Letters to the editor

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!

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

Nuevamente escribiéndole después de unos meses para informarle lo que vengo haciendo en la actualidad y también para comentarle algunos temas personales.

Sigo viviendo acá en Huancayo-Perú.

Hace aproximadamente 3 meses que no estoy haciendo sankirtan (distribución de los libros de Srila Prabhupada), por diferentes circunstancias.

Estoy trabajando con Prabhu Devarshi Narada, el devoto da clases de manera virtual sobre temas de (Jyotish, Vastu, Ayurveda, etc). Se le encuentra en facebook (Astrología Védica Perú).

Mi trabajo consiste en editar libros de Jyotish, Ayurveda, etc; también algunos libros como el Uddhava-gita, Paramatma-Sandarbha, Bhagavat-Sandarbha, etc.

También estoy estudiando Diseño Gráfico, prácticamente me estoy actualizando. (Los tiempos son diferentes).

Aprendiendo Palmistry-Samudrika, muy interesante por que también lleva Jyotish.

Con respecto a mi Sadhana, 4:30 am Mangal-artik me conecto con usted y los hermanos espirituales por GotoMeeting, 16 rondas, cuatro principios, mí lectura personal, Srimad-Bhagavatam, Canto 4, primera parte “La creación de la cuarta orden”, Capítulo 15 “Advenimiento y coronación del Rey Prthu”.

Mi servicio es todos los días atendiendo a la Govardhana Sila y Saligrama Silas, bañándolas y dándole sus alimentos, también atiendo a Gaura Nitay.

No estoy asistiendo al templo de Huancayo, hay mucha política, mi asociación es con mis amigos devotos a través de redes sociales y llamadas por celular y en Mangal-artik con usted y los hermanos espirituales.

Tengo comunicación con la madre Nadiya Nivasi Dasi, por asuntos de la casa y terrenos, queremos vender la casa. También mantenemos una bonita amistad sin rencores.

Ahora mi enfoque es cultivarme personalmente y espiritualmente.

Me despido de usted Guru Maharaja, que Nrsimha lo proteja siempre.

Hare Krsna.

Atte.

Gadai Gauranga Dasa.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

Hare Krsna, Guru Maharaja, please accept my respectful obeisances.

Writing to you again after a few months to inform you of what I am currently doing and also to discuss some personal issues.

I still live here in Huancayo-Peru.

I have not been doing sankirtan (distribution of Srila Prabhupada's books) for about 3 months, due to different circumstances.

HpS/ASA - ...but we meet people that KRSNA sends to us in our regular work and to them we can preach and distribute books, no?

I am working with Prabhu Devarshi Narada, the devotee teaches virtually on topics of (Jyotish, Vastu, Ayurveda, etc). He is found on facebook (Vedic Astrology Peru).

My job is to edit books on Jyotish, Ayurveda, etc; also some books like Uddhava-gita, Paramatma-Sandarbha, Bhagavat-Sandarbha, etc.

I am also studying Graphic Design, I am practically updating myself. (The times are different).

Learning Palmistry-Samudrika, very interesting because it also has Jyotish.

Regarding my Sadhana, 4:30 am Mangal-artik I connect with you and Godbrothers by GotoMeeting, 16 rounds, four principles, my personal reading, Srimad-Bhagavatam, Canto 4, first part “The creation of the fourth order ”, Chapter 15 “Advent and coronation of King Prthu”.

HpS - Srila Prabhupada said that for understanding Political Science we shall study the speeches of Maharaja Prth! Then you can teach the Mayor, Governor, President!

My service is every day taking care of Govardhana Sila and Saligrama Silas, bathing them and giving them their food, I also take care of Gaura Nitay.

I am not attending the Huancayo temple, there is a lot of politics, my association is with my devoted friends through social networks and cell phone calls and in Mangal-artik with you and the spiritual brothers.

