Querido Guru Maharaja , si usted lo desea

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Todas las glorias a Usted Guru Maharaja.

Disculpe que lo moleste , solo es para agradecerle por darme su misericordia y sus bendiciones . Por las cuales este tonto que le escribe puede seguir cantando un poco mas de 16 rondas por dia ,los 4 principios ,estoy siguiendo Ekadasi con ayuno completo, sigo fijo en mi servicio en el templo y leyendo los libros de Srila Prabhupada ya termine el Caitanya Caritamrita completo el Nityananda Caritamrita y comence a leer nuevamente El Srimad Bhagavatam. Mi sankirtana es todavia flojo , en realidad el flojo soy yo.

Deseando que su salud sea muy buena , quien siempre espera servirlo y desea sus Bendiciones, Su Caido aspirante a sirviente Nanda raja dasa .

Dear Gurudeva!

Please accept my obeisances
I hope you are well ud

I'm Devarsi from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

           HpS - ASA  -  Jaya!!!!!!!    AGTSP.....    So, nice to hear from you!!!

I was absent from the blog, several months ago.
The last time I talked to was in chile units last year.
I'm on the night shift manager at the restaurant of the temple"Naturaleza Divina".
It is going well, many people take prasadam daily and is interested in Krishna consciousnessand invite them to the partySunday. But go out very late and is difficult for me
  I know it's not a good time to have a more orderly practice my sadhana, because I cannot get up early for sleeping so late.
Just talk about this difficulty and allow me to work in the morning again and I'll be able to organize myself better about it. Krishna always makes the arrangements.
We are composing and producing music for Krishna with some devotees. The idea is to produce an album of bhajans with some devotees of the congregation. We need your blessings.

          ASA - It's interesting.  The first restaurant was in Philedelphia and the manager said that it was closing at like 9PM and then it took an hour for the devotees to wash everything and so they did not get to bed before 10.30PM and so they could not come to Mangala arati, but Prabhupada said that, "No, they must come to Mangala arati. Then they can take a nap later in the day!"  He also said there should be a book display and gave a recipe for roasted grains that would taste and act like coffee.

As we realize that Krishna is pleased with us?

        HpS - Don't understand?

In our service sometimes there are difficulties,we must take it as mercy or as a proof of God?

        HpS - Sometimes it is mercy and we take it as difficulty by mistake. Other times it is test of our sincerity and other times it is the demons trying to stop us....
 

Thanks for reading my letter Guru Maharaja and for giving their time
Please forgive my offenses
sorry for my bad bad english

I am at your eternal service
Devarsi Narada das

Haribol!!!!

              HpS - Jaya!    And Hari-nama Sankirtana also, no??

    A G T S P !   [[[paoho]]]     We are just running, brachiating, to the airport.  Australia tour finished.  Be back in a moment.       Sydney, Gold Coast, New Govardhana, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Perth!!!          Monash University, ISKCON Youth Preaching Centers,  Rama-navami...  Gaura-purnima  ...  Light of the Bhagavata...  Thank you so much, Dhruva, Dhanesvari, Madhu-manjari, Raktaka Das et al   et al.

hare krsna Maharaj por favor acepte mis caidas reverencias agtsp.

ultima carta escricta 27 weeks 5 days ago.

bueno no se ni por donde empezar asi creo que es igual no? 

Maharaj le pido que por favor no publique esta carta por que es personal no quiero que nadie conosca mi vida personal gracias.

ASA - ...........................  (contenido privado)

hare krsna.

atentamente bhakta jorge.

ASA - TlgaSP!     Tom Brown, Monocito, aqui.  Honestamente su carta no es algo tan particular que no podemos hablar aqui entre amigos.  Yo, Vd, muchos estamos en la misma esfuerza para desarrolla.  Ayuda mucho intercambio de experiencias.

Una cosa.   "El primer deber en todos los asuntos espirituales es controlar la mente y los sentidos. A menos que uno controle su mente y sus sentidos, no podrá avanzar nada en la vida espiritual, Todo aquel que se encuentra en este mundo material, está absorto en las modalidades de la pasión y de la ignorancia. Uno debe ascender al plano de la bondad, sattva-guṇa, siguiendo las instrucciones de Rūpa Gosvāmī, y entonces le será revelado todo lo relativo a cómo avanzar más."

