Letters to the editor

Dear Maharaja;

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

Thank you for your valuable association through e-mail, personal association in Bhakti Vaibhava class and through study notes.  Maharaja on very first class (March 10, 2012), I humbly requested the few suggestions for the up coming calendar, at that time you told me that we will discuss the changes afterwards; unfortunately we didn’t got the chance to discuss the changes for the calendar.  Maharaja, I humbly request you to please discuss the following changes for the Bhakti Vaibhava calendar with the examination board and with Srivas Pandit Prabhu:

According to current calendar, Evaluation of Module 15 is on July 15^th; it will be big help if we can have semester Evaluation (similar to semester 1 & 2) on July 22^nd, so that we can discuss the complete Semester 3 Evaluation on July 29; similarly we can have semester 4 evaluation one week after the module 25 review.  The Semester 3 examination we can have on August 4, 2012.

We can have vacation from August 4 to September 3 (Labor Day).  According to current calendar, we will have 2.5 months of vacation after semester 4 – January 13, 2013 – March 25, 2013.  Because of leap year, next year the Gaura Purnima is in last week of March.  The one month break after semester 3 will help the student to finish up essays for semester 3 and we will have 1.5 month break instead of 2.5 month after semester 4.  Maharaja, to be honest with you many times due to hectic work load and due to family life it becomes very difficult for me to finish up one page essay every week; semester vacation helps me to finish up essays after the exam.

Maharaja, it is my humble request to you to please look at above matter.  I am extremely sorry for bothering you during hectic preaching schedule.  I hope this meets you in a good health.  Once again thank you for helping me to read srila Prabhupada’s books on regular basis

Your Servant

HpS -  Jaya!   AGTSP   pamho   So nice to hear from you.  OUr pace is just as crazy.     If we weren't so much engaged we would probably be waisting a lot of time.   It is impossible for me to consider the changes you are suggesting in my current condition.  I would have to look at the details on paper in front of me.  CUrrently it is 6.13AM.  We have 16 rounds done.  We downloaded 25 papers for this seminar with the Indian Museum.  We are in Dr. Samaresha's good house in Kolkatta.  We have answered all the Blog posts up to one week ago.  The internet is starting to get slow just now  That is why we had to adjust to doing this now rather than doing it during the day and havng more morning program.

So we are adjusting like that.

Rohini and Ananga worked a lot on the Calendar to try to make it as balanced as possible and they also don't think its perfect.

The changes you are suggesting are for July so it looks like we will have time to think about it when we get back to USA and stop traveling for three weeks in June  Jaya.   I think you are suggesting and extra week of Evaluation and Review at the end of the Semester .   That sounds nice.

If we cant do all the work we do what we can and then keep a record of what we have to do to catch up.

This is all learnging, so we can teach, Sadhana Bhakti in the modern world!

It seems that you are doing well!!!

OK.   Then we can discuss and plan when we have a desk in front of us in June!!

O.K??

HpS - ASA  -   TlgaSP    Pfanrh.  Si es casi imposible para nostros responder a cartas al Yahoo.  Como 500 cartas al mes   y todo otro.  Entonces esta blog is cierto.     En la comenza del NOI  Prabhupada dijo que tan pronto que estamos fijados en bondad todo com advanzar ba a ser obvio.  Entonces, si canta 16 entusiastas ronndas cada dia y sigue estrictamente los cuatros principios va ser simple entender cual es su servios.    Clara a veces Krsna misma no se que va a pasar, entonces actuamos acuedo de los que podemos entender y espero ver el resultado, adquierer mos conocimiento.

Canta Hare Krsna y pide a Krsna para inspiracion como actuar.

Sigue el consejo de Prabhupada en sus libros en terminos de sus dilemas.

Habla con 1,2,   6    buen devotos para consejo.

  1, 2, 3  va a tener buen comprehenion como actuar.  Jaya!

PAMHO! AGTSP!

1. The event about the philosophy of education we distributed 22 books, and 4 good contacts. Now P.Jagat and Prabhu Abhirama are organizing a inter faith dialogue to be made on May 16^th, at San Marcos.
2. In our study of Srimad Bhagavatam we are going through the 24^thpicture, and on Saturdays we are studying the 4^thchapter. There are many people who want to participate on this study program, we are thinking on the possibility to use webex.
3. Sadhana: we are trying to find a way to make sure, to help all the members of Sattva, to get up at least at 4:30am. In this way we will start our day in goodness, we will chant our rounds with enthusiasm, in order to advance and preach on goodness.

Thank you very much, Sattva

 ESPAÑOL:

1.- En el evento sobre Filosofía de la Educación distribuimos 22 libros, e hicimos 4 buenos contactos. Ahora prabhu Jagat y prabhu Abhirama están implementando el Dialogo Interfe para el 16 de mayo en San Marcos.

