PAMHO

Dear Maharaja: please accept my most humble reverences at your feet.

HpS/ASA - AgtSP!!!! Paoho....

 I wish to offer my sincere apologies once again for the message that arrived on your blog. It was not my intention to send any letter or content. I was simply trying, rather clumsily, to learn how to attach photographs, and due to my lack of technical knowledge, the system sent what was in the fields, which I had hastily filled in by typing... just so the system would allow me to continue.

None of it made any sense or served any purpose, and I take full responsibility for my oversight.

HpS/ASA - I don't think we have sent it. I bought a copy of a movie on Amazon by doing the same thing. I think it was Forbidden Kingdom with Jackie Chan and Jet lee!

Upon reflection… something very simple, essential, and nothing new comes to mind… -I must always remember Krishna-.

It is more than evident that when one forgets this, thinking –who knows what–, these kinds of entanglements arise.

I should have written “Hare Kṛṣṇa” spontaneously and consciously, instead of mechanically typing anything like -jjjhhhh- which sounds like a snake annoyed by frustration.

HpS - 🐸 ritvik!? ritvik!?

Even in a minor, technical act, that lack of memory reveals how easily a fallen comrade is scattered when consciousness is separated, even for an instant, from duty.

Please forgive me for this entirely unintentional situation. I appreciate your patience and mercy.

HpS - It happens all the time, no? Yet, because we are chanting daily, our intelligence is conditioned to the Holy Names and it tells our mind, "That is Maya. Correct it".

We would like to remember where we saw it, but we remember a video clip where Rama tells Laskmana that there is not mistake we can make that we cannot correct.

 We'll keep trying, and once I have all the images... and after I've learned how to upload photos to the blog perfectly, we'll make new and successful attempts. Eternal thanks!

PAMHO

Querido Maharaja: por favor acepta mis más humildes reverencias a sus pies.

Deseo ofrecerle nuevamente mis sinceras disculpas por el mensaje que llegó a su blog. No fue mi intención enviar ninguna carta ni contenido. Me encontraba únicamente intentando aprender, de manera muy torpe, cómo adjuntar fotografías, y por desconocimiento técnico el sistema envió lo que había en los campos, que yo mismo había completado ligeramente tecleando solo… para que el sistema permitiera continuar. 

Nada de ello tuvo sentido ni propósito, y asumo plenamente la responsabilidad por mi descuido.

Al reflexionar… se enciende algo muy simple, esencial y nada nuevo… -siempre debo recordar a Kṛṣṇa-.

 Es más que evidente que cuando uno Lo olvida pensando- vaya a saber qué-. Surgen este tipo de enredos

Debería haber escrito “Hare Kṛṣṇa” de manera espontánea y consciente, en lugar de teclear cualquier cosa mecánicamente como -jjjhhhh- que suena a serpiente fastidiada por la frustración.

Incluso en un acto técnico y menor, esa falta de recuerdo revela cuán fácilmente un caído se dispersa cuando la conciencia se separa, aunque sea un instante, del servicio.

Le ruego me perdone por esta circunstancia totalmente involuntaria. Agradezco su paciencia y su misericordia.

Seguiremos tratando, y una vez que tenga el material gráfico completo… y luego que haya aprendido perfectamente a enviar fotografías al blog, haremos nuevos y exitosos intentos. ¡¡Gracias eternas¡¡

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Dandavat Pranam Dear Guru Maharaja.

Please accept my humble obediences, i hope you are in better health; we are praying for it every day.

Thank you so much Gurudev for your dedicated help and guidance for so many years. Now it is up to us, as your students, to do things well and be obedient to your instructions.

Day by day I pray to Krishna to let go of my selfish desires and be able to serve Srila Prabhupada's mission as you teach us.

In the professional area, i have already successfully completed the academic year, and now I am preparing for my degree (Occupational Safety and Health Engineering).

Additionally, I have formed a committee called Safety and Health in Service (SSS), which is developing a risk and safety management system in all areas of the temple.

So far, the following has been implemented:

• Fire extinguishers in all areas.
• Safe action protocols in all service areas.
• Implementation of first aid kits.
• Electronic blood pressure monitor and blood oxygen monitor.
• Safety signage with the ISKCON logo.
• Area demarcation and improvement of electrical installations.
• Key administrative documentation for ISKCON Chile.
• Involving authorities in the health and safety policy.

All of this has been accomplished thanks to your mercy and the support of Manjuali Dd.

I would love to receive your guidance and knowledge so that in the very near future, a health and safety ministry may exist for service worldwide within ISKCON.

I hope to continue seeking the perfection of serving at your lotus feet. I need your help and instructions very much to follow the Srila Prabhupada's mission of this life.

At your service,

Lalita Madhava Das (Chile)

HpS - Hope, agtSP, we can talk as soon as possible!!!!!

What about regular First Aid classes?

Can even invite the neighbors.

I see the extinguishers.

Is super.

Hope we can talk soon.

¡¡¡Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja, por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias, espero que haya tenido un bonito Vyasa-puja 🙏

En la carta anterior usted me responde lo siguiente:

HpSwami-AgtSP.

Es una buena pregunta para reflexionar hasta el momento de la muerte.

Sí, hay muchas formalidades en ISKCON como institución.

Si es práctico tomarlo formalmente en ISKCON, eso sería genial.

En caso contrario, uno podría tomar votos formales delante de amigos devotos y goswamis para abandonar las relaciones físicas y sociales con el sexo opuesto.

