Nandini Devi Dasi's Letter of recommendation

Hare Krsna.

paoho

The Sun is at 3.15PM in Sta. Eulalia, Peru.

We finally had some sunshine today.


We try to do all of our service but we make mistakes.

For one hour we have been updating the disciple list in our Guru-tattva file on the web page. We had to find all the initiation letters, dates of birth and civil names and dates of initiations.

Tooks some time but we got everything except for Nandini Devi Dasi's Recommendation letter, and date of birth.

We think it was sent but we cannot find it.

If anyone has it or knows where it is please contact us. Thank you.

Krsna knows everything.

Pranam Prayers for HpS, (2)

Continuing the discussion from https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/13061/, DSD gives translation and some logic.

"Hare krishna Gurudev. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet. AGTSP, GURUDEV AND GOURANGA. 1st praying implies we bow down under our gurudev's lotus feet, our gurudev is so kind to distribute the spiritual knowledge in foreign country in this kaliyuge means present age. OR Our Gurudev is so kind to distribute the Prabhupadas spiritual instruction or teaching throughout the entire world in this kaliyuge means present age. Simply to say, GURUDEV we feel pleasure and egoless bowing down to your kind feet and praying as said. So to have one common and uniform pray, i requested to choice one out of the two. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet Gurudev. Forgive me if find any mistake."


HpSwami - We feel very deeply like one of Srila Prabhupada's "America" Sannyasis.

We are doing our job in an emergency situation, and any illumination of us should be minimal, like the standard pranam mantra in ISKCON or informal.


Such things done in our presence like trying to wash our feet make us feel from uncomfortable to completely panicked eg. run away and hide for one year.


What do you think?


Can post comments in Blog?



Thank you.

Pranam prayers for HpSwami

4 years, 3 months ago by hps in Personal Sadhana Reports, Special Category A

Whatsapp, Sriman Divya-svarupa Das et al:

"Hare krishna. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet Gurudev. We , your devotee belongs to imphal and silchar, do pray to your lotus feet, using the following..

Namo om Vishnu padaye krishna prasthayo bhutale srimate Hanumat presak swamy niti namine, namaste Hanumat presak swamy, namo attyanto dayaluye, kaliyuge pachyatta deshe, Gandharva bidya pradayene. Or. Namo om Vishnu padaye krishna prasthayo bhutale, srimate Hanumat presak swamy nitti namine, namaste Hanumat presak swamy, namo attyanto dayaluye, kaliyuge pashyatta deshe, prabhupadas losatbani pracharaniya tayatte. Gurudev, kindly clearify, which one of the above two prayer is your choice. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet. Hare krishna."


HpS - We do not feel qualified to have any specific prayers glorifying us in Sanskrita. The basic prayer that is offered to Prabhupada and Srila Bh. Siddhanta seems to be more than enough.

What is the English translation of the prayers?

Who write them?

What evidence do they offer to justify them.

(the oriental kings) Report + V.P offering

4 years, 3 months ago by Madhavendra Puri das in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna Gurudeva! pamho, agtSP!!

I 've just read that you were felling a little sick, hope you recover soon. I have not reported for some months, but I always keep following the blog.


HpS - We had flu symptoms, but heart and respirtion fine. Mostly muscle aches. Covid test results were negative, but... guess you read. with no symptoms, pre bolivia flight results were positive, twice.

How ridiculuous, funny, insane. Great chaos in our schedule, but still no symptoms.



I read here that you were looking for translators to translate waves of devotion into Spanish, maybe I could help with that if it is posible, who should i talk to?


HpS - We just posted a report. Set the Category filter to Special Category B and it will show up. It is a great project.


2021 was a long year of quite a bit of change. I just sent you in the annual report about Sadhana. In general, it was a good year with a beautiful company of devotees and carrying out beautiful programs especially focused on children. We are several families with children around here.


The other day when you were commenting about the idea of ​​traveling on a charter with devotees to Spain + India, I was very inspired by the idea of ​​being able to go, and also help you in some way.


HpS - At the current moment I feel like 15% in control of my life and schedule. It seems that Krsna may want us to all to meet in Spain for the last part of September and then go to Kolkata, Manipur, Delhi VRNDAVANA for Kartika. Of course, this is all part of the movie, so Krsna would pay and we work.!!


