please accept my sincere obeisance’s, All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!


Thank you for your quick response, I know you’re quite engaged in service.


The question on our “8.3” number is parallel and self-encumbered, I was referring to the World population which is currently at 8.3 billion of all nations, then you refreshed my memory of 8.3 million gyrations in the species of material existence. So many cycles, and growing primarily out of tama-guna.


Murfreesboro sounds like a plan, we’ll need to get on your journal page to find the perfect stage for the visiting our Sage.


Will do my best to keep the responses going to you, not taking any chances, for now we may yet be blessed in your Spiritual quests


Hasta Luego Maestro Grande!  


HpS - 🐷 🐷 🦍

We have some letters for you when we get back to USA!

Are you doing service at New Raman-reti?

Dear Gurudeva!

Please accept my respectful obeisances to your beautiful lotus

feet. all glories to Srila Prabhupada!


hps - lettuce feet. AGTSP! . ! . !


I wish you had a beautiful Gaura pournima day! we bathe Lord Gauranga with Gopal and sing.


By the mercy of Mr. Gaura, the director of the culture of the town where I live gave me another opportunity to make a festival! we will do harinama book distribution, prasadam, bhajans, dances.

We hope that many people can benefit. We ask for Your wonderful blessings so that there will be a lot of preaching and book distribution!


HPS - hope you can involve many local people in dramas etc.



I am glad to hear from you, I wish you are well and happy in your wonderful sankirtan!


Speaking of my body, sometimes I still feel strong pain in my legs, but I rest and it passes. I can happily continue working and dancing.


Could you see the offering I made to you for Your Vyasa Puja?

HpS - We watched from beginning to end but moved a little fast through some of the oranamental portions.


Can you chant the Sanskirt from the chapter, especially the portion of Radha's conversation with the bee with Gopal et al. Send the recording?


Thank you for being my beloved Guru.


I feel at this stage of my life that I want to fulfill my duties to the best of my ability and prepare myself to leave the body. I saw "death" very close and it was a blessing. please pray for me to be able to occupy myself in service and preach as much as possible.


we are reading srimad bhagavatan every day. we have finished the chapter the pandavas retire opportunely and now we are reading punishment and reward of kali....


HpS - Write down questions and comments that occur as you read and then send them here?

please forgive any offense inadvertently committed in this letter. and accept obeisances from frank and gopal.


we were able to send a very small contribution to his sankirtan with prabhu Nikunja Bihari das .


trying to serve him with all my heart:


HpS - Yes! We got generous donation from you through Nikunja. Thank you all! We will try to invest it very well in Sri Krsna Sankirtan!!!

Hari Bolo!!

HpS - No offense. Thank you for the copies of the posters.

DTC Sa(11)

Hare Krsna.

AgtSP.

Paoho...


Tom Brown // Buck White here.


Been a long time since we write a DTC here!


Daily we do the paper copies.


Brother Ass has had chest ache for most of the day.

Also, eyes and ears failing.

Lot of impetus from devotees to trade in our S9+ for an S23, but the S9+ seems to be working fine.

It is like an old pickup truck. You know you can't drive it on the freeway at high speeds and you can't put too big a load in it but it has a lot of good features.

So much experience, education now. So many wonderful contacts, but the essence is:

Kirtaniya sada Harih.


Just chant Maha mantras constantly from the core or your heart, under the shelter of Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet.


HK HK KK HH// HR HR RR HH!

🙂🦍🦍🐒


Based in New Govardhana near Montemorelos, Mexico.

Dozens of devotees here and visiting daily and for a few days.


Will go to Mexico City for Ramanavami.


Then Houston 3-11th April, then back to our base camp in Nashville, Murfrees boro.

After that depends on the Sankirtan situation in the world.


Maybe buy land and start a teacher training college for Monkeys and Piggys in ISKCON and leave our body there.


Abhirama Th. Das arrive in a few minutes.


Gaura arati in 13-minutes.

Yugala kishora Dasi putting Krsna Balarama on the altar after Their change of dress.

Akincana power washing the patio with Arya srestha.

