DTC (Mo/20)

AGTSP   paoho......    We came to Franklin!     Our sever heart arhythmias stopped after lunch.  Maybe we just had a salt shortage.   Pulse is pretty regular and strong now, but we still have some chest pains on the left side.  Maybe just left overs.

Hari Bol!

Hari Bol!

How much longer do we have?    Do you see signs of leaving soon?   Makes you think what you are doing should have a lasting content to it. You won't get a chance to do it again.

Here is nice letter and our answer from/to Partha sarathi Das.

 
PSD- Pamo agtSP! JAYA!!! Hope your well. Sounds like an amaing program!!! Wish I was there with you. What kind of cake was it? Did monkey and piggy get a piece? Yes the mind brings problems. But Krsna always arranges nice memories at the time of death for his devotees. A friend of mine your godbrother HG Syamlal Pr. has two brain tumors, cannot remember anything but Srila Prabhupada.... so lucky in my opion. Guess this is what we strive for at the time of death, just remember our spiirtual master, and in that way, we are remembering Krsna through His representative.
 
Just gives more impetis for going home this life. Who wants to stay here? More important to bring people with. Funny thing in Brhat Bhagavatamrta, when Gopal Kumar reaches the abode of Maya, the worshipable Deity is Krsna as Mohini Murti..... he is asked if he wants to do puja... and says no, and prays with all his heart... interesting that the last place to stop before Godhead, the worshipable Deity is the Supreme Lord in His form as a women???? What do you think?
 
I know Misra Prabhu, he is wonderful. Sure I can help him if he wants. I am not so advanced, but will try. I thought you were printing our last email exchange to your blog, I didn't see it. If not, you can print this one.
 
Sankirtan is going well, did some Kazak BG's the other night after I gave a short class. Today giving a sankirtan class to 200 Devotees.. pray for me it goes well...
 
Here are 2 nice verses:
“Victory ! Victory ! Victory !

I behold something wonderful: all the inauspiciousness of the living entities is destroyed, no one is going to hell, Yamaraja has no more work to do and the effects of Kali yuga have ceased to exist. This is because all over the world an increasing number of Lord Visnu’s devotees are singing His names while dancing and playing musical instruments.”

Nammalvar, Divya-prabandha, Tiruvaymoli 5.2.1
 
 
 
 
kalyananam nidhanam kali-mala-mathanam pavanam pavananam
patheyam yan mumuksoh sapadi para-pada-praptaye procyamanam
visrama-sthanam ekam kavi-vara-vacasam jivanam saj-jananam
bijam dharma-drumasya prabhavatu bhavatam bhutaye krsna-nama

"May Sri Krsna's blessed name, which is a reservoir of all joy and auspiciousness, the destruction of Kali-yuga's sins, the most purifying of all purifying things, the saint's food as he traverses the path to the spiritual sky, the pleasure-garden where the voices of the greatest saints, philosophers, and poets play, the life of the righteous, and the seed of the tree of religion, bring divine auspiciousness to you all."
 
HpS -- Jaya! AGTSP paho. We were going to post the last letter but got drowned by many things. So we for sure post this one, but if post directly there then we can answer there and is more secure. There are several Marathon winners on the Blog. Of course, most of them speak Spanish but that should be a problem. We got a fire here!
Today we finished updating our Pada-padma Chapter Study Guide for the Bhakti-vaihbava program that is trying to get stared in Houston. Was lot of work with the Study Guides are quite nice now. Useful. The updated version is at: www:jayarama.us/archives/pdp-csg.doc
 
O.K. We go to the Blog and post this!

Hare Krsna,
Please accept my humble obeisances,
All gloies to Srila Prabhupada,

Estimada Radha japa prati jalpa dd, ante todo felicitaciones por su hijo, saludos al gran señor padre Franco de mi parte por favor.
El ayurveda no recomienda el ayuno a madres que estan en periodo de lactancia, en mas la lactancia es un proceso purificatorio en si mismo, el cuerpo eliminara toxinas en la leche, por lo que es muy impotante que ud tenga una dieta bien saludable. Sobre todo deben predominar las preparaciones Kapha, basicamante cerelaes integrales, legumbres y hortalizas ricas en hidratos como papa, calabaza, batata y zanahoria cocidas. es muy importante que consuma frutas y vegetales crudos a diario y un vaso de leche caliente con anis y miel, eso fortalecera su leche y a su niño. DEBE estar bien hidratada, mucha agua tambien.
Considero que la mejor ofrenda que ud puede hacerle a krsna es educar bien a este niño para que se vuelva un gran devotos del señor y asi el podra ayunar hasta la medianoche cada janmastami .
Por favor ud puede escribirme cualquier inquietud o consulta al facebook. nicasio nutricion
Gracias querido Gurudeva por la posibilidad de ocuparme en servicio a los vaisnavas, su misericordia no tiene limites. Su asociacion es mi fuerza.
Su aspirante a sirviente.
Bhakta nicasio.

