Letters to the editor

Querido Gurudev: Pamho. TgSP y seguidores fieles.

Gracias por sus consejos. Los brahmanas siempre dan buenos consejos para el bien general.

Su español es mucho mejor que mi inglés. Gracias por comunicarse en español!

Mi opinión sobre el blog es que debe ser para "animar" a los devotos, para aumentar "utsaha" (esfuerzo con inteligencia) con buenas noticias, propuestas de mejora (objetivos) individuales y colectivas, etc. La critica (opiniones negativas) deberia ser muy estricta y ajustarse a algunas reglas. Hay un dicho que dice:

"Dios me libre de juzgar a un hermano sin haber calzado durante un mes sus zapatos"

Creo que antes de publicar una critica en un foro público como internet:

Hay que estar seguro de que lo que se publica es verdad.

El que hace la critica debe aportar soluciones y debe estar muy comprometido con la solución.

Hay que analizar bien si la critica va a mejorar  a los devotos o proyectos. No olvidemos que cuando criticamos un proyecto estamos criticando a los devotos que lo estan llevando. (de la misma manera que cuando criticamos  un edificio estamos criticando al arquitecto que lo diseñó).

etc.........

            HpS - ASA -  TLGASP.  pfanrh.  Si, todo es un hecho.  We tried.. Esforze seguir y predicar esta norma como antes pero somos Buck White, Tom Brown y Tio Gismo aqui con ayuda de HpSwami y nuestro Castellano NO es bien.  Entonces todo el mundo tiene que entender que para nosotros leer las cartas con inteligencia es como Vd leyendo una carta en Portugues.   Ooof.        Tratamos mejorar.  No deja ayudar nosotros.    Esperamos no solamente nosotros pero todos leyen esta carta y mejorar cosas!

En cuanto al Yatra español, creo que vamos en buena dirección y la velocidad ira aumentando cuando el camino se vaya haciendo mas ancho. Mi visión es que los proyectos deben funcionar administrativamente independiente y luego todos los devotos de todos los proyectos debemos reunirnos (mínimo una vez al año) para sravanam, kirtanam, tomar prasadam, preguntar confidencialmente, abrazarnos, hablar con devotos afines de nuestros de nuestros retos, problemas, etc. En definitiva hacer algunos Festivales en común. En Agosto tenemos todos los lideres una reunión con GBC y otros devotos importantes para trazar un recorrido de encuentro y ver que cosas podemos hacer en común.

            HpS - ASA -  Muy bien....  Muy bien.  Pero yo pienso el Consejo Rectorial tiene que tener reuniones como cada dos meces al minimo con los devotos, no?   Y cosas importantes escritos como todos puede trabajar con un vision juntos  y   fijando cosas, proyectos para un templo fijado.  ... "This is our goal until Janmastami and then we will review it all".   Yes.... Vaisnava relacions before Administrative relations.  Administrative, Varna-ashrama relacions based upon Vaisnava relacions. Jaya.  Being DRAWN into this discussion by twenty devotees.  Sentimos que el sendero es muy adelantado como antes progressar y si dejamos ententar no vamos a encontrar mejor situacion en ninguna otro sitio en ISKCON!

Gracias por su servicio a Srila Prabhupada y a ISKCON y a toda la comunidad de devotos. Pienso que usted se comporta como un sadhu; aunque el titulo oficial de sadhu, pienso que no debe darse hasta que no se deja el cuerpo.

Sin mas se despide

               HpS - ASA -  Jaya.  Oink!  Oinnk!   Whoop!  Whoop!   Mas!!

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!

O.K. Krsna, book!!!!

Don't so anything practical after 8.00PM

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.

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..

Hare krsna, hare rama
          jay sri vrindavana dham!!!

           HpS-ASA -  AGTSP!   paoho.   Long time!

We still editing the vídeos for south India. we want to finishing soon. we star after Your last vyasuja a festival call Dasanudasa. the organization start with Madhavendra Puri, his wife Yasoda mayi, devakinandana and his wife, vrsabhanu nandini and i but now there moré devotees like Marcos, Gabriela and Meru devi. 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.

Very beautifull atmosphere of bhakti. We upload the lectures in youtube by the ñame of Dasanudasa.
