All golry to Srila Prabhupada and all glory to Srila Prabhupada

Please accept my humbles obeisances

Dear Gurudeva: 

Chanting every day is my principal jab, but I have no every time a good please for do it some time we need find some hide please and another I do with good devotees in them houses. about  strictly follow the four principles I just can try to follow because some time I've eaten many product to I don't how this is maked, for example went I visit a Ranch, in Mante, I discovered that the piloncillo is making wit some animal tallow,and so many sugar is making with some animal becouse the sugarcane is cut and processed with some small animals that they live on the country.

and some times when I stay on the street many people smoking and send them smoke to me. and so i try to move from these please some time I cant do strictly, because some time sombady is talk to me, and on these way i try to follow strictly but everyday I'm discovering more and more details. I pray to every trouble can be exceeded, just by your mercy.

HpS - ASA -  AGTSP! paoho. Yes, we should try to avoid these details, but that we don't break principles in gross fashion, that is good.

I do not how to keep a efficient process, there are many service and me is so unqualified, I just try to study with devotees about Rupa siksa, Prabhupada biography, pada padma, and some aryas songs. I pray that I can do all Rigth.

your simple crew member Aniruddha Krsna Das

         HpS - ASA -- So nice to hear from you. What about the KRSNA book and Caitanya caritamrta reading in general???

Mother Yasoda could give her milk to Krsna or save his milk on the stove, but not both. Both services were good. Prabhupada says that a devotee is always confronted with these choices in spiritual life, which good service, but if he is sincere then Krsna from within will dictate what to do.

Happy Lord Rama Appearance Day!

AGT Srila Prabhupada!

AGT Sita Rama and Hanuman!

AGT Radha-Krsna!

Pamho Maharaj.

Hare Krsna!

We just came from Mexico Mandir to celebrate the appearance of Lord Rama! 

It’s Bhakta Marco from Mexico. I hope this letter finds you in good health.

I am observing 16/4 most of the days, asking for your mercy not to fall.

UPDATE

I have moved to DF. I’m living outside the temple but I’m trying to get there around 5:30 so I can chant rounds with the devotees and offer my respects to Srila Prabhupada and Sri Sri Radha Madana Gopal. I am doing Sankirtan 4-5 days a week and studying Bhakti-Sastri online with Param Padam Prabhu. I am learning a lot!

I am also looking forward to teach yoga-asanas at yoga centers and preach a little in the process (chant 1 round, distribute books, etc.)

As you already know your disciple Satya-Bhama DD and I have asked the local authorities and grihasthas in the community in how we can associate. I beg for your blessings and counseling.

A propos of Prabhupada Seva Rural Project I feel uneasy. I had expectations that didn’t meet and now I am not sure whether participate or not.

Maharaj, how can I be a candidate for your mercy? I know I should have a local authority in ISKCON, but who? What is expected of me and the Siksa-Guru relationship?

Please excuse my offenses.

Your humble aspirant,

Bhakta Marco 

 HpS - ASA --- Jaya!  More news!   For Guru standard read from "http://jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt".

In Kali-yuga the only really happy place is were Sankirtan of the Holy Names is going on the mood of ecstatic love!!!

AGTSP pamho  Dear Maharaja  i hope this letter find you ok . I'm bhaktina Lali, i spoke to you on your visit to Bs As to take shelter from you ,( i already did the disciples curse and i have Maha Hari Das recommendation) 4 principles OK  16 daily rounds (all do sometimes its difficult to get it done)and with a fix service on the temple reception and coops My family is being very supportive , they weren't interested before ; but now my mom its reading Prabhupadas books . That is helping me to go forward and want to top myself every day . sorry that it took me so long to write you , the next letter will be soon . Bna Lali 

             HpS - AGTSP "Disciples course". "Disciples curse" means Maldicion de Discipulos. Of course, maybe you didn't like the course and considered it a curse. I have little remembering of you. Can you please write a bio-graphy of yourself and send it? IN general if there is a letter of recommendation and you are following the standard as described in our www.jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt then certainly you can be initiated. That means you start your formal secondary school studies!!!

Graduation means you play with Krsna.

((paoho))
Here we are 8.39PM in NGD living room Abiseka, Manjari and Mataji are in other rooms. We feel little sick, but that is not surprising considering it is the material world. Seven out of the eleven BIG nails that hold the rain gutter on our roof have come loose from the wind. We found an old ladder in the garage, a hammer and climbed up and pounded two of them back in.

The second rose bush is about 90% dead, so after giving it two weeks of chance to come back we trimmed of the 90% and left the two per cent. With hard work and digging holes for our News Box we are getting good exercise. Then we only do so many hours a day of computer work for the eyes.

We also talked with Abhirama Das in Lima for 1/2-hour. It was so nice to talk with him after about two months. All the university programs are going ahead, but we are both getting a deeper foundation estabilished for our lives.

We did Bhakti vaibahva work with Sri Hari Das.

We are making an appointment to look at a free space in the Global Mall that an Indian friend is offering for a regular Sunday program here.

We are always doing TPP-Composition Book writing.

Then we

came to

NGD Ashrama

about 6PM

and did

some cor e spond dences. Especially we have been having a series of letter exchanges with Prahlada-nrsmha Das from the USA, Bhakta Phillip, after many months of no communication. He is continuing with his determination to distribute pre-1977 BBT books but our relation as Diksa guru is not working at all, so we are wishing him well and certainly accepting that we have not been perfect in the relationship and hoping to be a Vartmana-pradarsika Guru if we can and also hope to get his mercy if possible.

Ultimately Radharani is more powerful, clever, than Durga, and so the tendency is for us to return to Krsna, and as much as we can help things will speed up, and that's good for Krsna!

Letters caught up to 5-days ago. Now we start to work on the Annual Reports.

O.K. Hare Krsna!

See you in Cyber space, Heart Space.

Tomorrow Kapi Dhvaja!

Bhakta Marco de Monterrey

11 years, 2 months ago by marco in Personal Sadhana Reports

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada! 

Todas las Glorias a Usted Maharaj!

Mi nombre es Marco y he estado viviendo en el templo de Monterrey (México) desde Mayo del 2013. Canto 16 rondas diariamente y sigo los 4 principios. No he tenido la misericordia de conocerlo en persona pero he escuchado mucho de Usted y Sus pasatiempos me inspiran a servir al movimiento. Gadadhar Gosai y los demás devotos me han ayudado enormemente pero siento que es momento de un cambio. 

Es por eso que he tomado la decisión de servir en la finca Prabhupada Seva con Maha Sankarshan y hacer unos días de Sankirtan cuando me encuentre en la ciudad. 

Espero pueda complacerlo de esta forma y tener Su misericordia cuando esté en México.

Su humilde aspirante,

Bhakta Marco.

                     HpS - Jaya!   Muy bien, y ya que pasa!???

Todas Las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!