HpS - I heard from Srila Prabhupada's lips that there will always be problems in the Temples. This is the material world, but we should take shelter of Krsna and Balarama (Hare Krsna, Hare Rama!), and then go on with our service to Srila Prabhupada in ISKCON making friendships with devotees in terms of their purity and avoiding their material attachments.

Fine art.

Associate as you can.

Watch for KRSNA to adjust the politics!

I have communication with mother Nadiya Nivasi Dasi, for house and land issues, we want to sell the house. We also maintain a beautiful friendship without grudges.

HpS - Very nice. By your advancement in Hari Kirtan and the association of devotees, we can establish Daivi Varna Ashrama Dharma in the proper form in the current Age.

My focus now is to cultivate myself personally and spiritually.

I bid you farewell Guru Maharaja, may Nrsimha protect you always.

Hare Krsna.

Atte.

Gadai Gauranga Dasa.

HpS - Thank you!! Expect Krsna to send many opportunities for Sankirtan. Catch them. Maybe He will do big magic.

Hare Krishna!

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to you!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

Thanks so much for sharing about the state parks. I'm here at Finger Lakes State park, it's a beautiful place to chant and read.

I was going to go on a Japa walk, but then my camping neighbor saw me and asked if I was Buddhist. We got to talking and he said that he read Bhagavad Gita As it is!

I gave him a copy of "If attacked I'll chant Hare Krishna", and a temple song book. we read from Srimad Bhagavatam and Light of the Bhagavata!

It was really beautiful to show the pictures from the LOB in the middle of a forest with all the birds chirping.

ASA - "Chir Ping" 🐦 . . 🐦

I thought of you when the page turned to the picture of the renounced monk. And then I also remembered the LOB seminar in Boise.

HpS - Wonder Filled Book!! 😆

I guess I just wanted to say thanks for everything. I appreciate you so much and it's really beautiful out here!!

Hare Krishna!!

Part Two

I'm here at the RVC [Rupa-anuga Vedic College] and I had a conversation about the training program.

They are sleeping from 9p-3am. (So this is kinda late for the "get up early and get your rounds done" program...) (what do you think??)

ASA - No, that is fine. Get your rounds done early can be before Mangala arati, before breakfast, before 10AM, 13-before breakfast . . .

Then a full morning program and other programs during the day.

The focus here is teamwork and chanting during the brahma murhurta, and they have an amazing program of reading, book distribution, and Harinam every day!

HpS/ASA - Super!

This program is so blissed out!! It's the spiritual world!!!!

ASA - Discussed enrolling?

Your servant,

Jaya Hari Das

ASA - More!

Dear Guru Maharaja

Please accept my humble Obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Kapi Dvaja family ki Jay!

I left China for three months. There are some difficulties by government forcing us to leave from there. We are trying to get student visa to India hoping to see you in Kartik in Vrindavan. Past 3 years Chinese are unable to get visa and small hope is now there to get student visa.

I was in Malaysia Pengnan temple for a while doing seva in kitchen. My husband was invited by New Govardhan devotees in Australia for book distribution. We made all arrangements for that but somehow ended up on Bali Indonesia.

Prabhuji got to talk to nama hattas that they have and devotees expressed their desire that he stays and helps out here which he complied. Last year in Bali, government banned public activities and made a bad name to devotees.

TP here is however favorable to prabhus proposal of doing books to foreigners only and books from BBT Mumbai are already on the way. Plenty of "spiritual" towns here with weekly new crowd coming for spiritual tourism. Please give us your blessings and mercy on us to do some service for Prabhupada.

HpS - Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna!!! 👍 Maybe Krsna one Prince.

Maharaja, me and my husband, we always talk about you ,we are eager to listen to your classes. On the another day, we listened your class from Houston and Melbourne. We keep doing our daily reading. My husband made a reading list for me. There are so many wonderful books in Krsna Consciousness. I am trying to do my best with my limited English and limited English surrounding devotees. Prabhuji is determined so I follow his tail.

I bow down to your lotus feet and serve you with my heart.

Your aspirant servant

Bht. Rukmini/Wang Pan

HpS - ASA - Esteemed Wang Pan and Family,

Very esteemed husband can send us some news also?

