All Glories Srila Prabhupada and Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Sankirtan movement.

We are grateful to the Supreme Personality of Godhead Govinda for allowing us his association and being able to aspire to become Vaisnavas. After being absent for some time I was thinking and reflecting on how to be a better servant, and I understood that work and external effort only generate anxiety and disturbance of the mind. Addicted to coffee my intelligence was confused but by causeless mercy we are restored to stable service through the study of Srimad Bhagavatam and 16 Rounds. Now we are starting Bhaktivaibhava third canto with Radhika Nagar Prabhu and our intelligence is getting purified. Seeing Oka Humility of Vidura, your classes are good reference to study and have a good understanding.

HpSwami / ASA --- AgtSP!! Paoho. We must echo a lot of what you say.

We have not been able to answer posts here in the Blog, your posts, even though we want to.

No coffee but too many popsicles.

Now we are in Spain, rural community like your Monterrey community but older.

So much they have learned.

Hope you all can visit here sometime and Yadu Swami and others visit you.

The world is obviously terrrible, so, so many people are looking for solution.

You have it.

We have it.

We were able to form a Civil Association, New Govardhana Montemorelos, before the Mexican government thanks to the help of members dedicated to obtaining results (Guna Vira Prabhu and Bhakta Diego). We are the president, secretary and treasurer. There are lifelong members who contribute monthly financially. Next October, Prabhu Hari Cakra, a disciple of Prabhupada, will be arriving. He is in Malaga, Spain, but he feels a responsibility to PREACH in Latin America and wants us to distribute books and join forces to establish a strong program in Montemorelos.

ASA -- Hope you can get at least one more person to be Secretary/Treasurer!!!

Our agricultural system is working with little effort and a lot of results. The restaurant and the hostel are getting better and better. We are importing Chef Narayan Para Prabhu from Argentina. Our spiritual brother is interested in vending. He will come to Monterrey to work in the restaurant.

ASA - He is also champion Judo teacher!!

Gurudeva, I miss you very much and at any moment I will look for you at Radha Kunda and listen to your kirtan. Please forgive my offenses. I am maturing and understanding the great treasure of Bhakti.

I am reporting my activities to the GBC and I thank you for appreciating my enthusiasm and emphasizing that action is better than inaction. Or passion than ignorance. The holy name provides the nutrients to cultivate goodness and serve better.

Family life is like a fortress that protects me and helps me stay safe. With the constant occupation and supervision of my wife I can be morally exemplary. Without a doubt, I appreciate the Grihasta ashram more than ever. I have many memories and advice that I keep in my heart and I am eternally grateful to you for OPENING MY EYES WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND WISDOM.

HpS - 🐵 👍 👍 👍

Let's continue. Making plans and arrangements to conquer and continue the fight in Sankirtan, we understand that ISKCON is a young institution with ancient knowledge and we are understanding our position, I am slow to understand but I do not give up in my process, I just need time to think and have a better perspective.

HpS - 😃 We remember that Srila Prabhupada said, "So, you can make plans for serving Krsna, but better to just chant Hare Krsna.".

Plans for Sankirtan!!!

16/4 for Sankirtant ❣ ❗

We are grateful and we are here to serve you.

Your aspiring servant, the fallen Gadadhara Gosai Das of Mexico.

Hare Krishna Gurudeva.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada..AGTHPS.

Dear Guru Maharaj,

I am Nicinta Nityai devi dasi from Manipur. I had dearly wished to be at Radhakunda for your darshan, but due to my poor health, I am unable to make the journey.

Please accept my humble obeisances from afar. I had been engaging in my loving devotional service from home, chanting and Srimad bhagavatam class to the best of my ability. I pray that you are also in good health by the mercy of the Lord.

Your servant

HpSwami--AgtSP. Please accept our humble obeisances.

Thank you so much for this news.

We hope to meet you soon and repeatedly.

All glories, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada, to His Holiness B. S. Damodara Swami, who has and is our doorway to the wonderful Vaisnava land of Manipur, Assam etc.

Thank you.

Krsna is certainly watching you and purifying you to participate in His eternal lilas and maybe you will have important part directly in Nabadvipa in some universe in your next birth and others of us!

Our body and laziness also make letter writing slow, we are all together in Hari kirtan.

Please send photo of your self, altar, yatra!

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja!

Please accept my respectful obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

It's a great pleasure for me to receive your association in Nueva Vrajamandala, a beautiful place and tremendous Vaishnava community project. I'm very happy for this new opportunity that God gives me to be close to you.

