Dear Maharaja

This is an update from my previous letter.  Today I tried something to begin fixing japa issue. Woke up at 6:00am, went to park near by (looks a lot like Central Park in NY) and chanted(sung) the Holy names for an hour.  Went back home cleaned house and recorded guitar track for maha-mantra song (Radha-Krsna Temple - George Harrison style)  then read Iso and went back to park for more solo sankirtana, chanted with small karatalas for 40 minutes.  Felt really good.  I plan to keep this as part of daily schedule.  Need lots of will power and mercy from the Lord !   

eternally grateful

Raul

HpS -  Jaya!  We wrote to you in another letter also!    !!

Hare Krishna Gurudeva, I´m Ignacio González from Viña del mar. I write on behalf of the spiritual brothers here in Valparaiso (3).

In the last letter you were asking about Carlos Bustamante, he works in Santa Maria University.  We were thinking that since we work last year with Carlos Bustamante in comparative literature (Hamlet v/s Arjuna) we can do something in the same line, which could be the “Aleph”. If you prefer we can prepare the full presentation of the Light of the Bhagavatam (Paintings, video and symposium) to do it in this university instead of the Aleph.

What did you think about the aleph? it`s a good material? If you liked we can prepare some first version of power point presentation that you can, later, improve. Good idea? If you like it we will work this year in Valparaiso with The Aleph and the Light of the Bhagavatam.

Keep following the 4 principles and chanting 16 lousy rounds
Trying to serve you!

Ignacio

HpS - AGTSP!    Paoho.   We read the Aleph.  It has very strong feel of Argentina and the time and place.   It is like celestial sense gratification of some painters we know.  BBT artists copy their work.  But the comparisan with the Virata rupa is not much.  The "Aleph" is like Virata Rupa Darshana but without service attitude it will have very little effect on the person.  Borges is like a like a Mayavadi, Brahmavadi, who may become a devotee (we have this contamination also), but he is attached to celestial sense gratification, and that is about all there is to say.  More productive might be the Phaedo and the Light of the Bhagavata!  Have you read it?  The St. Bernard's commentar on the Song of Solomon and the LOB.  Have read that...?

Hare Krishna Maharaj.

Please accept my humble obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

By Vasihnava and Krsna's mercy, I'm still continuing my sadhana, study of Bhakti Sastri. Continuing to have your association in the medium of your notes, through your disciple. Thank you so much Maharaj! In our BhaktiVriksha we are discussing NOI.  You're one of my most inspiring person in making me take up the Upadesamrta seriously.  Whenever I hear or read about you or your realizations, I know the path is far yet reachable if I follow the guru parampara. I'm fortunate to have your precious association in this life time. as the sastras say, lava matra sadhu sanga sarva siddhi hoy... that few little association with you in Boise has taken me long way in Krishna Consciousness. Still quite a far away from the Supreme Goal.

I'm trying and praying to Krsna to bring about the real change in heart.  Lots of impurities from many births and trying to japa more sincerely and attentively.  

We are eagerly waiting to see Chicago in your calendar. I constantly check your calendar to see if you're coming and have your association. 

Although insignificant, my sincere prayers to Nrsimha deva to protect you always Maharaj.

Your lowly servant

HpS - ASA   -   AGTSP.                Jaya!  So nice to hear from you, Mata Ji!    We are in Peru.   Hot semi-desert farm lands.  Mosquitos, canal water, rice, devotees!    We saw one Vice-Dean of Arquitecture in Chile. Born same year as us and we were so similar.   It was like Krsna was showing us what we would have beocme if we had not met Srila Prabhupada.   By SP's mercy we seem to be doing a little something.   We hope we can continue and become more pure.   What is the news from Chicago?  Kishor Kishori?   What are they doing???   Photos??

Dear Guru Maharaj,

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

I can't remember where you are now. South America perharps? You seem to be in many places at once.

HpS - ASA   -   AGTSP    paoho.   We are in Ferrenafe, Peru, with fan roaring and sill be bitten three diferent places by one determined mosquito.   Takes the blood. Shares with a female and produces more mosquitos!  Hare Krsna!!

In regards to your reply from last post, Yogendra and I started reading about Devahuti and Kardama muni. We found out some interesting things. In one of Prabhupada's purports, it is described what the roles of a husband and wife are. Something about one taking care of household affairs and another controlling some sense gratification. I have a difficult time remembering things I read. But we're slowly moving along with the pastime.

HpS - ASA - Jaya!   We remember things within the heart when we actually have to apply them!

Our Toronto Ratha Yatra is on the 14 and 15 of July. It would be so nice to have you here and all the devotees would appreciate your visit very much. 

ASA - Drat!   That is exactly in the middle of our visit to Houston.  Planned for two months now!!!

Also, Yogendra and I would like to ask for your blessings and your permission if we can get married in September. To be exact, the 15 of September. We have been taking some guidance and advice from Mother Praharana dd who is a god sister of yours and is part of the Grihastha vision team. She's very kind and super amazing. We trust her words and has experienced a lot in her life. You are invited to the wedding, of course!!

HpS - ASA  -   Jaya!   Please go ahead as necessary.  It is on our calendar!

I will keep this short. 17 rounds, 4 regs, some reading( I really need to regulate it), some sankirtan (althought any kind of preaching counts- as I have been told), temple seva.

Please forgive any offenses I have comitted.

Your aspiring servant,

Rasa-mandali dd

HpS - ASA --  Very nice...   Will you be doing puppet shows soon?
