Introducing Camila

14 years, 6 months ago by Bhaktin Camila R.

Dear Maharaj, please accept my humble obeisances.
ALL GLORIES TO SRILA PRABHUPADA! PATITA PAVANA KI!! JAY!

My name is Camila and i'm from Chile, it's the first time that i write to you...you're in Chile now, but I was in New York for 20 days, so I wasn't in the temple when you got there(now i'm here), I saw you the last sunday, but Monday Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday I couldn't go to Valparaiso, so I just had the opportunity to see you on Friday, and saturday. I couldn't talk to you these days 'cause you were very busy, and any free time was for your resting, and i'm not angry, I know that I will see you any other time, but I wanted to "show me" ...cause now I know that I want to serve you all my life, you inspired me. The first time I knew about you was in your Vyasa Puja, my heart knew it, but my mind no, now I know, please accept me like your disciple...it will be the most beautiful thing that ever happens to me.

Sorry about my English,  I hope that you can understand everything that i wrote in this letter.

YOUR SERVANT,

BHAKTIN CAMILA !

HARIBOOOOL!!!!!! <img alt="laugh" height="20" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/teeth_smile.gif" title="laugh" width="20" /><img alt="" height="18" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/38.gif" title="" width="18" />

HpSwami - Srila Prabhupada Ki Jai!       In our present stage we have to be little bit careful of our "heart".      It still has so many material desires, seeds, sprouts, from hundreds and millions of lifetimes.  On the other hand spiritual life, bhakti yoga, is sentiment from the beginning and also at the end. So, it is nice to for us to meet you!   But let us start with the conclusion that Prabhupada, Lord Caitanya and Radha and Krsna are very important to be accepted as our Masters. Really, we can only get to know each other well in terms of Srila Prabhupada.
So, nice to meet you.
Why were you in New York?
Which books of Srila Prabhupada are you reading?

Concern - How to Do All our Work

14 years, 6 months ago by Namacarya das
Dear Guru Maharaja, PAMHO. AGTSP!
We just finished the meeting. I thought maybe we would have time today to talk about this but we did not. if I can, I'd like to tell you about my concern. It goes in line with what you said that we should not push ourselves too much. I mean, I wanted to tell you about this even before you said that statement. But it goes really well into my present situation.
 
As you know, I started the new job. Here is the link of the company  http://www.biovega.hr/index.php/english/about-us 
I am employed in the shop department of the company. The shop opened 9 months ago.
I have to admit, that there is much work and learning. And that takes a lot of energy. Specially, I came into extraordinary situation, quiet turbulent, could be said. The shop started with four persons working but last month two left and the other two persons had to do the work of four persons. They are exhausted. And I am new. The another new worker starts on 19th July. So, we 3 are working and I am in the learning process. In other words, we (and me specially) are working more, like 10 hours per day. We work on Saturdays, too. I come home at 9 PM with a blank mind. Very tired. Last week I barely opened SB <img alt=":( sad" src="http://mail.yimg.com/ok/u/assets/img/emoticons/2.gif" />.
My concern is that this is taking a toll on my BV study. I am not sure I can do the assignments. At least, following the week module schedule.
On work (in the shop) the colleagues say that this is a extraordinary situation and that usually, when there are 4 persons working, it is not so "tight" and energy consuming. Basically, we are trying to survive, go on, until the fourth person comes at 19th, and then hope that after some time (when this new lady and myself learn the job details), we all catch some normal routine. We are not sure when normal routine will begin, as it depends of when two of us new employees catch the intricacies of the work.
 
---x---
 
Now that there are no night shifts I am shifting to everyday morning japa . The body become  imbalanced with 3 shifts work schedule so I have to develop the habit again of usual routine of early to bed, early to rise... 
 
times I get questions about Krsna consciousness from colleagues. I feel it is very natural. As I do not act  incognito (naturally people know I am a Hare Krsna), it opens a discussion. Sometimes people say to me they like to talk because I am not obtrusive and that makes them free to ask and we exchange ideas. That is something that makes me happy, as I like to share the gift of KC.
 
