Request to consider a vistit to Richmond, VA

11 years, 3 months ago by msrinu in Personal Sadhana Reports, Calendar Development

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupad and Gurudev.

It's been a while that I wrote anything on the blog and few changes have occured in my professional and personal life.  My personal life is going well with "Nitai Chaitanya Chadra" 's krupa. I'm regularly attending Bhakti Yoga club in VCU (weekly once) and discussing on different topics with students (from BG and Nector of Instructions). So far so good, at least 6 to 10 students became regular and we are doing Japa (small one 27 beeds) and Kirtan, a 15 to 20 minutes class and prasadam.

And also we started (past 8 weeks) a "conference call" (weekly once an hour) with devotees from different placess (join on the phone) and have a clsss primarly on BG, but we also discuss on Nector of Instruction and during festival times "Krishna Katha".

With all the above (including our regular Bhakti Vriksh) my reading became regular and I started reading BG and SB and my chanting became more focused (became my source of energy, especially when I'm puzzled).

Maharaj, Is there a posibility to consider a trip to Richmond, VA in your schedule? we are all (including our ISKCON of Richmond) sincerly requesting and we all feel blessed if you consider.

Please pardon my ignorance Maharaj, have question. In BG 9.4 Krishna says, "everything is in me, but I'm not not in them" and in Bg15.15 "I'm in everyone's heart". How do we understand these two statements Maharaj.

Always your humble servant

Subala Sakha Das

HpS - AGTSP paoho. Such nice spread of Bhagavata culture all over the world. Then greed for selfish pleasures decreases and the Earth becomes happy. 15.15 means the Paramatma, no? So Krsna is not exactly present as Gopal but as the Paramatma. It is like the person controling the front door over a security camera, but we can also consider what happens in the heart of a devotee. Like the Prince and Princess going into the prison.

We are just settling down after four months of travel. It was almost lethal, so we have to see how our body recovers. you can see the current ideas in the calendar link in the Kapi Dhvaja. We were thinking of going to Washington D. C.  How far is that from Richmond???

Thank yoiu for your association and all the work. We hope the kids are also seeing life from a high perspective!

All Glories to Sri Sri Radha Krsna

All Glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitai

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Dear and Kind Guru Maharaja, firts of all allow me to put our stupid head beneath your most humble feet, we offer dandavats to you and Srila Prabhupada, over and over.  we also ask for the most merciful smack with a cane in the head.

     ASA - AGTSP paoho. Hmmm? What will come next! 

It has long been since our last conversation. Im so sorry for not writing sooner. We've been in the north of chile, kidnap by our family. we try to scape to braja, but our sentimentalism is bigger than our common sense. 

Family is fine, Gopal, Vrinda, Madhumati, Dayamani, Hari Bhakta all trying to survive. our health is not the best, many nerve problems, but getting better. its amazing how much our torerance to frustration has increase.

our  2 younger babies are completly insane, i think they think they are monkeys, the wild kind.  so we try to civilize them, and on that path we may  have become a lot like a gereral of the german army. 

We have tickets to Go back to Vrindavana the first days of may. if Srimati Radharani let us go, we had tickets before and we could not go!

plan is to stay there for a month and move to Rishikesh, we all would like to take a teacher training course in Yoga, Hatha yoga. and then maybe darmashala or Kerela for Tibetan/Ayurveda school and maybe a holy vaisnava safari in family.  

Our family (mom) is buying for us a land with a restaurant and the possibility of a Hotel in San pedro de Atacama, Chile.  very near where our family live in chile, so we can make a living and pay for college for kids (Gopal is 16!!!)  and after 10 years retreat to the holly Dham with a pension.    So we manage to convince family  to let us go for a year to India. and after that come back and make a nice self sustainable eco/turism farm.  its really high in the mountains and theres not much people, few hundred families but so many tourists. no contamination, no buildings, native people.  hope is a good idea.

We read your letters and ask all the time to Srimati Radharani to protect you, we dream about our spiritual master very  often, maybe most of those times out of guilt. but very nice dreams, so many answers.

right now we are writting with one hand and fighting and blocking babies with the other one. 

