AgtSP

PAMHO

How are you? I hope health is still a word in your dictionary specially at that age that your body has.

Hp Swami ASA - AgtSP we have returned to our Base Camp at ISKCON Houston.

Setting up camp

I have a little question about chanting rounds and practicing spiritual life, does it really make you more sensible?

Because I fell the more I chant and the more I read I become to some extent more sensitive and cry-full I don`t bad or anything but makes me wonder if it really is because of that or is just the time of the year.

Hp Swami - Some times we wonder if we are making advancement in spiritual life then Krsna puts us in contact with someone we new in college for example and we see the difference.

We should be able to see tangible results externally and internally.

I`m fighting to wake up more early but some times this young body is fighting back and some days I even don´t finish all my rounds due to my own stupidity, I know what I have to do and I will do it, I think is just a part of the process to make mistakes and learn about them. But we will see each other more often in mangal arati :D

As always hope your health is betttter than before and that old rust little car still has some oil to work properly with not many problems.

HpSwami - Wars are not won by unwounded soldiers who march into battle with new handsome uniforms. They are won by wounded soldiers who get up, use what resources they have and go on fighting.

Thank you.

All glories to HH Hanumat Presaka Swami Guru Maharaj. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna dear Guru Maharaj. Please accept our humble obeisances at Your sweet lotus feet.

HpS, ASA - AgtSP!

Our obeisances to the Siddha-svarupa and lotus feet of your self and all of our readers!

We are like drunken elephants with the Rath yatra fever. Dear Guru Maharaj, I bow my head at your lotus feet again and again....You are so merciful. You give us so much joy in serving Srila Prabhupada.

The yatra was mind blowing...never have I witnessed such a crowd here...

His leela is amazing....and thank you Guru Maharaj....om ajnana timirandhasya.....Indeed I am so blind...yet so fortunate to have you as my spiritual master...opening my eyes...wide enough to feel the love of Sri Jagannath...premanjana churita bhakti vilocanena...

By your mercy, we are conducting daily house programme with ecstatic kirtan by HG Gadadhara Prabhu...

Some programmes are conducted at local temples....what great fortune you have bestowed upon us dear Guru Maharaj...

We danced for Sri Jagannath, Sri Baladev and Subhadra Ma....few professional dancers were there but most of us were not...we just loved to dance for Sri Jagannath....

Read Madhya lila CC....Guru Maharaj...no woman here give class...but with Your divine kripa....your poor and insignificant seevant has been doing this service....and all glories from Manipur to you dear Guru Maharaj.

Should I send an abstract or a short report or a paper on the work that I am doing here in the hospital? ( About the article to be published in Solaris). Recently a dialogue on Science and spirituality appeared in our Institute's Magazine. All glories to Guru Maharaj

Sending you some pics....dear Maharaj...

Your insignificant servant,

Sarad Gaurangi DD

HpS - We are faced with massive violence in this world. How can we stop it?

diary of a traveled creature.

we, hps/asa 🐵 🐖 🔭 are in Seattle, Issaquah, Washington, USA.

the sun is at 12.44am local time.

hare krsna.

we are chanting more and more.

we are praying to radharani, hare, to pray to rama/krsna to push us to chant more.

tonight see harivilasa das, temple program, tomorrow ekadasi, program in Lynnwood, like 1-hour driving.

Saturday at 5.30Am we fly ✈to Houston ISKCON!

How is your Sankirtan?

We are just trying to be a little part of Srila Prabhupada's band!

So much to do. Chant Hare Krsna, not for liberation,k but also what service can we do in the liberated stage.

After the battle of Kurukstra started, it was a chaos at many times.

The enemy attacks, the Black Witch, our Captains and General call to us to reorganize, but often we are fighting with another soldier by our side and no one else, and making local decisions about what is best for us to contribute something to win the war.

Just bought the tickets for Anantesvara Das and HpS to go to India, Ayurvedic Ashrama, from Madrid 26th September. Then return 12th October.

A.I. Das may stay a little longer or leave even the next day, but HpS will stay until like 21st October!

Calendar is external manifestation of the Super Soul.

Sankirtan. Sankirtan.

Sankirtan Partners.

'o'0' (Subhadra and her little brother, Krsna)!

'O'o' (Subhadra and her brother big brother, Rama)!

Hare Krsna///Hare Rama.

Will rest now and work on the ASA Encyclopedia asa[e].

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, pamho

I hope that this meets you in good health.

HpS - Old but still working!

Eyes are burning.

Digestion little cramped.

Always struggle to sit properly.

Little cold in Seattle.

Forty percent deaf (maybe by yoga we can do some recovery).

