From Madrid learning to love

Hare Krsna dear Gurudeva:

Paoho,AGTSP!, AGT YOU!!

I hope your eyes and your health are better. we´ll be fast.

             ASA - Zoom!    AGTSP.  Our eyes are O.K. now!  Our feet still swelled up and need to X-Ray one tooth unless I meet Super-man. Same for you all, right?

Things are getting better in Madrid, we are more of a team now.

-There is a cultural centre interesed in the LOB Simposium, it is a simple place...Are there any chances for you to travel to Spain next year and celebrate it?

             ASA - Right now, I think it would be doubtful??? But you can do it!! We would participate by mental telepathy. 

-The drama is written as you ask one time during Japa Joe, some devotees want to peform it, I am a bit scared to share it...

             ASA - People laughed at Dostoyevskii when he started writing dramas. That's what it takes. Self conviction and ability to hear from your critics. Ooooof!  Big qualities.

-We will be studying BV with Yadunandana Swami one weekend a month.

-Sanga-sankirtan it is stablished for every first weekend of the month. We also want to push the sunday Harinama.

-The community development department was also accepted in the last Istaghosti, so we will be working on that.

-We wish to help the translation team, from south America.

-And Radha Damodara just arrived from India a few days ago, to let us live in theirs and Gaura Nitay´s and JBS´s home.

By your mercy we are fully engaged, feeling blessed, sometimes overwhealmed, trying our best there is sooo much dirt to clean up within our hearts!!!

Please forgive us for our offenses, for taking so long without writting you, and then having so many news to tell alltogether.

Aspiring to serve you.

Bhadra VD & Sananda DD

             ASA - Mr. Bhadra vardhana Das. How is your work? Can you make it useful for Krsna????

HARI BOLO!

HpS - ASA - Jaya Santa Tersa de la Conciencia de Krsna!   translate.google.com You should get local Siksa-gurus. You should develop a nice collection of devotees, men, women, who see you on a daily basis, frequently, and can then give you advice on seeing the details of your character.

Other than that what about reading Caitanya-caritamrta? We will be in BsAs on New Year's day! How is Maha-hari Das?

Reporte desde Brazil

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj, todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada y a Sri Guru y Gouranga.

Estoy  muy contenta de poder escribirle.Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.Espero usted este muy bien de salud , listo para los viajes .

Querido Gurudev Le envio mi reporte .. Mi japa , 4 principios y mangala aratik estan muy bien . El seminário ya termino ; fue muy  completo, uma experiência muy marcante em mi vida o en mis vidas .Estoy muy agradecida por La misericórdia de Sri Guru y de Srimate Radharani..La asociacion com Maharaj Dhanvantari y otros lideres  fue muy maravillosa y tambein  la experiencia que vivimos com las devotas .

Gurudev,  yo Le pregunte a Maharaj como me veia para iniciarme y me dijo que El me veia lista,y que podria mandarle uma carta a usted describiendo mi estado. No se que opina Usted? Yo canto mis rondas hace 1 anio y médio y mis princípios estan bien fijos.

HpS - ASA - USE translate.google.com .   We didn't get Maharaja's letters!!! If you have been following nicely for one year and you are honestly convinced that you can do this for your whole life under normal circumstances as an austerity for your purification so that you can return to your normal position in Goloka, then O.K. take first initiation! !   Back Home!      Back to Godhead!

Outro tema es que ya le envie la carta con la invitacion cerca Del 10 de sept. Espero llegue antes de que usted se vaya , ya que El correo es  bien lento...

ASA - Yes, we got it. It was very beautiful and we showed it to many people! That was yesterday. Congratulations! Austerity for Krsna! Austerity for your Father and Mother!

Ahora voy a volver a Argentina el 15 de octubre, pienso volver a Córdoba , organizarme con La congregacion ( córdoba capital y tras la sierra); continuar los estúdios personalmente como sadhana y tambein en cursos con los devotos;levantarme temprano a cantar mi japa y adorar las deidades ; estudiar en La facultad (arquitectura )

   HpS - Ahhh!  This could be nice, but look for good professors. Your training may make you and architect or lead you to some related field. One year after first initiation you may have a clear idea about Grhastha ashrama.

; voy a pasar um tiempo com mi madre y hermano viviendo ya que voy a estar em un cuarto separado de la casa donde estare sola  y va a ser bueno para ellos ayudarlos . Mi madre esta muy a fin a La filosofia vaisnava y esta muy agradecida   .. igual sera como Krishna  desee.Tambien pretendo  predicar dentro de lo que sepa , con sankirtan y vere como puedo hacer com los devotos ; córdoba es uma ciudad universitaria y hay tambien  mucho movimiento, diversos temas, tampoco hay templo o algun centro cultural (en La capital).. entonces pienso se puede hacer bastante por encuanto este ahi.

HpS - And I think there is good devotee association there. Param-padam does not live too far away, no?

Entonces espero poder servir lo cual es un desafio constante.Vamos a ver que pasa, pero mi parte va a estar con seguridad.