Matajis mind babies, monkeys.

Flys licking our prespiration.


Hare Krsna!!


Look at the youtube for a few minutes and Gaura arati!!

Gouranga! 💖🥰

Por favor acepte mis reverencias a sus santos pies.

Voy a robarle unos minutos de su tiempo para agradecerles una vez mas por aceptarme como su discípula en esta misericordiosa misión, ya son 11 años en esta práctica bajo su refugio y bendiciones y me siento sumamente privilegiada y mas consciente cada día de la misericordia de Srila Prabhupada. No creemos ser merecedores de tanto amor puro pero intentamos cada día ofrecer algo de nosotros para reciprocar semejante regalo.

Espero que este bien Gurudev, lo deseo de corazón, yo estoy muy bien gracias a Krishna con ánimos de seguir dando lo mejor de mi en esta misión ...


Gracias, gracias, gracias, gracias, gracias, gracias...eternamente. Me postro humildemente ante sus divinos pies.✨️✨️✨️✨️

Thank you for your association. Whenever we visited BsAs your association was like calm ray of light in the stormy dark night.

Hare Krishna mantra and initiation

2 years, 3 months ago by Namacarya das in Hot Topics

Dear Guru Maharaja, PAMHO AGTSP


In our recent sankirtana meeting the following question came up:

When the Hare Krishna mantra became the harinama diksha standard? For example, which acharya introduced it in initiation, together with specific number of rounds?

Devotees, me included, talked something about the topic, but nobody knew who, when and how introduced it as a diksha feature.

Please, can you answer?


HpS - Hare Krsna. I also have had that question. I think in Caitanya Bhagavata, Lord Caitanya says that he only eats in the house of a 'lak-pati', someone who chants 100,000 holy names daily. I think that is 64-rounds.


Srila Prabhupada mentions it in NoI, no? He says that he said that anyone who does not chant 64-rounds/day is fallen and then SP says that 16 is the minimum, but we can hope for mercy of Lord Caitany as savior of the fallen.

I don't know more.

Asked Krsna-ksetra Das or others?


Thank you!

YS ND

glories to the movement of Lord Caitanya

dear Hanumat preshak Swami

please accept my humble obeisances

all glories to His Divine Grace !


Thank you for giving me privilage to associate more closely with you and your disciples. I wanted to ask you if you have any of your disicples whom I can communicate with, more about some basic and practical things , just to reduce the burden to you, and save your time. I arrived in Malaysia, Penang and I stay in temple. My husband is recommending devotees to stay here for some time and learn/participate in temple activities that we have no facility in China.


Its my second time here and its very nourishing. My husband will come next week and we hope to have some preaching engagements here because there is a great need for that.


After Malaysia if Krsna willing, there are some devotes that invited us to Bali, Indonesia for more sanga.


HpS - Our big brother and Sannyasa guru, H. H. Bhakti-svarupa Damodara Swami has a temple and guru kula there, I think. His disciple, Abhimanyu Das is there. I don't know the exact address.


Maybe some one reading the Blog can help with some discussions. I can't recommend anyone specific.

Are they specific topics?

🙂🙂🦍🙂


Krsna consciousness is ecstatic, is what comes to my mind now. I hope I would be able to meet you soon in India. China/India have some political issues and they are not issuing visas. Still there is half year till Kartik when we plan to visit and hopefully associate with you. My husband told you he used to see you with small group of devotees here and there. I am trying my best to be a good representative of Srila Prabhupada and your Holiness. What would you want me to do? What would please you ?


Aspiring to be a servant , Bht.Rukmini/Wang Pan


HpS/ASA -- Of course, just being disciple of Srila Prabhupada is best service. Beyond that I don't know if you are motivated by any of the specific projects we have.

Just watch the Kapi Dhvaja and see how you might give some specific conribution there.

Very much it is nice having a correspondent sending Krsna conscious news from Asia.

Maybe one of the "spy programs" is also reading our letters.

🙂🙂🙂

So we will have a broader audience.

👍👍👍🌴👍

Respects to your esteemed husband.

Is he writing anything?
