hari bol

           HpS - AGTSP...      I don't really remember any new ones we did.  We just used the Sankhya ones and the LOB ones that we already had.    We did the "Bhaktivedanta Library, Overview of all 12-cantos and overview of 1st two cantos also."   I see the bvlibrary there.  I think they are all there.     We are learning about media.    We are acclaimed as Masters of Power Point by esteemed Directors.    O.K.   Even a Dog has his tail.        So we did japa-joes.pptx and that includes reference to japa-joe.doc.  Hmmm?  How does the combination work?   ?    ?

fortnight update-2

11 years, 11 months ago by harsh_horse in Personal Sadhana Reports

hare krsna maharaj,
thank you for replying to all the posts till now. last post report was noe\de 3129].
you asked us questions like " can you chant four rounds with full attention and concentration?   Whatever it takes.     Of course this is like lifting heavy weights, hard, hard work, but can you do that?        No, two rounds???     What? "

answ: we can chant rounds with good attention provided we happy sleep and no boday ache. but such circumstances are very rare. without them we can some how force is able to listen mantras properly, but there is a lot of scope on improvement. but we feel very uneasy if we dont chant 16 rounds.

            HpS - ASA =   AGTSP.   Paoho.    You are really advancing a lot.  How is your good wife and good son and good parents and good professors and good classmates?      Yes, as we get stronger internally we can chant good Japa with poor physical situation.    Yes, 16-even bad rounds have an effect!

....current sadhana:  drank 250ml wated on nirjala for nature's call. after no water or food. only air and thoughts. did karma yoga till 2am. 

           HpS  -   Was good experience.  "Thoughts"  were better than normal?

...regulalry 16 rounds, every alterante day sansar dava [ we need to expand to nrsingh arti, tulsi pooj, siksa astak, flowe, incense]

           HpS - Not necesary expand, just keep "Wake Up Radha-Krsna!", Gurv-astaka, Kirtan, Japa, SB, Prasadam ....    Make-A-Lot-Of-Money    .....  Evening program for/with family...   If you like to expand O.K.             Tulasi!!!

     .....heavily violated one rule, we wont go in detail. it seems we are repressing it simply without dovetaling. Now for householder issues we are taking help of Urmila Mataji and Anant Rupa pr. Urmila   Mataji recommended us [i] Bhaktyaloka of BVT -- very good commentary on noi 2,3  [ii] non violent communication. things are improving, but dont know if  they are improving at right pace.

           HpS - Ashrama Guru's Ki Jai!!!!      "Right Pace" - We are immortal.   Get the job quickly done, if that is really lots of fun.

Every time we think of becoming formal aspirant. after 20 days, we surrender to our mind. we want to follow 4 rules , but can not maintian dozen of wife and kids.. details we can not discuss.

        HpS - You are informal disciple.  Others are formal disciples.    Both are good.   Keep working on your problems.      I hear over and over again that so many people are listening to these letters.    I would estimate that there are 25-people with the same problems you have, no details, trying to solve them.  Yes, we are in Sannyasa situation. We cannot deal with certain things.   Others are Ksatriyas.  They cannot deal with certain things that a Sannyasi can.           Prabhupada could not sit in a street side cafe in Paris to wait for the car because they served meat and wine there because he was an Acharya.  He did austerity of standing up.         Ashrama guru, Ki Jai!

..... sankirtana: many people come towards these days both bachelor devotees and phd students to ask many questions, we give them books, make them read vedabase.com.
Hail Bhvai, even a fall man like us can say something. People really appreciate SP purports.

......we got your letter to manipur.  devotee from agartala asks about your welfare, so we asked him to read blog.

..... we have relaized our mind is main culpirt, and we listen and obey to it a lot.
we wanted to ask {if you can reply scientifically/pyschologcally] [ i ]what are mechanisms of mind control?  [ii] what is the science of mind control through maha mantra ? [iii] why when we have inadequte diet its very easy to loose mind control [iv] why does mind feel calm in temple environment}

               HpS -   Did you see the Japa-Joe.pptx that we linked in  the last Kapi-Dhvaja?    We opened the "Two Psychology Schools" link that you gave us.  We read the intro and it was very valuable to know what the schools are now, but seemed too detailed for us to read nust now.   Help us develop our writing, pptx, stuff so that it is useful.     I think 90% of the answers that we have to your above questions are in the japa-joe.pptx.     Tell us what you think.        We are trying to develop these things systematically.    We added like five more slides to the Japa-Joe.pptx and consider it maybe finished.  We have to post that final version and then wait for reviews.          Now we have started a dialog with Carl Jung...  There are so many things we can say, but 90% of the job is now trying to edit them into the right time and place.

