Vanaprastha, Sannyasa, Death

From HlD - Whatsapp!

Four Stages of Elimination in Life:

At 60, the workplace eliminates you. No matter how successful or powerful you were during your career, you'll return to being an ordinary person. So, don't cling to the mindset and sense of superiority from your past job, let go of your ego, or you might lose your sense of ease!


At 70, society gradually eliminates you. The friends and colleagues you used to meet and socialize with become fewer, and hardly anyone recognizes you at your former workplace. Don't say, "I used to be..." or "I was once..." because the younger generation won't know you, and you mustn't feel uncomfortable about it!


At 80, family slowly eliminates you. Even if you have many children and grandchildren, most of the time you'll be living with your spouse or by yourself. When your children visit occasionally, it's an expression of affection, so don't blame them for coming less often, as they're busy with their own lives!


At 90, the Earth wants to eliminate you. Some of the people you knew have already departed forever. At this point, don't be sad or mournful, because this is the way of life, and everyone will eventually follow this path!


Therefore, while our bodies are still capable, live a devotional life to the fullest! Chant our attentive rounds, perform devotional service, read regularly Srimad Bhagavad-gita, Srimad Bhagavatam, listen Krishna Katha and honour Krishna prasadam. Let Lord Krishna guide us and give what's good for us.

HpS/ASA.

AgtSP. Paoho. Very, very interesting. One devotee was going to take an early retirement form Hewlett-Packard and we spent like 90-minutes on the phone discussing all this, "If I don't go to work what will I do".

I suggested that he travel with us and preach about his experiences in Grhastha ashrama.

I was a super success.

It even went into the "Times of India".


Like Prabhupada we can become more and more and more sought after, no?


Work connections go, parents, older brothers go, but younger people want our more and more and more mature realization of spiritual life, and also seasoned ideas about B'cari and Grhasta life, no?

Dear Guru Maharaja ,

Sorry for not be in contact too much, I didn’t want to bother you.

Chanting 16 rounds everyday, 3 gayatris, 4 principles.

Family is good my daughter is 10 years old now getting bigger, and with my wife kind of vanaprastha life together . . .

Good association always here with Badrinarayan Swami, Dravida, always the temple struggling to get enough pujaris.

I hope someday You can visit again San Diego.

Dayanidhi das


HpS - So, nice to hear from you and get this news. Please offer our respects to devotees. Even if cannot attend in your gross corporal form, maybe you can attend online sometimes.

Jaya Giridhari.

birth, old age, disease and death

All Glory to Srila Prabhupada and All Glory to Sankirtan Movement by Sri Gaura Nitay, and All Glory to ISKCON.

Pleace accept my humble obeisances, Dear HPS, Gurudeva:

These days, once again circumstances make us beg to be able to surrender to Sri Nitay Gauranga, we can observe that old age and illnesses are there to make us stop boasting, death awaits us, many devotees have left, or are very sick, last Tuesday my mother left her body, and there are devotees who tell me that they already feel that they are in the final stretch, and even so the mind seeks distractions, and winning good companies is very difficult, material difficulties are undoubtedly allies when you can live simply. and you're the real example, thank you very much for accompanying us on this path, your attachment to Srila Prabhupada and the Sankirtan. I pray become a devotee to serve properly.

Your crew member Aniruddhakrsna Das.


HpS/ASA -AkogtSP! paOho. Was wondering how you were, and here is a lucid letter.

Most people identify with the boat and when they have to leaves they kick and scream and fight, and then demand to be put back into another boat.


It seems that you have come to the point where you can accept death, leaving your body, without undo violence, attachment, and then you can help others do the same.

Yet the next question is, "What do we do once we leave the body, buddy, boat"?

We have crossed the Atlantic, we have docked in New York, but what do we do now?

If we are living normally, we would have been communicating with our future employers, understanding our job, preparing for it and expecting to be met by a particular persona when we arrived.

So, we do Ekadasi vrata. We learn to live a little more in the spiritual world.

We actually begin to remember what is our job.

Then death is nice.

Giving up our handcuffs and chains!

Correct?

Are you a peanut?

Are you a cow?

Are you a potato?

How do you know how?

Thank you!

[ASA Carnaval] – Reporte Padmini Ekadasi 2023

2 years ago by asacarnaval in Special Category A

¡Hare Krsna! Guru Maharaja por favor acepte nuestras entregadas reverencias

¡Todas las Glorias sean a Srila Prabhupada, y todas las glorias a usted y a los fieles seguidores de nuestro Divino Acarya, que nos guían en el camino que él nos ha mostrado!🙇

🌻


Oramos por que la energía de su cuerpo sea buena y favorable a su sankirtana. Muchas gracias por la inagotable inspiración que nos brinda para continuar con nuestros intentos de servir en el trascendental ejercito de Srila Prabhupada.


