Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj,

Dandavat pranam,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto your lotus feet (lettuce feet).

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All glories to Gour Nitai.

First of all, please forgive me for not communicating with you in your blog never before.

I, Kancanrangi Devi Dasi from Cachar , Assam, India, one of your desciples under the instruction of H. H. Bhakti Anand Haridas Maharaj, would like to inform you that I am going to move into Grihastha life and the wedding ceremony will be held on 28th April 2021.

HpS - AGTSP!!! Read the story of Kardama and Devahuti in the Third Canto with your fiancEe, respected husband. We hope that Krsna enlightens both of you and all others involved to execute the sacrifice of Grhastha ashrama perfectly, and make Him and Guru very happy.

We humbly beg your blessings upon us that we would become a good Grihastha in future.

By the mercy of Gour Nitai may you live healthy and blissful. Dandavat pranam Guru Maharaj.

Thank you.🙏🙏🙏🙏

HpS - We all thank you! Please! Send pictures of the weddings with names of the people involved.

I'd like to share good news with those who follow HH Hunumauntpresaka (Hanumat-presaka) Swami's blog, where I get my advice and instructions from.

I've taken his main instruction of never give up, and always chant the holy names of the lord.

After about three years I've been added to the list of becoming his deciple (disciple).

This brings me great peace of mind, and feel much more connected to the Vaisnavas and the Parampara.

HpS - It is a great honor for us to be able to help you in this or other capacity. Srila Prabhupada has taken some notice of you??? Why not??

This is the mercy of guru, one who has spilled gallon's of blood to bring me and others to a position where we can become more than we've ever imagined. to be free of the conditions that have bound one to our needs and wants, and to stop the downward spiral of life.

HpS - AgtSP who made his Generals out of Mud!

To a higher standard of life that knows no bounds. it's assuring to know there's someone helping you in the endeavor.

My purpose now is learning to be the servant of the servant of the servant. which I've seen the master teach by his example tirelessly giving of himself.

I wanted to share my good fortune and looking forward to being of some service to my fellow comrades.

Hare Krishna

You're servant Mike Jarvis

HpS - We came in contact with Bhakta Michael a few years ago. As we remember he was in Seattle and trying to get formal initiation then. We've had nice conversation. Then, a few weeks ago, Badri-naryana Swami formally recommend Mike as a candidate and we had a very nice phone conversation while we were in Richmond with Subal, Mataji and everyone.

He was in the merchant marine for several years. His ships went to Asia and now he is retired and can do full time service in the San Diego temple.

Senyor Miguel Jarvis... please send us some news of your service each month. Your realizations of Radha Giridhari et al!!!

ASA(e), VAD, Sexual Impuses

Hare Krishna, Maharaja. 

Pamho. 

One practical question: 

What do I do when there's strong sensual impulse? 

I can't get married and accept family life for occasional urges when I know family life involves many incumbrances. 

What do you suggest Maharaja? 

When should a Brahmachari decide to marry? 

Please reply in your leisure, Maharaj. 

Thank you. 

Dandvats at your feet. 

Your servant

HpS - ASA - AGTSP!! Paoho.

'Victory comes from good advice

And good advice comes from

Many counselors.'

-Chanakya Pandita

Of course, when Srila Prabhupada gives advice it is advice of many good counselors, perfect energy or the Parampara!

We can identify ourselves as M'adhikari but by your association inspired to do better. So please accept any advice that we offer as part of the community of advisors that you have.

We are all individuals, so we need individual advice about how to serve Krsna best. For that there are 18,000 verses and so many storys in the SB etc.

One basic perspective we see is Kardama and Devahuti. He may have wanted to stay B'cari, but Lord said that was best for him to get married. Go through the experience one more time with utasahan... and finish his attachment. Maybe as B'cari it would have taken 3-lifetimes. We don't have to give up ANY of our attachemt to Krsna by entering G'hasta ashrama. Proper wife will feel the same way. She does NOT want a husband who loves her expect as a servant of Krsna. Of course our love is mixed so Vaidhi Bhakti, DVAD, is the fastest way to get that purification.

That is about all I can say from this distance.

Talk with people who know your details and then make detailed decisions. Eg. Oh, we see that you are a Ksatriya so of course you should get married to a like minded lady and increase your service experience your desires and then be finished with them.