Our phd is going fine,we got our guide change , he has roots in  pyschology [bachelor,master and phd]

          HpS - What is his name????       Uncle Gismo is thinking of offering a PhD from.. Doctor of Phalocracia.


...... in Lilamrta we learned that SP asked only question from HDGBSST. We have asked you many questions except the most important one," how can i serve you ?"
trying to follow the Saint,
dwarf

          TB - Esteemed Dwart, you are doing very well serving HpSwami....   You are not giving up in the face of obstacles.   You are becoming a useful tool.   You have already done incredible service,  Kolkatta Museum Show et al.

visit to Argentina Ambarisa das

11 years, 11 months ago by Ambarisa Maharaja Das in Calendar Development

hare krsna

pamho _______ò__

agtsp all glories to you guru dev 

i want to ask you about your visit to Argentina. probably for you will be better to stay in one place and people for other places came to Bs As to visit you no? not much travels.

we know you need to rest and write so  we can organize only program in BS AS. 

you say that good organization with the programs is good rest.

personally i want to see you again and have your association like others devotees also want, but i m also feell that if you dont come to Argentina or south america you can rest and write. these will be good for you and your writings. what do you think?

thank you for your mercy and guidance

your servant Ambarisa m das.

                 HpS - ASA - AGTSP   paoho.      We have to focus on writing.  Did you see the PPTX, Japa-Joe, that we linked in the last Kapi Dhvaja?     That is a little part of what we are trying to produce for Sankhya.      It seems that do this kind of work we have to have energy. Traveling can reduce or increase your energy.   If you look at the DTC today you can see how much energy the travel to Denver took, but it is nice to be in a place with fresh air. Peaceful mountains...   We are back in Tennessee, our base, on July 16th. I think we can begin to settle down and get things more organized when we are there, see how much energy we have etc.      Then we can plan for doing some useful service there.    How about your service?      Has Krsna given you good intelligence what part He wants to play?    Did Draupadi know what part she was playing in Krsna's plans?

DTC Th(27)

11 years, 11 months ago by hps in DTC

  A G T S P !    (paoho)         We arrived in Denver!         All Wednesday morning in Houston we were packing, final emergency meetings and then to the airport. Cramped...   in the aeroplane. A beautiful young girl sat next to us.   Booooop!   What a wonderful view out the plane window.....    Never even looked at her face.         Landed.         Lost in the Denver airport.  Giant place.        Found the Train to the Baggage area.    Choo!    Chooooo!     Chooo!              Monkey swung on the bars and straps on the way there.   People looked at him without too much aghast.  "After all, Marge, he's a monkey."

    Got phone call from Bhakta Adam: "Waiting for you in the waiting area.  Call when you got your bag."...........   Sine said, "Your Bags on Carousel 5", but actually they were in Carousel 6.   Waited.  Chanted.  First bag came.      ...      ...      ..   Second bag didn't come.  Maybe it got left on the airplane that has now go to San Diego...   Waited.  All the people gone, three bags on the carousel, but not ours.     "Excuse, me Miss, my bag is not here".   "What is your name?".      "Here this is your bag!".....   Oh, my God, how embarrassing.  I didn't recognize it upside down!   O.K. Call Adam.  Go outside.  There are six different pick-up lanes...  "May I help you?"       "Yes, my friend is coming to pick me up.  Which lane should I go to?"...

You have to go one level down.   This is only for buses and taxis.

          How do we get there?

Go back inside or take the stairs there.

            Plunk!    Plunk!     Plunk!  ....  Bouncing our two bags with 25KGs of books down the stairs.    Cut our ankle a little....      Found a space by the curb.  Bh.  Adam sees us.  Loads us.  Its rather hot.   Off we go!!                 asDFgh@#$5^

BA:   Oh, goodness.   The engine is overheating.

         We stopped by the side of the road just outside the BIG TERMINAL  117 cars/minute are roaring past us.   Look at the engine.  The water is boiling.  (Its rather hot in the sun).   Then . . . .    a police car pulls up.  Real big, nice black police guy, asks intelligent questions and then says that the BIG TERMINAL has free towing to the gas station nearby.  O.K.  We call Bhakta Noah and he and all the B'caris will load into the van and pick us up and we can go directly to the program in Boulder.           Tow truck comes. Lifts the front of our car starts to pull it...   SREEECH!    The back tires are locked in 4-wheel drive and wont turn.  He puts it down and puts special wheels under our wheels and starts to pull it.....   Thunk-itty!    Thunk-itty!            One of his special tires is flat...    It disintegrartes in smoke and the tow truck calls a tow truck.   We get to the gas station.  Sit under a tree.   The big black police guy is a Deacon in a Baptist Church.  He takes a book and all in all we talk for about 20-minutes.  He is a Madhyama adhikari.  Very nice guy.  He says he's really looking forward to reading our book.  Tells the Gas Station people to take good care of us.

