HpS - AgtSP.

Paoho.

Thank you, AmD, and Mataji KDD for the WhatsApp background to this report which our disciple MDD asked not to be published.

We read it.

Very glad to receive it and don't know too much what to say.

• He said.
• She said.
• They said.

🐵 ???

...

..... We will send few words to your WhatsApp address.

Basic principle is that these disputes involving ladies and gentlemen should be discussed mostly with help from Grhasthas that they trust.

Can go to Sita Rama Laksmana Hanuman.

All we can give as Sannyasi is that perspective.

General principles.

Public discussion of stuff.

As Diksa guru: Chant 16-enthusiastic rounds daily and follow the four principles strictly.

¡Hare Krsna! Querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias

¡Todas las Glorias sean a nuestro muy poderoso comandante Srila Prabhupada y todas las Glorias a su Trascendental ejercito!

Querido Gurudeva, gracias por diariamente alimentar nuestro entusiasmo, para intentar contribuir en la misión de nuestro misericordioso Acarya. Gracias por mantenernos activos en esta colosal institución.

Oramos porque la energía de su cuerpo sea buena y este recuperándose de las alergias y esperamos que su trabajo en el blog no sea demasiada carga para sus ojos. ¿El clima en su región le permite continuar con sus caminatas vespertinas? Gracias por enseñarnos a mantener el balance en servicio y autocuidado. 🙏

Escribo como parte del equipo de ASA Carnaval, con nuestro reporte de actividades.

Durante esta quincena Sus Sirvientes de ASA Carnaval, estuvimos un poco ocupados y no tenemos mucho que reportar:

*Isvari Radha Mataji, Abhinanda Prabhu y familia se mantienen firmes con las transmisiones de las clases sabatinas, aunque algunas veces experimentamos dificultades técnicas. Gurudeva, en su respuesta a nuestra carta anterior usted dijo que tal vez podría enviarnos los enlaces al terminar las clases, si no es molestia creemos que seria muy bueno.

-Respecto a los proyectos de “Contribuir directamente en la misión de Srila Prabhupada”, tal como usted sugirió:

*Hemos invitado a algunos devotos con cualidades artísticas para realizar videos cortos que ilustren oraciones del Srimad Bhagavatam (Kunti, Gajendra, Etc) Esperamos también poder hacer animaciones con teatro de sombras o títeres. Por su misericordia, varios devotos se han subido al barco, solo que los artistas necesitan un poco de tiempo 😊  

*También estamos convocando a algunos vaisnavas para grabar videos cortos recitando Slokas, principalmente los versos de apoyo para estudiantes Bhakti Sastri. Y a otros para realizar lecturas cortas de pasatiempos de Srila Prabhupada.

*Aún estamos diseñando el proyecto de grabar pasatiempos del Krsna book, en estilo Radio novela.

Todas las propuestas anteriores requieren de tiempo para poder florecer. Vamos con paso lento, pero sin pausa, rogamos sus bendiciones y guía e invitamos a todos los que deseen contribuir de algún modo a comunicarse con nosotros.

OTROS

*Respecto a realizar lecturas de algunos de los libros de Srila Prabhupada. Tenemos conocimiento de que Mahalaksmi Mataji (de España) ha realizado un muy buen trabajo, con la autorización del BBT – España Aquí el enlace https://vrindavani.org/audiolibros

Por otra parte, Gurudeva, hasta ahora que usted ha sugerido el tema, me doy cuenta de lo poco que sé acerca del Sannyasa Dharma, parece que en el fondo tenía la tonta idea de “¡no me concierne!” y por lo tanto cuando leía al respecto, pasaba por ahí de forma superficial. Así que, para beneficio de todos, por favor permítame preguntarle ¿Por qué es relevante para todos, conocer los aspectos del Sannyasa Dharma? Y ¿A quienes podríamos recurrir para estudiar este tema en los significados de Srila Prabhupada?

Por ahora, ese es nuestro pequeño reporte, apreciamos que hay mucho trabajo por hacer, y por su misericordia sin causa nos mantenemos en la lucha. Muchas, muchas, muchas gracias por todo lo que hace por nosotros Gurudeva. 🙇

Siempre a sus órdenes

Su aspirante a discípula

Hare Krishna! Dear Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances

All Glories be to our very powerful commander Srila Prabhupada and all Glories to his Transcendental Army!

