Franco says that people are crazier than usual and it is better not to leave the house.

and I had no way to connect.


I don't know why he couldn't download his last two kapi Dvajas ... and just on Monday the 3rd I went back to work.

So I finally got a Wi-Fi connection and sent my report.

Vyas Puja offering from Gaura Gadadhar Dasi

3 years, 1 month ago by gauragadadhara in Special Category A

Mi amado Guru Maharaja,

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias.

¡Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

¡Todas las glorias a usted!

nama om vishnu-padaya krishna-preshthaya bhutale


Srimate Hanumat Preshaka Swami iti namine


Ofreciendole mis reverencias -mi querido Gurudeva, mi eterno guía y maestro- ofrezco también estas sinceras palabras con motivo de celebrar su Vyasa-puja, como el muy querido descendiente y representante espiritual de Sri Vyasadeva.

Es una gran alegría para mi ofrecerte mis mejores deseos en la celebración de su Vyasa-puja. ¡Estoy muy feliz de tenerlo como mi maestro espiritual! ¡Como mi guía eterno en este maravilloso camino de regreso a Dios!

Es un privilegio y una gran responsabilidad para mi glorificarle debidamente, como se merece. Para esto, reflexioné sobre las Escrituras y seleccioné este verso del Srimad Bhagavatam con el significado de Srila Prabhupada, del cual no quiero omitir ni una sola palabra, punto, ni coma, porque refleja todo lo que yo quiero expresar en esta ocasión tan especial.

titikṣavaḥ kāruṇikāḥ

suhṛdaḥ sarva-dehinām

ajāta-śatravaḥ śāntāḥ

sādhavaḥ sādhu-bhūṣaṇāḥ



Significado

El sādhu que se describe aquí es el devoto del Señor. Por lo tanto, su preocupación es iluminar a la gente con el servicio devocional; esa es su misericordia. Él sabe que sin servicio devocional la vida humana se malogra. El devoto viaja por todas partes, predicando de puerta en puerta: «Vuélvete consciente de Kṛṣṇa. Sé un devoto del Señor Kṛṣṇa. No desperdicies tu vida tan solo en satisfacer tus propensiones animales. La vida humana es para la autorrealización, para volverse consciente de Kṛṣṇa». Eso es lo que predica el sādhu. No se satisface con su propia liberación. Siempre piensa en los demás. Es la personalidad más compasiva con todas las almas caídas. Así pues, una de sus cualidades eskāruṇika, una gran misericordia hacia las almas caídas. En su labor de prédica se encuentra con muchos elementos adversos, y en consecuencia, tiene que ser muy tolerante. Puede que alguien lo maltrate, porque las almas condicionadas no están dispuestas a recibir el conocimiento trascendental del servicio devocional. No les gusta; esa es su enfermedad. El sādhu tiene la ingrata tarea de inculcarles la importancia del servicio devocional. A veces los devotos son atacados violentamente. El Señor Jesucristo fue crucificado, a Haridāsa Ṭhākura lo apalearon en veintidós mercados, y Nityānanda, el asistente principal del Señor Caitanya, fue violentamente atacado por Jagāi y Mādhāi. Aun así, ellos fueron tolerantes, porque su misión era liberar a las almas caídas. El sādhu es misericordioso porque es el bienqueriente de todas las entidades vivientes, no solo de los seres humanos, sino también de los animales. La palabra sarva-dehinām se refiere a todas las entidades vivientes que han aceptado cuerpos materiales. El ser humano no es el único que tiene un cuerpo material; las demás entidades vivientes también. El devoto del Señor es misericordioso con todos: gatos, perros, árboles, etc. Trata a todas las entidades vivientes de tal modo que finalmente puedan liberarse de este enredo material. Śivānanda Sena, uno de los discípulos del Señor Caitanya, liberó a un perro dándole un trato trascendental. Hay muchos ejemplos de perros que obtuvieron la salvación gracias a un sādhu, porque el sādhu se ocupa en las actividades filantrópicas más elevadas para bendecir a todas las entidades vivientes. Pero, a pesar de que el sādhu no es enemigo de nadie, el mundo es tan ingrato que incluso él tiene muchos enemigos.

