           AGTSP!

paoho.   1.48AM in the Ashrama.  We fianlly got internet Access.  Our health is about 70%.  Lot of stress from the progams and so many devotees for Rathayatra etc.   Fantastic Sankirtana!!!!       Ambassador of India innaugurated the first day of Rathayatra.   Monkey and Piggy in ecstacy.

   SO much help from Patraka, Arjuna, Lalita, everyone.   Candramukhi was pujari for Lord Jagannatha. 

  We did our Yahoo. mail.  Our eyes hurt.  We are 22 rounds left from our 34/day from yesterday.  Ha!     Ha!    Ha(re).     Keeping priorities in site!        Such nice, nice conversatins with devotees.           Also, exciting letters from the politics in Peru.  Keeps us awake.  Is so similar to what happened in Texas.

   We have not been able to contact Hari lila Das in Texas but go hold of Pandava and seems January USA calendar is pretty fixed.  NOw we can buy the tickets.   Looks like a short, overnight stop in Texas. ONe week in San Jose, weekend in Seattle and w week in Boise.

   Then in June long time in Texas and Mexico and less in Boise/SFO.

Our new reduced travel program.

              Oink!   Oinnk!                Today is Ekadasi!!   O.K.  Japa and get to the letters later.

Todas las Glorias al Sankirtan eterno de Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj, por favor reciba nuestras humildes reverencias y coordiales saludos desde aquí Chosica - Mandir.

Nuestro Servicio en el Pujari concluye el 8 de noviembre, para lo cual las autoridades del templo estan informadas. Creemos que el servicio en la cocina del pujari fue una buena experiencia para nosotros.

Ahora hemos tenido una conversación de Sankirtan entre madre Nadiya y yo;  vamos a hacer un Sankirtan viajero para la Marathon de diciembre, participaremos de la Marathon de Bolivia, nuestra fecha de viaje esta programada entre el 25 y 28 de noviembre, a lo cual también ya hemos hablado con Prabhu Om Kesavaya. 

También estamos en conversaciones con Prabhu Adveita sobre Sankirtan, esperemos se concrete los planes.

Estamos continuando el Bhakti Sastri con Prabhu Laksmana, creemos que es importante para nuestras pobres vidas.

Seguimos con lectura del Nectar de la Instrucción, Caitanya Caritamrita cap.8., 16 rondas de Japa, 4 principios, Mangal Artik.

Bueno Guru Maharaj nos despedimos, y nuevamente nuestras reverencias, Sankirtan por siempre.

Hare Krsna.

HpS - ASA -  Jaya!   TlgaSP...  Muchas Gracias su mensaje "Urgente".   Estamos pensando en un disaster, pero es bueno, noticias de Sankirtan viajer en Bolivia.  Muy bien,  Muy Bien.    Ya nosotros vamos al aero puerto para Sankirtan en Chile.    De una manera casi todo nuestra vida es un medio Marathon.            Tenemos que profundizar mas......   O.K.   Esperamos noticias de Vds.  La gente que Krsna envia para ser Sankirtaneros mismos.

all obeisances to Srila Prabhupada.
please master accept my humble reverence.

 
I understand that the moon is still in orbit, like the living when their activities are purified

this fixed in devotion, and is post as a portion atomic of Mr. .

but what I still do not understand is what happens to the soul in maya yoga while this is a shared dream, this sleeping soul is relationship with krsna?, like a perfect dream?, in full consciousness

hare krsna master !!

        ASA -  AGTSP  paoho.   Esteemed JR.  We don't understand your question in detail, but if you are asking what is like this dream of Maya. It is like being in a movie hall, cinema hall, together, no?  We are all absorbed in the movie. We are passing popcorn to one another but with almost no consciousness of our "real" life.  O.K?

hare krsna!!

TLGASP

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias Gurudeva.  cientos y cientos de veces mi alma honra su magnifica persona!

   Estoy nadando  buscando el barco de su misericordia...

   Reportando desde mexico su sirviente sacinandan das, saliendo a sankirtan distribuyendo libros en los buses, cantando rondas y leyendo el canto 9 (Ambarish Maharaja)-tambien el yatra esta saliendo a maha harinam los sabados, como 70 devotos!

    Creo que se debe  ser como  el general de un ejercito, con conocimiento,  fuerza, inteligencia, comprencion, sadhana, buenas rondas. nectar-veneno, dulce-amargo-felicidad y tristeza una mezcla de muchas emociones!

