AGTSP.... (paoho)... Here we are in Boise, Idaho, New Bihar-van, suffering and enjoying. It is 4.02AM Mountain Time. We have chanted 20-rounds since 1.30AM. Mangala arati is 6AM. It's 15-degrees below freezing. We some terrible dreams from all the social stress of dealing with devotees emotional problems and anger. However, that also seemed to give us clear conscoiusness of how to deal with the problem.
Basically we have to chant Hare Krsna ceaselessly. What every other action is approved by the chanting then we can add it, a vase for the flowers.
Anjana Suta Stuff is going on O.K. ABC Branch management, writing, itenarary. Basically we chant and then whatever ideas, plans come they are nice, and then we can jot stuff down for the Calendar.
O.K. We answer some Blog posts and get ready for our class on NOD2 at 6.45AM. Thank you.

P.S. Look for "waterfall" on the Youtube and you get very, very nice video of a waterfall. The sound is nice. Maybe the breeze blowing Krsna's hair, the grass in Vrndavana, is like that.

AGTSP paoho. This has crashed three times! We are in Boise. Our hearing a little deaf. Snow and ice here. Below freezing all day. Devotees nice. 20-new B'caris, so lots of introductory preaching. Still seems time for writing will be O.K. Internet and robots like 87% perfect, so Japa Joe at 1.30AM Boise time should be a go for tommorrow morning. Hare Krsna.

Thank you! Sankirtana!

<ins style="font-size: 16px;">Mi querido señor</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">hoy es el trascendental dia de su aparicion,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">y estoy pensando q ofrenda puedo hacerle?, </ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">cuando SS ya lo tiene todo, que puedo brindarle, el intento hasta podria ser una ofensa,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">pues yo soy el que necesita de UD, un gramo del polvo de sus pies de loto es sufisiente</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">para remplazar las toneladas de polvo acumulado por vidas en mi corazon.</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Entonces q puedo ofreserle yo?</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Cuando las escrituras hablan de que personas como Ud ya cuentan con la joya mas valiosa </ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">del mundo material el amor puro a KRSNA y son muy raras de conseguir, Ud no necesita nada de mi.</ins>

Quisa acaso le daria mi desesperacion por servir a la pareja suprema,

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">pero es tan superficial, envanecido por el intenso deceo q tengo por servir a mi ego</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">que seria como ofrecerle un baso de agua sucia,<img alt="" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/26.gif" title="" /></ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">o quiza seria mi libre albedrio, pero es tan caprichoso en probar constantemente</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">el excremento del disfrute materia que no seria mas que una carga en su trascendental servicio.<img alt="" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/56.gif" title="" /></ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">¿como un burro tan insignificante y con un ego tan gigante puede ofreserle algo mi señor,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">cuando es ud el que me da tanto, tiene el nectar mas delicioso</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">lo derrama sobre nosotros los caidos, sin restriccion alguna?</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">imposible, pero aunque se que es osado, me resulta dificil no intentarlo,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">porque es su amor <img alt="" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/07.gif" title="" />el que me mantiene en las calles purificando mis anartas,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">y en la mamaña me he empesado a despertar con un extraño deceo de despertar de este sueño desolador</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">gracias a su persistencia en japa joe,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">puedo tomar su asociacion y la de sus grandes dicipulos que si tienen un sincero deceo de servirlo.</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Entonces que puedo ofrecere yo?</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">despues de pensarlo he decidido entregarle a sus pies de loto lo unico que quiero en verdad</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;"> mi propia vida<img alt="" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/40.gif" title="" />,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">y aunque esta bastante contaminada le ruego la acepte y la ocupe en su servicio,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Ud que esta lleno de compasion por las almas caidas,</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">pues de no ser asi prefiero morir, ya que mi vida habia perdido el sentido antes de conocerlo, </ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">muchas gracias por volver por este caido sirviente.</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Todas las glorias a Srla Prabhupada</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">Todas las glorias a SS Hanumatpresaka Swami.</ins>

<ins style="font-size: 13px;">de su aspirante a dicipulo" B.B.T"</ins>

Vyasa Puja thoughts

12 years, 10 months ago by jaynityananda in Other

Dear Hanumatpresaka Swami Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances, and all glories unto Srila Prabhupada and the guru parampara!

Today i was reading your kapi dhvaja report with your considerations for this year. I figure it is quite sentimental to say, "great, you'll be focussing yourself more on this and less on that," but what do i know? It is virtually impossible for me to understand your reasons, and that is good, for a frog in the well should realize he is a frog in a well, and not able to fathom an ocean. One other thought is that i don't like to read how you are losing time and energy with things a secretary could do for you, but that you do yourself, for probably good reasons.

