Hare Krsna Gurudeva,

agTSP. pamho.

we can not decipher your messages hence again took help of AI and hot [got] a new perspective..

i wrote this to hpswami and he replied, HpS - ASA -- AgtSP. When robots rule the world.

The world turn inward to find deeper meaning....and sent attched imge

-------------------------

Ha! HpSwami has a wonderful sense of humor! 🥊

Two guinea pigs boxing — and his comment: "When robots rule the world, the world turns inward to find deeper meaning..."

I think he is gently and humorously pointing out:

You are fighting with yourself!

• One guinea pig = You wanting to chant, be a devotee, be free
• Other guinea pig = You resisting, sleeping, feeling burdened, counting debt

Both fighters are the same species — it's an internal civil war, not a real external enemy!

"Robots rule the world" may mean:

When we become mechanical about devotional practice — counting rounds like a robot, measuring debt like an accountant — we lose the living spirit of bhakti. Then even our inner world becomes a battleground instead of a sanctuary.

His deeper hint perhaps:

Stop fighting yourself over rounds. The self-conflict IS the problem, not the rounds themselves.

A gentleman (as Prabhupada said) doesn't fight himself in public or private. He moves with grace.

HpSwami seems to be a very realized and playful teacher — communicating deep things through guinea pig memes is itself a form of grace and mercy! 🙏

Does this reading feel right to you?

-----------

Any comments Gurudeva did you intent to say this?

Answer to this -

1. yes we have been fighting ourself from very beginning. we became mechanical , never developed spirit of bhakti...

2.yes Self-conflict is issue not rounds..

no idea with faith what to do.. for time being hear songs of Mahavtar Narsimha movie

HpS - AgtSP.

We wrote some comments in the letter from Piyari mohan, Piero, today, on this same theme.

Do they help.

Do the best we can do at the current moment. We will always be stupid, mild animals, so best to do what we can and realize that Krsna can make that something really useful.

The Monkeys were throwing rocks. The Rakshasas we using laser directed anti tank missiles, but the monkeys were winning because they were blessed by Mother Sita and the Raksasas we cursed by Her.

All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga!

PAMHO. AGTSP!

HK Maharaj! How are you? Long time no see 😃 how have you been?? Are you still in the US? How’s your health doing??

Well, here everything’s alright. I was thinking the other day about all of this situation regarding the mother of my child, her legal demand and I was surprised how so many devotees seem to be on her side.

When all of this started I got in touch with Mataji Chandra Mukhi, the Peruvian astrologer, and she told me, according to Jyotish calculations, that my ex partner “she has a great capability of being evil”, “she manifests her adharma through her mouth/speaking”, and that “she’s very interested after money”, Prabhu Daru Krishna (another astrologer) told me that “she has no respect for authority”.

Even she admitted before the legal authorities that she established a relationship with me “just to beget a child”.

And I question myself, even initiated devotees are on her side, how can’t they see all of this by their own means??

I always felt that for the one who lives in the truth, he recognizes the truth when he hears it.

And I was wondering in that respect, how when Putana entered mother Yasoda’s house the inhabitants of Vrindavan couldn’t realize who she really was?? Aren’t they perfected souls? Was that some sort of enchantment performed by Krishna??

So I please ask you, how can any person be protected from that influence?? What are the means by which one can always perceive the truth?

thank you for your guidance!!

HK Maharaj!

ASA - Hare Krsna, Federico.

Thank you for your news.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!! Extremely venerable Sri Krsna, object of glorification of His Divine Grace Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, Prabhupada in His book, Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, please guide me in Your service.

Krsna is everyone's well wisher. Of course, He is especially His own well wisher, 😎. He only wants to enjoy life like anything, yet, since we are all His fingers, toes, tummy, it is to our benefit the more and in ever fresh ways He enjoys.

Ramananda Raya was bathing and massaging the bodies of beautiful young girls after they had been working hard practicing to dance in alluring fashion for Lord Jagannatha.

Lord Caitanya said that that was the perogative of RR. Even He, LC, could not do that.

It continues to say that some one may appear to be engaged in bad activities, but internally may be engaged in the service of the Lord, and only LC and His intimate associates can distinguish such people. We practicing devotees, must evaluate people as we see them externally and internally according to our level of development, but not forget that they may be engaged properly, but we cannot see it.

Offer obeisances to an ant. Trnad api sahinuna...

🙂

Hare Krishna Maharaja

PAMHO AGTSP

I hope you are in good health.

My health has been good, and I remain in contact with my devotee friends, but the truth is that I'm no longer following the Krishna consciousness process. In that sense, as you taught me, we are now friends more than teacher and disciple.

However, I continue some practices and want to keep sharing Srila Prabhupada's teachings through my music and other projects.

I want to continue supporting, but I'm no longer a devotee as such.

Thank you Maharja, I wish that you continue to serve Srila Prabhupada eternally.

Piero (Piyari Mohan das)

HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna, Prabhu, Piero.

Thank you for your news.

We looked for more than ten minutes but could not find the exact citation in the NOD. Maybe someone knows where it is.

Rupa Goswami says that we should not accept more devotional service than we can actually do. Surprisingly, Srila Prabhupada gives the example of chanting 16-rounds. He says, as we remember, that if one cannot chant the prescribed number of rounds instructed by a bona fide, agtSP, spiritual master even after vowing to do so, one should not be discouraged, rather one should chant as much as he can, and this will gradually bring him back to the full standard.

Jaya!