Hope you are well, so much preach, so much seva, so much inspiration Guru Maharaja. Thank you for being our fuel and source of inspiration.

At your feet,

Cakori Radha Devi dasi

                 HpS - Hmmm.  Very good news, but the Japa!!!  Otherwise you are all going to take birth as Indra and Saci devi in your next life!

Agt SP!

Agt Guru Y Gauranga!

Agt Radha Y Krsna!

Agt Gurudeva!

Pamho Maharaja.....o..

Hare Krsna Maharaja, soy B.Pablo del Parikrama, de España.

Sorry to write so quickly, but I would like to tell all my external situation exactly, because many times I am too introspective.

!6 rondas, 4 principios, Mangala arati ( no 2 days, I was extremely bodily tired ), Gaura arati and so happy, sooo sooo happy, but internally. Externally, I am in a heavy situation, but if but if I stand a little more, it'll all be gone, I explain ...

The government has spent months trying to not pay me my share (lol), can not, but they bother me delaying payments (6 months now), by these and other things, I could not pay a fine who got put Virginia (soon I hope to pay it), but I have to go to prison 60 days, is little little money, but the law is the law...haw haw haw and I don´t want my family money more, . This don´t disturbe me anything, really, except that not rot to go to India to Nrshimha to see Radha Krishna Dham and Sadhus....also is that I will to lose the money of the tickets, but really really that is any important to me. Actually I want go in Damodara more...will see what happen ( sure thing I will do. So I have to think and so I'm always thinking. You have taught me well maharaja. )

Virginia is fully possessed by his situation. In a very critical moment of his life, he decided to put his trust in a number of holes, materialists people, and it will cost much personal suffering that decision...

The only reason I do not go elsewhere is Varuna. It is a great person, very sensitive and it deserves the best. I can not leave him among the "pack of hyenas". Now he have 6 to 7 years, within 4 or 5 years, will take about 10 years, then I will continue my path and Varuna decide on its way.

I have many economic problems mainly because I deliberately decided to work with the family, evil doing. Are completely misguided. My father thinks I'm possessed and every time I start to pray Hare Krishna he show like he were praying with the rosary, but he is looking the tv...jajaja so pity. Is totally possessed for his gross gross desires.

My young brother is a nice person but is with the moon at 0 %, then his mind is like the wind and is totally controled for my father, like a child. Now whenever is laughing like mad, because he thinks I can control his mind ... jajaja. Like me elder brother, he live in Boston, had important job he is boss in chip design in a large company of fools, who has taught him that the world can only advance by slaves ... lol totally crazy because of his position and wealth. I laugh at them, all crazy.

A lot of people, many people have much envy me because I'm very independent and I have very very straight. I always say what I think, and if your  company is unbearable I continued " as a ñu "

Like my town, less that 500 persons, very close people, they only only eat fresh, uuuugggg....if you don´t eat meat, drink, and have pig-sex are crazy, any speak to me becouse I am crazy and I do black magic...my Japa, and chant " Hare Krsna "...black magic...jajaja. Are crazy.

If all goes well, within 1 or 2 months everything started very well resolved. I've spent years enduring this, I will not leave now, even if I get into prison, lol I laugh. Consciously or unconsciously all want to I stay away from my son.

When I finish my "obligation", I'll go to not ever back  if Krsna permits. Only Nama Sankirtana, single, Hare Krsna Hare Rama, Hare Krsna Hare Rama .... o ..

This years en medio I wish doing Sankirtan, preaching and distributing Maha-prasadam from my Nice Deaties.

Sorry for the letter soo long, butI have years without tell You details, are sooo horrible, You are not for that, I think, You give me Krsna, Realitation, and I have one eternal deb with You, I do not expect the stupid fools understand it, either my family or other.

Yours, at Your feet, Your servant B. Pablo.

Hare Krsna!

                   HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. Thank you for Enlglish translation. Helps a lot. Seems you are going ahead very, very well with a big battle. It took the Pandavas years to solve their problems but Krsna was using them.

