Hare Krishna Gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I hope this letter receives you well.

It was an enlivening happening to talk to you recently on the Whatsapp. I'm not sure how to move on from there. Is it alright if i send you a voice message occasionally if i am dealing with bhakti related personal questions that i would like to put forward to you?

HpS - ASA -- Daily basis now we see our body dwindling. Eg. our eyes can only handle so much computer time now. Only possible way for us to handle correspondence is if devotees, people, write here first with their preoccupations in a general sense and then we can give a general answer that will answer six more people with the same general question. If there are need for more confidential details, then, yes, we can try to do that.

Of course, there is Paramatma, Srila Prabhpada's books, local devotees, and then we decide if it is a good idea to start the battle of Kuruksetra.

Naturally i would deal with this privilege thoughtfully.

Besides this i wanted to give you some feedback on some of the developments of our congregation. Saturday may 7th was the day we organized our first Amsterdam Kirtan Mela, which was very well received. We had about 250-300 people in the peak.

-- SUper!!

Hrdaya Caitanya Prabhu was there, and several kirtan singers from Radhadesh, London, Paris and Goloka Dham. His Holiness Sachinandana Swami was so pleased with our effort that he pledged to be there next year and host a Holy Name Retreat as a part of it. We had about 70 volunteers and all expenses were donated, 95% crowdfunded in advance. Overwhelming!

ASA - Gauranga! Gauranga!!

The caretaker of the protestant church we've rented was very much impressed with our ISKCON and congregation. We've become personal with him and were able to help him philosophically in his understanding of Godhood.

We are furthering our bond with him, and as chairman on the board of the Amsterdam Protestant Church he offered his help to see if procuring a building from them is an option. The board of ISKCON Amsterdam is looking for purchasing a building.

We also were in contact with His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami for his presence both this year and the next, but things move a little more difficult with him, so our team is working on that.

HpS - We just saw a notice from him that he is moving into terminal cancer stages and is doing programs to consolidate things before he leaves.

His amount of disciples in The Netherlands has expanded with a handful devotees the last two years but still his presence in the country is rare.

Another big program with Kadamba Kanana Maharaja was the annual national celebration of the Kings birthday, which Maharaja traditionally celebrates by having a large all day Harinam on the streets of Amsterdam (madness!). It was interrupted for two years, and although slightly smaller than before, it was a blast!

Parasurama Prabhu from Food for Life UK and the Nama Ruci chanting group were there. We've seen countless teenagers and grownups chant Mahamantra for the first time, very potent and enlivening!

One thing I have noticed about my intention in organizing the AKM, is that prestige; being recognized by senior devotees (kirtaneers) as a person who wants to serve and does something important, is unfortunately an Anartha in my heart.

HpS - Ha! Ha! Hare! You and 99.999% of the rest of us in ISKCON, no?

At the same time i'm eager for their blessings, but wanting to be recognized is this annoying voice in my mind that keeps on rattling.

HpS - It will probably be there until the day you die, but if you engage in devotional service you will not be bothered by it.

Hare Krishna!

Your servant,

Raghava Pandita dasa.

Super, Super! More news as it comes. Japa. Japa. Japa.

SUper!

PAMHR, TLGSP, Por favor disculpe nuestras torpezas.

Estaba confundida sobre el código FMP. Quiero pedirle información sobre el Instituto de Investigación Bhaktivedanta (Calcuta). Para viajar a la India y obtener algunos permisos de trabajo en el campo académico, tal vez podría hacer algunos cursos en este Instituto porque he buscado en Internet y hay programas de doctorado, pero solo busco un curso para obtener una carta invitación. Esta carta tiene que incluir la idea de que me estoy suscribiendo a un curso especializado en filosofía védica. Además, esta carta tiene un objetivo polivalente: notificaciones de visa y permisos de trabajo que me dejen volver a trabajar después de seis meses de viaje. Ya nos había dicho que usted se quedaría en Calcuta (Kolkata), Manipur y Delhi el próximo mes de septiembre. Mi esposo Angirasa y yo podríamos comunicarnos con usted allí. Quizás puedas ayudarnos a conseguir esta carta. El tiempo estimado del viaje es de finales de septiembre 2022 a abril 2023

Every blade of grass is controlled by Krsna /Blue boy

Please excuse our awkwardness

I was confused about FMP code. I want to ask you some information about Bhaktivedanta Research Institute (Calcutta). In order to travel to India and get some job permissions in academic field, maybe I might do some courses in this Institute because I have had searched in the internet and there are Phd Programs, but I only searching one course in order to get an invitation letter for this institute.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP paoho. Please excuse our limited ability to handle mail! We are using this Priority Code system to encourage devotees to become informed by reading the news in the Kapi Dhvaja etc. before writing the Blog. Thank you for your letters!

This letter has to include the idea that I am subscribing to a specialized course in vedic philosophy. Also this letter has multipurpose objective: visa and job notifications that allow me to get back to work after six months’ travel. You have already told us that you would stay in Calcuta (Kolkata), Manipur and Delhi on September. My husband Angirasa and I would be able to reach you there. Maybe you can help us to get this letter. The estimated time of the trip is from the end of September 2022 to April 2023.

HpS - ASA -- We just sent a Whatapp to Sumanta Rudra, a Director of the BRC with brilliant descriptions of your qualifications, intentions, necessities and Whatsapp address. I then sent a copy to you. Is that O.K.?

Hope you are in swift route back to Goloka!

Respects to the Angirtasa.

