Hare Krishna!

Please accept my humble obeisances, and all glories to Srila Prabhupada!


Dear Maharaja,


I've made a final decision that I would like to be your disciple. When I cried for a guru, I was lead to you. When I fervently prayed to Srila Prabhupada to be of service, I was lead to you.

Maharaja, if you will accept me, I would like to serve your instructions forever. I am also inspired by HG Mahatma Prabhu, for siksa. He is helping me a lot with chanting better japa. And then I came to the conclusion that this is actually helping me to follow your instructions of enthusiastic rounds.

And by your mercy I am able to go to the full morning program. So it finally dawned on me, that this is everyone working together to serve Srila Prabhupada!

I will take your instructions very seriously and follow them to the best of my ability, one day at a time. Following your instructions makes me look forward to the next day ahead!

Also, I am inspired by HH Tamal Krishna Goswami, HH Kesava Bharati Swami, HH Radhanatha Swami, and HH Sivarama Swami.

Then I remembered you saying you only get one diksa, and have as many siskas as possible. So they are all helping me serve you, if you will accept me.

Plus you have said that we should not wait to serve Srila Prabhupada. I am ready to become your disciple as soon as possible! It's time to leave this world! By spreading the message of Lord Caitanya, of course.

I'm very much looking forward to being a monkey in Houston, and also in Tennessee too! What a great opportunity!

Your aspiring servant

Jason


Jaya Srila Prabhupada!


HpS - !! Hare Krsna... If you have been steady in your Japa, 4-principles, passed the disciple course and have a letter of thumbs-up from Temple President, then yes, you should be initiated. Any Diksa guru in Iskcon is just a little representative of Srila Prabhupada and he may be only a minor Siksa guru to his Diksa disciples. Usually there is a natural concurrence of Diksa guru as a Siksa guru.

So, when we get back to Houston, March 7th, or sooner if don't resolve our visa problem, then we could have initiation ceremony in Houston for Jason and a local couple.

Swaaa Haaa!


What do you do in Krsna Kulture?

Tomorrow is Gita Jayanti!

times in new asoka van

Haré krishna Gurudev pamhr, tlgaSP,dandavats pranams


Krishna nos pone en situaciones distintas en la vida todo el tiempo y todas ellas son un regalo para nuestro aprendizaje constante. podemos ver la misericordia de muchas maneras y aprender a vivir como devotos siguiendo a Srila Prabhupa y los acaryas.


Estamos viviendo con ud. Casi 3 meses en Santa Eulalia en Nueva Asoka van ocupandonos en la adoracion a la deidad, programas online, lectura, limpieza, cocina, colectando frutos, recepción de invitados, etc y somos afortunados porq nada de esto fue planeado pero tenemos Capacidad y Voluntad para servir. Todos tenemos la oportunidad de servir, ud. dice q cada uno de nosotros tiene un papel en este sankirtan, en su servicio y (nadie tiene un papel pequeño en una obra), somos parte de algo tan maravilloso como es el movimiento de sankirtan de Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu por lo tanto debemos de sentirnos afortunados desde donde te encuentras. Despues de 5, 10, 20 años tendriamos q haber establecido una relacion con Srila Prabhupada dice ud. y realizo q mi relacion con Prabhupada es atraves de ud. de su asociacion y asi podemos seguir obteniendo la misericordia de todo el param para hasta llegar a Krihsna, es un hecho, no estamos solos no importa si todos se van si abandonan sus cuerpos, estaremos unidos siempre atraves de vani y vapu siguiendo su herencia y legado asi como ud sigue a Prabhupada, Bhakti swarupa Damodara y otros.

Todavia tenemos mucho por hacer la pelicula esta rodandose y aun faltan escenas y lugares por grabar es nuestro deseo seguir ayudandolo en su sankirtan mi esposa Radharani gopi dd vendra en Enero y como comunicadora social podria tambien ayudarlo en todo este proyecto q tenemos.

En las noches cantamos a Tulasi y en un verso de la cancion dice (por favor dame el privilegio de servicio devocional y hazme tu propio sirviente) Este es el deseo de todo aquel q esta comprendiendo el proposito de la vida, servir a los devotos, tomar, refugio y asociacion y hacer la vida un exito.

Estamos Consolidando cosas dice ud. y todos debemos de hacerlo tambien porq la muerte viene con el cuerpo y es un buen amigo para el devoto, no tenemos miedo porq ser libre de la naturaleza material es el paso para la verdadera vida, sin embargo en esta practica espiritual es fundamental cerrar círculos y Consolidar, consolidarnos cono devotos para volver a casa a Goloka Vrindavan.


Hare krishna Gurudev y gracias..!

I will do (Hare) Krishna, Gurudev pamhr, tlgaSP, dandavats pranams

Krishna puts us in different situations in life all the time and all of them are a gift for our constant learning. We can see mercy in many ways and learn to live as devotees by following Srila Prabhupa and the acaryas.

