HpS - ASA - AGTSP!!! Was very, very nice to sit with you and talk about everything. We would like to hear about any progress you make in deciding to take another six year commitment to teaching the children.

How can the Waldorf community appreciate Sri Gauranga?

Brother Ass's eyes are failing.

We push them a little now to write this DTC.

We wanted to talk with many devotees today but was not possible.

• Morning program!
• Hawaii class. Is essential for being healthy member of ISKCON.
• Working with Raul Z. O. for the DTC-UT.
• Packing for trip to Sta. Eulalia tomorrow.

Very difficult being in foreign country. Of course, the really, really big foreign situation is being in the external energy. 🙂

Finally able to get to some Blog letters.

Got three rounds to go.

Power was out twice this evening.

KRSNA KRSNA, KRSNA KRSNA, KRSNA KRSNA, KRSNA HE!

We really want to help devotees individually but can't do much. We only have to two hands and body is getting old, yet we can say that if you just surrender to the Holy Names, they will give you all enteligence how to fight for Krsna.

😐

Hari bolo!

See you tomorrow.

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

Maharaja, we look forward to your positive consideration of our request and your kind confirmation at the earliest possible.

AgtSP paoho.

We are sad that we could not respond to this topic earlier inspite of all you effort to engage us. Of course, we want to participate. We feel that we could talk very nicely about Maharaja and the tangible results we are getting even to this day by following his path

but... 10AM in India 15th October, will be 11.30PM here in Peru.

Of course it will actually be even later than that and I am not sure if we could even get good internet that late. Just this evening the electricity failed twice.

What can we do?

At our age it would be impossible for us to participate that late.

Could we record something?

How?

Your very small servant, HpSwami

Mi querido Gurudeva

Por favor acepte usted mis humildes y respetuosas reverencias, ¿Cómo esta Ud.?, ¿Su salud va bien?

Que gusto poder comunicarme ahora con Usted, por favor perdone mis ofensas.

Cuanto desafío presenta Krsna en la vida, y aún así, es cierto es muy misericordioso, es indudable que ama a sus hijos.

Y por añadidura, Krsna, nos manda un representante suyo, el maestro espiritual, quien es infinitamente amable.

Que Krsna lo proteja Gurudeva, cuídese, cuídese mucho por favor. Es muy bueno tenerlo a usted.

Hare Krsna Rama!!!

Jaya Gurudeva

My dear Gurudeva

Please accept my humble and respectful obeisances. How are you? Is your health doing well?

HpS - So much time has passed and no news from you or your family! 😀 For our age our health is very good. AGTSP! We are in La Perla, Callao and tomorrow go to stay for six months in Sta Aulelia.

What a pleasure to be able to communicate with you now, please forgive my offenses.

How much challenge Krsna presents in life, and yet it is true that he is very merciful, it is undoubted that she loves her children.

And furthermore, Krsna sends us a representative of His, the spiritual master, who is infinitely kind.

May Krsna protect you Gurudeva, take care of yourself, please take good care of yourself. It is very good to have you.

Hare Krsna Rama !!!

Jaya Gurudeva

His disciple.

HpS - How is you daily Japa? Other practices of Srila Prabhupada's yoga? Relishing reading his books?

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !All glories to HH Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj!

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj. Please accept our humble obeisances at Your lotus feet.

HpS - AGTSP! We have lettuce feet now, but maybe you can see our Svarupa, and its feet.

Thank you Guru maharaj for Your kind mercy. We started reading BG with a group of young girls every evening since the last 2 weeks. They are from different parts of India and they are such a great source of inspiration for me. They are chanting every morning through zoom platform. Two of them are from Manipur, one is pursuing Medicine and the other, Law. They come to temple on Sundays. Last Sunday both of them took Srila Prabhupada Lilamrita. Thank you...thank you ..thank you Guru Maharaj ..for this immense mercy.

We continue with our regular Sunday BG classes with HG Ramanuja Das , from 4pm to 6pm , nice study group with about 20 serious devotees, some aspiring to take initiation. We pray to Srila Prabhupada and Guru maharaj that we become Your servant always....if only Guru Maharaj allows ....hurt, wounded, lost,fallen....let it be....but a fighter for You always....and even if defeated ...let me fall at Your lotus feet forever.....again and again!

