P   paoho.    Last night in NIOS/Tennessee. Sunday.   Tommorrow to Houston. Health and energy up to normal (for 65-years old).     We've answered the mail up to 6-days ago, and all the projects seem to be reasonably under control. We are still getting pressure to do more than we should, but we are dealing with it pretty well. Daivi-varna-ashrama-dharma Ki Jai!

Very excellent report from our old friend in Bali: www.jayarama.us/archives/130609-manipuris-visit-bali

Next step is to get Abhiseka and us and Rama-giridhari Das on the phone about starting Goloka Trust Schools in USA, Houston, Nila-madhava Dhama!

Head or Heart is Vedanta - II

Hare krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisnaces, all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

First of all my sincere thanks for the reply/guidance and it helped me a lot to understand about my confusion (a bit about goal of the life, these quota, Karma etc) and able to know a bit the difference of a "true feeling" and a feeling like feeling (through my intelligence).

What I understood, is with this conditioned body/life, a "true feelings" comes in glimpse and to make it longer, lot of endeavor on ones part and the mercy of Krishna, Spiritual master and other devotees.

The more I read and all are point to Krishna (what else is there other than the LORD) and to really to know krishna, there is nothing other than "serving the lord"

Please help me to correct my self and to be worthy to serve the LORD.

Your humble servant

-Srinivasa (from Richmond)

                HpS - Jaya!    AGTSP.   Paoho.  We are back in USA as you may see in the DTCs. Your understanding seems very nice.   Another way to look at it is that the sun is shinning from the left.  We are following a path through the woods. Sometimes it comes to a little peak and we can see the mountain where we are headed in the distance, so we have enough indicators to keep on the path and we can see that we are getting closer.  As we get closer the view of the mountain is more often and with more detail.   Jaya! Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!!          See you very soon!            Send us some news of your regular work, Karma yoga.

long long time (madhavendra puri das from argentina)

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

All Glories to Gaura Bhakta vrinda!

Hare krishna dear gurudev, please accept my humble obeisenses.

Long, long time no writing to you, i m sorry. This year have started in a frenetic activities rythm, to much ocupated allways. Doing much service, working much. 

 With my wife and other devotees we are organizing the sunday feast once a month , and  we call it dasanudasa party. the idea is to recover that spirtit, and its beeing very very nice, many devotees geting inspired, also working much in recovering the senior devotees , giving them their space, improving the prasadam and many areas, many ideas to serve the devotees comunity. 

I continue working with my wife cooking and selling prasadam, much demand of the clients, much work, little bit tired but happy. Thinking about taking staff, to get work more light.

            HpS - ASA -  AGTSP!!!  Paoho.  Very nice to hear from you all...   YES!   Once you know how to do it right, teach someone else!  Don't work harder, work smarter!  Utsahan.

We have also a shop in a organic fair, thats very good, people buy a lot of prasadam and also many prabhupadas books. Also with the need of doing some diferent things,more intelectual, artistic. Also continue giving yoga classes, thats nice, but many people are looking for a psycologhist. Making some programs with yogic people, last week we project the light of bhagavata movie  and do a film discussion , kirtan and prasadam, people very very happy. 

Also with ambarisa, vrisabanu, and many of your disciples we are organizing some programs for your visit, many ideas, maybe doing some preview programs, before your coming.

In february in the nitiananda s appearece day we installed gour nitai deitys in my home, since that time i was wanting to write you but not doing it i send you a photo of them, and if you want ,you con put them some nice name, we get them in vrindavana, and radha carana paint them for us.

 Sadhana: following the 4 principles, strugling to finish my 16 rounds every day, with much much problems to wake up early, also to go to sleep early. Also very very tired many times and that makes me difficult to wake up.can you give me some advice in this point?

              HpS - http://www.jayarama.us/archives/japa-joe.txt     Search in the text file for "GET UP EARLY TANTRA" You have to DO IT!! Then later you can take a nap. After some time you become used to getting up early and getting your rounds done. You get more done, and then you can go to bed earlier also!

Many times very tired of material life, also becoming aware of the varana asharama,  of how grihasta ashrama is like getting very  very tired of this word to finally renounce and attach only to krishna.

