Scientific method

14 years, 2 months ago by Manuel Poblete

ll glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Dear Gurumaharaja Please accept my respectful obeisances. Recently I wrote the blog, my name is Manuel Poblete Moran, I live in Santiago de Chile, Santiagodo Mandir service in the Sunday Feast program (along with his discipleOm Kesava Dasa).

 Gurumaharaja, I work with many scientists, they just believe in the"scientific method", which is the best way to preach through thescientific method of Krishna Consciousness? "
 
Attentive to your instructions, your aspiring servant
 
Bhakta Manuel.

Hare Krsna.  We answered this before, no????   Basically the approach is there in the Preface of Introduction to the Isopanisad.  O.K.  You have read it?  Appreciated the arguments?   As far as I know these are not just Prabhupada's but what Jiva Goswami presents in his Tattva sandarba and very practical in actual debate.
However, following Srila Prabhupada's insgtructions to Science preachers and the example of Lord Caitanya to Sarva Bhauma Bathacharya and others we don't argue with people until we have turned their minds with sweet words.

First nice reception, then nice prasadam and polite although it may be strong discussion like in ISO.  Krsna's in our heart!    He will help!  Convert a dozen scientists to devotees!

AGTSP!!!

Please, accept mis mas humildes y respetuosas reverencias.
Dear Gurudeva, thank you very much four your quickly answers! How I want to go to Krsna quickly!!
Right now Im feelling bad, depress, I only can chant 2 rounds, I know maybe Im desapionting you, but is the true, my life, is like a " russian mountain" WHY DEAR GURUDEVA?? WHY??? I ONLY WANT TO BE WITH KRSNA REALLY!!! " TAKE  ME OFF THIS MATERIAL WORLD"- is a George Harrison song. Why I have this KARMA?? KRSNA!!!
2 rounds at the moment, with faith, devotion, and of course your blessins I know, Im gonna be better....
Thank you very much again, and sorry if Im desaponting you, I dont want it!
With all my heart broked, and my mind sick, your eternal sirvient Cristina.

Hare Krsna, TlgaSP  pamrh.  There is a reason why everything happens. So, don't worry too much. God is at least as nice as you. How would you treat Christina if she had done something really selfish to somebody else, something really hard hearted. Of course, she should see what see had done so she would not do it again, but you wouldn't want to hurt your child. If they were trying to understand and change then you would be very pleased and show them the reasons.
So, don't worry to much.
Most likely you are suffering from bad bady feelings.
Get enough sleep. Enough Prasadam. Chant for the good result. Chanting helps the liver, kidneys, brains, everything.

O.K?    Chant Hare Krsna and adjust your situation so that you feel reasonably peaceful.
Of course, sometimes we have to leave a terrible situation or even a terrible body.  I don't think you will have to do that! But if we have to then that also Krsna will make very reasaonble!
Many nice devotees in Peru.  Associate with them.

Bhaktin Cuz Santa

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Dear Gurumaharaja Please accept my respectful obeisances. I’m Bhaktin Cruz Santa. We introduce ourselves as his would-be pupil in your recent visit to Mexico (August). I'm trying to continue service with 16 daily rounds, Sadhana, and 4 principles. My devotional service is fixed: 5 days by week I'm making garlands in the Temple.  I recently completed the first module of the Bhakti Sastri online with Param Padam Prabhu, I got a grade with honors.
Please give us his blessings to keep us firmly taken from the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada. I hope someday will be a true servant of you.
Your aspiring servant
Bhaktin Cruz Santa.  

AGTSP  pamho.  Is so nice to hear from you.  You are the devotee we met in the program in Cueramara? We are in Barcelona. The festival of Varaha-dvadasi has just finished.

JAYA SRILA PRABHUPADA! JAYA SRI KRSNA! RADHE RADHE!!! 

HpS -   Jaya!   AGTSP    pamho.     How it is 9.53PM.   Next letter was before this one.
Thank you very much for this letter.  I know one Mataji in Brazil, one in Chile and ...  who express the same problem. In the Bhagavatam, Srila Prabhupada explains that the Kali yuga is a hell for women, children, animals and old men.    We fall into categories 1 and 4.  We cannot expect good meditation environtmen, good Deity worship, nor good social situation.   Yet, we can expect very, very, very easy access to Krsna through HIs Holy Names.   So, we make it our first work to get up early and get our rounds done!

Even we don't get proper rest, still up early, clock across the room.   rinnnnngngngn!   turn on the light.  Drink a glass of water.  Sit up and don't stretch out.  Rounds good or bad we chant them.  And there is the result.    The whole rest of the day we get O.K. mind, O.K. view of the Deity and O.K. Social relations. Not great but enough to inspire that tiny spark in our hear to be bigger tommorrow, feeling the real association of Krsna and our return to our situation in the SPriitual world.
[Sannyasis can't hand in hand with Matajis.   Haw!   Ja!    Haw!]
We got a nice letter from Oscar.   He will send our third film soon!     Lord Caitanya had 3-1/2 intimate associates in this world.  Three were men, One-half was sister of one of them.  She never even came close or communicated with Lord but she was very close.   So, we can all associate with Prabhupada and other devotees from this platform of Japa, ISKCON.
Don't be afraid of chanting more rounds, but keep a fixed minimum.
How may a day will you chant until Gaura purnima?
You can talk with Candramukhi dd also.  She is Head Pujari in Wilson Temple!
