🌺🍃Toda Gloria a Srila Prabhupada!!🍃🌺

🌺🍃Toda Gloria a Sri Sri Nitay Gourasundar!!🍃🌺

Gracias por su respuesta a mi carta anterior y gracias por su apreciación sobre mi persona. Soy muy muy afortunada de haberlo conocido! Espero que usted se encuentre muy bien.

Hace unos días atrás estuve muy estresada y escuché una de las últimas charlas que dió usted en México junto a Bhaktisundar Goswami y para mi sorpresa comenzaba usted diciendo "Yo estoy sufriendo en este mundo, usted está sufriendo en este mundo, todos estamos sufriendo en este mundo! Este mundo está diseñado asi!! " y naturalmente comencé a reir a carcajadas y volví a recordar lo perfecta que es esta vida si uno se propone volver a Krishna, de todos modos no salía de mi asombro de semejante "coincidencia" y esta risa natural alejo de mi mente ese estress. Hare Krishna!! Fue un cariño a mi mente y a mi corazón escucharlo hablar de como usted conoció a los devotos y a Srila Prabhupada!! Gracias!!!

Si mal no recuerdo hace unas cartas atrás le comenté que iba a abstenerme de comentar asuntos personales por el blog así que buscaré la forma de enviarle un mensaje por privado para contarle sobre mi vida. Como dije anteriormente hay practicantes de bhakti yoga que usan la información para fines que no son devocionales y prefiero mantener cierta "privacidad". Realmente lamento mucho que esto tenga que ser así, pero me han recomendado que lo haga y comprendí que eso es bueno.

Lo que si puedo comentarle por este medio es que estamos sumamentr perplejos sobre el narcisismo que se refleja en la sociedad en general y dentro de la sociedad de devotos también, claro está, y esta negación de querer vivir en la Verdad. Es por eso que nos estamos protegiendo de la gente manipuladora y perversa que quieren desviar a la gente de la Verdad. Por supuesto no soy una devota pura y tengo anarthas en mi corazón pero no soy tonta, como mencioné antes nos estamos cuidando Gurudev, gracias a los profesionales de la salud mental que nos han revelado todo este aspecto de la sociedad humana y nos brindan muchísimas herramientas para mantener lejos de nuestra vida a cualquier persona con malas intenciones.

Es increíble todo el trabajo que usted está haciendo para Srila Prabhupada, usted es asombroso! Gracias. Estamos en contacto.

Acepte mis reverencias a sus santos pies, me postro a sus santos pies.

A su servicio, Jahnava Devi dasi. 🥰

🌺🍃HARIBOL!!!🍃🌺

PD: Intentamos subir una foto de Nitay Gourasundar para su placer pero el sistema es muy lento, situación extraña en estos días donde todo es rápido!!! Haha!! Hare!!

.. . . . . . . All Glory to Srila Prabhupada!!

🌺🍃All Glory to Sri Sri Nitay Gourasundar!!🍃🌺

Thank you for your response to my previous letter and thank you for your appreciation of me. I am very very lucky to have known him! I hope you are very well.

A few days ago I was very stressed and I listened to one of the last talks that you gave in Mexico together with Bhaktisundar Goswami and to my surprise you began by saying "I am suffering in this world, you are suffering in this world, we are all suffering in this world! This world is designed like this!! "and naturally I began to laugh out loud and I remembered again how perfect this life is if one intends to return to Krishna, anyway I did not get over my astonishment at such a "coincidence" and this natural laughter away from my mind that stress. Hare Krishna!! It was warm to my mind and heart to hear you talk about how you met the devotees and Srila Prabhupada!! Thank you!!!

If I remember correctly, a few letters ago I told him that I was going to refrain from commenting on personal matters on the Blog, so I will find a way to send him a private message to tell him about my life.

ASA - Jaya. Has to include un hombre in the dialog because we are Sannyasis 😄 and we are really incompetent to deal with individual particulars because we are so far away from people by distance etc.