             ASA - Jaya!

ohh, gurudeva, sorry for this very long recharged mail. one last thing, maybe some familiar is going to give me a donation of land near the los andes mountains, very nice to develop comunity projects, please give your blessings. 

hope you health is super ok,

your  very bad disciple,

Madhavendra Puri DAS

          HpS - Fourth thing is land. 1) Who am I,   2) Who are we,   3)What is our plan,   4)What land, money, men, tools.  Jaya!!    Get to work!   Send report on how many rounds you have done by 10AM daily average after a few weeks!          Look for Names for your nice Gaura Nitai from Caitanya caritamrta!  Send us options..

One Sunday in the month we organize the Sunday fest. But with the idea to Share the spirit of service, love and trust. Having a personal care for each person in the festival more than 50 deevotees doing service to prepare the festival, new and seniors. Also little by little we want to have a unite family senior and new devotees cooperate and do service toghether. This is a important topic in argentina, so many years with generations of devotees disconected between each others.

In sumerize shareing the spirit of Lord Caitanya of Dasanudasa. We allready organize 4 festivales and were súper succes. a lote of devotees inspired and happy, many séniors devotees came back again to do service. And i feel that the devotees that organize give the best of his heart and Krsna do the magic.

About the studies

12 years, 2 months ago by Christian in Other

Hare Krishna Maharaja!!

Please accept my forced-to-be-humble obeisancess at your lotus feet

            HpS - ASA - Cherry Blossom Feet.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

I´m sorry for not being specific enought in the last letter, and also i will follow your advice to write everything for the blog, so your instructions can be for the benefit of others, rather than just for me.

Well, about studing philology, it's not in the school Aravinda P. is doing for SP books, its a normal society University, yesterday i signed up in the university of Irapuato, so i will start the 1st semester in august, (thats ending the SB course here in Cueramaro) and my clases there would be only the saturdays, so the rest of the week i can keep my service for the reprinting of SB, and sundays i think sankirtana at least half day with your blessings!

That was the other reason i was asking about the idea of Brahmacari ashram, because, i already made Aravinda P. think twice if its the best for me to take it or not, because of my behavior, and of course, if i study in karmy University, i will be in touch with woman. My desire is to please you and Krishna, i will push myself to do it, as the way you tell me to do it.

Your dumb servant:

Bh. Christian

                HpS - Jaya.  Thank you.  In our opinion if you are dealing properly with women as Sankirtan, not talk with them alone, and you have been following nicely for 6-months you should wear saffron as a proper communication to devotees of what is your status, but this varies according to local standard.   To us your work seems nice, balanced.

Ur Lotus Feet / Reading Alone

12 years, 2 months ago by Gopal C Biswas in Personal Sadhana Reports, Hot Topics

Hare Krsna Respected Guru Maharaj,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

             HpS - ASA   -   Apple Blossom Feet (maybe)

    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

               HpS - ASA - Jaya!
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    This letter is answer to your earlier letter.

    Guru Dev, Your feet is always lotus. There is no doubt. You present Sri Sri Radha-
    Kunjabihari to all of us so we don't have any doubt.

           HpS - We sleep like 8-hours in a day often. Srila Prabhupada slept 4-5 usually. Often when we are tired we watch bio-graphys and documentaries rather than read the Krsna book.  This is symptom of Madhyama-adhikari. No spontaneous attraction, 100%.  Apple blossom feet, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada.  No "Maya" that breaks four principles. Relating bio-graphys to KC. Material desires under control and diminishing, but if we try to imitate Srila Prabhupada's position we won't advance. 


    No, there is no study partner. We Read alone. During reading, We collect/write lots of   questions and doubts and go to temple and then discuss with Temple Bramachari,
   (whom i report at the local temple).

         HpS - Aaaah!   So that is not reading alone.  You are with him in Vani. Perfect!  Who is this B'cari?


    Your words always give me strength, Like, When you speak with the convection that
    we have Beadd-bag and Prabhupada's book so no need to worry, even if we go to hell. We
   should not worry.

    I live with your words and will live with your Words.

    You speak about Sri Radha-Krsna with such a convection, which i never find anywhere.

    As you advised, We will surely search your lectures in the ISKCON Juhu, website.

    Actually, we were looking for your lecture & question/answer session on BG 9.22.

    Thank you, Guru Dev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

                HpS - Jaya!  AgtSP.  All glories to your ISKCON Temple!      Sorry little late to answer... one week.  We are doing better.  Recovering from so much service AND pushing not to do too much now!         O.K.  Join us for the rest of today's letters!