I hope that at some point I can reach the height of becoming your disciple.


HpS - You are a challenge to me of being a disciple of Srila Prabhupada!


y.s, Madhavendra Puri Das


PD: I attach some photos of a very very nice mantra and meditation workshop I was giving in the Ratha Yatra of Buenos Aires in the end of November, and a closing the year Sound Therapy Group.


HpS - While Jagat guru Das is here we hope to start packaging all this for NIOS/ASA.


V.P Offering:


Dear Gurudeva,


Pamho, AgtSP!!!


On this day of your Vyasa Puja I simply want to thank you for always setting the practical example of Srila Prabhupada's teachings.


Always fixed, stable, loving, a practical example of a spiritually realized person.

Example of how through Vaidhi Bhakti with effort and full dedication to Krishna the highest states of consciousness can be reached.


Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your personal selflessness and your constant desire to help others. Your disciples and humanity in general through different ways of approaching the same message, the message of Krishna consciousness in a way that different types of public can take it.


The feeling is one of full gratitude, since I feel that I give very little in relation to what I receive.

I pray and ask for your blessing and mercy so that I can become your disciple and move forward following your footsteps.

your servant, Madhavendra Puri Das


HpS - 😬 What you see is what Srila Prabhupada has done with a lump of mud.

The Oriental Kings - Vyasapuja Offering 2022

4 years, 3 months ago by divya in Other

om ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā

cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ

 

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ

paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim

yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande

paramānanda-mādhavam

I offer my respectful obeisances unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains. (CC Madhya 17.80)

 

Dear Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to you. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you on this auspicious day of your vysapuja. The best moment of the year has come, when we have to write vysa puja offering. How difficult it becomes to put the thoughts into words. Though we daily sing cakshu – dana dila yei, janme janme prabhu sei. You are my lord birth after birth, still I am unable to glorify youand your unlimited causeless mercy. 

Guru Maharaj you are an ocean of mercy, who, even though I have no special qualification, still accepted me as your disciple and always trying to rescue me from the material distress. 

You never judged the worthiness of your disciples; you just selflessly offered your shelter. You are so approachable and humble and are always so concerned about your disciple’s welfare, spiritually and materially. You are understanding and patient towards your disciple’s material conditioning, you guide them sublimely and engage them in service without enforcing it. You were always there for us when we we were going through such mental pain and agony. You were in constant touch with Srinath Krishna Das, asking about my health and well being and also shared the reason behind what happened. It was a great strength for us as if Krishna is personally present with us in the form of our beloved spiritual master. Despite of the busy schedule you even spoke to me and motivated me. 

Guru Maharaj you have been always there for us whenever we were in need of you, and you made sure we somehow get out of the material distress by giving spiritual advice and making us progress in Bhakti, thus making us go near to Krishna. That was the main reason I was able to stand up and gain strength to fight with this material distress. I am always so inspired and encouraged by your highest standard of devotional practice expecting that someday by your mercy I will be able to follow atleast a part of it. Your simplicity, humility and forgiveness with all other vaishnava qualities is your greatness. 

Guru Maharaj, though I am unqualified still you considered me and gave me second initiation. Please help me so that I may be useful for Krishna’s service and be a nice tool for Krishna.

Dear Guru Maharaj, my heart is full today and I am inshort of words, but still would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting me as your disciple and for being there for me as a spiritual father. If I fall down I know that you will be there to pull me up.

The list of your glorification could be endless. I take this opportunity to thank you for everything, I feel grateful and proud to be your disciple. I pray to Krishna to give me the intelligence to learn to serve you always with enthusiasm and determination. Thank you for giving me the shelter in this material world. May you spend a beautiful birthday. I humbly beg for your blessings and please forgive all the offences that I commit. 

All glories to you dear Guru Maharaj always seeking your blessings, mercy and service. Please always keep us in your divine shelter

 

Yours humble servant,

Divya Sri Devi Dasi.


HpS - 😬 You are a soldier! You are fit to be Draupadi or some such lady in your next life. Thank you for your association. Go ahead. Let Krsna take all your ego and leave you with your real self, as brilliant as the sun, capable of doing your little service in Vaikuntha. Then we shall really see each other for the first time and recognize each other and laugh.

See you all soon.

Best wishes to all the servants of Kala chandji!!!!