At least in general discuss "personal" things here. Then we can try to deal with some details withing that perspective. O.K.?

As I said earlier there are bhakti yoga practitioners who use the information for non-devotional purposes and I prefer to maintain some "privacy". I am really sorry that this has to be this way, but I have been recommended to do it and I understood that that is a good thing.

What I can tell you by this means is that we are extremely perplexed about the narcissism that is reflected in society in general and within the society of devotees as well, of course, and this denial of wanting to live in the Truth. That is why we are protecting ourselves from manipulative and evil people who want to lead people away from the Truth. Of course I am not a pure devotee and I have anarthas in my heart but I am not stupid, as I mentioned before we are taking care of ourselves Gurudev, thanks to the mental health professionals who have revealed all this aspect of human society to us and provide us with many tools to keep anyone with bad intentions away from our lives.

It is amazing all the work you are doing for Srila Prabhupada, you are amazing! Thank you. We are in contact.

Please accept my obeisances at your holy feet, I prostrate myself at your holy feet.

At your service, Jahnava Devi dasi.

HpS - Jaya! We have to apply NOI 5 very well, no? When NOI came out and we read NOI 5 etc, it helped us so much in revealing our mind to different kinds of devotees.

We are safest when we see ourselves as servants of EVERYBODY. Aaaah! Of course, that is paramahamsa stage and NoI 5 tells us how to apply it at the Madhyama-adhikari stage.

Hoping for your wisdom as always.

🌺🍃HARIBOL!!!🍃🌺

PS: We tried to upload a picture of Nitay Gourasundar for your pleasure but the system is very slow, strange situation in these days where everything is fast!!! Haha!! I will do!!

pamho, AgtSP!

I always experience that ISKCON is vrindavan, only at first it was difficult to understand what was my position in this holy place.

Y,s. Madhu.

HpS - ENTERING VRNDAVANA:

The land, the cows, the buffalos and trees,

Are all unlimited nectarean seas,

Of the most intense mellows of spiritual pain,

Something which only the most fortunate ever obtain.

SANNYASA DHARMA:

A book bag, a blanket, a bucket and beads,

Will satisfy all of your spiritual needs.

Dear GM,

PAMHO

AGTSP

I hope this meets you in as good health as possible. I am inspired by your ceaseless service to Srila Prabhupada and the devotees.

I am getting older and weaker while still hanging around in this wonderful world of life, consciousness, sukha/dukha, gunas, reverence for Sri Krsna, and hoping for glimmers of awareness of the SPoG along with the appreciation for his servants.

I have your Tava Pache Pache in an attempt to remind me of the fundamentals of practicing devotional service under your guidance.

In addition, I enjoy epistemology. I taught the IB Theory of Knowledge course for many years to help pre-university students think critically and consider the basis of knowledge. They did not often understand the value of these thinking skills until after attending university for a while, when they would reach out to me to share how these skills helped them.

Visiting my sons for a spell in the USA. Pictures attached.

I am disconnected from the Krsna consciousness movement and all the wonderful engagements so many devotees are doing in their communities, although I have not strayed far from the path of devotion.

If I can help you in some way, please share. Maybe I could catch up with you when you return to India??

I hope this meets you well,

YHS

HpS - ASA --- AGTSP! paoho. I can immediately remember your condo on the border of San Jose and whatever it was. Your excellent intellectual association in so many, many, many ways!!! For some reason we did not stay in touch after you went to Thailand.

Ooof! 😞

Yet, who cares!!! Hari bolo! We are all in the same boat. "Once they come to Krsna, they can never get away"!

So, so nice if you can help us, join our efforts.

The simplest way is to read the News bulletin, www.jayarama.us/news.htm, every new and full moon day,,,, and as directed in there, post and read posts on this Blog.

You have so much to post here.

[4/15/2023 10:16 PM] Tusta-krsna Das: Hare Krishna, Maharaja. Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to you!