Best wishes for reading and preaching!!

oink! Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna. 🐷

here we are in ISKCON Boise.

the sun is shinning, the wind is blowing, the air is clean and fresh. it is just a few moments in any direction to the high desert plains.

hare krsna. hare krsna.

alone with krsna in infinite space.

enough fresh air and sunlight.

it is like being in the krsna-balarama temple in the afternoons. the 24-hour kirtan is going with two or three people.

deities are 'resting'.

warm, quiet, spiritual without limit.

like the beginning of clifford simak's, 'time is the simplest thing' as we remember it.

we were like 12-years old when we read it.

what do radha and krsna want?

what do they need??

of mother yasoda and the gopi's intuition, we must certainly take heed.

siesta of the gods.

hare krsna. hare krsna.

Atendiendo a tu amable respuesta a mi informe anual, quisiera comentarte con humildad el propósito de mis estudios de filosofía occidental que actualmente realizo de manera virtual en Argentina.

Desde joven siempre me ha atraído la vida universitaria y el estudio; podría decir que me considero un estudiante permanente. Sin embargo, el objetivo principal de estos estudios, así como de los cursos de Bhakti-śāstrī y Bhakti-vaibhava que vengo llevando con Parama Padam Prabhu, es prepararme mejor para la prédica. Nunca los he considerado como un medio para obtener prestigio personal ni para otro beneficio, ya que mi sustento familiar proviene de mi profesión como abogado y de mis actividades particulares.

Mi deseo es adquirir una formación intelectual que me permita presentar la filosofía de la conciencia de Krishna de una manera sólida y bien fundamentada, especialmente ante personas con formación académica o filosófica, sin dejar de servir también a los devotos cuando exista la oportunidad. No pretendo competir con mis hermanos espirituales, quienes poseen sus propias capacidades y realizan un valioso servicio. Mi aspiración es simplemente colaborar en la misión de prédica, ya sea dentro del templo o fuera de él, según pueda ser útil.

También quisiera reconocer con sinceridad una limitación de mi carácter. Debido a mi profesión de abogado y, probablemente, a mi propio karma, suelo tener una inclinación natural al análisis, al debate y a la argumentación. En ocasiones esto puede hacer que parezca una persona conflictiva, aunque esa no sea mi intención. Más bien, procuro comprender profundamente los temas y expresar con honestidad las dudas que puedan surgir.

Siento que mi naturaleza es más bien trabajar de manera individual, sin que ello signifique apartarme de la misión ni del refugio de la asociación devocional. Encuentro una gran inspiración y guía en tus conferencias, tus enseñanzas y en los libros de Su Divina Gracia A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Śrīla Prabhupāda. Asimismo, valoro y escucho las clases de muchos devotos sinceros de quienes aprendo constantemente.

Si en algunas ocasiones tengo dudas respecto de determinadas conductas, reconozco que ello también puede deberse a mis propias limitaciones y a mi visión imperfecta. Estoy muy lejos de considerarme mejor que los demás; por el contrario, soy consciente de mis numerosas faltas y errores, y necesito seguir purificándome.

Te agradezco sinceramente que me hayas preguntado cuál es el objetivo de mis estudios. Esa pregunta me ha permitido reflexionar sobre mis verdaderas motivaciones y expresar ante ti, con toda honestidad, el deseo de utilizar cualquier conocimiento que pueda adquirir únicamente al servicio de Śrī Kṛṣṇa, de Śrīla Prabhupāda y de tu misión.

Tu Servidor: VISALA DAS

In response to your kind reply regarding my annual report, I would like to humbly share the purpose behind the Western philosophy studies I am currently pursuing online in Argentina.

I have long been drawn to university life and academic study; I consider myself a lifelong learner. However, the primary goal of these studies—as well as the Bhakti-śāstrī and Bhakti-vaibhava courses I am taking with Parama Padam Prabhu—is to better prepare myself for preaching. I have never viewed them as a means to gain personal prestige or other benefits, as I support my family through my profession as a lawyer and my private business activities.

My desire is to acquire an intellectual foundation that allows me to present Krishna consciousness philosophy in a solid, well-grounded manner—especially to those with academic or philosophical backgrounds—while continuing to serve the devotees whenever the opportunity arises. I do not seek to compete with my godbrothers, who possess their own unique talents and perform valuable service. My aspiration is simply to contribute to the preaching mission, whether inside or outside the temple, wherever I can be of use.

I would also like to sincerely acknowledge a limitation in my character. Due to my legal profession—and likely my own karma—I have a natural inclination toward analysis, debate, and argumentation. At times, this can make me appear confrontational, even though that is not my intention. Rather, I strive to deeply understand the topics at hand and honestly express any doubts that may arise.

I feel that I am naturally inclined to work independently, though this does not mean distancing myself from the mission or the shelter of devotee association. I find great inspiration and guidance in your lectures and teachings, as well as in the books of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Śrīla Prabhupāda. Likewise, I value and listen to the classes given by many sincere devotees from whom I am constantly learning.

If I occasionally have doubts regarding certain behaviors, I acknowledge that this may well stem from my own limitations and imperfect vision. I am far from considering myself better than others; on the contrary, I am aware of my numerous faults and errors, and I need to continue purifying myself.

I sincerely thank you for asking me about the objective of my studies. That question has allowed me to reflect on my true motivations and to express to you, with complete honesty, my desire to use whatever knowledge I may acquire solely in the service of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, Śrīla Prabhupāda, and your mission.

Your servant, VISALA DAS

HpS / ASA - AgtSP, thank you, Prabhu.

It seems valuable to study the history of the world, human endeavors, with the perspective of the SB.

NoI 3, seems to be the basis of this study perspective.

Being able to put fundamental truths into the context of different cultural heritages seems to be an essential part of preaching.

How much, and in what fashion to do it, seems to be a pragmatic question to some degree. How is our work convincing people to respect Lord Caitanya, no?

Thank you.