What kind of people he meets on Sankirtan?

You are following all the rules strictly and with enthusiasm for one year? Time for initiation?

Thank you so much for this news. It is very, very, very enlightening fore us.

So many wonderful things we can all do together, all the different nations. Why do war together?

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaja

Please accept my humble Obeisance's and kindly forgive my offenses.

HpS/ASA - Ooof! You please excuse ours!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you.

I'm Krishna from Richmond. 

Following 4 regulative principles and doing 16 rounds Japa everyday.

Thank you for information about LOB Archives.



Yes Guru Maharaja. Following Srila Prabhupada's Initiation instructions from more than year. By your mercy, I'm Ready for Hari-nama diksa.

Always serving your lotus feet.

Thank you Gurumaharaja. Haribol!

HpS - AgtSP!!! Can you ask your Temple President, Divyanama Das about letter of recommendation etc. When shall we have the ceremony? What dates are good for you. Another devotee, Guiermo from Mexico is also ready, I think!!

Hare Krishna, Maharaja & Dear Devotees;

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All glories to Guru & Gauranga.

As per your instruction I am writing following message.

On May 27, 2023, Saturday morning class, we are going to start reading onwards from Adi Lila -- 10.130 verse. Thank you for your valuable association.

Upendra dasa

ASA - Thank you. We shall prepare.

This went late, don't know why?

Maharaj, PAMHO AGTSP!

I felt like a mother can’t hurt her child even in self-defence, I couldn’t file FIR on my husband despite green signal from my spiritual and material guardians. So I hired a lawyer and found that his untruthful abuse affidavit will not affect me much.

What a story Krsna is writing. It feels maybe his gf needs my money, home, all the things I bought in my home, my husband and a child from him (facing infertility issues at ~40) more than me, now that she’s left her own husband.

Regarding being exiled, I feel I should tolerate. But, Im not sure if I also shouldn’t strive to recover my husband on the path of dharma (solely for duty’s sake, nothing can be expected of him. I can do this by filing FIR on gf for extramarital affair, he will not be able to openly support her and it will create dissension between them. Or inform her parents that she’s creating problems in a marriage and she will never get marriage here.) He’s been thinking about engagement with her.

It is due to his vikarmic tendencies that always brought out my disciplinarian side (why I was avoiding this marriage). If someone met Mandodari on an ordinary day with Ravan, maybe she would be a little wary with him too, though Ravana may seem innocent.

My father asked him to give me access to my home as a bare minimum, but he refused saying first file seperation etc and I can give some money, (gives no estimate what to speak of alimony as you guided to pin him down with to make him accountable and thus help him become more self-controlled). Money is his noose. Now until he is court ordered to start paying alimony, he won’t even try to improve current immoral position.

Or should I just completely leave them to their painful karma 🥹🙏 and focus on something sublime instead of this vibhatsa situation. Please guide 🙏.

If Rama entertained Surupnakha, what should have Sita’s relatives done with her?

your servant,

Yajnaseni DD

HpS/ASA - AgtSP. As usual, American Spring can hit us with 175% disability from hayfever.

Adhibautica klesa, adhidaivika klesa - distress caused by others, d. caused by the demigods ie. Spring Devi.

They are all less than disturbances caused by death.

We have to take them as a chance learn to chant HK/HR in all circumstances.

Can you chant HK//HR withe vocal apparatus of a dog, and me with it of a frog?

Ribit, Ribit.

[?} Ritvik, Ritvik???

Very bad situation, I hold my breath, and sure enough lot of energy in the body still.

Use it to serve Krsna.

Arjuna killed Bhisma as service to Krsna.

Try to help your husband, that's what Mandodhari did, no?

But in proportion to whatever other service Krsna wants from you.

Stay in touch with Abhiseka Das, in proportion.

Develope your dance, cinema, projects with partners as much as Krsna allows.

Keep a copy of a letter from lawyer showing why you made decision not to file.

Hari Bolo.