¿Qué diferencia hay entre un enemigo y un amigo? La diferencia está en el comportamiento. El sādhu busca que todas las almas condicionadas se liberen definitivamente del enredo material. Por lo tanto, nadie puede ser un mejor amigo que el sādhu en su empeño de liberar un alma condicionada. El sādhu es tranquilo; sigue los principios de las Escrituras sin ostentación y de manera pacífica. Además de seguir los principios de las Escrituras, el sādhu es un devoto del Señor. Quien verdaderamente siga los principios de las Escrituras debe ser también devoto de Dios, pues todos los śāstras nos enseñan a obedecer las órdenes de la Personalidad de Dios. El sādhu, por lo tanto, obedece los mandamientos de las Escrituras y es un devoto del Señor. En el devoto resaltan todas las cualidades auspiciosas, y en él se desarrollan todas las buenas cualidades de los semidioses; por el contrario, el no devoto, por muy cualificado que sea académicamente, no posee ninguna buena cualidad desde el punto de vista de la comprensión trascendental.

¡Querido Guru Maharaja, todas estas cualidades lo describen perfectamente!

Estoy muy agradecida con el Señor Krishna, por arreglar nuestros caminos hacia Él, por haberme dado ojos para verte y corazón para escucharte. A través de su infinita misericordia, usted transformó mi vida, me mostró el camino a seguir, y llenó mi vida de paz y dicha eterna.


Gracias por toda su infinita misericordia.

Gracias por toda su paciencia y tolerancia.

Gracias por todo su esfuerzo y dedicación a todos nosotros y a la misión de Srila Prabhupada.

Gracias por difundir la conciencia de Krishna a todos los rincones del planeta.

Gracias por la dulzura con la que nos enseña las maravillas del servicio devocional, la verdadera felicidad.

¡¡¡GRACIAS POR TODO!!!

Por favor perdone mis ofensas, amado Gurudeva.

Estoy eternamente endeudada con usted.

Su aspirante a sirviente,


Gaura Gadadhara Dasi.

Vyasa Puja

3 years, 1 month ago by aja.govinda in Personal Sadhana Reports

Dear Esteemed Guru Maharaj,


Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and your glorious service unto him.


Dear Esteemed Guru Maharaj, this year 2021 brought about big changes for me, the birth of my two children. I have also realized the sacrifices in raising children crying in the middle of the night and upsetting my schedule. I am indebted to my mother and father for helping me when we needed them after the pregnancy, for supporting me, and for improving my spiritual life under your guidance.


Esteemed Maharaj, from my small realizations I obtained in my spiritual and material life, I have now learned the importance of hearing the words of the guru carefully and following the words of the guru carefully, including the siksha gurus and vartmapradarsaka gurus, my parents. I have begun to realize more deeply how their guidance and your guidance was always for helping me and supporting me to maintain my spiritual life.


I have also made a change on this auspicious occasion of your Vyasa Puja, holy appearance day. I was chanting my rounds in the daytime but now I have started chanting my rounds before mangal aarti around 3:30 am in the morning. Sometimes some deadline comes around and messes up my schedule but I have learned that I need to get up and try again. I need to keep trying to further improve my sadhana. I hope to keep improving myself and to try to keep improving my sadhana in following your instructions.


On a separate note, I am most appreciative and grateful for your guiding me towards the Bhaktivedanta Institute, a way for me to utilize my Ph.D. and academic position in service to Srila Prabhupada's ISKCON mission. I was fortunate to humbly serve in the Bhaktivedanta Institute this year 2021 in two ways: 1) as a Guest Speaker in the panel session “Celebrating Life and Works of Dr. T. D. Singh - Pioneer of Science-Spirituality Dialogue” symposium on 9th December 2021 on the occasion of the 84th Birth Anniversary of Founding Director Dr. T. D. Singh (Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami Maharaja). 2) as a chair of the Music, Attention, Meditation session of the Neuro Conference at the Bhaktivedanta Institute for Higher Studies. We are trying to work with the BI scientists Drutakarma Prabhu, Brahmatirtha Prabhu, and Akhandadhi Prabhu to build a scientific model of the subtle body and use that to explain anomalous phenomena in modern science. There is now a growing interest in consciousness by neurologists and neuroscientists. What I heard from your lectures since childhood has inspired me to delve into this field of presenting Vedic and Bhagavata models in scientific jargon.