 Sin embargo es mejor depender de la misericordia de Krsna renunciando al resultado, servir a su devoto,  Krsna ayuda en el grhasta asrama, gracias por su misericordia gurudeva.

soy como un bebe feliz cantando hare Krsna y haciendo sankirtan!!

     su sirviente eterno : sacinandan das

                HpS - Jaya!!!  Muy bien, muy bien!  Pero no podemo quedar como Bebes.  Tiene que madurar como Sannyasi o Grhastha cuando llega a 25 anos.    SB 1.17.38  !!  Jaya.  Vamos a Rathayatra en Santiago.

PAMHO AGTSP

      ASA - Jaya!   AGTSP!!!!   We had a dream last night with you in it!  Can't remember the content!

Dear GM Thank you for your reply. I do not have much to say about myself that is new or interesting or worthwhile for this blog audience to hear about. My sadhana is not as strong as it probably should be and I'm not fully up to the iskcon standard, but that does not mean I am not Krishna consciousness. Of course, I am still wrapped up in body consciousness to a degree. This seems to go with household life to some extent. I do some reading and listening to lectures most every day. I am currently reading the nectar of devotion.

ASA -  Do you have Waves of Devotion by Dhanurdhara Swami?   Availbable on internet.  He gives fantastic expalation of the Sanskrita words tat Prabhupada is translating so quickly.  Puts in grafic charts they show what Prabhupada roughly describes.  The NOD is an EXTREMELY analytical book.  Without Waves of Devotion I think only an advanced Paramatma realized person could get a lot a benefit from the whole book!

I listen to your lectures and some from a few of the other devotees in iskcon. I have been watching the memories of Srila Prabhupada on YouTube recently. The issue for me over the years have been to develop the intelligence to have proper faith. It is a very large world out there and there are many things which test our faith. So sravanam and kirtanam are important and I am hoping will develop more steady smaranam. I haven't any association to speak of here so I rely on lectures through the Internet and reading. Although I'm not a fan of speaking about myself (I am self-absorbed enough as it is), please feel free to ask me any other questions. I have a few questions: Is there a good site for accessing your more recent lectures over the last few years? Is it correct that there is not a reply button on this blog site and that in order to reply or respond to a letter or comment, I have to post a new letter? What is your current email address? By the way, if my English seems rather colloquial that is because I'm using Siri. YHS tcsd

            HpS - Jaya!     Yeah, I think the way it's set up you have to post a new letter.          We don't answer letters besides the Blog currently, except for specific things, like Itenarary, Bhakti vedanta College, etc.   If you'd like to write about a more confidential topic then you could write to Monkey's Mail Bag at [email protected] we usually get all the mail from him after he "chews it over".     He is a very tight lipped guy.

We are running to the airport now!        I have to aske Srinivasa Das if he has more current lectures.  Right now we are working on a serious book for San Marcos University....  See you in Chile!

 All Glories to Srila Prabhupada !

Please accept my humble obeisances

Dear Maharaja

We are always grateful to receive an answwer from you, we know how much each letter takes precious time and what precious every letter you write to us is.  We are fortunate to have had the mercy of serving you in the past and have an association with  such a pure devotee of Krsna and disciple of Srila Prabhupada,  this is beyond luck is pure mercy from The Lord.   The Kapi Dhvaja is full of news and ispiring teachings.   Your eyes and hands have been working tiresly on this program and many more.  Panchatatva  ki  jaya ! 

You are right when you say the raditions are build and passed on orally.  We are trying to put our breath to the service of theLord by learning devotional ragas and singing them, oue eyes to read Prabhupada`s book and admire the deities, our mind to filled up with the teachings and lilas of Lord Caitanya and his associates, we consider you one of them serving Srila Prabhupada.  Our book found interesting dramatic center in one of your lectures in Catolica University in `99 probably, we have the video and we received the mercy of translating live.  So much we`ve received from you, again thank you !   The book is called The Infinity Lotus and deals with the journe of a very young guy who slowly and with the help of Siksa Guru discovers bhakti and finally  Bhagavan.  We are using the theme of  begining from the most pantheistic side of the Vedas with their demigos and  building up towards Purusotama - Adi Purusa  Govinda.  

amazing news from Peru !     Chiclayo, The jungle,  New Vrndavana everywhere...

your humble servant