Below I'm writing the report of the first visit of Radhika Raman Das to Chile (Professor Ravi Gupta) from October 23 to 26, your disciple who is now in charge of leading the academic preaching of NIOS. Radhika Raman came to Chile accompanied by his family, his wife Amrita Keli, their two children and his father Ananta Rupa.

HpSwami ASA--He is 'in charge of'?

We had not heard this.

Is it a post given by President, Directors?

There are so many nice preachers in NIOS, including you.

Of course, Prof. Ravi Gupta is a unique example!

None of us would like to work in NIOS without his energy!

🐂👍👍👍

Your disciple Arjuna Das again naturally took charge of the leadership of the coordination and management for the events at the universities, IF and Iskcon Chile.

On Thursday, October 24th at noon, the first talk was held at Universidad Católica. There was no audience, so Radhika Raman decided to change the format and instead of giving the conference, a very entertaining conversation spontaneously developed between him and Claudia Lira about the main topic “Ecology and the Sacred” and other related topics. Vishvanatha from Dhatri school of yoga was the translator. Lily Jiménez, professor at Universidad de Chile in the area of ​​Art and Religious Studies and from the Center for Judaic Studies, also participated. I met professor Lily in 2018 just a week after “Art and the Sacred.” She is a student and active participant in Dhatri and that time when she told me that her specialty is religious art, we connected and wanted to work together someday.

Same Thursday by night, the conference “Ecology and the Sacred, the care of the environment from the ancestral Vaishnava philosophy” was held at IF. Vishvanatha was the translator. Your disciple Jagad Guru Das was the host. Your disciples Manjuali Devi Dasi and her husband Lalita Madhava Das were in charge of the cocktail and once again surprised everyone with a luxurious prasadam. There were about 70 people in the audience, most of them new people, some influential people, businessmen, academics, artists. The conference was held at a new IF headquarters in Las Condes, an upper middle class area in Santiago, near to the Las Condes Cultural Center where we produced the "Psychology and the sacred" in 2016 and one of the days of the "Art and te Sacred" in 2018

On Friday 25th at noon the conference “Ecology and the Sacred, principles of environmental care from a Vaishnava theology, theoretical and methodological perspectives” was held at the Faculty of Social Sciences of Universidad de Chile, thanks to the efforts of Professor Lily Jiménez and her friend, Professor of Anthropology Francisco Araos, who is focused on the practical development of the concept of Conservation Anthropology, focusing on research and dissemination of the human dimensions of biodiversity conservation. About ten students from this school came. Your well-wisher Sruti Priya Devi Dasi was the translator.

We had very little time to do the production and promotion. I found out at the end of August that Radhika Raman was coming to Chile to organize these events. So, although the participation at the universities was very low, I consider that the events were successful. With better organization and more time for production and adequate economic resources, we will be able to organize larger events with Professor Ravi Gupta, including a tour of Chile visiting different universities.

In any case, academic events have ceased to be attractive in Chile, as we have been told by professors from different universities with whom we have a relationship, even important events organized by the same university have very low attendance, is the tendency after pandemic. Perhaps it's necessary to think about and design a new strategy for academic preaching.

After the Universidad de Chile we went to the temple to take prasadam and during the afternoon Amrita Keli mataji gave a conference about Homeschooling at Iskcon Chile and after Gaura Arati Radhika Raman gave the Bhagavad-gita class.

On Saturday 26th, after Mangalarati and Govinda, Radhika Raman gave the Srimad Bhagavatam class, the temple was almost full. After breakfast we took the whole family to get their luggage and for a sightseeing tour of different attractive places, such as the Church of the Dominicans and San Cristobal Hill. They got on the cable car, they seemed happy and enthusiastic about getting to know a little of the city quickly, because then we took them to the airport to take their flight back to Utah.

The congregation in Chile greatly appreciate Radhika Raman and his family, they are lovely and he had a very positive impact on the teachers and scholars with whom he had direct contact during the conferences. Radhika Raman is a very special devotee, he is a genius and a very loving and humble human being, and he is also a master, he is a Guru.

Ananta Rupa Das stay at Iskcon Chile until Friday November 15.

Thank you very much Guru Maharaja for the opportunity to do this service and allow me to associate with such special devotees.

Please accept my respectful obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Your aspiring servant,

Carlos.

ASA - Thank you for this fantastic journalism.

If you continue like this Krsna will kidnap you and you will become one of the Newscaster green parrots on Vrndavana?

