All Glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Dear Guru Maharja.

First time in the blog. Very very bad :´(  I know. Finally, Now, i got your subtle messages in other media.

3 weeks ago, i finally finished university.

ASA - Aaaacha!     AGTSP        Conquerer of the Universe!

Was a real hell. But, formally, now we are journalist and we've a good documental about the troubles with the acces to university by students from public schools.

ASA - !

There are different people interested in our work (One of our two young main players, is vegetarian and likes Krsna Consciousness). Now, after mini vacation in the country, in Santiasco again :) ("asco" in spanish means "disgust" A pun)

There are plans about travels for 2013, but nothing confirmed. Really, now we are trying to find our sadhana, that has been lost for a while. Your inspiration has been very very important for me, the japa joe. Always i need your blessing. I'm realizing that alone, and without your blessing, i do nothing for my spiritual life. I am a little child, in spiritual terms.

On the other hand, devotees are agree that i'm charge of external preaching programs, as i used to. (passion, as always, but a little less).

We know about your health. So, here there is a pertinent adage: "Short but good". The idea is only two programs in every city, Valparaiso y Santiago. And travel to San Pedro, like you suggested to Ananda Vardhana recently. What do you think?

There are different people in the team, Vanamali, Ignacio, Rodrigo.

Respect to Santiago, we have an idea of the interfaith program with the enthusiastic jewish community, again. But, this time, we would be part of the organization. Our friend there, Yosef, is agree. He is an assistant of university professor who is researching the religion in Chile. And now, after our last interfaith meeting, he is including India influences.

The other details in the blog, also?

I'm so happy to have formal communication with you again.

Your aspirant servant

Yogini Ekadasi, 14th june 2012. Santiago, Chile.

HpS - ASA -  Jaya!   Four days ago!    We had to struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle, struggle to get the Damn Robot to issue even the most simple South American ticket.  At one point it had us leaving from Maimi for Nashville five hours BEFORE we arrived!   Neat trick, no?  Leave before you arrive!

O.K.   We HAVE a ticket from Nashville to Lima on the 7th of October with return on the 7th of December.    Of course, Rama vijaya in Lima. All are invited.
    We were thinking of three weeks in Chile.    Formally we are more based in the North like Gunagrahi Swami is more in the South.    The Phaedo and the Bhagavad gita. Rupa Goswami and the Modern Theater.  We are developing these.    They can all fit into LOB.           The main thing is not Where, When or What, it is Who.   Who wants to hear and chant with us. It may be a passion, but that's O.K.   It can be related to Krsna and then it become hearing and chanting in the mode of goodness.  Then it changes our character FOREVER.

So, concentrate on the audience more than the location or content!        Next we need to get the dates between 7Oct and 7Dec for Chile.    Yes, three weeks CHile, 4 weeks Peru (Bolivia), one week Ecuador (?).      Then next year start to stop traveling much!   Then  d i e  !

Hare Krsna Respected Guru Maharaj,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Refering your letter on 15 June 2012.

    HpS AGTSP!!!   Ha!  Ha!!  Ha.... HOw can it be that you have no one who wants to hear about you?  
   Krsna wants to hea abou yyou.   Mother Yasoda wants to hear about.  They WANT to hear about you,
   you rascal!   (Ha!   Ha!    HAW).  Because they, Krsna, want to play with you!

    Thank you so much Guru Dev for your love & such nice words. Thank you so much for your bless.
    This is one of best letter.

    Guru Maharaj, In company (where i work), some time i feel...people don't like me with 'Sikha'. So
    what you would advise.

your servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS -  AGTSP   pamho.   Hmmm.   I don't know the exact details.  Sometimes it is nice not to be liked by certain people.   Thieves don't like police.   Vibhisana said that living in Lanka as a devotee of Visnu was like living as a tongue surrounded by sharp teeth!!!  Have to move quickly.

Each situacion is diferent.

For Bhak.  Vedan.  Institute, Science Preacher, Prabhupada said that they could grow hair and wear suit and tie, but they had to use Tilak.

Ask other local devotees who have situation like you!

Hare Krsna Respected Guru Maharaj,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

ASA - Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

     All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Thank you so much Guru Dev for your love. So happy to see your letters after a long gap.
    Your every letters are my assets. I read many times.

    Guru Maharaj as you advised, i Will write mail to Hawaii director, Prabhu Ramananda Das for    your lectures. Mean while I will visit www.jayarama.us/kd/links/txt for link of website where your
    many lectures are available. Will also visit Srila Prabhupada's at www.prabhupadavani.org for
     your lecture.

    I have, your 103 lectures, which I had downloaded from different sites before initiation. but I want
    lectures, which you have delivered in Hawaii.

    I will search & write Hawaii director, Prabhup Ramananda Prabhu for your lecture and update you
    on the same.

your servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - Jaya!   AGTSP    So nice to hear from you, Prabhu.   Actually there is only one lecture. We all keep giving it over and over again and keep getting better at it. At some point we are actually liberated from the three modes by lecturing properly and then more and more advancement on our Lecture!!   You also improve your lecture.

Hare Krishna,

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

Reb and I have seperated. In my opinion, it wasn't because of just one of us. I exausted my efforts to make her happy and do compensate for any offense I have made. I wasn't able to show her enough affection to make her feel special. That was the root of her problem. So, ultimately I guess I accept all responsibility.

Your servant,

Bhakta Adrian

HpS - How can two flowers on the same tree be separate?   They may be diferently situated in relacion to each other as the breeze blows, but they are not "separated". It is just a matter of finding the root of our relationship to each other!

Hare Krishna Gurudeva, I hope that these words find you in good health. My name is Ignacio González and I`m from Valparaiso, Chile.

ASA - Jaya!   Bh. Ignacio.  Muy bueno leer de Vd.

I write to you to report about my daily activities. I have been chanting 16 rounds every day for maybe 2 or 3 years, lousy but getting better., Since I read about Jayananda Thakura and his Japa, I`m trying to get focus in the sound of every word.

I have been following the 4 principles for one and a half months. It has been hard but easier than in other occasions. I`m also trying to understand that it´s only because of Krishna and you, and that is not my merit, so I don´t get proud about it.

From april, 15^th we have been making programs for the devotees in our apartment, it is small but significant.

Trying to serve you

Ignacio

ASA - Very nice.   Chanting Hare Krsna but not following four principles strictly is like trying to build a fire but not sheltering it from the rain.   Ooof!     Yet follow them is different challenge for each of us.  For one person 1,2,4 are easy, but 3 is difficult.  For another 1,3,4 but 2 is dificult.  Judge your progress against your own advancement, how you are using your intelligence to solve the problem, step by step!
