Letters to the editor

ASA Wrote to Sriman Rupanuga:

[4:21 PM, 11/9/2021] Hp Swami: Hare Krsna. We have been working so hard to keep our basic spiritual, mental and physical health. They are al quite good, improved. The proximate link is a 3rd class, but effective, video that I made of the Ashrama. This weekend we improved the recording studio by 75% with improved lighting etc.  Thank you for the photos!!!!  Do you have time for consulting a very nice, senior Brahmacari in Houston about his health. We can organize or join a tele-conference.

[4:25 PM, 11/9/2021] Hp Swami: Then there is the review of the Sankhya book. Have you read it much? Does i relate to your source materials?  Kunja-bihari will be coming in a few weeks from BsAs. I think he contacted you before. He is full MD and has been doing a lot of study and clinical practice in Ayuveda. We start work before that and then all sit together when he is here, if not before that and consolidate the work in Ayuveda from our, Anjana Suta Academy, perspective, before we move on (to Houston (to Radha-kunda))?

[4:27 PM, 11/9/2021] Hp Swami: The owner normally charges $2,000 per month for this Sta Eulalia ashrama, but when she heard about the kind of project that we are doing she gave it for only $1,500/month. 🙄 She will return from and Art Show in Paris next week and wants to see if we can include her Ramayana puppets in our movie. Thank you.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

All glories to SS Hanumatpresaka Swami

Please accept my humble bows to your lotus feet Guru Maharaja,

Gurudeva, thank you for reading my previous letter https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/12735/, the president of the Nueva Nilacala Mandir temple, Govinda Charana Das in Guadalajara, sends his greetings, as well as that he hopes he is in good health. 

On October 31, the snana yatra took place, in which we participated in collaboration with the brahmanas, making the juices, teas, the bath and on November 13 it will be ratha yatra, for which we will have the visit of three Gurus; S.s Guru Prasad Swami, S.s Bhakti Sundar Goswami and S.s Bir Krishna Das Goswami.

Usually the Sunday after ratha yatra the fire ceremonies are performed for the initiations. Talk to the brahmana who will perform them. If you agree, it could be Sunday, November 14, in the presence of one of the gurus. We could have a session by Zoomo, a video call, one day before or early the same day for the delivery of the Gayatri, as you decide Gurudeva.

HpS - It should be right after the fire sacrifice. A local Brahmana can sit with you while we do it. Very nice!

My Sadhana: Chant 16 rounds, follow the 4 principles, get up to Mangala arati, attend deities at home, (Radha syamasundar, Govinda, Nrsimhadeva, Jhagannat, Balarama and Subhadra and Lord Gouranga) Sing a little morning and afternoon, read a little and some sankirtana at work.

Seva: Putting away the deities' clothes once a week, and at festivals, ironing Srila Prabhupada clothes and bathing him once a week, helping to prepare the Abhishek, cooking for the Deity occasionally.

HpS - Thank you. We need a letter of recommendation for the Temple President. You can upload it here as a Jpeg file.

Then write to us with the exact information for the time of the call after the Yajna.

Hare Krsna, Gurudeva, por favor ecepte mis humildes reverencia.

Continuamos atendiendo a Goura Nitay cada mañana, apoyando regularmente en el templo y manteniendo el programa de harinam que lo retomamos despues de las fiestas intensas en el templo.

En nuestro ultimo harinam muchas personas ofrecieron mechitas a Sri Damodar. Algunas mañanas me conecto al FMP para tomar asociacion de los vaisnavas.

El 3 de enero estamos llegando a Lima y posiblemente el 5 estamos yendo a tomar su santa asociacion previa coordinacion con p. Abirram.

Si krsna me permite tambien tengo pensado ir a vrindavan por unos meses para la fecha que usted tiene planeado llegar.

Me volvieron a invitar para ir el proximo año a new vrindavan y solo me falta en donde usted afirme que soy su discipulo (iniciado en agosto del 2006 y tome segunda en octubre del 2009) podria enviarme ese carta a mi correo rohinikXXXXXXXXXXX.

Perdone mis ofensas Gurudeva y gracias por siempre ocuparme en servicio y mantenerme inspirado.

Su eterno sirviente, Rohini Kumar Das

HpS - We are looking forward to seeing you after so long. We hope your help in our little Sankirtan. We just sent the letter. We don't have your second initiation information in our data-base. We hope to add it.

Thank you.

Hare Krishna, Dear gurudeva!!!!!!!!!!!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All glories to you.

Please accept our obeisances.

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 Krishna!!!

4P, 16R, worshipping, reading. Keeping a good sadhana.

HpS/ASA - I bet Patraka is glad to hear that. He needs all the "Dases", servants, he can get in the service of Krsna. Prabhupada said that Krsna is conquered by the love of one who has conquered his senses!!

Still planning what to do next year. Thanks to Krsna we have good job offers. But as you said before: "How will this help me chant better rounds! ". I keep this advice in mind.

ASA - Thanks for reminding us!

We have some time to think and see what is best for us.

Health is ok. Our diet is getting better, more food in mode of goodness.

Family is fine. Yesterday we celebrate Govardhan puja... It was nice to see my family involve in this event.

Thanks a lot for this Wonderful bulletin.

EDT (Patrak das & Antuanette )

HpS - We went to Chosika for the festival on Friday. Just us four and Temple devotees. It was wonderful. Did three hours of filming.

Thank you so much for your enthusiastic help.

So, much!!!