Back to Houston, back to Base Camp, day after tomorrow!

etc. 😆

Yesterday it was the presentation of Parama Karuna, Sri Sri Gaura Nitai in Wilson, Lima, Peru. I can not upload videos here but we can tell that the devotees were very pleased.

I want to give my gratitude to Isvari Radha dd and her daughters (Rayani and Sarasvati) they are an example of top-notch children raised by good devotees

To Meghapuspa Prabhu who is in charge of the pujari in Wilson and to Kavi caitanya das

But most importantly I want to thank your very good self for your blessings. I keep all your words, jokes, etc within my heart

HpS/ASA - Buck White, Librarian, for ASA, sympathizes with you. What a chaos your heart must be.

Hope to see you soon

Your eternal servant

CMDD

HpS - Pictures are wonderful. Makes us feel that there are heroes who are struggling for ISKCON in Peru! Is there any nation in ISKCON more essential for the Sankirtan of the movement than Peru?

We don't think so!

Get to work!

Draupadi was the cause of the whole Kuruksetra war.

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja, por favor reciba mis respetuosas reverencias.

SB. 2.6.20 - Purusa-Sukta corroborado

"El mundo espiritual, que consiste en tres cuartas partes de la energía del Señor, se halla situado más allá de este mundo material, y está destinado especialmente a aquellos que nunca volverán a nacer. Otros, que están apegados a la vida familiar y que no siguen estrictamente los votos de celibato, deben vivir dentro de los tres mundos materiales".

Aún sigo por aquí en Cusco, en la casa de Prabhu Anasraya (discípulo de Jayapataka Swami) y su asociada la Madre Taki, muy buenos devotos.

Ahora cambiare de ciudad, estaré viajando para el Paraguay, el lugar se llama "Ciudad del Este" cerca a la frontera con el Brasil. Voy hacer servicio en el templo de la madre Godavari (discípula de SS. Jayapataka Swami), estaré por esta zona un tiempo.

El boleto de vuelo esta comprado para el 14 de agosto, de Lima al Paraguay.

La hora programada es para las 12:30 am.

Entonces tengo un nuevo cambio de zona, el destino, dicen que los cambios siempre son para bien.🙂

Bueno, mi proyección en la actualidad está enfocada en una vida más de templo.

Al parecer esta carta será algo corta.

Bueno Guru Maharaja, me despido y que el Señor Nrsimha lo proteja siempre.

Hare Krsna 🙏

Gadai Gauranga Das

ASA - 'O' 'o'0' B SJ

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaja; please accept my respectful obeisances.

SB 2.6.20 – Purusa-sukta confirmed

"The spiritual world, consisting of three-fourths of the Lord's energy, is situated beyond this material world and is intended especially for those who will never be born again. Others, who are attached to family life and do not strictly follow vows of celibacy, must live within the three material worlds."

I am still here in Cusco, staying at the home of Prabhu Anasraya (a disciple of Jayapataka Swami) and his partner, Mother Taki—very fine devotees.

Now I will be changing cities; I am traveling to Paraguay, to a place called "Ciudad del Este," near the border with Brazil. I am going to perform service at the temple of Mother Godavari (a disciple of H.H. Jayapataka Swami) and will be in that area for a while.

My flight ticket is booked for August 14th, from Lima to Paraguay.

The scheduled departure time is 12:30 AM.

So, I am moving to a new area; they say that changes are always for the best. 🙂

hps/asa - agtsp... in our initiation letter Srila Prabhupada wrote that our American disease is that we always want to change everything, that it is better to keep the old system and make it stronger. Yet, we Americans (South Americans) are pioneers, no? So changing location, association, can be good!

Keep the same Sankirtan spirit, no? Improve it by moving!!!!!

Well, my current focus is on a life more centered around the temple.

It seems this letter will be rather short.

Well, Guru Maharaja, I take my leave now; may Lord Nrsimha always protect you.

Hare Krishna 🙏

Gadai Gauranga Das

HpS/ASA - May LN protect us all! Keep us in intense KC!!!!

Waiting for your news.

We will start reading Madhya Lila; 19.232 onwards up to verse 19.257

(Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu instructs Srila Rupa Goswami)

The class starts at 7:30 am ~ Houston Time

Thank you to all devotees for their dedicates service to ASA ~~ SB workshop class. H. G. Ambrish Prabhu will help us with Spanish translation seva for Maharaja's class and reading notes of CC.

H.G. Mitravinda Mataji will help us with seva of back up translator; in case there are technical difficulties.

Maharaja, thank you for engaging everyone in reading systematically books of Srila Prabhupada's.