SB 1.17.39 Says that boys should be married by 25 years old (or go into Sannyasa Ashrama). Of course, can also go directly into Vanaprastha ashrama like Vaisesika and Vira-bahu Prabhus.

To deal with immediate strong agitation, take to immediate strong Japa, Kirtan, Sankirtan.

Hare Krsna! Hare Rama

Gauranga! Gauranga!

Wash your clothes, practical physical service. Eat Havisanna. Hear the KRSNA book with our B'caris. Aspire to Sannyasa is the best way possible, always increasing your mystic powers to service Krsna according to you Siddha svarupa.

O.K?

Some perspectve?

More questions?

Hare Krishna Everyone.

All glories to Srila Prabupada

Humility and tolerance as described by Acharya’s are considered to be two important indicators for spiritual progress.

I want to touch base with one aspect of humility today which helps in every aspect of life which includes relationships like with wife, kids, parents, work or associating with devotees.

Over the years conducting and participating in Bhakti Vriksha programs I have come across different versions of humility from devotees.

Let’s start with our mind.

Our mind is restless, manipulative and tells us how to act in certain situations to be appropriate for particular situation.

Humility does not mean that you have to wear old clothes, drive old car or live in a hut. Everyone lives according to their means and sometime more or below their means. We all have imbibe things while growing up and is actually very deeply ingrained to our system.

If someone tells me to buy 500-dollar shirt I won’t buy it even if I can afford it because I am not raised like that. So we have to understand that outer appearance and the way we live have sometimes nothing to do with humility.

We could be just too attached to money, we could be very frugal and also have hard time doing charity. But if we look from outside we may be considered to be very humble because we know when to fold hands and pay obeisance.

One aspect of humility which I want to discuss today is to look inside and see your faults. Then you accept it and try to rectify it. This process of seeing fault inside and trying to rectify is very purifying process and definitely helps spiritually and helps in relationships.

Another part of humility is that its all or none. If you are humble at the temple, you are also humble in front of your spouse, family and work. It’s a part of you. Otherwise you are just acting out.

I have met lot of people, men or women, who have trouble accepting faults in themselves even after chanting for many years. I am not trying to find any faults with those who are sincerely chanting. My point is If we are able to grow from inside our spiritual progress will be more expedited. 

Hare Krishna

Shitij Kapoor 

HpS - Thank you, Sir!

Hare Krsna!

It seems you have been chanting for some time with some sincere effort and your heart is becoming gentle and wise.

Daksa is an example of someone who did Visnu yajna for many years but he had attachments in his heart that slowed or contaminated his progress. Lord Caitanya explains this in His analogy of the Krpa of Bhakti to Rupa Goswami (CC Madhya 19).

Thank you!!

Hare Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO,

https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/12299/ Tough time in marriage, go-dasa, seems to be our

past. If your grace feels its okay and he likes he can contact us.

HpS - We will keep this in mind. Thank you. Very valuable offer.

JAYA SRI SRI GURU AND GAURANGA !!

ALL GLORIES TO SRILA PRABHUPADA !! and his loyal and dedicated disciples like you.

SS Hanumatpresaka Swami, first of all I want to introduce myself my name is Manuel, I am a monkey,

ASA - It is like at Alcoholic Anonymous meetings when someone stands up and he says, "My name is Manuel R and I am an alcoholic" and then gives a testimony.

(I attach my photo at the end of this report), I perceive myself cheerful, communicative and sometimes a little grumpy, I try to have a favorable attitude to Seva and, in my character prevails more a Ksatriya-vaisya attitude than a brahmana. Prabhu Abhirama told me about the importance of sending periodic reports of the SOLARIS MAGAZINE...

ASA - We know him, good man, but still some room for improvement.

...every 15 days. I have accepted this service for 6 months then we will evaluate whether it continues or not.

So let's start with the report of what is being done and progressing in SOLARIS magazine.

PROGRESS IN THE INDEXATION OF SOLARIS IN LATINDEX

A section of CONCYTEC-Peru (National Council of Science, Technology and Technological Innovation) It is the representative of LATINDEX in Peru. LATINDEX is the first important database to which we are applying to be indexed by them (we have good communication with Professor Bolaños who is in charge so that will help in the management) he suggests that this year we make a magazine in October or November and that we complete all that remains to be evaluated and that from 2022 if we publish 2 magazines a year (one in May or June and another in October or November), I particularly agree that we still have several requirements and formalities to meet and we are already April, SO THE SUGGESTION IS TO MAKE A NUMBER IN OCTOBER OR NOVEMBER what do you think?

