   ¡Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

¡Prabhupadanuga iskcon-vartmana-guru-vrinda Ki Jaya!

Por favor acepte usted mis más humildes reverencias

Mi muy estimado Gurudeva.

Usted, ahora en Mayapura, realizando su bhajans, servicio devocional con fe y amor, a Krsna.

ASA - TlgaSP   Pfanrh   Estamo en Mayapura tratando establecer un ritmo regular! Mucho presion para la garganta hablando cada dia, pero bien!

¡Todas las Glorias a usted!. Nuestra japa, 4principios, programas, estudios BhS, estudios PdP, están OK.

ASA -  Esperamos encontrar Vds hoy dia en Skype, Webex!!!  Pero es horrible a vece por la tarde (a qui).  Si, no organizar clase con otros (cada dia!).   Ya estamos en Canto Dos Capitulo Seis.     Senor Brahma continua su description del Virata rupa!!

Siempre estamos tratando seguir sus guías en las lecturas de los libros de SP. Nuestro servicio en el BhSastri y Chosica también OK, tratando de pasar cada vez más tiempo con los devotos en el templo, en servicio, comunicándome con ellos, observándolos, reconociendo sus habilidades.

ASA - Esta comunicando con El Laksmana acerca de NIMSAR?   Tenemos que tomar unos decisiones como trabajar?

Hoy estamos iniciando el estudio del BG en el BhSastri con Ekantha DD. Haciendo mis notas del BGVisiónGeneral  en la atmósfera de su respuesta a mi carta anterior.

Esta Visión General del BG en el TPP relaciona el NOI-5, BG10.14, 18.66, 12.8-9, y 4.34 (la fe por oír de la fuente autorizada y atraerse a Krsna por servirlo, la entrega a Él por amarlo y confiar en Él con comprensión). Krsna dice: “Tan sólo fija la mente en Mí, (…)” BG12.8 pero si no lo puedes hacer entonces “(…) sigue los principios regulativos del Bhakti-yoga. De ese modo, cultiva el deseo de llegar a Mí”. BG12.9

Ahora estoy un poco más optimista, tratando de ubicarme en mi deseo, en mi actitud de cada momento, tratando de que ambos sean para Krsna, aunque eso es pura misericordia; pero al menos estar acordándose de Krsna, lo más que se pueda, da mucha tranquilidad; no hay amor sin interés. Pienso que tal vez, también se trate, de mostrar nuestro sendero en conciencia de Krsna para sentirnos acompañados. Tenemos en estos días entre nosotros a SS Prahladananda Swami, con su divina asociación, clases de BG y SB y sus cursos en Lima.

Siempre anhelando su respuesta mí muy respetado Gurudeva.

Su discípula

ASA - HpS -  Jaya!       Espero puede tener reunion fuerte con El Laksmana, no?

Hare Krsna Gurudeva

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

I am much better! I am improving very much, thank you for your patience.
I bought a super alarm clock that sounds like a truck from India,

ASA -   !!!!!!!       Jaya Srila Prabhupada!!    !     !        !

it is so loud that I cannot put 10 more minutes because I will disturb too much! So my 4am is really better :D and my rounds are better.  Puja, kirtan and rounds in the morning, accompanied by my brother. My semester is almost finished, so the enthusiasm is growing!

I also organized better my small piece of the kitchen, that makes me very happy.

I am also making to grow flowers in my garden

ASA -  Jaya!   SUper!  Dhooper!     Jaya!

to worship Krsna with my own garden flowers! (And because I am always taking care of them, I became also more concious to drink water myself :)  )

Gurudeva, I make something little whimsically. Some days ago in a program in a couple of devotees’ house, they gave me a very very small Tulasi that was growing on their grown Tulsi pot. And because I was doing all my garden stuff I thought it was ok. Then Tulsi did resisted, because she was too small. And I passed a lot of anxiety those days, so during this days I was nervous and sad, I ask a devotees (Prabhu Puspa Gopal) if he could bring a bigger Tulsi from Chosica. So now Tulsi is living with us in my house, she is beautiful and she looks happy this time (she is much bigger that the first one). Prabhu Puspa gave me a book about Tulsi care, and I am being very careful. It is ok?

ASA -  Yes,  She likes     1) Association.     2) Warm place      3)  Sun     4) Water.   Keep Her where people are active, serving!    How is you Ma Ma Ma???

Thank you Gurudeva to be so patient, I want to be a good disciple.

Hare Krsna! 
Your servant, b.Natalia

Picture of clock looks like little monster!

1. Our last meeting was had a special topic. We made a class about how to use facebook (for Krsna!). To learn basic things like to communicate internally through a secret group or more advanced, to invite our friends to future events. So we expect to improve our internal communication during the days between the meeting using our new group, where we can share information that we can comment and see easily all members.

