HpS - Jaya! Srila Prabhupada was on the back of the Rathyatra cart at the start of the parade in San Francisco and made a small speech with live Television cameras.

He said, "So, all you people of San Franciso, come once a year and join this festival and join the devotees in chanting in emotional love of God and your entire city will become Vaikuntha, the Kingdom of God!"

Dear Gurumaharaja please accept my obeisances. All glories to sri sri Goura Nitai I felt very sad in the last days, i think is Maya. It seems to me that Krishna is not present in my new activity, when i study architectur i am not able to see him there and understand that He is everywhere, something that i do experience when i chant my rounds or while doing pujari service .Is it only a manifestation of atachment?

Sometimes i feell that this is not my duty(to study),in the BG 3,8 Krishna says that just acomplish your duty..to do it is better than dont work.if vedic principles have as a goal to help us how to understand this eternal relation my question is how can i do if all the time i depend on the univetsity,travels etc?

I want to understand my relation with Krishna, our sacrifice in this age is to chant the Holy names, but even though i feel my 16 rounds are not sincere, i chant my 16 rounds and i am following the principles.

I am reading the CC(MADHYA LILA) and San Agustin confessions too. I have start to cook for Goura Nitai on mondays, that makes me happy. Please forgive my confusion and ignorance. I think maybe i should go to Brasil to the bramacarini ashram.

 Please tell me whats the best for me?

Your endebted servant Ter Kadamba dd.

                       HpS - ASA - AGTSP Desculpa a demurra responder. Posible es arregla de Krsna como el puede trabajar con Vd sin nuestra estupidez. Pienso tiene que leer Upadesamrta 8.
O.K?  Y despues escribir sus realizaciones, comprehensiones!!!!

Hare Krsna Guru-Maharaja!

Please accept my humble obeisances!

AGTSP! Agt Guru and Gauranga!

Vivan Radha and Krsna!!!

I am Bhakta Pablo of the Parikrama, from Spain.

I hope your health is very good, not having any pain and that Your devotional life is splendid.

I heard yesterday the introduction of Caitanya caritamrta, recorded in Startmeeting, and now the second. Thank you so much for them, especially being in Spanish. They are nectar.

I'm always waiting for these classes, as with Joe Japa.

Singing my rounds and recovering. I chant 27 rounds per day. The four principles.

Personally I have to admit that I'm not doing many austerities these days, I'm pretty relaxed, maybe too much. I take note of the situation...ummm, I'm a little rascal, sorry. I will change.

I look for " bibhats " “ bibhatsam “on " mixtures rasas " in Nod and found the Cap 49 and 50. I read , and is very interesting . Reminds me preface Upadesamrta . I think I'll never understand these things.

Did you comment on something specifically ????

I personally feel that is very complex . And simple at the same time when one read the examples. I guess only the sincerity of heart can overcome all this complexity .

Many times I feel like I was going through an energetic Universe, where massive total power external to me, protecting the energetic Nucleo ,  have taken human physical , personal, to unite the complexities of infinite power , and the movements of their onmipresentes and onmipotentes influences, representing them in the grace of a play . And precise movements, at the right time , acts as a very complex key, to open the way to the Core , the Home of Krsna.

Thank you so much for everything, wholeheartedly Guru- Maharaja, Hanumatpresaka Swami.

When I sing rounds and You appears in my poor meditation fills me with joy. Nrisimhadeva too. I think I can only be around Goura - Nitai thank to you, all , Prabhupada of course!!

At his feet Gurudeva !

Your silly servant, Bhakta Paul

        HpS - ASA - Jaya. AGTSP paoho....  Why not start a Parikrama in Spain??? Lokanatha Swami did it all over the world. He started it in Berkeley. I was with it from the start. You could go regulularly to all the Holy Places in Spain and do Kirtan with devotees in route. Hmmmm, if Krsna wants He will give inspiration.

We stopped the Spanish readings because we didn't have a Spanish CC! We need a full-set of Spanish CC.

Hare Krsna Respected Guru Maharaj,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    We have seen, how krsna helps you in Vrndavana and all places. i have seen, how you hide your love for Kishori & Kishor.

    You are like at Samadi always, you always see Krsna's existence, everywhere. What need to be done to be on that conciousness forever.

    Thank you, Guru Dev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

         HpS - ASA --- AGTSP. We have so much room for improvement. Sometimes we have to relax our efforts a little, no and see what is our actual nature. Then push with that knowledge of what our real attraction is. Arjuna was attracted to being a heroic prince and protecting helpless ladies and his brother. By Krsna's arrangement, to show us, he could not give it up. So he showed us how to understand our attachments and then use them to go beyond them.

paoho

We just answered seven nice letters.

We got a little behind because of the Atlanta Festival. It was a dog killer from hell, but being asses, pigs and monkeys rather than dogs we survived. The Rathaytra was six hours in the hot sun with people whipping us to go faster, but we survived. The mantra yoga booth was full of hyenas laughing at our attempts so figure out what to do there. This is our second festival. Houston was the first. We figured our what to say. we had our banners up. NGD helped us. Abhiseka Das helped us.

We distributed three Yoga kits and 20-Upadesamrtas.

We met a LOT of people and worked on Plans for New Mayapura in Ecuador and BI preaching in Atlanta. O.K. NIrjala ekadasi.

Dear Gurumaharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I wish to inquire on how to see a certain life situation.

              HpS - ASA - AGTSP. We hope we can help!

Generally our vaishnava notion is that if someone hurts us, blasphemes us, we tolerate and do not retaliate. A devotee was telling how another devotee cheated him out of 100k Euro. That is certainly a big amount. He was of the opinion that it was his money, and he wanted it back, so he is in a courtcase.

Now what about the attitude of tolerating and not retaliating?

           HpS - ASA -- Well, a Madhyama adhikari avoids the demons, demoniac, in his Godbrothers. Don't get hurt, don't get cheated. Other than that we must think that it is Krsna's money for my service to Him, so we can do things like take the case for decision by a judge. Depends on the attitude in detail, no?

His argument was that the whole gita is about the same thing. Arjuna was cheated out of his property, and Krishna wanted him to fight for it. I am not sure how to deal with this. My idea was that the kurus were already dead due to their karma, and Arjuna just had to execute the 'death sentence.' If he is suffering his karma, why bother to get the money back? But to just say, "Hey, tough luck, i was probably a cheater in my previous life," that's kind of a hard pill to swallow.

What is your idea on this matter please? Thank you for your response.
I hope you're body is cooperating well, and may you think of Krishna always.

Kind regards,
Raghava Pandita dasa.

    HpS - ASA --- Like we said, it depends on the details. Dharma in the first canto, how M. P. recieved the age of Kali gives that argument that it was just reaction of my bad Karma. That could be O.K. Yuddhistira tried that approach for like 45-years or something and only fought when there was no other choice. 

For details you could have like six devotees talk about the details and make a decision. Look at Parasara's dharma sastr in our archives at: www.bhati.org.

Thank you!