Govinda pramodani and Ranchor are helping with all the travel arrangements.



asa[e] yoga-ladder; raganuga bhakti

bh. beauford: raganuga bhakti can only be applied to following the braja-vasis.

asa: does not appear so. reference 'noi-10', paragraph "after taking... come to ... spontaneous love of Godhead... following Narada...".

Hare Krishna, Dear Gurudeva!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada & All glories to you.

Please accept our humble obeisances. (PAOHO)

As of every two weeks:

* Bulletin is now upload on Facebook (English & Spanish), it is also in Google Groups (English & Spanish) as listed at: http://www.jayarama.us/hello.htm

Hare Krishna. Here we are, after some meetings with families, we can finally send this letter.

Our sadhana this month was not good. We had some problems to finish our 16 rounds. We complete them in the afternoon, and It feels different. Our mind is thinking about other things at that time. We will improve and try to chant all our rounds before classes. Worship is ok. But we can do a better service for the deities.. We are trying our best.

HpS - ... and Krsna is trying His best!! (... and The Witch is trying her best). Should be a good story!!

We had our appointment some days ago. the doctor said that we are fine despite being a patient with more than 20 years taking pills everyday... Everything is on Krsna's hands..

We really thank Him (Krsna), Srila Prabhupada and You for helping us to help you in the service.

Thanks a lot for your infinite mercy

EDT (Patrak das & Antuanette)

HpS - Super, super, super. Now we are running for our preview of the route for filming the Rathyatra video.

Thank you. Without out you all we are half dead.

Hari bool, todas mis reverencias hacia usted y a srila Prabhupada.

Con respecto al viaje aun no me decido si ir a españa o a india, que cree usted que podria ser el mejor lugar a viajar con usted? estaba pensando que quizas podria ir con panchatatva o algun otro prabhu que piense acompañarlo a usted y con respecto a la "career" me gusta mucho la direccion de cine y llevo un tiempo pensando si la estudiare pero aun no me decido, y a todo esto ¿como ha estado usted de salud?

Hari bool, all my obeisances to you and Srila Prabhupada. Regarding the trip, I still have not decided whether to go to Spain or India, what do you think could be the best place to travel with you? I was thinking that maybe I could go with panchatatva or some other prabhu who plans to accompany you and with regard to the "career" I really like film directing and I've been thinking for a while if I'll study it but I still haven't decided, and all this, how has your health been?

Esperando que se encuente bien me despido 

Hari bol!!!

Hari bowl!!!

HpS - ASA - Thank you Prabhu. AGTSP.... We have only a general memory of you!!! Who are you??? ????? ? Taken time to get to this letter because no Priority Code. They are in the Kapi Dhvaja each two weeks.

Are you going to India?

Spain?

We will be in both.

Hare Krishna querido Guru maharaja

Por favor acepte mis rendidas Reverencias.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada, de quien emanan múltiples cualidades.

Todas las glorias a usted y a todos los fieles seguidores de Su Divina Gracia.

Primeramente, permítame agradecerle por llevarnos en línea con usted a sus viajes, nos sentimos muy afortunados y bastante cerca a pesar de la distancia. 

Felizmente leímos en el Kapi Dhvaja la posibilidad de que usted visite México en el 2023. ¡La sola idea nos hizo muy muy felices! Muchas gracias por la inmerecida misericordia de considerarnos Guru Maharaja. Oramos sinceramente a Lord Krishna que por favor nos conceda la oportunidad de participar de esa visita…

La posibilidad de que usted visite México durante su gira de consolidación, me ha hecho preguntarme ¿Hay algo realmente útil con lo que yo pueda contribuir a su sankirtana?... ¡Estoy segura que NO!... Sin embargo, solo por la misericordia sin causa de Sri Krsna, de Srila Prabhupada, de usted y de varios vaisnavas, creo que esta existencia no será completamente inútil.

Entonces, es solo por vuestra misericordia que aspiro servirle. Por favor Gurudeva, ocúpenos en su servicio e inclúyanos en el trascendental sankirtana de Srila Prabhupada, para algún día complacer a nuestros amorosos amos Sri Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva y Srimati Subhadra.

Esperando no ser una molestia y eternamente en deuda con usted.

Su aspirante a sirviente

Hare Krishna dear Guru Maharaja

Please accept my humble Obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada, from whom multiple qualities emanate.

All glories to you and all the faithful followers of his Divine Grace.

First of all, let me thank you for taking us online with you on your travels, we feel very lucky and quite close despite the distance.

HpS - T. Brown and B. White try to make good videos.

Happily, we read in the Kapi Dhvaja the possibility that you will visit Mexico in 2023. The very idea made us very, very happy! Thank you very much for the undeserved mercy of considering us Guru Maharaja. We sincerely pray to Lord Krishna to please grant us the opportunity to participate in that visit...

The possibility that you will visit Mexico during your consolidation tour has made me wonder: Is there something really useful that I can contribute to your sankirtana?... I am sure NOT!... However, just for the causeless mercy of Sri Krsna, Srila Prabhupada, you and various Vaisnavas, I believe that this existence will not be completely useless.

So, it is only by your mercy that I aspire to serve you. Please Gurudeva, engage us in his service and include us in Srila Prabhupada's transcendental sankirtana, to someday please our loving masters Sri Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva and Srimati Subhadra.

Hoping not to be a nuisance and forever in your debt.

Your would-be servant

Karuna Sakti Devi Dasi

HpS - We feel the same way toward Srila Prabhupada! Anandamaya Devi Dasi is suggesting staying in Monterrey in her letter. We were thinking is opportunity for devotos hispanicos to visit without USA visa and other problems.

Mexico will save the world.
