reciba mis mas humildes y respetuosas reverencias guru maharaj le escribo para desearle un feliz dia en su vyasa puja y agradeserle infinitamente por su gracias redamanas en mi vida desde que le conoci en una foto y tube la gracia de escucharle en una clase me atrajo enormeente y me he rendido a sus pies de loto , aun esta presente este ultima visita a mexico, cuando lo vi me portre a sus pies de loto y se me quedo viendo con una furza y un escrutinio que nunca me habia pasado cosa igual en la vida, estube con usted y me dio pena, miedo cruzar palabra alguna con usted solo le escuchaba y grababa en mi celular su conferencia , pero ese dia pude subir con usted al lugar donde estaba comiendo y me puse mas nervioso pero pense dentro de mi si no hablo hoy no se cuando pueda hacerlo , sin envargo no pude cruzar ninguna palabra solo lo admire y me causaba un gran confortamiento saber que estaba hay, el dia siguiente nos levantamos temprano para ir a aeropuerto a despedirlo hay hubo un poco de tiempo para hacer una preguntas antes de que saliera el avion , asi que me arme de valor y pregunte ¿Comò podia acercarme a un maestro espiritual? en realidad yo queria preguntar como podia ser su disipulo, usted me pregunto mi nombre, le dije me llamo miguel, usted me contesto es facil, miguel solo tiene que seguir los pasos que srla prabhupada dijo, este proceso es gradual uno, empieza leyendo un poco y despues se interesa mas por el movimiento y despues lo 4 principios y el maestro espiritual esta hay como tu papas qye te ha llebado asta lo que rs hoy , si que no es dificil llegar al guru hay muchos en los que puedes conocer y llegar a ellos.

Dear Maharaja Hanumat Presaka Swami,

please accept my obeisances, All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

This letter is in response to our Sadhana report and am happy to reply that everything is going perfectly well under my command. So much wealth do I have and I will gain more, my enemies will be killed and I am the enjoyer surrounded by aristocratic friends and relatives… now the rest of the story.

Sadhana 2013

Claims to 16 rounds are there but how many with care? About 20 years on the japa reins, still fighting with fingers & brains though they may flow, the mind rarely lets go. Moments we miss, till our hearts fill with bliss yet we continue to resist. This is where I’m at for now and glad that I’ve kept my vows, times are testing as ever, give up? Never… delay? Maybe too often, but my resilience refuses to soften.

Continuing with high-tech preaching though at times I may be over-reaching, the glowing screens and fanatic gleans, half the time the truth isn’t seen. So, honing my dull intellect I return to the keyboard and reflect… what it is to sincerely express the wisdom of the ages from our lineage of Sages.

Thinking, feeling, willing thus all things become fulfilling, pray tell we get direction and clear reflections not some sentimental recollections with lusty connections.  As the Mind folds, Intelligence holds, so let us grip our beads with complete greed and nurture our rounds with speed, this is the integrity I seek. Once done, we may blissfully do japa and surround ourselves with the Maha-Mantra. This is my goal if I may be so bold, from one who is quickly growing old.

Thus my desire is invoked, yet I still hesitate, obvious attachments must be revoked to obliterate. What about the subtle grips still lurking in the mind… easy enough, direct them to the Divine, now we have a start but let’s fan the spark! Keep in the Fire when we aspire for Vaisnava association, this is our means of true negotiation.

Who am I kidding, the senses want their bidding, a simple breeze will blow me away with ease. Will face the truth and acknowledge I’m uncouth, not fit for human life, this I know, it cuts like a knife for without Guru, Sastra and Sri Bhagavan I cannot go on.

My Sadhana is flickering, though gaining momentum, no more mental bickering, I know my intention and that is complete Spiritual attention… soon I pray, let me hold Bhakti close to my Heart and never stray.

Thank you for your valuable time, hope to continue this path and share more Truth so Sub-lime.

Your servant in training,

caitanya caritamrta dasanudas.

AGTSP. Hey this is a pretty good poem. Next one should be no longer than 140-words about the mystical land of Vrndavan.

Thank you very much!!

   Todas Las Glorias a Sri Sri Goura Nitay!!!

Todas Las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!

Todas Las Glorias sean a Usted!!!

   Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias, muchas gracias por Su carta de respuesta al reporte anual de discípulos, mi esposo Hari Murari das le envía sus reverencias y saludos; estamos viajando a Argentina el 2 de Enero en la mañana y así poder estar presentes en Su Vyasa Puja. Muchas Gracias por Su misericordia.

   Su sirvienta,

   Dhanistha devi dasi, Santiago, Chile.

                HpS ! - Graaacias!!!  Es un GRAN placer ver ambos de Vds aqui en BsAs.  Para nosotros es como very unas flores hemosas o los rayos del sol en primavera. Gracias a Vds. para su asociacion santo.

Hare Krsna dear Hanumatpresaka Swami,

Please accept my respectful obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
All glories to You on your auspicious appearance day!

I would like to thank you all of your encourages and inspires what i got from You this year.
You are my well-wisher and friend who always helps me if i need good advice.
You really "walk your talk" not just instruct the devotees but You are a very strict follower of Srila Prabhupada. You get up and chant your rounds early, attend Mangala arati everyday and decrease your sleeping and eating day by day.

             HpS - ASA - AGTSP paoho. The regular Japa workshop from 1.30-3.30AM we were able to keep strictly,  but when we were alone in Tennessee we were late for Mangala arati some days. Also, we try not to eat too much but we still have to work more on that.
 

I feel myself very fortunate to get in touch with you.

     HpS - We feel fortunate when we hear from you and your good family and friends!
 

By your mercy i can understand so many things clearer than before. Your letters are life savers always. You said sometimes we have to leave our centre for an other one to appreciate it. It's right.
We moved to England and now we see the so many good things what we got from our yatra.
You asked me to stay in Hungary and preach during lunchtime. I work on it but now we have better opportunities here in England, although i'm sure there comes a time when we will move back to Hungary.
I hope once not just You will help me but i also can be on your assistance.
I don't have experience in the university programs but i would be happy to arrange a program here in Manchester or in Hungary in the future. Please let me know if i can help You somehow or other.

Thank you very much for your association.

Your servant,
Sri Radhe devi dasi

              HpS - Jaya!  Thank you sooo much! Just be Krsna conscious. Just keep looking for the preaching opportunities that Krsna sends. Keep perspective how to do the most efficient Sankirtan by frequently calling, "HARE KRSNA / HARE RAMA"!

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

    Guru Dev, i will come to meet you in Vrandavan on 25 Feb 2014, have booked my tickets.

    You will reach by 5:30 PM in Vraja, On 25 Feb 2014. Where you would stay at Radha-kunda or MVT? I will plan accodingly.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - AGTSP - Paoho.   We will be staying in MVT with Nitai-gaurasundara Das. We come to the Temple for the Morning Program. We usually stand next to Tulasi in the back Gaura-nitai side or even father back next to the picture of Girivaradhari.
