Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna!!

Please accept my humble obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada,
it was so so nice to have you divine association here in mar del plata. Thank you
We understand our unfortunate situation struggling here in this material existence, but we feel happy we are in this ISKCON boat to go through it.  Today i was reading SB 1.13 dhrtarastra quits home, the importance of associating with sadhus, vidura, devarsi narada. 
We are very enthusiastic here, the community is growing very nice, many devotees taking shelter under iskcon gurus.
Prabhu Mahajan returned from india, he brought beautiful beautiful deities of radhika giriraj and big neem gaura nitai to install in the country.  Lot of work ahead
Personally family ok, manu wants to take his japa to school, job ok, 16 rounds, SB/BG in the morning, Prabhupada lilamrita in the evening. We want to improve.
Only by your mercy gurudeva.
Hae Krisna!!
Bhakta Nicasio.

HpS - Jaya!    AGTSP    Paoho.      I keep telling everyone about the interfaith dialogs in Mar de Plata.         We will put our news in a DTC.        We are having hard time answering the letters, as the time is at the "end" of the day, and by then we are to tired.   Then we were thinking, "We work HARD from 1AM - 9AM. So that's the 'end of our day'.   It's a fact.  After breakfast looking at the mail, is very natural, then,     Bonk,     a nap.

We will be back in Kolkatta with Dr. Samaresh in less than one month.  We will write about it in the DTC, but last time we were there was with you!

How are your Ayurvedic books that you acquired there doing?

Are you studying BhSastri with Mayapura Swami?

Our respects to Maha=jana.    We hope we can be of use to you. Even from a distance.    Actually, our days are numbered.  We should always plan on doing something that fits into the plan of Krsna's work.   The Rural Development is Krsna's plan, not ours, no?

Dear Maharaja

Wonderful as usual to receive you latest news and Kapi Dhvaja. We are having trouble keeping internet contact going due to the loss of our laptop two weeks ago. (stolen). Here in Montreal Temple devotees remember you fondly. Rama Keshava among them. We had a bhajan-singing class with great Indian devotee and reached the outskirts of Vrndavana once more. More devotess want to join for music with this fallen jiva and we just keep thanking the mercy of the »Lord and all Vaisnavas. We can`t get the links on this issue nor enter the blog from this poor Library computer. We`re trying to find out why the modern western mind left sacredness and God behind after Newton. Reading about paradigmatic shifts and its correlative epistemoligical, phenomenological and even ontological elements. We see science as a spoiled child who grew aiming at God since Phytagoras, Plato et all. to Copernicus, Decartes, Galileo and Newton. But felt to Maya and Ego. Afterwards.
We can;t thank you enough for your last answer and advise. I no longer fear the Universal form and understand better that part of the Gita. Govinda was all we needed to see.

hari, hari ...su much to learn and so much to un-learn
your poetry has it all compressed in a small package. We keep it in mind and also keep the flute playing as you do. Small steps from this donkey but it might save us from falling lower next birth.  *update* Maharaja in the event of a devotees music group would you kindly allow us tu use some of your poetry as lyrics ?    Thanks again for your precious time and have a wonderful time in Peru !   happy to read about your programs an activities in Chiclayo ! 

a most fortunate nobody

HpS - ASA  ---   AGTSP     paoho      Thank     you      for     your      letter.     97% less mosquitos, but even one can cause you pain.    Which is why we should never think that our littl effort to fight evil has no result.     As far as we know it's fine to use Monnkey and Piggy's writings for any purpose.       It's interesting that as we refrain from getting involved with gratifying our itching genitals, then we get a tangible reward in the form of not being deeply disturbed by mosquito bites.

What is your work, daily schedule?      Chant Japa everyday???

Por favor acepte mis mas humildes y respetuosas reverencias a sus piecesitos, todas las glorias a srila prabhupada!

Todas las glorias a Sri Sri Radha Madhana Vihari!

ASA - Jaya!    Madan-bihar!   Jaya, Srimati Radharani

Espero se necuentre muy ben y feliz en chiclayo , peru, que hay pasado hermosoa dias con los devotos y las deidades quee xtraño tanto. Tengo 8 meses de embarazo y me faltan aprox 4 o 5 semanas para que nazca nuestro devotito. Le pido por favor Sus bendiciones para que sea un parto natural y conciente de mi señor Krsna.

Queria hacerle unas preguntas: Los dias como rama Navami, Gaura Pournima, Janmastami, se deben hacer Ayuno de granos, es decir se debe romper el ayuno con prasadam de ekadasi?

ASA - Todo lo que podemos entender nosotros es un debate en ISKCON.  Yo de visto una carta de Prabhupada (copia) donde dijo con granos, puede romper, pero otro no.   Como yo entiendo en India toman todo samosa, pakora, todo en la fiesta cuando rompen.     Pero, claro es mas suave para el cuerpo romper con ekadasi Prasadam.

Para una persona embarazada ¿ debe hacer los ayunos hasta la puesta de sol por ejm en rama navami o hasta la apricion de la luna en Gaura pournima o por lo menos hasta medio dia o no debe hacerlo? ¿ como es en este caso ?

HpS - Puede pregunta  unos buenso grhasthas . . .

¿Comer fideos comprados en supermercados es como comer pan hecho por no devotos? cual es la diferencia si  que hay?

ASA - Si, no es bueno!   Arroz cafe es la misma tambien.  Pero avena plano es la misma.   En Italia, Argentina(?)  Has su propio pasta.

Seguro paso una hermosa fiesta de rama navami en chosica, por favor reze por nosotros paar pronto poder ir y tomar asociacion de las deiddaes y los devotos, gracs por sus respuestas, ahora camino con dificultad, casi no salgo de casa y no escribo seguido. el nombre krsnaRam es en honor al maha mantra: hare KRSNA, hare RAMA  y Gopal en honor a gopalito que sta siempre con nosotros, son nombres separados, o tal vez podria ser solo krsnaRam y alguna sugerencia suya ,mis padres ahora s encvuentran en dificultades fuertes de relacionamiento, asi que no hemos preguntado a ellos, necesitamos estar muy tranquilos ahora sobre todo.

Muchas gracis por sus respustas, que krsnita lo proteja en todo momento! Extraño mucho Su asociacion!!

 Su discipula que extraña ver danzar sus pies, que me inspiran en todo momento: Radha japa prati jalpa dd.

HpS -  O.K.  Buena suerte con su parto!    Buena suerte.   Gran responsbilidad.  Krsna ayuda.   Cual quiere forma del nombre esta bien.  Lo que piensa el Papa!

HpS - Jaya.   AGTSP   paoho   So, nice to get letter from you.   The more we read Srimad Bhagavatam with enthusiasm, the more we find all types of obstacles and examples of how different people, Sages of Niamisaranya, Daksa, Kardama and Devahuti, are reacting to them.  Then we can make advancement.  We can surpass these obstacles with good knowledge.  If we are sincere Krsna will also give us all knowledge just from Kirtana, Japa!