You are my source of inspiration and my ideal Guru Maharaj in scientific preaching. Your books, articles, your work, NIOS, your mission in scientific preaching is so great and glorious! Your eloquence and elocution of clearly explaining Vedic and Bhagavata philosophy in modern scientific terminology and your easily answering my questions about Vedic and Bhagavata philosophy is what pulled me from my childhood towards the scientific exploration of Vedic and Bhagavata philosophy. I hope to keep learning from your Holiness and to offer my little service in this scientific preaching mission of Srila Prabhupada.


Your humble aspiring servant,

Aja Govinda dasa

Sankirtan

3 years, 1 month ago by Mishra Bhagavan Dasa in Special Category A

My friend Basu Ghosh Prabhu and his wife Ananti Devi Dasi were staying with their son Vamana at Frisco in the vicinity of Radha Kalachandji Dhama Texas 🐄 They live in an overpriced gated community where solicitation is strictly prohibited and has the security of a chinese gulag. 🧱


We were taking prasadam together and I noticed out the window that a lot of Indian people were about. I suggested we do some door dee door sankirtan. Vamana was afraid that we would be popped and it would come back to him as a tenant. 


I assured him that security would not make a big deal of us as long as we didn't disturb people too much. Then I went to Kalachandji's and asked Yoga Maya Devi Dasi who runs the BBT book room to sell me something from each Indian language that she had.  


She came up with hardback Bhagavad Gitas and Krishna books in Hindi. Telagu, Gujarati, and Tamil. 📚 We started out with the books and met Michael from Greece who was in his car coming from somewhere.  Michael had heard of the Beatles and I told him about our temple in Athens. He paid $10 on my square swiper thing and chanted the Hare Krishna maha mantra splendidly. 


 In another car was Hayden and his wife. They were all American and liked the pictures in the Easy Journey to Other Planets, gave a donation and recited the Hare Krishna maha very well together.  


So two people have bought Srila Prabhupada's books from us and we had not even knocked on a door. When we did knock Jim opened and immediately bought a big Bhagavad Gita. 


The next door was a lady from Harayana province who wanted something to read for her two daughters and bought the Hindi Krishna book. Having spent years as the president of ISKCON Baroda, Basu Ghos is fluent in Hindi and knows a lot of other Indian languages. This helped distribute the books.  


A family from Hyderabad invited us into their home although we came in the middle of their lunch. I complimented the man's bright blue dhoti and they took the Telugu Bhagavad Gita and placed the book on their altar. They look forward to visiting Sri Sri Radha Kalachandji's mandir. 


The next two Puerto were a man from Argentina and another from Mexico. I speak okay Mexican and they both got Karma la Justicia Infalible, then chanted Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.


Ananti Devi Dasi said that she knew some Gujarati friends in building 3 As we were heading there, the security guard Captain Katherine drives up in a golf cart and asked if we were soliciting.🐕 Wearing saris, dhoti and tilak we were not hard to spot. I was able to honestly say that were just going to a friend's. 


The gujaratis were not home. Meanwhile tattooed Paul was on his back porch and took an Easy Journey to Other Planets, attracted to the art work. 

By now security had us figured out and were hot on the trail, like back in the day. 👮‍♀️


I knocked on another door and a man from Chicago took the book inside with a thank you and shut the door before I could say anything. 🤷‍♂️The book was distributed and inside. I remembered how Srikara Prabhu became a devotee after stealing a Bhagavad Gita from a sankirtan devotee. Some devotees never ask for laxmi when distributing books.


The next door a tall african man who had heard of Stevie Wonder and liked the idea of an antimatter spirit soul said "wait " and took the Easy Journey to Other Planets inside. 🗿He came back and gave us $40, paying for his and the snatched one. 💰


Knowing that it's best to quit while ahead, we were heading back to Vamana's but couldn't resist two Indian men who were outside moving stuff into a truck. 🚛 One was named Balaji and they were from Tirupati. Balaji told us about his many visits to the Balaji temple, his namesake. He took the Tamil Krishna Book and chanted Hare Krishna maha mantra like they had done so for years. ☸


Captain Katherine came right up, a little perturbed that we had gotten past her. She escorted us to Vamana's like a presidential motorcade. We had gone through the entire place already. 🤠