Dear Gurudeva, thank you for daily feeding our enthusiasm, to try to contribute to the mission of our merciful Acarya. Thank you for keeping us active in this colossal institution.

HpS - Same to you all!!!!

We pray that the energy in his body is good and that he is recovering from allergies and we hope that his work on the Blog will not be too much of a burden on his eyes. Does the weather in your region allow you to continue your evening walks? Thank you for teaching us to maintain balance in service and self-care. 🙏

HpS - We go walking. Yet is not too cold.

Allergy is very less but having fight with headaches, and some chest pains.

Krsna's arrangment, old age, pushing us to prioritize!

Just same for you, no?

I write as part of the ASA Carnaval team, with our activity report.

During this fortnight, Your Servants of ASA Carnival, we were a little busy and we don't have much to report:

*Isvari Radha Mataji, Abhinanda Prabhu and family remain steadfast with the Saturday class broadcasts, although we sometimes experience technical difficulties. Gurudeva, in his response to our previous letter you said that perhaps you could send us the links at the end of classes, if you don't mind we think that would be very good.

HpS - We have tried to access the Class History but it does not work for us! We tried contacting GoTo but could not get past the robot!

We hot notification on Yahoo mail of last recorded class and through that we were able to open the interface, but it was not (!!) good. Still, as you know, we sent what seemed to be the download link to you by WhatsApp. Please write here if it doesn't work.

-Regarding the projects of “Contributing directly to Srila Prabhupada's mission”, as you suggested:

*We have invited some devotees with artistic qualities to make short videos that illustrate prayers from Srimad Bhagavatam (Kunti, Gajendra, Etc.) We also hope to be able to make animations with shadow theater or puppets. By his mercy, several devotees have boarded the boat, it's just that the artists need a little time 😊

HpS - Contacting Jagat-pavitram Das?

*We are also calling on some Vaisnavas to record short videos reciting Slokas, mainly the supporting verses for Bhakti Sastri students. And others to do short readings of Srila Prabhupada's pastimes.

*We are still designing the project of recording pastimes of the Krsna book, in Radio novel style.

All of the above proposals require time to flourish. We go slowly but surely, we ask for your blessings and guidance and we invite everyone who wishes to contribute in some way to contact us.

HpS - Wonderful. Is so nice to just listen to SP's books some times. So, nice.

OTHERS

*Regarding reading some of Srila Prabhupada's books. We are aware that Mahalaksmi Mataji (from Spain) has done a very good job, with the authorization of the BBT – Spain Here is the link https://vrindavani.org/audiolibros

ASA - She is wonderful person. She makes the title "Mataji" equal to the title "Maharaja".

On the other hand, Gurudeva, until now that you have suggested the topic, I realize how little I know about Sannyasa Dharma, it seems that deep down I had the foolish idea of “it does not concern me!” and therefore when he read about it, he passed by it in a superficial way. So, for the benefit of everyone, please allow me to ask you: Why is it relevant for everyone to know the aspects of Sannyasa Dharma? And who could we turn to to study this topic in the meanings of Srila Prabhupada?

HpS - Bhagavata dharma is like the seed, growing plant, Kanishta, Madhyama... Adau sraddha, Sadhu sanga..

Varna ashrama dharma is that psycho social system that protects and accelerates the development of BDh. Like the Seed and Proper Soil.

So, we should all take advantage of B'cari, Grhastha.. Sannyasa. Visnu priya was just as good a Goswami as Lord Chaitanya.

She could not do the formal austerities of Sannyasa, but She dedicated Herself to living and preaching the Yuga dharma.

One grain of rice for each Maha-mantra.

Try to see how much is 1,724 grains of rice.

64-rounds of rice.

I don't know of any Sri dharma extract of SP's books. It is an essential project. Probably two, three big volumes would come out of BG, SB, CC.

In those there are the stories of the renunciation of Gandhari, Kunti, Devahuti et al.

For now, that is our small report, we appreciate that there is a lot of work to do, and by his causeless mercy we remain in the fight. Many, many, many thanks for everything he does for us Gurudeva. 🙇

Always at your service

His would-be disciple

HpS / ASA - Thank you! In just a few moments we will be in Nabadvipa with Nimai, Gadadhara, Srila Prabhupada et al?

Thank you!

We were just looking, agtSP, at our paper Calendar and then hoping, with some anxiety, to get this information.