Japa principles, GOOD morning program and get some good counselors, eg. Jayanta, Jara mara, Dandva, so many there. Yadu Swami. Then it will all have been benefit.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja.

Acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias para Srila Prabhupada!

Agradecida por Su última visita en Santiago. Al esucharlo, pude entender un poco más qué significa realmente ser discípulo. Honestamente, yo estoy muy lejos de ser considerada un discípulo Suyo, pero quisiera convertirme en una discípula.

-16 rondas diarias. Mucho mejor que el año 2013. Completando rondas al día siguiente mucho menos. De un 70% a un 40%. Ajustando para llegar a un 0% de deuda.

-Gayatri mantra. Mucho mejor que le año 2013. Esforzando por cantar en el horario.

-4 principios. Relaciones sexuales dentro del matrimonio reguladas. Desde hace 1 año y 3 meses apróx. (No sólo para procrear hijos concientes de Krsna, pero sin mucha necesidad de satisfacer ese impulso).

    ASA - Oink! These are such silly things, no? So ridiculous for the soul. Like someone addicted to heroin. The sure cure is to the austerity of worshiping your Deities, nice clothes, nice ornaments, nice perfumes, then animal friction seems more and more tasteless. It is actually unnatural, but never stop chanting Hare Krsna.

-Servicio en el templo. Atención a las deidades, 4 veces al mes. Organizando obra para Gaura Purnima.

   HpS - ASA -- Ooop! Touching the Deities? Arati? This will only agitate your illicit desire more! Don't touch the Deities for one year after breaking principles.

-Esporádica lectura de Krsna Book y Srimad Bhagavatam. Ajustando para mejorar.

- No estoy siguiendo ceremonia de Mangal-arati <img alt="sad" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/sad_smile.png" title="sad" width="23" />.

-Tulasi crece en casa. Por primera vez alcanza los 10cm de alto <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />. Muy feliz.

-La adoración para Radha Gopinathaji aún espera por nosostros <img alt="sad" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/sad_smile.png" title="sad" width="23" />. Falta algo de ropa para ellos.

-Contactando a Prabhu Laksman Agraja para conocer el estudio de BVB de éste año.

Preguntas:

¿Cómo me puedo convertir en una discípula de primera clase?

¿Ud. está satisfecho con mi proceso hasta ahora?

¿Cómo puedo hacer para que mi hijo interiorice bien su conciencia de Krsna, o la acepte en su vida de manera natural?

Esperando se encuentre siempre bien de salud.

Priya Sakhi DD

HpS - ASA --- Keep with the Japa but start going to sleep early and getting up early. Mangala arati is the best Deity worship. Have nice picture of Krsna and Dance enthusiastically. Like Olympic stars. Very soon will follow all four principles.

All Glories to Sri Sri Gauranga Nitiananda
All Glories to HDG Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to you Guru Maharaja.

Please accept my humble obeisances to yours and Srila Prabhupada’s holy lotus feet.

   HpS - ASA -- We got loco's feet.

Hare Krsna.
16 rounds ok
4 pples strictly ok.
Morning Program: No. Firm compromise to fix soon.
Sorry for my delay to write, many feelings like i told you in the meeting in the temple. Frustration still here, but things get better and better. I went  to BalaramaPuri (ParamPadam and Ananta camping project)  for holidays. Here I meet some old devotees who help me a lot to follow Your instruction about prioritize.  They inspired me and told me many pastimes they've past in CK, and how they feel about that. Its make me be more deep and not so superficial in certain issues. I meditate a lot about your visit, about feelings with Krsna, with Holy names… and my stone heart… working on it (many dust accumulated). Guru Maharaja I came from my travel, more reflexive about the situations thats I have to pass to be more deep. Please bless me to never forget feel, never forget be consciousness of the lord.
I want to apologize about the faults in my service, during your visit. 


Thanks GuruMaharaja for enlighten my way to follow the process.
Your disciple who aspire to be your servant
Rati Manjari Devi Dasi

               HpS - ASA --- AGTSP. Old letter. Nice. Thank you, but what's happening now? You are a revoluntionairy. You can't be happy with a dull life.