Please accept my humble obeissances

Dear Maharaj

We hope this letter finds you in better health.

   ASA -   AGTSP!!!!!       If you read the DCT today, Su/19th, you will see that your hopes have not been realized.  Brother Ass is with severe heart arhythmias.  Yet we are always, easily becoming Jolly, and these death notices push to do the essentials, which gets us in good Goloka consciosness.  Everything in Goloka es ESSENTIAL!   Thank you!

We are always remembering your inspirational life and asking Lord Hari to keep you strong.  Always in touch through the Kapi Dhvaja.  We spent Jammastami at the ISKON rural community in Maryland,  great, awesome experience.  Playing flute close to the cows, surrounded by trees, doing service, chanting japa etc.  We're in Washington DC for a month visiting family and friends.  Also, we're still trying to get the music for Lord Vishnu recorded which has been hard to accomplish but we take it as a service now, so arrangements from above are keeping things steady although due to our fallen nature, slow.  We were at the Montreal Rathayatra; played flute and danced all the way to His final destination.

ASA - Goloka!!

We hope this will please Him. (we also played for the Radha Krishna deities in Jammastami in MD)   We are getting more focused and steady.  We also found nice association with Bhaktimarga Swami from Toronto who's crossing Canada on a devotional-pilgrim-trek.  [again!] We feel so blessed by the Lord that still wants us.  I'm happy to send you the link to our first demo devotional recording.  We promised to send it first to you and here it is.  (my service to Govinda and all Vaishnavas)  We recorded and played in a song by Janardan Das prabhu in Montreal.  http://youtu.be/vvEHGdM7hMg 

a pilgrim still on the road

   HpS - ASA - -   We have Peru Kena, Peru little high pitched flute and a harmonica in three different bags.  We have liked flutes since we were very little. It is wandering b'cari's harmonium.  Adjusts the prana, mood for us and others so easy.    We have been chastised for playing off key by one GBC but Tamal-krsna Goswami left his room and walked into the wretched B'cari ashrama where we had just arrived in Houston when we were playing and said that he had heard the playing and he had to stop everything and come see who was playing, it reminded him very much of Visnu-janan Swami, his cousin brother.

    The morning after Janmastami in Canada, Vancouver, everyone was sleeping late, recovering from 5,000 guests and there was a little, little corral right in front of the temple door where two little bull calves had been domiciled as part of the festival.  They were both sitting down chewing their cud and we began to play for them. After a few moments they got up and start to dance and butt each others heads!

   We were in the zoo in Lucknow (as tourists) and started playing our flute. The deer started to run in herd.  An old, old, grey haired chimpanzee came to the edge of his compound and sat and listened. When we stopped he slapped his thighs enthusiastically and swung both arms up two or three times.  So we played some more.

   Several stories.   Flutes are nice. All the cowherd boys have flutes.  Takes about 3-5 minutes for the flute to warm up.  Nice to play the same music with five or even twenty more flutes at the same time, with drums, and Hari Nama!!!!!

           Masculine and Femenine is eternal. Sanskrita Grammar is eternal. Flutes are eternal. Service of Srila Prabhupada is most eternal!

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

I just wanted to send you a letter saying thanks for helping me...

   .... Sorry for being offensive to you; I was just being sore over falling below my own expectations and those of others. Other times I'm sorry cause I was a little excited - maybe it's just puberty.   Hahaha...

But seriously;  thanks - things have been going great at my new house with my family, I wish we had finished our altar in time to invite you and all the Boise devotee's over for a home program.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP   pamho.  This is Reilley?   Yes, we were feeling a little sad that you didn't smile at us and say hello, but we kind of guessed what you were saying was happening.  Thank you for such a nice letter.
   Yes, we would have liked to see your alter! We steal ideas from other's altars to improve our altar.

I'll just accept what I've done is done and let it go. I'll continue trying to perform service for all the devotee's and practicing my 16-4.

Bhakta Reilly

HpS - ASA -  Jaya!   How's skool?

HARIBOL! CHILE!

Todas las glorias a Sri Sri Goura Nitai ! <img alt="heart" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/heart.gif" title="heart" />
Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!<img alt="" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/40.gif" title="" />

Por favor acepte mis más humildes y sinceras reverencias a sus piecitos de loto.

ASA  -  WHoop!          WHOOp!       Oink.  Oink.              TlgaSP.

Camila, 19 años, estudiante Trabajo Social, Chile. 

Maharaj, espero que se encuentre mejor de salud, he leído en el blog que el corazón ha estado un poco agitado y que ha tenido malestares...ojalá se esté mejor y que el Señor Nrsimhadeva lo esté cuidando mucho. <img alt="" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/04.gif" title="" />

ASA - Pues no es mejor.  A veces poco pero.       Pero feliz.  Senor Nrsmhadeva siempre misericordioso con nosotros.   Ya tenemos arythmia constante.   Hmmm?

Janmastami y Vyasa-puja de Srila Prabhupada, estuvieron hermosos!  los devotos se esforzaron bastante en las fiestas, para complacer a Krsna, SP, los devotos y visitas :) 

ASA -  Unos buenos dramas?