We censored the Zoom details because it seems that sometimes demons have been crashing classes where we participate.

Yet, we see there is a nice poster attached with the information!

Holy Places are Important.

Your work is important.

By Srila Prabhpada's Divine Grace our work is being put to good use!!!!!!

🌴

.

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🏻

Please, accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

I want to ask for your blessings. In a few days I will travel to India for three months. It is the first time I go there.

HpS - AgtSP! Wonderful, yet hope that you go directly to our ISKCON centers in India, Bharata!

My plan is to visit Sridham Mayapur and Sri Vrndavana Dhama, visiting temples, taking the association of devotees there, travel the sacred pilgrimage places, and also participate in a retreat and some courses offered by the "Institute for Spiritual Culture" directed by Devaki mataji in Mayapur, as "Holy Name Retreat" and seminars on "Mentorship in Krsna Conciousness".

I have been listening to Devaki mataji's classes in the last year and I am very inspired by her association.

HpS - She is from Brazil??

Gurudeva, I would like that in this journey I become more mature as a person and as a devotee, and learn new things about spiritual life. May this journey gives me purification and learning.

Thank you so much for your mercy 🙏🏻

HARE KRISHNA!!!

Your aspiring servant:

Mitravinda devi dasi.

HpS - Thank you!

Hope you get this before you leave.

Traveling alone???

Expect Krsna to send many innocent people to hear about Krsna while you are in route.

Jahnava: 😄

HpS - No content!!

Hare Krishna Gurudev!

Gloria a Srila Prabhupada!

Gloria a Sri Sri Nitay Gourasundar!!

Cómo está usted Gurudeva?

Espero que se encuentre muy bien. Quería agradecerle una vez mas su perspectiva en relación a mi comentario en el taller de hoy sobre "Los problemas en los templos."

Vale aclarar que no tengo dudas que el proceso de Bhakti Yoga que Srila Prabhupada nos ofrece es nuestra entrada al Mundo Espiritual, entonces después de saber directa e indirectamente que tanto en los templos como en el entorno a los devotos existe abuso psicológico, físico etc. hemos consultado con profesionales de la salud mental (psicólogos que no son demonios) (hahaha!) que realmente existen técnicas para identificar a los psicópatas narcisitas integrados en la sociedad, por supuesto estas personas con trastornos de la personalidad están en toda la sociedad y se dedican a destruir mentalmente a sus víctimas y como le decía hoy, Iskcon, como institución, no está exenta de la presencia de estas personalidades. Entonces, la información que comparten estos profesionales de la salud mental, en forma muy seria, es la manera de que estas personas no se instalen en nuestras vidas (a través de mentiras, engaños, técnicas de manipulación de cualquier tipo, etc) y nos consuman nuestra valiosa energía. El doctor Iñaki Piñuel, la doctora Belén Tarnowski por ejemplo y muchos otros profesionales están haciendo un inmemso trabajo para que este conocimiento llegue a mas gente que es estafada emocionalmente, muchas de estas personas incluso llegan al punto de quitarse la vida debido a la presión mental que generan los PN (psicópatas narcisitas) Entonces, estos psicólogos están presentando simplemente las técnicas para identificar a estas personalidades y no permitirles que juegen con nuestra mente y nuestras emociones. Por supuesto tenemos un karma "que pagar", aún no llegamos a la perfección de la práctica de bhakti yoga en esta vida, pero en mi opinión, si este conocimiento llega a mi vida y lo encuentro lógico y acertado, por que no tomarlo y compartirlo? Es asombroso como estos psicólogos describen perfectamente el accionar de estas personas que se dedican a hacer bullying, mobbing en los entornos sociales, hogares, trabajos, instituciones de todo tipo. Ha sido muy triste ver tantas injusticias en distintos templos Gurudev, escuchar a devotos hablar de como se han abusado psicologicamente y hasta físicamente de ellos y no poder denunciar por miedo y cuando se hizo denuncia, se ha ignorado el hecho en cuestión. No veo absolutamente nada de malo en compartir este conocimiento Gurudeva, espero no cometer ofensa con esto, de hecho le permite a las personas tener relaciones sanas y vidas mas conscientes para continuar con nuestra práctica espiritual (en nuestro caso) que tanto nos cuesta mantener en standar. Disculpe lo extenso de la carta, gracias por escucharme y seguiré conectandome siempre que pueda al FMP. Que El Señor Krishna lo cuide de cerca. Por favor disculpe cualquier ofensa.