This year was a really intense year for me, and lots of personal changes happened. What helped me through was our meeting last may, and the short talk we had. How things unfolded since made me realize that my expecations and reality can be / are different, and that what lays before me is what i need to surrender to. Simple, no? I sometimes ask myself, "Am i doing the right thing, following Hanumatpresaka Maharaja?" But when i think deeper, i always come to the same conclusion. It is spiritual life in full effect. Bhajana kriya, anartha nivrti, not some made up ideas about them, but for real, dealing with the cards life deals. And having to handle my particular psychological disorders, which i'm sure you see quite well, with your degree in psychology. Now all i need is your mercy to come naked before you. Not crooked, but simple.

Yes it would be wonderful to be back on the list officially and receive formal initiation on Lord Narasimha's appearance. It is a great opportunity and prospect. The world needs it's dr Frogs to come out of their well, and join the dance! I have not understood my real value very well yet, so i need time to be fully usefull as a soldier. But i feel all works out in time. You must have seen this in ISKCON yourself, after almost forty years.

There is one thing i'd like to propose to Uncle Gismo, please consider. Your blog is wonderful, always to look out for, but i miss to hear from you. Therefore, would you consider purchasing a recorder with which you record your classes? There are only a few recordings available online, while recording is pretty easy and iskcondesiretree can host practically for free for everyone to listen. I'm sure that if you make a purchase and post the cost in the next kapi dhvaja, that many are happy to help fund it, me included. It's a bit of a lousy request, to suggest this way, but i'm not affluent enough to just wire you money so you can buy one. Anyway, i hope you feel for the idea. I would be glad to be the one who polishes the classes and uploads them on desiretree, if you upload them unpolished on, let's say, Mediafire, a free online storage site, or i can fund an online personal storage space as an alternative. That is a simple solution with relatively little requirement from you, and i'm enthusiastic to do it.

HpS - ASA - jaya. maybe you have more mental problems than us, or we have more mental problems than you, but the conclusion is that it would be hard to live off the difference! AGTSP!!! Are you getting 16-4 done daily? That's the standard. Then after one year you can become formal Student, first initiated, in Lord Gauranga's School for Wayward Boys and Girls!!
We got an Olympus something somthing, so we could record some lectures that we give, but then how do we send them to you? We have Yahoo.com account but that is like 20MB limit???

So, i'm looking forward to keep following you and see what's next on this journey. I feel there's perhaps too little glorification in this letter, but rather this than being overly sentimental. I'm learning the art. Thank you for picking me up from my cesspool maharaja. Please accept me.

An aspiring servant,

Richard van Dijck.

HpS - NIce letter! But main thing we want to know is about you. Are you in the basic sadhana groove and going to complete six months by May?

Jay Radha Madhava ki jayy!! Happy Vyasa-puja .

nama om vishnu-padaya krishna-preshthaya bhu-tale

srimate bhaktivedanta-svamin iti namine

All glories to Srila Prabhupada .

Please accept my most respectful obeisance into you lotus feet.

Dear Gurudeva... I want to apologize with you because i didn't send you my sadhana's report but i will do my best and again start to do it.

Happy vyasa-puja!!! Happy birthday!!! Feliz cunpleanhos!!! Jay Srila prabhupada ki jay!! I’m very fortune to have such a spiritual master and by Krishna’s mercy i got you and i am so happy for that.

By your mercy i will advance in the science of Krishna consciousness because you are very expert and advance. I want to learn how to serve Krishna and his devotees and you are the best example. That’s why I took shelter in you lotus feet because you are already with Krishna. You know this science perfectly and you are very dear to Him.

Now by you mercy I’m doing this bhakti sastri’s course and i like so much because I’m learning a little bit about the supreme personality of godhead, Krishna and by the mercy of Srila prabhupada and his books we can learn and advance in devotional service very easily and by practicing devotional service gradually as you say we can get prema-bhakti. I always remember when I asked you for blessing for study bhakti sastri you told do it for Krishna. “Krishna is so merciful.”

I want to be sincere with you. I’m very fallen and I don’t understand so much the science of Krishna consciousness but i just need take you instruction for develop my practice in Krishna consciousness but I need you because I need to qualified myself by your instruction.

When I’m in difficulty… i just think in you and automatically Radha and krishna picture come to my mind. Please Dear Gurudeva forgives me for commit so many offends to you and I’m not good disciple. ..Sometimes i don’t write to you frequently but I want to let you know that you are very special for me and i remember you all the time because i feel a little bit love for you.

I have picture of Radha Madhana bihari, Radha Madhava, Panca tattva and Nrisimha deva and also I have your pictures and my family’s pictures posted on the wall of my room. I pray every day for Krishna’s mercy and Krishna’s protection. All of you are my inspiration for keep in Krishna’s consciousness.

I always remember that you say to your disciples “Wake up for mangala artik and chants your 16 rounds”, I still working in that and one day i will get a perfect sadhana and I have so much desire for get it.

For speak about your qualities there is not end.

Thank you for give your time for all you disciples and take care of them.

Jay krishna-prema!!

Vanca kalpa…….!!