Krishna, did you arrange all that for us to meet this guy????

O.K. Brahmacaris show up.  All in Safron, Noah, Matthew, Adam, Peter.  Notice anything unusual about their names.           Boulder after 45-minutes.  High class college town.  All kinds of young, vegetarian people.   About 40-devotees sittinng in the park chanting.  Very, very nice. Taking with people.  Rather hot and Rather exhausted.   Back in the van....   get to to our room at 9.30PM  (10.30PM Houston).    Little rustic, but in the Ashrama!   The internet doesn't work!!   "Well ask Bhakti Joseph tommorrow".

             Body starved.....  Prayed to God, Lord Nrsmha Deva to help us!!!!   We ate three nice cookies and took rest.  Couldn't get on Japa Joe...    Woke up at 1.15AM  but mostly rested...             Morning program.  One hour to get internet going. 19-rounds done.  NO SB CLASS!  (Jaya!   We are learning).   Where is laundry.  Where is President?       Where is Krsna House for program tonight.           Listen to M. Urmilla's Class from Hawaii.  Tommorrow we give class.            Internet from the Ashrama is only 2-bars.  Doesn't deal with Webex...  Trying to get key so we can get into the Temple Room at 1.25AM for Japa Joe.

       ... O.K.      Radha Govinda's arati for noon has just started.      They are beautiful.  Denver is beautiful.   5,500 feet high.  NOTHING in any direction from here.  Cowboy town.  Lot of people we haven't seen for 5-10-20 years!

        Let's go take bath.  Wash our clothes.    See if we can do e-mail from the ashrama.  We've finished the first draft of the Japa-Joe Powerpoint show.  Now we are starting a Word document of a Dialog with Carl Jung.    We have to see how our energy level works out as we put writing in the forefront and then we can see how we are going to travel.  Maybe we just go to South America for two weeks only....    Travel can be good and bad for writing.  We have to really put writing in the front.   It's going to be hard.  It requires surrender and harder work than we are doing!!      Thank you.   .     Your life is the same I bet..! !         AGTSP!!!!

Hare Krsna Maharaj and TB
PAMHO, AGTSP.
hope you are well. we are fine trying to serve parampara with our mental and bodily diseases to some degree, hope things are better as time pasees.

we expect some thing unprecedented may happen in Jan 2014. [Maybe monkey and piggy may retire]..
anyway this paper from Ame Pys Assoc. talks about the emerging perspectives http://sonoma.edu/users/s/smithh/psy380/toc/posts/values.pdf

a new term call positve pyscho is mentioned here. becasue till freud and only people with mental problems were studied in pysc labs.  This paper also talks about philo asssumptions the theory have

i understand this paper can be useful to you if you were to continue preaching in areas you did a year back.

but we dont know about your long term plans. still we are sharing it.

we thank you for  giving so so so much association through webex, letters, japa.
we are eternally indebted to you. we dont know if we can be come formal candidate before you stop giving intiation. but still we would continue to serve you in whatver possible way.

gracias sri sri gauranga nitay!

gracias srila prabhupada!!

gracias su santidad hanumat presaka swami maharaja!!!

gracias devotos y devotas del brahman supremo sri krisna!!!!

david (hno burro)

escribo para pedir perdon por las multiples ofensas que por locura cometi. primero porque me enoje con la energia externa de dios confundiendola con el, por lo mismo que tube malos pensamientos con su divina y santa persona maharaja, y con muchos devotos. segundo porque al hablarle me tome mucha confianza. tercero, yo hice que sri guru lea conversaciones privadas que tube con una devota del señor. cuarto, blasfeme en publico en facebook cuando puso una maravillosa dicipula suya con gran amor una foto suya conmigo etiquetado en su sagrado corazon. quinto, su santidad unas veces me hablo privadamente con mucho cariño y yo no conteste sus mensajes ni ovedeci sus muchos consejos para mi adelanto en conciencia de dios. sexto, porque desde el principio hasta el fin no hice mas que mentir y buscar prestigio y fama a costa de su bondad, sri guru...

siempre endeudado y con mucha verguenza por las innumerables negligencias cometidas, lo saludo de corazon y ruego perdon a todos. mis resverencias respetuosas a la autoridad que es iskcon, su divino ser, sus hermanos, a todos. a sus santos pies. jaya nityananda.

             ASA - TlgaSP.  Jaya!  Podemos entender como 78% de su carta.  Ooof Muy poetico pero muchas palabras intensos, entonces no podemos entender si esta blasfemiando HpSwami a veces o pidiendo desculpas.   Pero ambos son buenos.  Aparece Vd. como un loco amable, y eso es el prequisito entender Senor Nityananda.

Otro carta con reportaje de su Sankirtana!