We are living with you. Almost 3 months in Santa Eulalia in Nueva Asoka we are busy worshiping the deity, online programs, reading, cleaning, cooking, collecting fruits, receiving guests, etc. and we are fortunate because none of this was planned but we have the Capacity and Will to to serve. We all have the opportunity to serve, you. He says that each of us has a role in this sankirtan, in its service and (no one has a small role in a work), we are part of something as wonderful as Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's sankirtan movement therefore we must feel ourselves lucky from where you are. After 5, 10, 20 years we should have established a relationship with Srila Prabhupada, you say. and I realize that my relationship with Prabhupada is through you. of their association and so we can continue to obtain the mercy of all the param until we reach Krihsna, it is a fact, we are not alone it does not matter if everyone leaves if they abandon their bodies, we will always be united through vani and vapu following their inheritance and legacy just like you follow Prabhupada, Bhakti swarupa Damodara and others.

We still have a lot to do, the film is being shot and there are still scenes and places to shoot, it is our desire to continue helping him in his sankirtan. My wife Radharani gopi dd will come in January and as a social communicator she could also help him in all this project that we have.

At night we sing to Tulasi and in a verse of the song it says (please give me the privilege of devotional service and make me your own servant) This is the desire of everyone who is understanding the purpose of life, to serve the devotees, take refuge and association and make life a success.

We are consolidating things, you say. and we must all do it too because death comes with the body and is a good friend for the devotee, we are not afraid because being free from material nature is the step to true life, however in this spiritual practice it is essential to close circles and Consolidate, consolidate ourselves as devotees to return home to Goloka Vrindavan.

Hare Krishna Gurudev and thank you ..!


HpS - Thank you. AgtSP. paoho. We see your good self, all the devotees in New Ashoka van... and we think that they are so much more advanced than we were at their age!!

It make us smile.

How nice, sincere... !! are the devotees. All we can do it so try to do something. Make our best effort to do something useful and intelligent, and the success depends on Krsna and also... the sincerity of the audience, no?

We hope that our Visa situation gets adjusted and Radharani and your child can visit. That would be very nice. Yet, it is very nice to see her name in the list of participants each night online!!!

My dear Maharaja,

Namaste! Jai Shri Ram! Jai Hanuman!


:> HpS - Hare Krsna!!! BG 4.34.


I have had extraordinary experiences in the path of Bhakti. Whenever I go to Iskcon temple kirtans, I meditate on kirtans and reach extraordinary state of bliss. Tears will flow, body will shiver, hair will stand etc. I hide them while doing kirtans. Still my problems were not solved.


Our spiritual seeking depends on how we define our problem. My main problem is that I am atma and due to illusion (ignorance), I think that I share the limits of body and mind. The world projected by senses into mind and the contends of my mind seem so real even though I am factually clear that they are not real just like movie on the screen or dream.


I do not share the limits or destiny of the objects which I am aware or I know. My thoughts, images, perceptions, memories and sensations are all limited. That who knows, with which they are known and in which they appear does not share their limits. It does not arise when they arise. It does not evolve when they change. It does not vanish when they vanish.


My problem is ignorance or illusion. My life has been journey of removing this ignorance (illusion). Krishna (Paramatma) has sent many teachers to remove this illusion. You are one of my teachers.


I have made tremendous progress in this journey. I am quite confident that this journey of from unreal to real, from ignorance (darkness) to knowledge (light) and from death (identification with changing objects) to immortality (unchanging being) will reach destination.


Thank you for all your help and guidance and being my teacher.


With namaskars and prayers,

Gaurav Mittal


HpS - Thank you. AGTSP!!!! Sorry could not answer sooner. If you read our news here and in the Kapi Dhvaja you can see our packed schedule. Eg. we should have left five minutes ago, 3PM to water the garden, but squeezed in this letter with great delight!!! Wanted to open it for a long time.

Then at 3.30PM we are recording more for our movie... Etc.

Hare Krsna!!


Move ahead. Please read Kapi Dhvaja.

Dear Maharaja,

Thank you for your invitation!

Yes I would love to serve you for your upcoming trip to Houston, and possibly Tennessee, too!


I'm still chanting 16 rounds and doing service at the temple. Also, Last week I went out on books, and had a very nice time talking with people, singing in the Kirtan,and a few books went out too.

And one Spanish speaking lady came to Krishna Culture wanting one book, and left with 5! Jaya Srila Prabhupada!


Hare Krishna!

HpS - Thank you for the Whatsapp dialogs also. Here is 6-times better in some respects because we can coordinate our Sankirtan effort.

You report is super.

Please tell us about the staff, managers, et al of Krsna Culture in some future letter!!


We are struggling with our Visa and may have to adjust our travel dates, but 7th March looks like our most probably date of return to USA with the ASA crew.
