Hare Krishna!!!

Todas las glorias a sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu

Todas las glorias a usted Gurudeva

Esperando se encuentre bien al recibir el presente reporte.

Seguimos esforzandonos por llevar acabo nuestro Sadhana cada día y como somos tan caidos algunos días cuesta más que otros pero seguimos de pie y adelante con la meta de algun día ser sirivientes esternos de nuestro querido Sri Krishna.

4 principios y 16 rondas fijas día con día, Leyendo libros de Srila Prabhupada. El fin de semana pasado estuvo en Uruapan prabhu Aniruddha dandonos un curso sobre conciencia de Krishna en la sociedad contemporanea, nos ha ayudado bastante para nuestra vida espiritual y como poderla llevar acabo en este mundo material tan caido, él prabhu comento que no solo debemos leer los libros de Srila Prabhupada sino que debemos estudiarlos y ese es mi proposito de ahora en adelante, estudiar cada libro cada pagina...

Estoy empezando una nueva etapa, mi mamá se fue a vivir a otra ciudad y ahora estoy solo con mi hijo, con muchas responsabilidades nuevas pero contenta porque tengo un hogar completamente concuente de Krishna solo cocinando para Krishna, ahora en casa no se cocina nada de carne. humildemente le pido su instrucción para seguir adelante y ser una buena guía para mi hijo.

Le ruego disculpe mis ofensas 

Su aspirante a sirviente

HpS - ASA - Jaya!   TlgaSP!   ... Muy bien...   Esta estudiando en la escuela? Es tan deficil para nosotros recordar quienes quien. Vd tiene un hijo, yo tengo mas de cien. Ha! Ha! Ha...    Es bueno estudiar Upadesamrta con asociacion de devotos. Hay un devoto con quien puede estudiar?

AGTSP!
paoho.  6.03PM.  We answered some letters but still have letters from one week and one day old to work on. We could be better devotees, more efficient, but we are really doing pretty well. We just have a lot of work to do.
We are becoming always more concentrated.
O.K. Now we drive in Rtadhvaja Swami's mother's car to Nitai-gaurasundara Das home. It is about 12-minutes from here, but we will stop at K-Mart (nice name, no?) and buy a few supplys. Then we will go for his regular walk, 45-minutes.
Read the KRSNA book and come back.
We wanted to answer more letters.
Post our ABC notes and read our BhVai verses.

Hmmm..
 

ABC
We are still with the BhVai classes Saturday in English and Tuesday in Spanish on Startmeeting.com.

Friday at 11.30AM is the Hawaii class. Google ISKCON Hawaii.

Daily 1.30-3.30 AM is Japa Joe.

Some other stuff going on with Japa-sankirtan and we are plannng to do a formal reading of Tamal Krsna Goswami's book from Oxford or Cambridge Press. You can get it at Amazon. That will be part of our Carl Jung work.

Join us, get a copy. It's called "A Living Theology of Krsna Bhakti".

AGTSP;AGTHPS,PAMHO...

HpS  ASA - Tiene que escribir un poema de dos lineas en ingles!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Querido Gurudeva
por favor acepte mis más respetuosas reverencias

No pude enviar antes el poema, faltaba ayuda para traducir. Finalmente la traducción fue realizada por madre Fernanda Figueroa. Ella está refugiada en los pies de Loto de SS Jayapataka Swami.

FREEWILLcLIBRE ALBEDRÍO:

O seguimos viviendo como cuervos en el mundo material vida tras vida

O paso a paso nos convertimos en cisnes gracias a Krishna y Sri Guru.

Su aspirante a sirviente,

Bhakta Rodrigo Hernández Piceros

HpS - ASA - TlgaSP.  Pfanrh. Traduccion por Buck White:
Oh, we continue live like crows in the material world life after life
Oh, step by step we can become swans by the mercy of Guru and Krsna.

Are you becoming a swan?

Dear Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

In addition to bhakta Nicasio's question about Hridayananda das Goswami's Krishna West idea, in this link maharaja explains it. If you already have this information, kindly discard this message.

Your insignificant servant,
Raghava Pandita dasa

HpS - Jaya!  AGTSP  paoho.  Very interesting topics. Little long for us to read everything. I've heard a lot of the points from Maharaja before. He is my older godbrother. I respect him very much. I like his style very much. Some points we approach things very differently. I like to go in as Hanumatpresaka Swami (Professor Huber Hutchin Robinson). He likes to go in as Professor Harold Resnick (?) (Hrdayananda Goswami), but after discussing it he said that it is just two different ways of approach.

Become good at what you do.

During all these controversies of dress etc. when Maharaja visited South America I notced in a purport that Srila Prabhupada said, "Vedic culture, Varna-ashrama-dharma". Is a simple way to look at it.

In general Prabhupada was and I THINK still would be strongly inclined to Sannyasi dressing in the typical manner of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati and all his Sannyasa disciples and the way that Srila Prabhupada requiered of all his disciples.

This is the Formality of the Sannyasa life. The Sannyasi is supposed to set a formal example of renunciation, formality. Seems like an oxymoron, but that is the job. A married lady is supposed to have a ring on a certain finger.

If Maharaja is acting like a Paramahamsa, which is O.K., then dressing in informal fashion seems fine. But then our suggestion was that he should not do the formal work of a diksa guru anymore. Let some disciples do it. Diksa guru should set a formal example that his neofyte disciples can see and imitate.

Hmmmf!  Our simple ideas.

Without Hrdayananda Goswami ISKCON would be a lot less interesting.

hare krisna beloved gurudeva, pamho, agtSP, when can i call you? what is the proper time so we can speak by phone for a little moment? at your lotus feet, bhakta nicasio.

HpS - ASA - Jaya!   AGTSP.   We are on Skype and you can always try there. We are two hours earlier than you. Tommorrow we will be out at the library, but even then we can talk some of the time.

Our cellular is 209-505-3219!

Waiting!
