

One of my questions Maharaj is , some years ago before meeting the devotes I was travelling trough India to different ashrams studying yoga, I travelled to Rishikesh to visit some ashrams and there I bought a Gopal deity , not knowing very much about Sri krishna , but i bought it and when i came back I made an altar and ofered him incence and flowers, but without any knowledge , but gradually starting to develope a relationship with the deity , then i started meeting the devotes, reading and Studying the Bagavad gita, learning more about Krishna, learning how to offer the food, and learning that the first deities one has to worship are Gaura and Nitai, so last year when i travelled to Mayapur i wanted to get the Gaura and nitai  deities but at the end i didnt because I felt i was not ready so i came back without them and with the idea of  taking out of the altar Gopal deity, but I could not take him down of the altar , i just could not, so I still worship him with more love and knowledge than before , but I regret so much not having  brought with me Gaura and nitai deities . For me the practice of  worshiping the deities is very important  to conect with  Krishna and develope my love through taking care of them! I really find this practice vey powerfull. I dont fell like stop doing it ! 

So my question is Maharaj, : is   it ok to worship Gopal deity or should i wait to have with me Gaura and Nitai deities and worship them?

    ASA - It is very nice. Look at SB 7.5.23 in the section on Arcanam. You should DEFINITELY have a picture of Srila Prabhupada and Pancha-tattva on the altar so it is clear that we are approaching Gopal in Vraja through them. We are certainly helping them help Mother Yasoda to serve Gopal. If you really tried to serve Gopal directly you would have a heart attack and mental break down on the spot. This baby is DEMANDING!!!

Maharaj I actually also wanted to ask with all respect if it would be posible for  you to be my siksha Guru, if I could get instruction from you for how to evolve trough Krishna counciousnes properly. I know that for having initiation it takes some time , i want to take initiation but i think first i have to do more service ? But meanwhile is it posible maharaj to ask yo to give me instruction in this divine path which I have the fortune to be walking in?  I feel Ready to  follow and commit with instructions to keep growing and Maharaj. 

Thank you very much for the posibility of comunicating with you ! My sincere best wishes 

your servant

Alexa

ASA - HpS - Have your read our www.jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt file? It gives explantion of Siksa guru etc. Is is clear????   Thank you!!!!

Haribol Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaja,
Please let me offer my obeisances to your lotus feet,

    HpS - ASA -- AGTSP!  We ain't got lotus feet. We are still trying perfection to reach. Maybe got potatoe flower feet heading to apple blossom feet! <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" />
 

all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I have not sent a letter in a long time. Today is the first in many months I did my 16 rounds. It feels like a long time, Maharaja, I vowed to you last year that I would follow 16-4 until July 4th of this year and I admit that I have failed in my efforts. Maybe it was because of all the things happening in my family or perhaps I did not desire to fulfill that vow to you enough. However I would humbly apoligize for my failure and ask if I may renew my vow of 16-4 again until July 4th of next year in order to please you.

     HpS - ASA ---  <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" /> Let's get more practical here in the fore-front. Four principles and four rounds a day until July 31st. O.K? If you do more report it!!

I was very happy to attend Ratha-Yatra here in Boise with the temple, I feel I have not been getting as much association as I should with the devotees. The changes of turning 18, getting a first job, attending college, applying for financial aid and learning to drive have been alot on this plate.

          ASA - A lot for two plates!

I am still residing with my grandparents as of now. I hope I will one day be able to move closer to downtown temple and associate daily with the devotees.

I wanted to say that my first job, I thought was somewhat vegeterian but I've discovered (and sadly had to sell) some fish and egg related products. I do not know if you would approve.. But my family pressures me to get any kind of work experience and income possible and it seemed like the best I could scrape up without working in a diner.

                  HpS - Well, at least its not meat, no! Of course, keep looking for completely clean work. There IS Karma for selling eggs!!

I'm hoping the experience will let me move to something better later on.

I've decided to start again at devotional life but in a (hopefully) different attitude towards it. Rather than following false "guru's" and "disciples" of H.D.G. AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada; and though I have commited countless horrible mistakes and sins in my lifetime that I will never forgive myself; knowing that real love is selfless and unconditional; I have seen from the mercy of Mayapur-Dhama how life is like there and would like to dedicate myself towards serving the devotees and learning to practice medicine as a physician. I hope every day I can come closer to this desire and less from all of my negative/materialistic habits and demeanors. To be the servant of the servants, servants, servants... feet.

I apoligize for any offenses I've made to you physically or mentally and I hope this will meet you in good health. Thank you for all your guidance maharaja. If you will accept my vow of renewal I will do my best to remember my 16-4 every day.

your fallen servant,

Reilly G

Hare Krishna!!! Hare Rama!!!

10 years, 12 months ago by Devarsinaradadas in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna!!

Todas las Glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada!

Todas las Glorias sean para el movimiento de Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu!!

Querido Gurudeva!!!

PAMHO!!

Espero que Ud. se encuentre de buena salud!

Aquí le escribo nuevamente, para agradecerle su respuesta a mi carta, las bendiciones y por el hermoso nombre que Ud. le dio a las deidades Gaura Nitai ‘’Nitai Caitanya Candra ki jaya’’ Ya fueron instaladas y ya las estoy adorando!

Bueno quería contarle que sigo con mis servicios en el templo en la parte de comunicaciones y en la organización de los bhajans y kirtan.

Estoy  realizando el curso de Discípulos de ISKCON online con Param padam prabhu. Y cuando termine este curso posiblemente comienze el Bhakti Sastri.

Maya esta avanzando y yo peleo día a día . Intento, Intento y espero cantar mahamantra algún día  de forma realmente sincera.

Como puedo servir como instrumento de Krsna y actuar correctamente sin la influencia del ego falso?

En mi corazón siento lejanamente la respuesta! Pero necesito sus palabras y las de Srila Prabhupada para inspirarme y seguir …seguir creciendo en mi vida espiritual!

Muchas Gracias por leer mi carta

Por favor Disculpe mis ofensas!!

 Bhagavad-gītā Tal como es 18.73

Arjuna dijo: Mi querido Krishna, oh infalible, mi ilusión se ha ido. He recuperado mi memoria por Tu misericordia. Ahora estoy firme y libre de dudas y estoy dispuesto a actuar de acuerdo a tus instrucciones.

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!!!!
