Respondo a las cartas, aun hay demura a veces, pero a veces solamante es un hecho que estan perdidos.  Entonces despues de un rato tiene que enviar de nuevo!    No puedo decir mas.     Nunca debemos ser no animado.    Tenemos trabajo para Krsna.  Si estamos desanimado alguien va al infierno sin oir de Krsna!!!!  Siempre animado por cartas de devotos, guru or si no hay nada entonces apreciando la inspiracion del   S U P E R   A L M A !

Dear Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I hope this finds you in fantastic health.

Our wedding date has changed. It has moved to the 31st of August. Quite soon. 

Yogendra and I finished reading "The marriage of Kardama Muni and Devahuti" and I think we started "Devahuti's lamentation". It's ridiculous how slow we go. Anyways, we are getting there.

Maharaj, we have been offered an opportunity to serve at a brand new iskcon centre in Thunder Bay, Ontario. I am not sure of the details however, Bhaktimarga Swami suggested Yogendra and I to go there to receive training on running a preaching centre/ temple under the guidance of a senior grihastha couple. He really wants to go and we were told that we would have some freedom to attend school, work, etc. Is this Krishna's doing? Should we take this opportunity?

HpS - ASA ---  AGTSP   paoho   Sorry slow to answer!!!        Invitation sounds great to us!  Sankirtana!

And one more thing. I am no longer serving at the Bhakti Loungue preaching centre here in Toronto. It was becoming very difficult for me to perform my duties and Mangal Aarti helped me make a decision. Now I am back to full time temple services and it's working out fine. I'm chanting my minimum of 16 rounds every day, following 4 regs, attending morning program. I am also looking for a job to raise some laxmi for the wedding and our future home. Yogendra is also on the same program.

Thank you for your tolerance. 
your aspiring servant,
Rasa-mandali dd

ASA - Cool!    Hope you find a nice job where you can also do some preaching, meet nice people and invite them to K.C.

todas las glorias  a Srila Prabhupada

por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias

gurudeva gracias por responder mi carta es inspirador leer sus palabras

por lo visto el acto de no escribir seguido trae la consecuencia de que Usted no recuerde de mi...

soy un tonto realmente, ya que sin la gracia del maestro espiritual no se puede hacer ningun avance...

soy radhika prashad de Ecuador, me dio iniciacion en el 2001 en Guayaquil, vivi un tiempo en Bolivia cuando trabajaba con Prabhu Maturesh, ahora  estoy viviendo desde el año pasado en Sao Paulo con mi esposa.

ASA - Jaya!   Pensamos que era Vd!     Ya nos vemos en la Simposium de Japa mucho!

voy a mantener en conctacto mas constante esperando  recibir su misericordia

se despide su sirviente

Rpd

ASA - Tiene Hijos?   Son demonios o devotos o una mezcla?

Hare krsna maharaj,

agtsp,

pamho

we our report but mr . Robot did not like and discarded it. So we are writing it again with less details. Here is our reportfor last one month, though we promised you to write fortnightly

ASA - Tom Brown (MONKEY) - AGTSP   paoho  Just as much "pleasure" as you "enjoyed" you will have to "suffer" that much "pain".

ASA - Arjuna is the example.  His intelligence was purified by hearing from Krsna and then his senses were enlivened to fight!

ASA - Jaya!   AGTSP. We have to become perfect before we die or the witch will claim our soul for her service and we will be lost!

1. we broke one reg of ill sex consciously[25 days back].

2. We ate unknowingly sausage [in 22 hr train journey] which had garlic & onion, now we need to read contents before taking the food stuff from outside

3. our mangal arti attendance has decreased from 70% to 40% majorily due [as we understand] to

   i. sleeping late and doing some service or work

   ii. we feel half dead most of time, our physical energy seems reduced a lot- you once told that when you feel such drop of energy you derive energy from intelligence, can you tell us how to do the same? We think our old age has started.

4. on average doing 16 rounds, some times 13 but we cover it up next day

5. we delay our chanting manier times so that we chant with quality therefore on average we complete rounds by 2pm.

6. We feel more absent minded & tired these days, due to want of sufficient amount of prasdam[ we try to eat prasadam only]

7. observed ekadasi fasting – but foolishly did not chant extra rounds

    

   i guess this is enough from half efficient mind, we wait for your responses.

   Thanking you very much for your mercifu association

    

   trying to be disciplined by you,

   Bhakta I.

Mis reverencias a Srila Prabhupada

Mi querido Gurudeva.

Muchas Gracias por sus indicaciones; Usted una vez me dijo que su memoria a corto plazo estaba fallando, y mi mail es dificil que lo lea aun, por que comprendo que esta muy ocupado, le adelantare algo.......

Usted me dio refugio en Mayo del 2010, tengo un hijito de casi 5 años... estube alejada por año del templo y de los devotos, quizas me ubiera iniciado el año 2011 en su visita pero yo no estaba.....

Creo que no me la pude con todas las dificultades que se presentaron,y ademas creo no haber estado preparada.

Hoy en dia estoy dispuesta a servir a sus pies de loto,y complacer a Sri Krishna,pase lo que pase.

Estoy a full haciendo servicio con gran placer,estoy feliz de servir a Krishna con todo mi corazon,por que mi vida sin El fue un desastre y vacia!.

Usted en su carta anterior me dio instrucciones de cantar mis 16 rondas entuciastas,seguir estrictamente los principios,pedir buenos consejos a algunos buenos devotos.

Creo que todo eso lo estoy cumpliendo,y gracias a Krishna estoy cerca de muy buenos devotos.

Le agradezco mucho su tiempo y su comprencion ya que soy un alma caida y llena de pecado,esperando verlo muy pronto aca en Chile y tener su hermosa asociacion.

Mis reverencias a sus pies

All Glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to Hanumat Presaka Swami<o:p></o:p>

Please accept my most humble obeisance<o:p></o:p>

Hare Krsna Gurudev, I wish that everything is working just fine and your health is stronger than yesterday and worse than tomorrow. My name is Ignacio González, a dumb teacher from Viña del mar. <o:p></o:p>

In the last letters that we have exchange you ask for the opinion of Vanamali and her father, Carlos Bustamante and Rodrigo, the poet. So we arrange a meeting to discuss the topics of the conferences to make here in Viña del mar at the Santa Maria university (Carlos ‘University). 

Everybody was really enthusiastic about the topics (Fedo and the presentation of the LOB), also we discuss the order of the presentation and then we vote. Results: We thought that start with Plato is better because is a good hook to occidental minds and then finish this cycle of presentations with the main topic that is LOB and the Vedic culture.<o:p></o:p>

We are already doing the arrangements to reserve the conference rooms at the Santa Maria University. There are more things to do that we will do it soon; we will do the same prasadam standard that we do last year, with candles, rented dinner set, flowers and origami.
Guru Maharaja, where can we get the pictures of the paintings of the LOB in a high resolution? <o:p></o:p>

Trying to serve you<o:p></o:p>

Ignacio González

<o:p>HpS -   AGTSP  paoho   Wonderful.    Sorry it has taken little long to respond. The pressure from Radhadesa, Manipur and Kolkata has almost killed us.  Yet, very good results.
Topics sound fine.
We already sent the art to someone there in Chile???    Rodrigo doesn't know?</o:p><o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p> 

Write to us at [email protected] and we will give you more information on source.

We get to the USA Wednesday and we can start to plan for Chile then.

Hari Bolo!