Still at Canto 4 SB chapter 14....so relevant with the modern times....king on one side ...thieves and rogues on the other side ,exploiting the ones in the middle!!!!

We wait eagerly for Your reply dear Guru Maharaj,

Your ignorant servant always,

Sarad Gaurangi DD

HpS - Jaya!!! Imagine when all those girls, people, become as advanced and occupied in Sankirtan as you are now. They will enlighten the hearts of so many people.

Next we will look for the letters from Isana Das. Please see what he has to say about Manipuri preaching. We hope we can become absorbed in Manipuri Sankirtan.

H. H. B. S. Damodara Swami, Ki Jaya!!!

Hare Krishna

Respected Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

Thank you so much Maharaj for the reply. It is always inspiring to read your words. Although I am insignificant, you are always available to encourage and guide us. I am unable to read all the posts, but at least few I read and get updates. You and your scholarly disciples/ friends/ team are offering a great service in the mission of Srila Prabhupada.

I dont wish to burden you too much and try to keep things short. Because of my past experience, I have given up any thoughts of going to any project under a few devotees. Going to Kolkata reminds me of nightmares I had.

I had started an online credited course with BRC. However I could not submit the projects because of busy schedule. I don't know how much they would be agreeable to take me.

Regarding subject, since I am already pursuing a course in Sanskrit, I would like to complete the same, than entering a completely new arena-history. Krishna willing if I would be able to offer any service for NIOS, it would be my great fortune.

I am sorry for being unable to accept your suggestions and instructions.

I am very grateful to you for offering the expenses. Although I have no support from my temple authorities, there are few friends and well wishers who are supporting me. I hope if I serve the mission of Srila Prabhupada, he would not keep me deprived of my basic necessities.

Few days back I came to Patna. Here there is one devotee Mohan Prabhu, who joined here from Haldia, Kolkata shortly after I came. Sadhana is a little better. Also, few days back 2 brahmacharis from ISKCON Chowpatty came here. They are strongly suggesting that Patna has a huge potential for preaching, so tolerate the difficulties and focus on strong practice of Krishna Consciousness and preach, conduct courses on Gita. Actually a huge marvelous temple is coming up here, that too very much in the heart of the city. It is scheduled to be inaugurated on 14th December, 2021. After inauguration, a huge number of people are expected to visit temple. He suggested to preach together with Mohan Prabhu and there would be preaching explosion.

On the other hand, devotee who has a temple at a village near Sitamarhi is also arriving there on 13th September and do basic repairs and constructions to make it habitable. 2 devotees are also expected to stay there, so I would at least have some association.

And the temple president is asking to take start and take care of a center at Muzaffarpur and he would send some devotees there also. Muzaffarpur is a city in between Patna and Sitamarhi. In case he really starts any center there and offers financial support, I think there is no harm in preaching over there. So, now it appears that I have lost one place- Darbhanga to preach but three more opportunities have come up- Patna, Muzaffarpur and Sitamarhi.

I don't know how things will unfold but I did get some strength by association and encouragement of Chowpatty Brahmacharis- HG Rudranath Prabhu and HG Vrajaraja Priya Prabhu.

I seek your prayers, blessings and association (if you plan to come to India).

Please forgive my mistakes, shortcomings and offenses.

Your insignificant servant

HpS - AgtSP! Thank you for your letter!!! I have been feeling so bad that I have not been able to answer letters from wonderful devotees like your self.

Maybe you can see how much we have been struggling, struggling, struggling with all these diverse aspects of attention to disciples, body, weather, NIOS.

Krsna has been giving us many, many, undeserved opportunities for success in our little Sankirtan efforts and we hope we can show you more results soon.

Of course, we were thinking that it might be ideal for you and NIOS if you could work with the BRC, but we are super, super, happy to hear of the many opportunities that you have which may occupy your abilities to even more utility.

We heard that Bh. Siddhanta Maharaja would recommend Caitanya Caritamrt before Bhagavatam and BG to some people.

We find it is very useful in the beginning. There is so much modern lila in it, demonstrations of SB and BG.

Of course, the proper preaching books are different for different people.

Don't just try to distribute books, but make book distributors, no?

Then we can help the world even more!

Please send news after things become more clear or as we can be of help!!