 2.- En nuestros estudios de La Luz del Bhagavata estamos en la lamina 24 y en nuestro estudio del SB de los Sábados ahora nos toca el Cap. 4. Como últimamente hay varias personas están pidiendo participar de este estudio estamos viendo la posibilidad de usar webex.

 3.- En cuanto al Sadhana estamos viendo de que manera nos aseguramos y nos ayudamos a que todos los miembros se levanten al mínimo a las 4.30 am, de esa manera todos empezamos el día en bondad y si cantamos nuestras rondas con entusiasmo entonces podremos avanzar y predicar en bondad.

 Muchas gracias, Hare Krishna

HpS -  ASA   ---  Jaya!!!!!!!!!!!!   Very nice.   Very nice.  Just catch hold of the elefant where ever you can and hold on.  Eventually every thing will get done in scientific proportion.   Just get up early, get your rounds done enthusiastically, have regular association to study and .....     it all will follow.  Become all auspcious!

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, AGTU, PAOHO ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Hope this letter meets U in really good health ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

We are working in our priorities ¡¡¡ always struggling with these... using our intelligence 

we are making our schedule¡¡¡ it starts with Japa joe¡¡¡ then work, then some reading, some pujari...

So we are going to make an effort in order to attend our BV group in Chosica evert friday ¡¡¡¡ starting next week maybe we won't be able to answer all the questions and have the essays on time BUT we NEED their association ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ PLus we do not want to bother M Yugala and Namacarya das.. besides it will be more complicated to try to find some time to study with both of them SO I guess it is better to make an effort and go to chosica ¡¡¡

We want to thank U all so much for being our source of inspiration thank U also so much for your association in LIma, Argentina, Chiclayo, CHosica ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ these are unforgettable moments that are treasured in our HEART for ever¡¡¡¡¡¡

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP,AGTU,PAOHO ¡¡¡¡ 

On April 23rd we had a very nice meeting with all our members in New Ksetra dham.

One Hanumatpresaka Swami’s suggestion for NIMSAR’s acronym is:

National Institute for Science Management and Religion

Everyone of us made an individual report let’s start with our president ¡¡¡

LAD had being helping the temple for almost 7 years in a row. And now he wants to be more active as President and help NIMSAR with the legalization issue, he wants to act in a more optimally. He is planning to establish one NIMSAR office at his house this plan will be executed in one month.

He also has meetings with Bhakti sastri tutors and he is also invited to young people’s programs.

Also one idea that he has is to establish one office of NIOS in Lima J

Yugala kishora dasi is being a Bhakti sastri tutor and Bhakti Vaibhava moderator she is very happy with this..

She has 4 Bhakti Sastri students

She also continues doing Sankirtan on the busses¡¡¡ 

Rohini dd

She is in charge of the curriculum. Also Bhakti sastri teacher. The group of Bhakti Sastri on Saturdays is a little behind schedule due to she was a little sick but we will continue with lots of utsahan and whenever she can not give the class another member of NIMSAR can do it.

Ananga Manjari dd: She helps in the elaboration of the Curriculum and she is also a pada padma tutor

Gaura gadadhara d: 

She is cathing up with the studies and she is also in the pada padma group that we have on Saturdays…

Patraka das: His sadhana is better and better after the operation.. JAY ¡¡¡¡¡¡

He has Bhakti Sastri groups in Chile 2 actually¡¡¡

He is studying Pada padma with M Rohini

He presented the financial report

CMDD:

She is sending the NIMSAR’s reports on time. Also she had finished the correction of the  BV exams second semester (english). She has 2 Bhakti sastris students both pujaris.

She is studying Bhakti Vaibhava with NIMSAR the group that we have on Fridays… ummm she is going to do a big effort and continue going to their meetings on Fridays… It will be really worthy for her… she just decided this..

Hanumatpresaka Swami: He is father from 150 kids, Last semester He used to be teacher, administrative, etc But now things are going better.He is keeping Half our for questions and answers with our BV chosica group, Saturdays half and hour with His English group and sundays one hour with Srinivas Prabhu. And of course He has SB class in the morning and BG class in the evening.

We got the answer from Bhakta rupa Prabhu regarding our request that Peru become an official Bhakti Vaibhava center…and we are going to respond some doubts that he has about how many hours do we attend Bhakti Vaibhava classes. But everything seems that is going pretty well.

We had a very nice festival for Sita devi ¡¡¡¡ very nice abhisheka, maha prasadam, music ¡¡¡¡¡¡

Now we are on Canto 3 chapter 7 JAY ¡¡¡

Srila Prabhupada Ki jay

Thank U so much dear Gurudeva for your inspiration and association

Your eternal servants

NIMSAR

HpS -  Jayayayayayaya!      We just wrote a letter to Laksmana answering his report.   He is only waking up Radha Madana Bihari two days a week rather than seven.  So, like that he is actually moving nicely to more education programs.  We asked him to start writing to this Blog and fix a date for our next meeting.  We are having hard time cnnecting with our BhVai etc. programs because of the travel to India but we try...