Utilice una bolsa de cuentas de color azafrán.

La verdad es que no quiero tener ese tipo de compromisos, conozco mi naturaleza y prefiero no tomar una posición que no me corresponde.🙏

Todo tiene su etapa, su momento, ahora todo es diferente.🙏

Dentro de la institución, con nuestros amigos, en nuestro contacto directo con Srila Prabhupada, podemos, debemos, encontrar maneras de avanzar en las reglas y regulaciones del Bhakti yoga.

💪💪💪🐒

En muchos sentidos, creo que muchos blogueros te toman como inspiración.

Por ahora estoy en el templo de madre Laksmirani, le ayudo en los programas de los sábados y en las ofrendas que se cocina todos los días por las mañanas.

Se le ofrecen alimentos en las mañanas a Sus Señorías Sri Sri Gaura Nitai; Sri Jagannath, Baladeva y Subhadra y Sri Laksmi Narasimha.

Mis padres dejaron el cuerpo hace un año. Siempre los recuerdo y canto algunas rondas por ellos.

Bueno Guru Maharaja, me despido y que el Señor Nrsimha lo proteja siempre.

Hare Krishna.

HpS- Jaya. ONe month, agtSP, and three weeks to answer this letter. Sorry so slow. So much pressure during this three month tour: USA [Nashville + Dallas], Espana [India], Latin America [Chile, Peru, Mexico].

Super, Super resultados.

If we are not responding to important Blog posts, then try sending another with 'URGENT' in the Title Field.

All of your posts are urgent.

What is the news now?

Still win temple of Madre Laksmirani Devi Dasi?

Where is it?

Any Sankirtana?

Hare Krishna dear Gurudev AGTSP PAMHO!!

I'm glad your tour is going well, that you're healthy enough to keep to your schedule, and that you're in good company.

First of all, I apologize for not writing to you lately; there wasn't much to say. Now there are good things to share, thankfully.

A month ago, we said goodbye to Malati Devi Dasi, who was visiting the yatra. By the mercy of Krishna and the guru, I had the opportunity to serve her by cooking. It was very gratifying to develop a loving relationship through service in just a few days. She told me I should teach the devotees how to cook, and just in time (coincidentally), I was about to start a cooking course for devotees, so Malati DD kindly invited the devotees to participate in the course in an incredible way.

This past Wednesday was the first class, with very good participation. The devotees expressed happiness with the explanations and afterwards shared the prasadam from the class. Maybe we could make some participation certificates that you and Maharaja could sign to hand out at a Sunday party? :)

HpS/ASA - AgtSP. So sorry this has taken some time to answer. We have been here in Santiago with you giving us so much help for weeks now.

Thank you! All.

We were honored to sign the certificates and now hear about the background. When the Pandavas were hiding incognito in the court of Maharaja Viraja, Bhima was working as a cook. I think he was especially proud and good at making soups!

I'm covering some shifts in the Deities' kitchen during the holidays and helping out with whatever devotees ask if I can.

We are very inspired preparing things for your visit. We hope to hold an activity at my home for the spiritual family, so if SSGN wishes, I would be honored by your transcendent presence in my home.

I hope to be able to serve you and Yadunandana Swami as well, so this will probably be the last letter until your visit.

Malati DD's invitation to the course: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSvJIbmjjkd/?igsh=MWljM2Q2ajE5NjY3Ng==

Your eternal servant, Parasurama Avatar Das, Santiago-Chile.

HpS - Again, thank you.

We only hope we have not been a burden on people.

The Sankirtan here has been very intense.

In general, by Srila Prabhupada's mercy, we see that our service attitude is more and more becoming our basic consciousness. We have less and less tendency to criticize, reject, things, situations, people, and see deficiencies as an opportunity, responsibility for us to help.

We understand the little, unique contribution that we can make, more and more.

See you in one minute.

Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 8.30 am, Peru time

We will continue reading Madhya Lila; 18.128 onwards.

(The Lord Caitanya's visit to Vrindavana)

Thank you to all devotees for their dedicates service to ASA ~~ SB workshop class. H. G. Nikunja Bihari Prabhu will help us with Spanish translation seva for reading notes of CC. H.G. Mitravinda Mataji will help us with seva of back up translator; in case there are technical difficulties.

Maharaja, thank you for engaging everyone in reading systematically books of Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna Tom Brown,

--please explain what HpS meant by

"NoI 7 is true. If we GUEAGORDW then we start to get a taste for Chan Ting. It maybe only a game of chess of putting the words in the right place, but the Euclidean logic games, Rasa, later starts to glow with real efforts like compassion, satisfying Radha/Krsna, Gauranga. "

HpS/ASA - Get Up Early And Get Your Rounds Done Well.

May be we r feeling like Victim, dependent / affected external circumstances.

HH Bhaktipadma Swami, disciple of HH Gopal Krsna Goswani, went to Cusco, Peru.

HpS/UG - In the beginning like Jaya Krsna Das, the international chess Master, we may have to construct the Nrsmha Yantra one line at a time while chanting the 108 Mantras to control our mind, but even then there is some satisfaction, and then as we progress it becomes the Rasa mandal!!

We are pretty much on schedule today, 90% normal.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.

Now 4.10PM.

16 rounds done. as always trying to 25. successful 65% of the time.

at 4.15 hot mild with sugar.

4.30 half hour drive to home program. expect 25-35 devotees.

bad stomach ache.

maybe cancer.

maybe gas.
