Dear Maharaja

please accept my humble obeisances - all glories to Srila Prabhupada

i wonder if you remember me. We met in 2013 at the GBC, guru sannyasi sanga. We were in the same breakout group. I was the facilitator.

I hope you are well.

I run a Facebook group called Vedic Inquirer. It’s all about child protection. We have had a few ISKCON leaders interview to give their thoughts on the topic. Would love to invite you to interview.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

PAMHO,

We are writing right now because you requested us to do it. So, we want to tell you and all the devotees here that the father of your good disciple Raga Sindhu Das from Santiago, Chile just passed away yesterday.

His name was Ricardo Edmundo Gonzalez Mendez. A picture of him is attached here.

I met him on different family occasions and always he was kind to the devotees because in his family there are a lot of Krishna's devotees.

Jñana Skati d.d, his wife and Bhakti Busana Disciple told me today that her father-in-law, always was favourable, promoting even that Raga goes to the temple. Obviously, he always wanted that his son finishes his studies, but he feels secure if he knows that Raga Sindhu Das was in the temple.

ACTUALLY, he could call his own son by different names, but he prefers to call him by the spiritual name that you gave to him.

Family of Krishna Devotees

The youngest of his brothers, Sergio Gonzalez, is the one who preached to Govinda Bhajans (Claudio Gonzalez), who is Raga Sindu's older brother. And Bhakta Sergio preached to Bhakta Marcos too, a cousin of similar age to Raga, and a member of our community here.

So, then Govinda Bhajans and Raga Sindhu preached to their wives and children. So, "Don Ricardo" loves his grandchildren devotees.

His oldest grandchildren are Nitay, and the youngest -from Raga Sindhu and Jñana Sakti- are Radheya and Subal. He always requires his daughter in law takes care too much of the kids. They are his most precious treasure and sometimes he says hello to them saying "Hari Bol!" laughing with joy

He never questioned how they took care of the children...the strict vegetarianism o the devotees, for instance. In fact, Radheya preached to him about food... when he saw him eat something different.

Don Ricardo used to say: "This boy...I'm going to eat somewhere else...he tells me that animals are friends" and laugh. He was funny and liked social justice.

He didn't take alcohol, so when visiting the Raga's family just brings beer alcohol-free, suitable for children and makes jokes about it, this house was the only place where no alcoholic beverage is welcome.

The whole Gonzalez family appreciate the devotees. Understanding that Japa and Gayatri the devotees are "rezando". The Holy names are everywhere because of the children's names.

Raga visits him recently and put his own tulasi beads, so he left wearing tulasi beads.

We hope the whole spiritual family of readers of the Monkey Warrior Blog give their blessing to this soul to continue his journey and in the next stop always keep de Krsna devotees close to him.

Thank you for your concern and take care of us in different moments of our life.

Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaja.

HpS - Hari bolo!!! Hari Bolo! SB10.47.63 Chant in front of his picture for his satisfaction while he is in the subtle atmosphere. Give guidance.

A día de hoy, he terminado la "traducción bruta" de todo el texto y he empezado la primera corrección. En resumen, todo va según el plan previsto. Un abrazo.

ASA -- Oink! Oink! 🐷 Whoop! Whoop! 🐵

... Espero que esta esfuersa auyuda el movimiento de Senyor Caitanya!!! Muchas gracias a el. Ya tenemos el boleto ir a Espanya, no?

Sugeriencias de programa?

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj,

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

I apologize in advance for bringing you some bad news Guru Maharaj. I lost by initiation beads yesterday.

I have been searching everywhere and trying to find it, but i have failed to locate my beads.

I am extremely distraught and i don't know what to do. I am usually a very cautious person when it comes to keeping my things safe, but I have no idea how or where i lost my chanting bag.

I have not been able to think straight from yesterday and am feeling really ashamed that i lost my beads. Please forgive me Guru Maharaj. I will make sure that this never happens again.

I have been doing my daily rounds yesterday and today with my pre-initiation beads.

Please advice me on what I should do next Guru Maharaj.

Your humble servant

Srirama Krishna Das

HpS - AGTSP. paoho. I can certainly agree that you are not an irresponsible person. Mybe they will reappear.

If not.... ... . then chant on your other beads. Do I need to chant on them again. We heard that Srila Prabhupada said, no, but we do feel comfortable taking the entire set in our hands and chanting one... mahamantra!

We worship a thief.

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

PAMHO

AGTSP

A few days ago I was thinking write to you and just this afternoon Candra Muki told me that you were requesting recipes for cookies and banana cake. So I immediately thought it was the best time to do it! 😁

Gratitude

Maharaja, the trip we made to Peru touched our hearts! I feel very, very grateful that you've allowed us to share with you in Santa Eulalia.

Were enriching days that renewed and recharged us spiritually. It was also like that for my husband, Jagad Guru, I know!

HpS/ASA - AGTSP!!! Who puts us little beings in situations where we can be of real use to each other. Everyone was very, very, very happy to have your whole family there. Rasarani's war with the Evil Rooster will forever be known of the property.

I'm very grateful to your disciples for allowing me to serve in any way possible. My spiritual family and my Guru Maharaj Radhanath Swami are far away so serving in vapu is something I really miss. It feels very good. I really hope to be able to increase my desire to serve day by day and that little by little any contamination that can dirty it, stay aside.

Rasarani keeps talking about Peru. She said that she just missed her books and toys here in Chile.

She doesn't separate from her flute and every day she "sings" her melody.

I'm giving her massages almost every night, as you recommended. She loves and asks me to do it.

Madhavi just wants to walk, dance, take the books, babble and now she's smiling a lot.

HpS/ASA - Not ordinary people!

Yvonne Laborda from Spain

I resumed my training certification in Conscious Parenting and Emotional Education by the renowned human therapist and author from Spain, Yvonne Laborda, as soon as I returned from Peru, since both girls keep me in a very active service, and they push me to want to improve day by day.

https://yvonnelaborda.com/ have trained more than 5000 people (mainly mothers). Now, only in her online plataform, we are 2500. She's is vegan, have practiced homeschooling and unschooling with to her three children; her daughter wrote her own book already with 15 years old. She beleives that we are souls, and in the reencarnation. She lives nearby Barcelona. I think that a meeting between both of you could be Super wonderful for your respective communities.

HpS/ASA - You can see that we just bought the ticket for Spain.

Anyway, I hope I can become the mom that each of them needs, and maybe, in the future, I can support other mothers in conscious parenting.

Farewell

Maharaja I don't want to take more of your valuable time., I just want to express my gratitude.

I'm truly grateful for your kind and gestures. It has been very important to me.

Please excuse any offense.

Your servant.