Jahnava Devi dasi.

Hare Krishna. 🙏🏻🦁🌺

--o0o--

AgtSP!! I think we may have answered this Blog Post before, but don't see it.

Hare Krishna Gurudev!

Glory to Srila Prabhupada!

Glory to Sri Sri Nitay Gourasundar!!

How are you Gurudeva?

HpS - O.K. AgtSP!!! Paoho.

I hope he is feeling very well. I wanted to thank him once again for his perspective regarding my comment in today's workshop on "Problems in Temples."

It is worth clarifying that I have no doubt that the Bhakti Yoga process that Srila Prabhupada offers us is our entrance to the Spiritual World, so after knowing directly and indirectly that both in the temples and in the environment of the devotees there is psychological, physical abuse, etc. We have consulted with mental health professionals (psychologists who are not demons) (hahaha!) that there really are techniques to identify narcissistic psychopaths integrated into society, of course these people with personality disorders are throughout society and are They dedicate themselves to mentally destroying their victims and as I said today, Iskcon, as an institution, is not exempt from the presence of these personalities.

So, the information that these mental health professionals share, in a very serious way, is the way that these people do not install themselves in our lives (through lies, deception, manipulation techniques of any kind, etc.) and consume our valuable energy.

Dr. Iñaki Piñuel, Dr. Belén Tarnowski for example and many other professionals are doing immense work so that this knowledge reaches more people who are emotionally scammed, many of these people even go to the point of taking their own lives due to mental pressure that generate PN (narcissistic psychopaths).

So, these psychologists are simply presenting the techniques to identify these personalities and not allow them to play with our mind and our emotions.

Of course we have karma "to pay", we have not yet reached the perfection of the practice of bhakti yoga in this life, but in my opinion, if this knowledge comes into my life and I find it logical and correct, why not take it and share it?

It is amazing how these psychologists perfectly describe the actions of these people who engage in bullying and mobbing in social environments, homes, jobs, institutions of all kinds. It has been very sad to see so many injustices in different Gurudev temples, to hear devotees talk about how they have been psychologically and even physically abused and not being able to report out of fear and when a report was made, the fact in question has been ignored.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with sharing this knowledge Gurudeva, I hope I do not offend with this, in fact it allows people to have healthy relationships and more conscious lives to continue with our spiritual practice (in our case) that we find so difficult to maintain standard.

Sorry for the length of the letter, thank you for listening to me and I will continue connecting to the FMP whenever I can.

May Lord Krishna watch over you closely.

Please excuse any offense.

Jahnava Devi Dasi.

Hare Krishna. 🙏🏻🦁🌺

---o'0'o---

HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, sympathize, agree, with your thoughts profoundly.

Of course, we amazingly got a first place Bachelor's diploma from the University of California in 1970, and nothing but continued development of that knowledge and perspective has been our participation in Srila Prabhupada's ISKCON.

To our mind, education in ISKCON in psychology, psycho-pathology, is needed from cooks, to GBC managers.

Even in our Yoga we go from the senses, to the sense objects, to the mind, to the intellect, to the soul. External related knowledge of psychology and sociology can be very useful.

Mental disease is like physical disease. ISKCON communities, official temples, have to know and teach their members how to deal with mental disease just as they teach them to deal with hepatitis.

There needs to be education and facility for psycho-pathology.

We are reading C. G. Jung now but have read so many other psychologists and cultural anthropologists. Srila Prabhupada's recommendation is to sharpen our intelligence on SB and BG and then explain the information and realizations of scientific community (eg. Psychology) in even a better way than they have. Then they will ask, "Where do you get this wonderful perspective?" and we can connect their work to our friends and institutions.

So, much more to discuss!

For example, DSM-R-5.

Yet Srila Prabhupada gave a "shortcut" method of determining who is a good psychologist:

How many times does S(he)it mention the name of God?

One Mexican lady in Berkeley (San Francisco) worked for the city. Several devotees went to her. We even recommend her to some.

She was very nice Catholic lady and understood Japa and Rosary, prayer, deities, very well, and used our Sadhana as regular part of her technique to help the devotees.

I personally saw how she helped one friend, Krta-karma Das, Cuban, who had subconscious traumatic childhood abuse complex that was leading to fall downs every two or three years.

Thank you.

Thank you.
