🙏🏾🙏🏾hare krishna, gurujii, where are you now, please tell me, l am sister Raktak in ganga nagar;

Shiva shakti malhotra

HpSwami - So, very, very, very nice to hear from you. It really causes us pain at heart that we cannot stay in touch with family of our first disciple, Raktaka Das!

We think about trying to contact you all also, but we have such limited resources. Even answering letters on Whatsapp is limited. We can only do a few letters weekly.

If you can write to this Blog then it is more practical.

There are at least 40-devotees, friends and admirers of Swami Raktaka, who are probably very happy to read this.

🌴 We are now in our Base Camp: 902 Hillcrest Dr., Nashville, Tennessee 37129, USA.

Our body is 75-years old. We really suspect we have about a year and a half more before it is finished. We are very happy! We are consolidating all the preaching we have done with Raktaka Das et al in the Universities etc. around the world.

What has happened with Pavan Kumar, Srimati Silky et al.

Thank you.

Hare Krishna, Maharaj ji !

Right now I am in problem, my company fired me, I am jobless now, this time is very difficult, I have wife and one small daughter in my family, I am trying to solve this problem.

If possible kindly pray for us.

Your Servant

Yadu-vara Das

ASA - Krsna is kind. He is never cruel to anyone. If He sends Tapasya it is something practical that they can handle. It is only for purification and elevation.

If He needs a new Svayambhuva Manu and Satarupa in heaven, He may starve an advanced devotee couple so that they can leave their bodies in peace and happiness in the Holy Dhama chanting Holy Names and go to Svarga. This is rare, but possible.

Putin may start a nuclear war and we may all starve to death. It IS possible.

Chanakhya Pt. says that poverty cannot stay where there is constant endeavor, ignorance cannot stay where there is constant recitation of the Vedas (SB) and sinful reaction cannot stay where there is constant chanting of Hari-nama.

Get to work!

Look for a job for Krsna's service.

Hare Krishna 🙌🏼

AGTSP! AGTHPS! All Glories to devotees!

Thank you for your guide Maharaja 🙏🏼

HpS - So, Don Guimo, for how long now following 16-rounds, 4-principles? Regularly getting up for Mangala arati, Kirtan, SB?

16 Rounds close to 6 months (in 2 weeks’ time). Before that 2 years but not steady.

3 principles for years, 1 principle more than I could imagine it was even possible.

Getting up for Deity wordship, definitely not before sunrise but as soon as I can.

Just started attending daily to the 3:30 am Vanara Voices Call last week, but yesterday I missed the Call (I was having dreams, one of them a wonderful dream about Montemorelos New Govardhan, Chanting Hare Krishna and devotees, so I think it is a reasonable excuse 😬).

Kirtan on Sundays for around 2.5 years.

Started studying Srimad Bhagavatam on 20th October 2020 for some 340 days 40 minutes daily average. I dont keep track after that, but I still read almost every day. Sharing and asking questions to devotees.

Trying to do little service here and there.

Servant of your servants, Guimo 🙏🏼🥭

HpS - Super. Super. Super. Initiation is like matriculating in a university. You can investigate classes informally before at different schools, but then you decide that you want to formally matriculate and get your transcendental, eternal, all-powerful passport!

You go to the University Registrar and they say that all you need is to become fixed in Mangala arati, FMS.

https://vedabase.io/en/library/noi/3/#bb5883

Please, please matriculate. Srila Prabhupada can use you!

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva.

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

This is the current schedule of devotees for leading kirtan on Full Morning Service:

● MONDAY: H. H. Hanumatpresaka Swami.

● TUESDAY: Govardhana das, Mitravinda devi dasi.

● WEDNESDAY: Yugala Kishora dasi, Jagad Guru das.

● THURSDAY: Karuna Mayi devi dasi, Caturatma das.

● FRIDAY: Abhinanda das, Deva Vrata das.

● SATURDAY: Isvari Radha devi dasi, Karuna Sakti devi dasi.

● SUNDAY: Candramukhi devi dasi, Parasurama Avatara das.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Your aspirant servant:

Mitravinda dd.

HpS - Thank you so much.

Best Kirtan on the planet!

👍

😾

1. Are all the Leaders chanting 16-nice rounds a day and following four principles strictly?
2. Are they keeping FMS at home or in the GoToMeeting?
3. Do they know the word-by-word meaning of the Gurvastaka?
4. Have they read:

. . . https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/adi/17/123/

. . . https://vedabase.io/es/library/cc/adi/17/123/

?

🐐

What stupid questions? How should she know?!!