Upadesamrta, Prefacio.     Esta bien, no?       En la comenza, mucho es purificar la mente PARA Krsna.  Es servicion, amor, pero en la comenza Karma-misra-bhakti yoga.

hare krsna maharaj, apmho,agtsp.
hope you are all well. we are sorry for posting querries to you and not giving you any sankirtan news  as compared other blog participants>
we goto householder sanga, and here again we find our selves different from others in respect to content and qunatity of reading we have done.. it is all due to your grace.

we dont find any one else except you,who can answer our question our even understand it, esp when they are so deep in psychology. we just read chap 9 of canto 2, citing lord version. and verse 1 itself we got little inquistive and hence distiurbed (as householder with no job now, we should contemplate on making money, not understanding intricay of philosophy).

what made us inquisitve was- statement that we are dreaming.--- then we startde thinking then why there are rules of vaidhi bhakti tobe followed in dream. how can we come to reality just by using our free will in dream...
maharaj its a very existential dirven question. u may not make it public as it may harm some people.

regarding manipur. indian school of mgmt says our mgmt style will depend on modes we are in. so your grace relegated the Manipur university project to super soul, may be that was right according to Mode of good ness and Brahmana standards.
With a passionate standards likes us where we think we are the doer, we think it should be pushed to some degree, may be your calls from outside India can not connect to devotees there. So if you us to call on your behalf, u can give us the numbers and name of person to be contacted. may be u can forward us the email. that is all up to your discretion, as your are near to supersoul.
hope one day we can pass on what you would teach us in different courses and conersations we do other people,and hope that could be our sankirtan.
waiting to hope get orders from you when you arrive in India again.
illicit sex in control, the mind is realizing we would suffer a lot if do it.  (mate with burning iron woman in yamaloka. mind does not like it). chanting 16 rounds.. hope we can be formal aspirants in sept 2013.

          HpS - Jaya!   AGTSP   We have been thinking about you all for last two days.  Now is Saturday, Rama-navami.  We are in Perth.  We will be here tonight then Sunday, Monday and then Tuesday night in the airplane.  Zooooom!          We arrive Kolkatta at 00.45 in the morning and I told the CCU temple devotees to wait until later to get us. We can chant Japa in the nice airport.  

What about the Claro Modem?     Can you activate it for the week?    We will put in our Indian cell phone chip as soon as we get to CCU.     We are looking forward to talk with you!!

In the dream we show Krsna that we are learning how to deal with real situations.  Then as we get better the dream becomes lighter and lighter and then we are fully in the real show! 

We can talk about Manipur also.   We will put some news in the DTC about our e-mail and Japa Joe etc.

Our respects to all the family, near and far, big and small!!!!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to Sri Krishna Caitanya Sankirtan movement!.

Thank you Maharaja for your answer. This is David, from Argetina, but I think there was a confusion, I´ve never had the grace to talk to you by skype good sir. Thank you so so much to allow me to do a question to you, I need some advise...
I do have a baby Tulasi plant, and you know, Buenos Aires Weather is not the best for Tulasi so I am doing a big big effort to  make to stay with me ... I am feeling so worried about it , I do not want to build this offence (If she leaves Her body) as I have promised to take care of Her.
Also, some devotees told me that is better to have deities at home first, Tulasi is difficult in the beginnig. I do not have deities yet, but I am preparing a room for Goura Nitay and waiting for some Laksmi to build the fourniture and Deities...

I just want to know, what do you think about it Maharaja? Have I done things wrong?. I Do love Tulasi and love Her as my daugther (I have adaughter called Alma, she is 9 months old) but maybe I am not ready yet .... Let me add a picture of myself and my Daughter last Sunday at Buenos Aires mandire´s Kirtan with HH Gunagrahi Dasa! All glories to Your lotus feet Maharaja. All glories to Gouranga! Nityananda!.


Thanks for this possibility, thanks for your kind mood and nice welcome to you as Siksa Guru, thanks for taking this responsibility and allow me to open my heart to you. I will do anything you tell me, your advice will be my dharma Maharaja. Hare Krishna!
 

HpS - ASA -  Jaya!   Thank you your letter.     It is O.K. to try to keep Tulasi.

1. She likes association - Keep Her with you, not in an expensive green house all alone.

2. She likes warmth.  Touch Her soil. If it's cold, She's not happy.  Put an electric hot-pad or something on Her base.

3. She needs sunlight.

4.  She is flexible about water.  Can be robust amount everyfew days but every day some is good.

                Good Luck!