---x---
 
I like the BV so much. I like the sanga we have and I am inspired by our churning of the nectar of SB. I would not like to stop it. But now I am so tired 6 days of the week. Only Sunday stays with time to study (other days I read but I can't concentrate much).  What can I do, Guru Maharaja? <img alt="8-&gt; day dreaming" src="http://mail.yimg.com/ok/u/assets/img/emoticons/44.gif" /> Should I stop? Should I continue? Ahhh...
 
Your servant

HpS - Jaya!   AGTSP    pamho.   Thank you so much for this letter.  We get questions, and we face problems like this, all the time.

First, better to die taking Prasadam!
Next, there is never enough time to do everything. It does not matter if we want to serve the Black Witch (Maya) or the White Witch (Radha), there is never enough time to do everything we can do.  So we have to be very, very expert to set and reset PRIORITYS.

1. Get up early and get your rounds done well.
2. Follow the four principles.
3. Chant Hare Krsna during the Brahma-muhurta (Mangala arati, SB).
4. Do your Sankirtana, Karma-yoga, for Krsna.   You are working for Krsna, not the BioVega company.  They are empowered by Krsna and may know more, or less.
O.K?

So, you can get an hour of S.P'pada's books in here and there during the day.  That is what your Employer wants.    That will help the Company beyond their wildest dreams.   For BvVai, if you have to just read the translations now, that is fine and then make note and later when we go through this again, and we will, you can read the missing parts in more depth!!!!!

DIARY of a Traveling Creature. (Zlo known as Diarhea of a Traveling Creature) by Buck White and Tom Brown.     ASA Staff Journalists.    From the Siddhi of Santiago at 6.15AM, cold as Krittles, 19-rounds dune, Anu-vrtti readings, now we write you a song of brave Bhaji Bole. he is the greatest live yogi and can live in a hole. whenever the french circus, Le Cirque du Platon, plays in West Hungary, not far from dear Zalaegerszeg, he would sit on a pole.

Spanning 9-decades he is a yogi reknown.

Making odd money as a gay circus clown.     Spickle and spackle, bhajans he'd cackle. As his dog and cat, Whoof, would play on a drum.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama!   Jaya Shiva, Jaya Shyama!      Sri Radha Govinda!

Dancing is Their heart and soul, Venu and Vina make a nice tune. Dancing at night beneath a warm Autumn moon!

Most folk are dead inside. They only want to brush their hide. If you chant the Mantra sent  by God, then your heart wakes up and can jump and glide.

But then we look for music soul, and some folks found cute Bhaji Bole.

Santiago de Chile [I S K C O N]


Dead Heads, beat no brains.
   We just returned from three daze in Valparaiso, Chile.
It's on the coast, you sure won't roast,
   But the sun and surf are a better day's refrain.

Super beautiful coast with surf and sun and walruses and
   Old buildings that smell from the 50's and
Carlos Bustamantes and
   Annibal and
No

Just eliminate what you don't need, tobacco, ssexx, alcohol, hard-work, bodily concept of life. One soldier was in the war. Soldiers were shooting at each other. They didn't really know why. There was propoganda from the government, but they were to similar to hate each other. They just wanted to live, but that didn't seem possible, so the soldier just walked away from the war and sat down under the trees in the cold weather and after a few days he died. Where did he go? He felt sure that he was going some place better. We have so much work to do. Why should we waste any time for these unecessary things. We have to discharge prestige, honor, wash pots for our maintenance for a little while. Accept a slap on the head from an insane boss. O.K. Who cares. We are just here for a moment. Just live the body to use the mind, to eliminate more and more. Then when so much is gone, what do we need?

A simple ontology. A simple religion. A few simple friends. Some beans for the burro and we live to die

O.K.  [Oll Korrect]

Time to take rest. Read Krsna Dharma Prabhu's "Ramayana" at Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet for our Japa-mala. Our Japa-mala is our friend, to the end. Srila Prabhupada gave us him.  Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.....    He can go back to goloka with us....  

DREAM
I dream of Goloka village
   In a forest without end.
I sits in a little dell while on both side
  The mountain peaks all swell.
A road it enters right and exits to the left.
  We forget from where it comes or goes,
But in Goloka of nothing we're bereft.
  Life goes on daily.
The calves go out to graze.
  Krsna's dancing to the music we calmly, clearly, praise!
