asrama situation:
1.talked to sri hari pr twice, he told life will be struggle for next 5 years in all aspect.
2. we have frequent tussle with our wife over trifle matters..
3.Sri hari pr was suggesting to take job, but we somehow got attached to phd as we think in long run we can contribute to HK movement.

confession:
in this movement we like books the most,  like to read ,re read, memorize, hear[ these days we are very irregular] but we feel sorry that nothing comes out as practical action....

maharaj we dont what has happened to us our mind or intelligence is always hovering ABAT/KC philosophy... we are always preaching mentally. we dont find any material or academic work of worth. as they are infected with sense enjoyment or hypothesis based research method.. it feel awkward to devote 8+ hrs to such work.[and devote at max 4 hr to the real thing  that to if circumstances permit]. just to earn bread and get ability to pay stupid bills... unfortunately somehow we are not ready to work to just earn money even though we have family..
i think we have mourned enough:

quadro perguntas

Question 1: i am doing X activity for Krsna ? how to make sure that i get attached to krsna not X. as u said once the X gets bigger krsna becomes shorter.

HpS - ASA - By keeping association of nice devotees and following the rules and regulations.

Question  2: how to identify [if] we are trying to compete [with] krsna in opulence of renunciation ?

Same as 1:

 Question 3: we think maya is attacking us by hate [ lamenting] not lust [ usually we hanker for  KC environment]. our mind is blaming people, self, circumstances etc... is there any way out of this hate weapon of maya ?

Try to help the people you hate in their service to Krsna.

Question 4: will taking intiation help us in any sort ?

Yes, but it is the content that is most important not the external formality.

we thank you to advent in our life, and provide us your association. we are very sorry that we disturbu with such  thoughts. but we think we are trying our  best.

we are very bad at expressing ourself through writing and composition..

regards,
harsh

ASA - In what media are you good at expressing yourself?

Hare Krsna,

AGTSP

paoho     We are in Buenos Aire.   We are doing pretty good.  We got a ways go yet to perfection, but the good Lord is giving us His mercy and we are trying from our side.   We have about two days of letters to answer.

We got an Argentina Cell Phone number.    549 (Argentina)  (11) 36 44 75 41

Tommorrow, Monday, we go to Mar de Plata.   So nice talking with Krsna-kestra Prabhu, M. Candra mooky Devi Dasi arrived from Peru.  Some nuts from Adi-badri en Brazil. Constant help from Adi-yajna.  So many old friends here.

Todas Las glorias a Sri Gournaga Todas las glorias a Sri radhe , todas las glorias  Srila Prabhupad.!!
querido Maha Raja acepte mis humildes reverencias  a sus pies de loto, mi nombre es Bhimanath Acyuta das , soy hijo de Jiva Goswami Y  lalita Saki , el dia 26 del corriente mes contamos con su presencia en mi morada , en el barrio de flores, estamos muy agradecidos por permitirnos prestarle servicio. Por otra parte mi padre estaria muy agradecido y feliz si usted lo visita, el me pidio que yo interseda y le pregunte a ud, si existe tal posibilidad para hacer un programa en la morada de sri Radha Vrindavan Candra, en Gupta Vrindavan en bernal, el dia que usted lo considere apropiado.
muchas gracias por su tiempo y gran misericordia!
su sirviente bhimanat

HpS - Jaya!   TlgaSP     Muchas gracias. Si 26 esta fijado en nuestra calendario.  Pero visita a Jiva Goswami es poco fuerte del tiempo corta organizar cosas y la politica de re-iniciacion por Srila Chandan Goswami etc.   Puede visitar Jiva nostros aqui en ISKCON Ciudad de la Paz (Santipura)?  Maha hari Das sugerio eso.  Puede hablar con el!!

JAY MIS Mas humildes reverenciAs GURUDEVA tlgsp!!!!!

espero que al recibir esta nota se encuentre bien de salud !!!!!

la verdad me cuesta mucho expresarle mi situación, porque aun seguimos viviendo juntos sin poder casarnos, debido también a los papeles de primer matrimonio  que aun se estan gestionando. MAHARAJA quiero pedirle sus bendiciones para  tomar responsabilidad y consolidar mi relación  por el fuego ya que por lo civil tardará un poco más. tanto sus padres como nuestras autoridades están de acuerdo,  quería saber cuando usted va a poder visitar nuevamente España porque nos gustaría que esté presente!

Por otro lado estamos hablando con Jayanta prabhu para tener un servicio estable en el templo, por ahora cuando Jayanta prabhu me lo pide doy la clase de los miércoles de la Bhagavad Gita  y voy comprendiendo la importancia de poder hablar  acerca de Krishna y la fuerza que da la asociación con los devotos. 

 SADHANA: aun nos cuesta despertarnos muy temprano por la mañana para poder cantar las rondas pero no perdemos la esperanzas, eso si 16 rondas todos los dias tratando de atrapar la mente en el corazon para cometer las menos ofensas posibles. Y SIRVIENDO A GAURA NITAY Y JAGANATHA,BALADEVA, Y SUBHADRA EN LAVAPIES MANDIR KI JAYA!!!!!!  QUE NOS DAN MUCHA MISERICORDIA.

mi deseo siempre es querer acercame más a Krishna,  le ruego por favor que me ayude ya que es a través de usted que yo pueda lograrlo lo único que quiero independientemente de la situación en la que me encuentre es el de poder HACER SERVICIO Y SERVIRLE GURUDEVA.

SIN MÁS QUE DECIRLE SOLO QUE ESTOY ETERNAMENTE AGRADECIDO SU ASPIRANTE A SERVIENTE bhadra v.d 

HpS - ASA --  TlgaSP    Pfarnh.   Muy bien su carta.  Gracias.  Super.    Primero lugar, si mantenmos los cuatro principios estrictas las detalles de casado, no casado no son tan super fuertes.   Son importantes, pero estamos bien con los cuatro principios.    !!!!     Claro, juntos, con la familia,  Kirtana y leyendo cada tarde y manana.   Y Krsna arregla un buen situacion para su Grhastha Yajna!

No vamos a Espana esta Mayo!!!  Demasiado fuerte la problemas en Manipuri, entonces vamos a India.  Pero 3-8 estamos en Radha desa!!!

Happy Guara Purnima...

Dear Maharaja, I am writing on this auspicious date to get in touch with you and convey this way my devotion and respect for your person, I am in contact  with the devotees and trying to serve. in late March with lalit organize a beautiful concert to go to benefit the construction of new church hall.
I hope you accept my respectful obeisances in each round sent him to where you are fulfilling the mission of Lord Chaitanya and Srila Prabhupada.
I have faith in a short time I can give up and get their initiation.
That Krishna lot of health to have their long instructions but on this earth.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Lord Chaitanya!!

HpS - ASA -  Jaya!       We are trying to call India now from Argentina. Little struggle and fix the dates for Delhi, Manipur and then Kolkatta. I don't think we will have time to go to Vrndavana or Mayapura. We will invite the devotees from those places to visit us in Dehli or Kolkatta.
