Letter of obeisance

nama om visnu padaya Krishna presthaya bhu-tale srimate Hanumat Presaka Svamin iti namine.

All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gouranga .

Pranam Gurudeva

I am sorry for not connecting my revered guru so long. Really I am such an unfortunate unfit servant who is unable to include in the active list among your disciples. Forgive me for this.

As usual I am carrying on association with the advanced devotees and hearing from them Bhagavatam and Bhagavat Gita. At present my close associates are HHBAHD Goswasmi Maharaj, HG Banamali Prabhu and HG Ramanuja Prabhu. This time I am unable to go to the temple because of pandemic corona. I converted my home as a temple and hearing online classes . I never forget your advice " All we need is to get and give good association. Institution will follow from that".

Maharaj myself, Nichinta nityai dd and some other of our temple are not getting 2nd initiation. When it will be is under your divine mercy and arrangements and this is for the service of the Lord.

Lastly I pray to the Almighty for your good health so as to enable you to help in the mission of Prabhu Pada.


Hanumat Presaka Maharaj ki Jai.


Yours unfit servant

[PC] Aventuras...

3 years, 4 months ago by nicole_silva in Personal Sadhana Reports

Querido Maharaja, es un gusto tremendo saludarlo y poder contactarme con usted por este medio. Siempre agradecida de esta hermosa oportunidad que nos brinda. ¡Hare Krsna!


Primero que todo, agradecerle por sus respuestas en la carta anterior. Cada palabra me hace mucho sentido y agradezco mucho cada una de ellas. Cuando leo sus respuestas siempre entro en un humor de mucha admiración, ternura y alegría. ¡GRACIAS INFINITAS! 💟


Habían muchas cosas que quería contarle en la carta anterior. Ahora voy con la segunda parte de mis aventuras 😅


¡Estoy de vacaciones por fin! Hahaha... Necesitaba mucho descansar, desconectarme del trabajo, y darme un tiempo para volver a comenzar. Tiendo a ser una persona que necesita mucha rutina y estructura (Tambien harto Pitta hay en mí), y cuando esa estructura no está, se desmorona todo dentro y fuera de mí (Me ha pasado este último tiempo, y como he funcionado a "piloto automático", todo ha estado muy inestable en mi interior).


He comenzado a leer hartos libros interesantes en relación al poder de los hábitos ("Atomic Habits" de James Clear es excelente!) y cómo el mantener estos buenos hábitos nos ayuda día a día a lograr nuestros propósitos. Cuando comencé a leer recordé la palabra "Sadhana".

Y hablando de eso, he vuelto a mi "sadhana" (lentamente), con la intención, por supuesto, de retomar mi estandar "ideal", adoptando buenos hábitos.


Tengo 3 bellas Tulasis a mi cuidado. Son una verdadera bendición. Llegaron hace un año como semillas las cuales hice brotar y cuidé desde pequeñas. Mi humilde servicio es cantarles, hablarles con amor, regarlas y mantenerlas cómodas en estas latitudes tan frías (Gracias a Krsna sobrevivieron el invierno de Chile 🙌).


Por otro lado, justo hoy cuando leímos en el FMP a la Reina Kunthi, se reflexionó sobre el cuerpo material. Este último tiempo he sido muy descuidada con mi cuerpo físico. Por lo que, con las vacaciones me he propuesto mantener ciertas acciones (Gracias al Ayurveda 💖

) que me permiten cuidar de mejor manera este cuerpo, alimentándolo bien, fortaleciéndolo, desarrollándolo de manera sana y, finalmente, amándolo. Al final, el cuerpo material es de Krsna, por lo tanto, hay que cuidarlo y servirlo, no?


Esperó no haber alargado mucho la carta 😋

! Muchas gracias por todo, Maharaja!!! Espero Krsna me permita poder ir a visitarlo a donde esté 🤗! Que Nrisimhadev lo protega eternamente.


¡Radhe Radhe!

Se despide su eterna y agradecida sirvienta,


Bh. Nicole.

Dear Maharaja, it is a tremendous pleasure to greet you and to be able to contact you by this means. Always grateful for this beautiful opportunity that it gives us. Hare Krsna!