We are in India now. After talking with you in, we went to LA for a week to meet our manager to initiate our move to India for a year. Then to India for a week to meet Mataji and try to console her! We really didn’t have much to say other than to trust Krishna with whatever happens in our lives. Then a week to Denmark. The travel was a nightmare as Germany went on strike when we landed in Frankfurt and somehow got out of Germany to Denmark after several flight cancellation and standing in long lines for 7-8 hours. We then came to India on Apr-2. We have our return tickets to USA is on 18-Apr from Chennai. Mataji's health is better and is in a position to travel.

We need to extend our visas and wait to see if my company will approve our move to India. We’ll see how things go. We hope by august we should be in a position to move to India.

It has been difficult to practice in India, Maharaja.

We squeeze our rounds everyday somehow.

I have many rounds to catch up also.

I have to attend meetings late night and hence wake up late.

Mataji, has been at home all day and has not found anything to do after her deity worship in the morning. So she is frustrated and it also brings rise to the thoughts of her health problems.

The temple is very far from our home. When we move to India, we need to figure out a few things to keep our sadhana and find a Sanga. We see how protected we were in USA by living in the dhama.

We hope that the year passes quickly, health issues are resolved and we can move back to USA to serve in ISKCON soon.

HpS - Thank you for the news. All these challenges, and our efforts to overcome them, are eternal. At the time of death we will not have Deities on the altar, Walmart, or anything. 🙂

If you struggle to get one more round done in this challenging circumstance that Krsna has sent then that fight, victory, will be with you eternally.

Seems that the problem may be that Krsna wants your good wife to be His exclusive mother!

😲

Then she has to sing for Him, cook for Him, do His Sankirtan 24-hours a day.  She has to become a devotee on the level of Visnupriya.

Hmmmm!   Good question to ask while chanting.

[4/14/2023 9:15 AM] Sri Radha-ananda Das: Hare Krishna Maharaja Pamho

Very nice to hear from you. I will definitely look at your bulletin. Getting older and older. Greatest problem I am faced with is to remember krishna as the clock is ticking!!

Hari Bol

[4/14/2023 4:50 PM] HpS/ASA : https://vedabase.io/en/library/iso/17/

Even if we forget Krsna, He will remind us, no?

Sri Radha-ananda Das: That depends Maharaj. He reminded Ajamil. But not Bhishma pita mahama. Bhisma a great devotee and a highly intellectual!!

One h

as to realise one self on the devotion and service he is rendering. That’s my understanding. I may be wrong and I hope I am wrong! Thanks for the thoughts to share 

With regards

HpS - ASA --- "SB 1.9 Text 30: Thereupon that man who spoke on different subjects with thousands of meanings, and who fought on thousands of battlefields and protected thousands of men, stopped speaking and, being completely freed from all bondage, withdrew his mind from everything else and fixed his wide-open eyes upon the original Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who stood before him, four-handed, dressed in yellow garments that glittered and shined."

I think Srila Prabhupada even amplifies it more in the Purport, that Krsna manifested Bhismadeva's Istadevata form, and stood right in front of him as he was leaving his body.

We try 100% to do our service taking no help from Krsna.

Yet Krsna's foremost quality is not Satya, but Daya, so He tries 100% from His side.

Our effort is to try to remember him, but also, even more primary, to take advantage of His efforts to remind us. Look for His mercy and then be humble and

GRAB IT.

AgtSP paoho

After nine months of hard, productive travel we are back in our Base Camp.

HpS knew that there would be advantages and disadvantages.

1. After nine months, we can cook for our selves, our Diety, Lord Nrsmhadeva, our gross body. Yet, we also have to adjust to all the Boga and Prasadam that local devotees generously send.

Only here for few nights.

Campsite, water, fire, roof are good! Thanks to Tandavika, Ladies!! Getting car fixed. Getting into local rhythm and perspectives.

Getting online classes and calendar fixed.

Now is three minutes to local online FES.

We will try to put all these details in the Kapi Dhvaja so you all can join if you like or visit.

Yet, we are doing pretty well keeping this Blog up, so write here. Then others can see the answers and comments.

Hari bolo!