ASA -  Jaya!  Super!   Yet, also demoniact, no?      We are using the technology of the demons for Radha and Krsna!

2. The transcription of the lectures is on the page 37! (at least one page per week) Is Prabhu Jagat Pavitram's service

ASA - Huh?   What lectures?

3. M. Damodar gave an idea: every two weeks, a member can write a small article about a "Sattva topic" to make a small archive of interesting articles to be able on the facebook page. The next week p Jagat Pavitram will present his draft of his article.  

ASA - Send then to different periodicals for publication!

4. We would like to be more careful to take some pictures about our activities to give some life for our facebook page (and for our reports).

5. We are participating on the program at Shell with the prasadam, the last time was 13th November.

6. Sadhana: Prabhu Abhirama, Jagat Pavitra, and b. Natalia are chanting 16 rounds. Prabhu Abhirama is arranging his new studio with a nice altar. M.Damodar improved her worship changing every Sunday the decoration on the back of her altar!

Thank you very much!

ASA -  Cool, but who one devotee and his wife left?  Where did they go?   Why did they go?

Dear Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisaces.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

All glories to you!!

OMG I have so much to say but I will keep it somewhat brief. Thank you so much for the advice on cow protection and milk. I told a few friends about it here and they also have become interested in the idea of getting a farm. It's srpeading like wild fire!!

HpS - ASA ---- AGTSP   paoho.   Farm???        Orchard!       Pool the bucks and buy and orchard!         Plant and sow!      Get some neighbors!         Use the fruit and sell the rest at The Sunda Feast!

Saddhana is steady: 16 + 1 rounds every day, 4 regs, morning program. My vow for Kartik was to attend japa every day and for the exception of a crazy fever and cold I had, I think this vow went pretty well to the point that I now have become steady and awake during japa. Fingers crossed!

And of course Prabhupada's marathon!!!!!!!!!! Here in Toronto we started the marathon this Saturday so it will comprise of six weeks. Six weeks of bliss. My goal for the duration of this marathon is 50 books. I'm a neophyte in book distribution and I am not qualified but Mangal arti dd told me that this is a good mood to have because when we feel like we can't perform this service.... I forgot what she said now. See? I am not qualified to even remember the teachings of the acharyas. Despite this fault I really enjoy serving Gaura Nitai and Prabhupada!!!! I like coming back home and telling Them how many books were given out!! Especially NOI. I know you really like this book so I want others to enjoy this book and go back to godhead by reading it. I love this book too :) 

So I ask for your blessings to keep going out everyday without fail and perform Sankirtan. It's alway very, very, very scary but ..." surrender means confidence" so I try to be confident that Krsna will take care of me. 

your aspiring servant,

Bhaktin Rashmin

ps. Madhavendra puri sent you the recommendation letter to both the e-mail addresses you gave me so I hope you received them.

Hare Krishna,

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

It depends on the day. Sometimes I can get them done in the morning. Sometimes by the afternoon. Sometimes I get swamped with service all day (literally) and end up finishing before bed. It varies. It's less likely I get them done by Guru Puja.

This place is for some reason very difficult. I have thought about taking to my Karmi life again. I pray to Pancha tattva to not let me go. But my mind is going back and forth. I'm struggling.

Your servant,

Bhakta Adrian

HpS - AGTSP   paoho.   Get up early and get your rounds DONE!       That is what we do.   We are not advanced, we are experienced.     Jaya!

If you have to get up by 1.30AM to get you rounds done early....   Do It!!!           Be enthusiatic but patient with your administrators that you have to have 16-rounds done by 10AM at the latest.

O.K?

Start today and make your report?

Are you going to serve Krsna, Lord Caitanya?

Pamho!!! TlgSP! TlgHPS!!! Mis mas humildes reverencias!! Querido gurudeva, ahora estoy tratando de seguir con mi sadhana!!!. Como ya le comente hace dos semana que salí del templo! Todo a sido tan rápido que me estoy re poniendo y viendo cual puede seguir siendo mi servicio ahora como parte de la congregacion.siento que ha sido una buena desicion para que la mente este mas tranquila y así pueda avanzar y dar un paso en el proceso .Espero me pueda dar sus bendiciones aunque no me lo merezca. Quiero saber como podría servirle. Estoy a su disposición. Su sirviente Bhadra Vardhaba.

HpS - ASA --   AGTSP   pamho.  Nunca quedamos afuera del Templo!!!!    Si no en el Templo del ISKCON principal establecimos un Templo de ISKCON autorizado en nuestra propio habitacion!   Eso es?   Tiene programa de ISKCON regular en su Templo?   Donde esta su Templo?    Ha!    Ha!    Hare!!!!!