First of all, thank you for your answers in the previous letter. Each word makes a lot of sense to me and I am very grateful for each one of them. When I read your answers I always get into a mood of great admiration, tenderness and joy. INFINITE THANKS! 💟


HpS - ASA - AgtSP!! paoho.


There were many things I wanted to tell you in the previous letter. Now I'm going with the second part of my adventures 😅


I'm on vacation at last! Hahaha... I really needed to rest, disconnect from work, and give myself some time to start over. I tend to be a person who needs a lot of routine and structure (I also have a lot of Pitta in me), and when that structure is not there, everything falls apart inside and outside of me (It has happened to me lately, and since I have functioned as a "pilot automatic", everything has been very unstable inside me).


I've started reading lots of interesting books about the power of habits ("Atomic Habits" by James Clear is excellent!) and how maintaining these good habits helps us achieve our goals every day. When I started reading I remembered the word "Sadhana".


And speaking of which, I have returned to my "sadhana" (slowly), with the intention, of course, of returning to my "ideal" standard, adopting good habits.


I have 3 beautiful Tulasis in my care. They are a true blessing. They arrived a year ago as seeds which I sprouted and took care of since I was little. My humble service is to sing to them, speak to them with love, water them and keep them comfortable in these cold latitudes (Thanks to Krsna they survived the winter in Chile 🙌).


On the other hand, just today when we read Queen Kunthi in the FMP, she reflected on the material body. This last time I have been very careless with my physical body. So, with the holidays I have proposed to maintain certain actions (Thanks to Ayurveda 💖) that allow me to take better care of this body, feeding it well, strengthening it, developing it in a healthy way and, finally, loving it. In the end, the material body belongs to Krsna, therefore, you have to take care of it and serve it, right?


ASA - Yes!


He hoped he hadn't lengthened the letter too much 😋


! Thank you very much for everything, Maharaja!!! I hope Krsna allows me to visit him wherever he is 🤗! May Nrisimhadev protect him eternally.


Radhe Radhe!


He says goodbye to his eternal and grateful servant,

Bh. Nicole.


ASA - Jaya!!! 16-nice rounds!!!! Step by step!!!

Let us read another letter!!



Kapi Dhvaja - 2nd March 2022

3 years, 4 months ago by Patrak das in Special Category A

Hare Krishna, Dear Guru Maharaja!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada & All glories to you.

Please accept my humble obeisances. (PAMHO)

 

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 Krsna!!!

We started classes today... We had a very nice welcome for the students... They are very happy to back to school...

This Friday my group (1st grade) will have a special welcome ceremony. This is a very important event for the school. The kids will meet their teacher for the next 6 years... I prepared some gifts for them. And after the ceremony I have to tell them a story, I create, about this event. I take a commitment with them and they accept me as their teacher.


My sadhana is good. I can keep this rhythm since our classes start a little bit late. My health is ok. We are getting more fixed in our diet (mood of goodness).



EDT (Patrak das & Antuanette)


"...If it is too much burden, let us adjust so that it does not molest your other work..."

Ptrk -- It is never too much.. we are very happy and grateful for this wonderful service. Actually, we are always waiting for this bulletin.


"...We are too weak now to always use the computer, so writing the Kapi Dhvaja manually was a great opportunity..."

EDT -- Yes!! Whatever is easier and practical for you. We can try and experiment.


"....Send me your whatsapp phone number here. We lost our address book, I will not publish it, and then we can send a copy of the TPP to you for your review..."


HpS - Got it! Will Whatsapp you. Talk with you!!!

Hinduism research in Oxford

Hare Krishna Maharaj


PAMHO & AGTSP


I ask about a Oxford research from Oxford University that you mencion on your classes. This professor give very positives comentaries about the Bhagavat Purana. I need know the name and where I can get this quotes to use in my academic studies.


Ys,

Maha Krsna |Nam das


HpS - AGTSP - paoho. I was probably quoting a personal comment that Professor Narasimha Rao made to Radhika ramana Das.

That would not be too useful in rigorous academic work.

Prof. David Haberman's Introduction to his commentary on Bhakti rasa amrta sindu is tremendous.