Krsna will decide when to send the people, massive crowds,

🐂🐂🐄🦍🦍👺🌞🌴🌴🐒🐕🐒🐵,

our job is to be academically prepared to receive them, and invite them as best we can?

Dear Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances To your lotus feet! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

All glories To You!!🙏💥🌻🌼🌷🏵🌸💐🌹🌺

I hope you are doing very well and that you had a beautiful month of Kartika! and so many festivals! I am immensely grateful for your wonderful answers. I feel somewhat relieved to know that my relationship with you is eternal and that I will be able to see you again! Even though I cannot travel to see you now. I will always continue forward with even more strength thanks to your Immaculate mercy.

HpS-ASA - Please send a one minute audio clip of your Japa!

Thank, agtSP, you.

Thank you for your instructions in my dear Dance service💕

I always heard about this Bhisma Pancaka fast that begins today on this Uthama Ekadasi. Could you tell me what is good to do these days? Is it a grain fast? And to break Ekadasi?... Thank you for your answer and time.

HpS/ASA - We understand that Bhismadeva only lived on air or water and Hari kirtan for five days, but devotees like us maybe just more strict with regular ISKCON Damodara service, and maybe after breakfast with some piece of chapati do ekakasi prasad for five days etc.

May I continue dancing happily in the wonderful dust of Your Lotus feet, dear Gurudev, eternal thanks.

Your servant eternal: J.P.Radha Devi Dasi

P.D : Here I am sending you photos of the drawings and arts that my Gopal💕🎶

I made you in clay! My first deity of You Gurudeva🙏🌷🌼🌻🙏

I think they are wonderful! I hope to be able to cultivate his arts and be a good mother to him.

HpS - Inspiring sculptures and drawings.

Hope his art develops from his heart.

Any work from Swami Franco?

Hare Krishna GuruMaharaja!

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Thank you so much for everything you are giving to us

Is not only words, but it comes from the gratitude that I feel every day for the help you are giving us from the beginning to this family that is trying with your inspiration to continue this process of Krishna consciousness.

We've already moved to the mountains, it's been a pretty busy few months organizing the new place with four kids. Now we have a little more time, the first thing is to thank you eternally for this mercy towards me

My sadana continues the same, fighting to finish the rounds and the worship of my deities the rest of the day is to bring these children forward.

I would like to have a phone call one day if possible.

We are praying to Krishna not to let me forget him and

that one day my Gurudeva will feel proud of me

Your servant

Murari das

HpSwami/ASA - Desculpa, tlgaSP, la demora responder.

Our body and brain 70% deaf, dumb, dead.

Our parents, Srila Prabhupada, have made us better men than they were.

We are doing the same!

Muchas gracias su noticias.

Espero you are making friendship with your neighbors in the mountain.

If you follow us on Twitter [X] you will know we are in New Vraja Mandala until December 3.

Maybe we can call with Jayanta das.

You seem to be a really, very sincere servant of Srila Prabhupada.

Thank you!

Your association is healthy for us and everyone.

Post some art 🎨 from the kids.

🦍👍👍👍

Hare Krishna Gurumaharaja,

please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Jaya Guru and Gauranga!

We had a wonderful ceremony, series of programs and the installation of H. H. Gopal Krishna Goswami’s samadhi last weekend. So many incredible stories were told and deep appreciations expressed and sincere glorifications. Very purifying and uplifting to say the least.

Thinking of you in Radha Kund all the time and trying to be there in spirit.

In the process of making Govardhan Hill in our yard. Inspired by something you said in a class years back. It’s changing our relationship with the land here. One of our all time favorite pastimes. Going deeper into it..

Trying to stay off the mental platform like the song suggests “one toke over the line sweet Jesus”.

Feeling connected to you when I chant and pray sometimes.

All 5 movies that you made are such wonderful recourses and conservation starters. We want to watch them again and again and share them.

Thank you, Gurumaharaja.

your aspiring servant,

Nitisara das

HpSwami/ASA -- Trying to respond to this post for weeks!

Hope our posts on Twitter are enlightening.

Guess you know we are still in Spain.

Ten to thirty enthusiastic participants in FMS daily.

Then day is super.

Chances to become practical members of Lord Caitanya’s movement.

Boise city as a community is kind of an illusion, no?

It is shared effort to supply utilities, water, electricity, no?

Traffic facilities.

No one knows each other.

No village life.

Temple must be oasis in the desert for many.

How was Govardhana Puja?

Build high your Hill?

Then you can offer people the chance to jump off it and go back home, back to godhead for some economical price, no?

😄