Tambien le cuento que aprove el examen internacional com 85, era fácil  , solo que en esos momentos decisivos me agarra inseguridad.. pero esto me esta pasando ahora , no se porque... Um gran obstáculo  pero tiene solucion,em este momento para mi todo tiene mucho peso. Pero estoy mejorando Gurudev .Ahora cuando llegue voy a poder asistir a japa Joe ,una gran misericórdia, y la culminacion de todos los seminarios..  este fue el comienzo.     ..   Aqui le envio una foto del Guru puja que hice el dia de Janmastami, no pude colocar otra de las deidades...

 Muchas gracias por SUS instrucciones ,su ejemplo, por acompañarnos , por conectarnos a Krishna y por darle todo a Krishna.Su aspirante Yemila.

HpS - So, so, so, so, so nice to hear from you Srta. Yemila. I hope we see you when we are in Argentina. You could take initiation then.

Hare Krsna Guru Dev - Your India Schedule !!

11 years, 9 months ago by Gopal C Biswas in Other

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

    Thank you so much Guru Dev.

    This letter is answer to your previous letter.

    we are fine....doing good at work place. we work 9 hours at office.
    breaking 9 hours = 7 hours pure office work + 1 hours discussion on NOI with Senior
   devotees + 1 hour discussion on BG with a devotee (very senior manager in IBM), He
   even asks me for a walk to discuss on spiritual topic. Office is very far from room/home,
   it takes 3 hours time, for go to office and come back room.

    we don't take break for lunch or snakes [snacks]. we put complete 'tilak' in office, complete head
    shave....can not live without 'tilak'..ha..ha.
    
    At office, Whenever we get time, we discuss on spiritual topic and BG with colleague
   and all.

    For last few months, we are continuously thinking that time is going very fast and we
    are just loosing the spiritual growth. we are just doing Kindergarten (16 rounds + 4
    regulative principles + hearing + reading + associating). We are not satisfied with these
    only. So what to do? Actually, what else. we are looking for, we ask to my self? We just
    want to have a test [taste] of deep spiritual subtleness so, what to do for more.

    So we started searching in your lecture, writ. what you say about spiritual progress,
    growth, plan and execution plan and started investing
    more time on study.

    Guru Dev, Currently reading below books:
     1. BG
    2. Padma-Puran
    3. Prabhupada's Articls
   
   www.jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt, Guru-tattva always aspire me to do as per your
   instructions. Feel...instruction from you. It shows, where i am?  Guru-tattva is check list
   for my sadana.

  Guru Dev, you will be in India on Feb 2014, correct? And as per your letter, you will take
  flight immediately for Kolkata, once you land in New Delhi, correct?  you will be in
  Kolkata with Dr. Bandopadhaya, from 9 Feb - 15 Feb 2014 and then you will go to
  Mayapur for ILS meetings.
HpS - ASA - Jaya! Get local Siksa gurus!!!   We have not yet bought Delhi to Kolkata ticket, 9 Feb. If someone wants us to spend one day in Delhi then we could do that, but if we don't get any news like that we will buy Delhi to CCU soon. Any suggestions?
  After that on 23rd, you will go to Lucknow and Vraja and will back to USA the 1st of
  November.....We are happy, you are staying very long time in India.

  As you advised, further, we could come for ILS also. Could join the group from our
 Temple.  

HpS - Yes!
  Please guide, where we can join you, so that we can have associate more.
 Thank you, Guru Dev.
your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

   HpS - Again, looking for local Siksa gurus. Also we have this NIOS promotional project for the NIOS books that we wrote to you about in Yahoo. We will answer your and Harsh's letter in a few days!!!  Hari Bolo!   Hari Bolo!     More news about your Yatra!

haribol.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All Glories to you.


Please accept my humble obeisances. Haribolo Maharaja,

 
I am chanting 16 daily rounds and doing decoration service at "Dasanudasa" Festival here at Argentina mandire. One Sunday per month I do administrative service in temple, collecting money to help temple expenses, I do also offer my assitance at Lila Mohini´s Nama Hatta ,and keep assisting to Bhakti Yoga introduction course (This is last module, then I´ll begin Disciple course).
 
To answer to your question in last letter, I do actually live with my boyfriend (We´re together  for 4 years) and my family is integrated by my mom and 6 brothers, the little ones usually go to Jiva Goswami´s house, to see deities there (We´d live just half block of distance from Gupta Vrndavana dham , in Bernal town , Buenos Aires).
 
Bhakti Yoga introduction course is given by Maha Hari Das. I´ve meet you in 2009, during Bs.As Ratha Yatra, and since that moment I felt in my heart that you´ll be my Guru, but just since a few I´d really understood the importance of having a Guru .
 
I´ve spoke with Temple president (Maha Hari Das) and approve the formal exam, and he told me that I had his recommendation, and that I should write you to ask for your shelter (Siksa). If it´s possible and your desire, please let me know an email address where Maha Hari Das can send you the recommendation letter.
 
I hope you´re being in good healt Maharaja, best wishes.
 
Bhaktin Lara
 
HpS - ASA - AGTSP.....    Very nice letter. Why not formalize the marriage relation? I'm surprised that Maha-hari Das would send a letter of recomendation without formalizing the marriage. This is a requirement from the GBC body and Guna-grahi Swami is so strict about this.   Is there some legal problem?   It seems like a formality, but not without meaning. What is your husbands name? Is he also chanting rounds? Are you all following four principles in your daily life???
