Hare Krisna, Maharaja. Accept my humble obeisances, dandavats. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Thank you so much for your last reply to my lastest posts and your upadesa.

I'm starting to do changes to follow your tips as get up earlier before sunrise.

It's harder being to get up earlier in the morning. But bit by bit i'm getting up earlier ( 1 hour and half before sunrise).

My rounds of Japa are going up to 20-24.

The last week i was in Malta for 4 days with Yadunandana Swami, Jara Maya Hari Das, and my wife to do Sankirtan. There's living a devotte, Lakshmi. She has a yoga group. Yadunandana Swami gave a conference in the Philosophy's departament of de Malta University. We distributed 132 Sirla Prabhupada's books, we sang the Holy Names, etc ... It was a wonderful experience.

I don't take you more time. Thank you for your attention.

Your servan Nityasevaka.

       AGTSP.  HpS - ASA  -  Thank you for the news!   Yes, up early and life is easy!!

Nitai Chadra's Anniversary

12 years, 5 months ago by msrinu in Other

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

This is Srinivasa from Richmond, VA. It's been while and we have some good news to share with you. It's been an year that you named our deities "Nitai Chaitanya Chandra" and we celebrated their anniversary at our home (Nitai Chandra Mandir) on this March 3rd.

Here with, I'm posting some of the snaps to (our joy) share with you.

And also we are continuing our daily sandha and reading, attending the con-calls and Bhakti-Vriksha every week.

Slowly realizing, how difficult it is to do sadhana (Good 16 rounds and especially the last few rounds of chanting) on every day to day basis. And realized a fact that unless I prioritize, it will be very difficult with the day to day work.

Hoping to receive your mercy and be worth of Krishna's servant.

-Srinivasa

Hare Krsna.   AGTSP.   paoho.  So, nice to hear from you all!   Thank you for the news and photos.  We hope to get to your side for Labor Day weekend again even with Professor Gupta!.

You can see we are in Australia now.  We just finished lunch. It was more peaceful but still about 10 diffrent items cooked by 6 different people!    Several people watching while you eat and suggesting please now try this, now this.  It is like a comedy but it is a struggle to eat calmly meditating on what your poor body needs.  Very funny.

If we put the rounds as priority for some time then we realize that they make EVERYTHING easier: Health, money, family, power, preaching, immortality...  Everything. Then they are easier to chant.  Then we actually FEEL them working.   Try getting that higher taste like on Ekadasi. Put them in high priority for some time and then you will see this is just the most practical thing from every aspect.

HANUMAT SWAMI KI JAI!

HpS - Jaya AGTSP.   paoho.  I think we already answered one letter almost the same, no, but again it is very nice to hear from you.  You can see from our Calendar www.jayarama.us/kd/cal.txt what our rought schedule is. We are based in Tennessee so maybe we can meet there. Where is Gajahanta Ji living, your Mother??

Wow, it has definitely been too long that I've missed your association!  This is Nela Madhava (the name Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara gave me)  aka Neal Shonyo (the name my parents gave me).  Krishna guided me to your youtube videos and I've been eager to get in touch.  I am delighted to see the amazing work you are doing and would like to lend myself to your service in any way possible.  Is there any time you will be in the US possibly on the east coast?  I would really like to reconnect asap!  Perhaps you could bring the Bhati seminar to my school before I graduate next year.  I am currently attending University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida.  My studies are in Accounting but I have also taken classes in philosophy of religion and religious studies (there is a very obvious lack of eastern tradition represented...maybe purposely?).  At any rate, I wanted to relay that I am available to assist in your service and am fairly capable in video production and graphic design.  I have done some projects for school and also commercially but its been pretty mundane content.  My real enthusiasm is to produce more spiritually inclined content in Krishna's service. 

I'm also working on an organization called Philosophers of Today, Philanthropists of Tomorrow.  Its objective is to find practical philosophical answers to societal problems as well as philanthropically based financial means to carry out such strategies.  Sources tell me these answers can be found in the books of Srila Prabhupada and other Vaishnavas.  I also was interested in putting together an interreligious conference  at my school and inviting representatives of the various faiths to speak on the topic of conflict resolution and cultivation of an empathic society.  Seeing the selfless work of pure Vaishnavas such as yourself and Srila Sripad has inspired me to follow in that path.  My only relief in this constant struggle with material life is the spiritual principles instilled in me by pure devotees such as yourself. 

I also wanted to sincerely thank you for blessing our home in California with your presence and performing the fire yugya before my birth.  I only recently learned of this from my father.  It may be more than a coincidence that I took a great liking toward the Ramayana and Hanuman at a very young age and even today have two Hanuman deities in my home. 

Looking forward serving you,

Nela Madhava

   Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias. Si, puede ser el próximo sábdo, voy  a avisarle a Prabhu Om Kesavaya, a qué hora podría Usted?. Muchas Gracias,

   Su Sirvienta,

    Dhanistha devi dasi.

HpS - TlgaSP   pfanrh.  Desculpa demurra.  Por la manana estamos hablando en SKYPE con Om Kesavaya y fijando Sabado como 9PM para Gayatri Diksa.  Para nosotros va a ser 11AM.         Es muy satisfactorio para nosotros que Vd esta acceptando segunda iniciacion.