HpS - Maybe can encourage Leaders to follow some standard. We go forward to cultural conquest!

Thank you so much!

Please give our best wishes to Christina if you are in contact with her. Ask her to send some news to the Blog.

¡Hare Krsna! ¡Querido Guru Maharaja, por favor acepte nuestras rendidas reverencias!

Todas las Glorias sean a Su Divina Gracia AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada y a su trascendental legado.🙏

Deseamos que su salud sea buena y favorable a su Sankirtana. Muchas gracias inspirarnos día a día, oramos a Sri Krsna nos permita continuar con su asociación por mucho tiempo. Agradecemos su respuesta a la carta anterior y estamos tratando de ser útiles desde nuestra limitada posición. 🐒

Enviamos un breve resumen de nuestras actividades:

*Continuamos con las transmisiones en Facebook. Aunque durante este periodo, fallamos con una clase sabatina, que fue imposible recuperar, nos disculpamos por eso.🙇

*Ya hemos compartido las grabaciones de las 3 clases que dictó en el GBC College, sobre los “Principios de la administración en ISKCON”.

Gurudeva, respecto a la presentación que hizo sobre este tema en su estadía en Santa Eulalia. ¿Es posible que pudiéramos obtenerla y compartirla? O ¿tal vez se tienen otros planes para estas grabaciones?

Por otra parte, extrañamos mucho las clases diarias, así que esperamos poder compartir algunas otras clases en esta quincena. Mientras tanto, esperamos que los devotos puedan tomar refugio en las grabaciones ya existentes en ASA Carnaval.🤓

💻

Proyecto:

**Todos los domingos estaremos compartiendo una clase en español de Su Divina Gracia.

I will do [Hare] Krsna! Dear Guru Maharaja, please accept our obeisances!

All Glories be to his Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and his transcendental legacy.🙏

We wish his health to be good and favorable to his Sankirtana.

HpS - From Rupanuga Prabhu we think that it is not health, but energy.

Our energy is good considering our age, nation, situation.

AgtSP!!!

Thank you very much to inspire us day by day,

we pray to Sri Krsna to allow us to continue your association for a long time.

HpS/ASA - 😮 Not forever?

We appreciate your response to the above letter and we are trying to be helpful from our limited position. 🐒

ASA - We all try to help the Unlimited with our Limited ability and by His Divine Grace, by Radharani's Divine Grace , it is useful!!

We send a brief summary of our activities:

* We continue with broadcasts on Facebook. Although during this period, we missed a Saturday class, which was impossible to make up, we apologize for that.🙇

* We have already shared the recordings of the 3 classes that he gave at the GBC College, on the "Principles of Administration in ISKCON".

HpS - Thank you! Hope a movie can be made from what Pablo recorded in Peru Sta. Eulalia also.

Gurudeva, regarding the presentation he made on this subject during his stay in Santa Eulalia. Is it possible that we could obtain it and share it? Or maybe you have other plans for these recordings?

HpS - Wow! Maybe best to contact The Producer, Abhirama Thakura Das. He may be able to help organize the work.

On the other hand, we miss the daily classes a lot, so we hope to be able to share some other classes this fortnight. In the meantime, we hope that devotees can take refuge in the already existing recordings at ASA Carnaval.🤓

HpS - The daily class on line is too much work for our old Donkey, but we read and Tweet our reading.

Also, we have daily TLC in the FMS.

Saturday bi-lingual.

We gave classes when asked eg. MayaPuraTv.

Project:

** Every Sunday we will be sharing a Divine Grace class in Spanish from him.

ASA Carnival

HpS / ASA - We hope that you, we, everyone reading, can be little help in making Srila Prabhupada, Gaura-vani more accessible.

Please do this work only in that perspective!!

We are happy just to chant "Hare Krsna", and see that Srila Prabhupada is reaching people.

🐒

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,

  Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

  All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

  All glories to Guru parampara.

  Gurudev, am writing this letter with heavy heart. It is very sad 

  that you are not returning to India / Sri Radha-Kunda now.

  for last 3 days am thinking continuously about this. Many thoughts

  coming to my mind.....

Your dependent,

Hare Krsna.

We have been planning to start a Whatsapp Group for our circle of friends in Radha-kunda, Vrndavana. We just did it and included yourself.

Of course, this Blog is first place to communicate.

We are not these bodies.

We live in sound.

We visited India, Vraja, first time 1978, then 1984, then 1990, then usually every year after.

1990 - 2022 = 32 times visit India.

32+3 = 35 visits. Time for you to visit us in USA.

KRSNA can arrange everything.

🙂