Escribo como parte del equipo de ASA Carnaval, para enviar nuestro reporte de actividades:


*Durante este periodo; Sugopi Devi Dasi, Jaya Hari Prabhu y RamaKrsna Ananda Prabhu, amablemente compartieron fotos y videos (De Richmond y Nashville). Apreciamos especialmente los videos del festival del Cultivo del Espíritu Humano (CHS) y del Harinama e iniciaciones en Richmond.🎶

*Por otra parte continuamos transmitiendo las clases sabatinas de Prabhu Upendra y usted.

*También hemos agregado al canal de youtube las clases que usted ha dado para ParthSarthi Foundation (Houston)


Proyectos:

*Tenemos pendiente comunicarnos con Abhirama Thakura Prabhu respecto a las grabaciones de Santa Eulalia.📌

*Aunque muy lento, continuamos con el trabajo de indización y respaldo en la plataforma de youtube.


Importante:

Guru Maharaja, respetuosamente, nos gustaría poner a su consideración la posibilidad de que, durante algunas clases sabatinas, se imparta algún seminario del “Guru Tattva”; Consideramos importante este tópico, porque la correcta y profunda comprensión de la función e importancia del Maestro Espiritual es el eje para el desarrollo de la vida espiritual. Sabemos que el tema ha sido tratado anteriormente en diferentes yatras, no obstante, creemos que estas clases, nos servirían para iluminar nuestro entendimiento y para contar con grabaciones de mejor calidad que podrían ser de utilidad para generaciones posteriores. Otra opción podría ser un seminario sobre “Canciones Vaisnavas” que puede ayudarnos a comprender y a relacionarnos con la canción y con el autor. Agradecemos su consideración y quedamos atentos a su amable respuesta.🙏

I will do (Hare) Krsna! Guru Maharaja, please accept our dedicated obeisances.

All glories be to Srila Prabhupada, and all glories to you and the faithful followers of our Divine Acarya, who guide us on the path he has shown us!🙇

🌻


ASA/HpS - Thank you all, ASA Carnival, for showing us such a good example of the complete life of Sankirtan.


We pray that the energy in his body is good and favorable for his Sankirtana.


HpS/ASA - Right now it is good. Just as for you, it is always a struggle, especially to honor Prasadam perfectly. 🙂


Thank you very much for the inexhaustible inspiration you give us to continue our attempts to serve in Srila Prabhupada's transcendental army.


I am writing as part of the ASA Carnaval team, to send our

Activity Report:


*During this time; Sugopi Devi Dasi, Jaya Hari Prabhu and RamaKrsna Ananda Prabhu kindly shared photos and videos (From Richmond and Nashville). We especially appreciate the videos of the Cultivation of the Human Spirit (CHS) festival and the Harinama and empowerments in Richmond.🎶


*On the other hand we continue to broadcast the Saturday classes of Prabhu Upendra and you.


*We have also added to the Youtube channel the classes that you have given for ParthSarthi Foundation (Houston)


Projects:

*We have yet to communicate with Abhirama Thakura Prabhu regarding the recordings of Santa Eulalia.📌


*Although very slow, we continue with the indexing and backup work on the YouTube platform.


HpS/ASA - We hear of all this work, but always hope that the same work is going on for Srila Prabhupada six-times more strongly than for us! Of course, there are Prabhupada's Memories, Lila-amrta, but ASA can also be doing things directly for Prabhupada, no?


Important:

Guru Maharaja, respectfully, we would like to put to your consideration the possibility that, during some Saturday classes:

  1. A Guru Tattva seminar is given; We consider this topic important, because the correct and deep understanding of the function and importance of the Spiritual Master is the axis for the development of spiritual life. We know that the subject has been dealt with before in different Yatras, however, we believe that these classes would help us to illuminate our understanding and to have better quality recordings that could be useful for later generations.
  2. Another option could be a seminar on Vaisnava Songs that can help us understand and relate to the song and the author.

We appreciate your consideration and we remain attentive to your kind response.🙏

HpS/ASA - Thank you so much. We will especially refer this Post to Sri Natha Krsna Das. He expressed strong desire to work on the ASA Encyclopedia (A Brown's Eye View of Everything)!

Also, we were inspired by your systematic formatting to try and ad a little more. Hope it is O.K.


God, or the Devil, are in the details.