Anteriormente le dije que las rondas no han ido bien, pero ahora están mejorando,  de a poco el entusiasmo vuelve.... !  Desde la última vez que le escribí han habido muchas cosas que me recuerdan a Krsna en el día y me hacen querer cantar sus santos nombres, PREDICAR es muy importante<img alt="" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/36.gif" title="" />, aunque sea sólo un poco.

ASA - "Un Poco".   Hemos visto que Krsna puede hacer cosas inmediable, GRANDISMO, con solamente "un poco" predica.  Haz lo que puede!!

Mi familia está caada vez más entendiendo Conciencia de Krsna y el Vegetarianismo :) ! 


Dejé de hacer el servicio de las guirnaldas, me complicaban muchos los horarios, y mi desafortunada alma no estaba disfrutaba del todo el realizar ese servicio tan hermoso por sus Señorías Goura-Nitai...me apena mucho, debería volver a hacer servicio, ocupar mi mente en Krsna. 

La Universidad salió muy bien la primera mitad del año, aprobé todo...ahora me queda el resto, VAMOS! <img alt="" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/57.gif" title="" />

Maharaj, tenemos que primero orarle mucho a Radharani para que ella hable con Krsna y él pueda fijarse en nosotros? Radhita es la intermediaria? Quién es el intermediario? o nuestra relación con Krsna es absolutamente directa?

ASA - Primero decimos, "Hare", "Radhe" y pedimos a Ella pedir a Rama  y Krsna. Rama, puede ser Balarama es el Guru. Pedimos a Radharani pedir a Rama y Krsna occuparnos en el servicio de Krsna!

LeaBG 18.75.  Super explicacion de nuestra relacion directo con Krsna.   Puede seguir la enlace si quiere.

http://vedabase.com/es/bg/18/75



¿Cómo podemos mejorar en el camino devocional? ¿Cómo lograr ser un mejor devoto(a)? 

ASA - Upadesamrt Texto 2 & 3.  Esta realizando estas ensenanzas?  Si, hay mas.

Le doy muchas gracias por haberse dado el tiempo para leer ésta carta TAN larga, discúlpeme por ocuparlo en mis asuntos, sé que está realizando muchas actividades....lo siento Maharaj...<img alt="sad" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/sad_smile.gif" title="sad" />

Como dije al principio, espero que se encuentre mejor de salud!!!  HARIBOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!! <img alt="" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/40.gif" title="" />

ASA - Si es util tiene que compartir con sus siguiedores!

Sus Señorías

TLGASP y Sri Sri Guru Gauranga

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja

La última vez que le escribí, estaba esperando poder despertar a SS Gaura Nitai en casa y hace aproximadamente un mes, pudimos levantarlos con Candrabhanu. Fué muy lindo e inspirador, trato de hacerles collares y ahora les estoy terminando Sus kuntis. Me gusta cantarles, hablarles y hacerles masajes pero no estoy teniendo excelente sadhana en la mañana, me cuesta mucho despertar más temprano pese a mis intentos, mi excusa es el frío pero estoy mal en eso.

HpS - ASA --   TlgaSP  Pfanrh.   Es buen excuso.   Puede levantar. Lava la boca, manos, todo.  Toma un vazo de agua y sentir comodo abajo de su "blanket" y cantar buen Japa.  Cuando hay mas opportunidad tomar bano, si es horrible sufficiente con toila mojada y atender Sri Murti.

Los cuatro principios y el servicio de hacer berfi y sandesh para Sus Señorías en el templo están bien, cambié el servicio para los días sábados a mediodía y eso me está dando más fuerza e inspiración, ya que puedo escuchar bhajans y eso me ha permitido tener una mejor conciencia al servir.

Estoy leyendo Prabhupada en Venezuela.

Hace 2 meses íbamos en el transporte público con Candrabhanu y un señor llamado Óscar se puso a conversarnos, primero creímos que estaba borracho pero luego me di cuenta que no; nos conversó de sus hijos, de su vida de esfuerzos, creencia en Dios y de la tristeza por la muerte de su esposa. Él compró unos dulces a un vendedor y nos regaló esos dulces a Candrabhanu y a mí, le prediqué y le regalé un libro de Prabhupada, y él muy agradecido, prometió que lo leería. Al despedirse, lo hizo feliz y emocionado por ese encuentro y yo también me emocioné por la posibilidad de hacer sankirtana.

Aquí le presento a SS Gaura Nitai que tenemos a nuestro cuidado con Candrabhanu. Están en mi casa. Por favor deme sus bendiciones para poder servirlos de mejor manera a Ellos, a Srila Prabhupada, a usted y a los vaisnavas.

Espero que se encuentre mejor de salud.                                                                                Discúlpeme por favor si he cometido alguna ofensa.                                                               Acepte por favor mis humildes y eternas reverencias.                                                                   ss. Guna Manjari DD.