ASA - Seems good. Seems like a possibly good pace for such and important project. 

TEAMS THAT HAVE BEEN FORMED ACCORDING TO THE CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THE INDEXATION

1. TECHNICAL TEAM FOR THE SOLARIS WEBSITE AND FOR EDITING TOPICS AND CONTENTS

We have read the LATINDEX regulations and according to their characteristics we have formed a technical team that according to their knowledge, experiences and skills can help to complete the formal requirements (for example, in the case of Bhakta Marcos, professor at the Complutense University of Madrid, he is a lawyer and he is dealing with the legal rules corresponding to the magazine, there are several, he includes ethical rules (for example, if we subscribe to Creative Commons 4.0 to share our articles for free, as long as it is for non-commercial purposes (they would only cite to SOLARIS in a technical way) And so we will share the content of the magazine with other researchers and intellectuals in the world.

Purnamasi and Nitya Kisori are writing all the formal information on the website (in Spanish and English). I participate in the part in Spanish and I provide you with all the documents that we have drawn up in previous years (invitations, model agreements, etc.) that material is serving as the basis.

The website is 90% ready, (Bhaktin Sandra Salazar, (a student of prabhu Gandharva has participated in a very creative way in this part).

What we are also working on is how to manage social networks and how to integrate NIOS and SOLARIS in a harmonious way. any suggestion is welcome. please, write us to this email: [email protected].

ASA - Very nice. It should be clear that Solaris is a journal of NIOS, no?

2. HISPANIC COMMUNICATIONS TEAM

Here each Hispanic country has its representative, our current challenge is to develop a communication strategy for the magazine. Another challenge is to make AN ATTRACTIVE AND CONVINCING BILINGUAL DIGITAL DIGITAL BIPTIC to encourage magazine writing. After the first indexing, we will no longer invite them to write on the contrary, we will have many authors who want to publish articles because in universities they pay professors to publish in indexed journals, so they improve their level, professors and universities improve their classification. Prabhu Abhirama has set himself the challenge of developing the concept: “SOLARIS Contributions for a new culture”. Everyone is invited to participate, please those who wish to do so can write to us at the e-mail: [email protected]

3. SOLARIS TEAM IN INDIA

Here is the participation of Mother Sarad Gaurangi Devi Dasi from Manipur University who is going to write an article on health, the pandemic and spirituality and Professor Harsh Pradan from the University of Banaras. Mother Purnamasi is the co-coordinator with ARTd. There we have the valuable contribution of Albert Ferrer (he is from Barcelona) but he has an important educational Asrama and a project that is on the way to becoming a University in India, He greatly appreciates SS HpS and will write in this October issue of SOLARIS.

4. SOLARIS TEAM IN USA.

The members are: Srinivas-acarya, Srinath Krishna, Radhika Raman (according to their possibilities) and we hope that there will be an Aja-Govinda, current NIOS secretary of communications.

The co-coordination is with mother Nitya kisori and ARTd. As I understand it, the ideal is that of the 12 or 13 articles in each issue of SOLARIS, at least 5 or 6 are articles that are written in English (that is, written by English-speaking teachers, not translating from Spanish to English, we have already tested that does not work well). In Latin America we already have a certain important presence in some intellectual circles, but in the US, Europe and India we are still lacking, so if 50% of the content is in English that will help to have a greater presence in the US, Europe and India.

ASA - Please bump HpSwami to give names of English speaking scholars and devotees. There is bvery nice devotee in Ojai, California and Chaitany-carana Das from India et al.

I will end this report with a quote to Albert Einstein: "The study and, in general, the search for truth and beauty make up an area where we can remain children all our lives."

That's all for now the Holiness of him, thank you very much for inspiring us to find our place and be helpful and favorable in Sri Rama's army. JAY SITA-RAMA-LAKSMANA-HANUMAN !!!!

NOTE: Sorry for the grammar mistakes, I used, the Google translator to make this report.

ASA - We edited it a little bit. Super. We can share this with NIOS members etc.

Now we wait for number two. You don't have to write as much because these can form a series.
