Hare Krsna beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, PAMHO


It was very pleasing to our soul to have your darshan, at least via internet, when you were in Richmond. Your smile gives always solace to our existence ¡¡¡


HpS - It was after one year of living in our little cave! 😀 Experiment in travel. So nice to have M/Arati with live bodies. So, nice to shar beautiful altar with our virtual Sanga. Thank you.


I continue teaching in two universities sometimes Saturdays and Sundays as well. Nevertheless, we refuse to be a full time professor due to that will affect our Sadhana. With this pandemic state we teachers have the challenge to learn new techniques for distance education. I'm thrilled to learn new things.


HpS - It seems that many communities have been tested by this Karuna virus. The shopping mall community has d i e d. What has happened to Saga Falla Bella in Peru? On the other had ISKCON seems to have done well. Seems many people are appreciating the ISKCON, H/K movement, can do well, prosper, in many circumstances.

Maybe New Ashokavan will be a good model for all of Peru?


I was wondering if I can travel to the USA in order to get the Co-vid 19 vaccination. Here in Peru-patalaloka it seems that we need to wait for a long time. M Subhra was investigating for me, my cousin as well. What do you think about that? I was also thinking to be near some friends due to I do not know how my body will react.


HpS - We don't know. We had to wait until health care, essential care, folks over 75 years got theirs. It is by state. Subra would know better. Here none of our community has had much more than a very mild reaction. Then, it is mutating! Have to learn to live in a little village (with naughty Gopal) and then these things are automatically controlled.


I have some news about my life, one friend of mine, Claudia Cáceres (she is psychologist), is going to move to my house for some time. Her parents decided to sell her house, without telling her. She has 2 kids. They are going to live for some time with their father. They are divorced. She is going to rent one room. She is a nice girl, very intelligent and warm - hearted.


ASA - Super! She has cat also? P'pada said that anyone who follows the four principles and doesn't cause a disturbance is welcome on our land... Maybe she can reconcile with her husband.


I always recall the words from my mother "Always help the elders" Maybe in the future I may turn my house into a place in which the elders can hang out.


HpS - Village!


The only practical service that I have is in Chosica. I give SB classes, actually a group of ladies give classes every Saturday. This Saturday is my turn. Please your blessings in order not to speculate and say something useful.


HpS - May the dead bless the dead! We always pray that we don't do the same! I guess that because they give SB classes that is why we can say that they are, stay, ladies. I can see that my Karma is at the door at any moment leading me to become stupid, lusty beast. Srila Prabhupada!!

Srila Prabhupada!!

... Srila Prabhupada!!

... ... Srila Prabhupada!!


That is all what I have to report.


ASA (TB/MP) --- Hey! Are there art pictures of your altar attached? Ulysses? Sister?? Cats?? (My God, we put your sister in the same line as the cats!!!) She's a great person, no? So, lucky to have a nice sister.

Neighbors?



Thanks for your association see you at FMP

Dialog with SVBDP (GBC)

4 years, 2 months ago by hps in Special Category A
  1. Virabahu Das is an excellent source of illumination from Srila Prabhupada.
  2. SVBD is one of our closest friends in ISKCON (if he hasn't gotten disgusted with our bad qualities🙄).
  3. He is our GBC Secretary for the Anjana Suta Academy, and Chile, where ASA is especially designed for preaching!

We have not had contact with him for some time, so we Whatsapped him. Edited message:


AGTSP!  Paoho...  Where are you, Sir?     We are still based in Nashville, but after one year here, with our vaccinations, we went for the weekend to Richmond, Virginia. 


We still have it on our TTD list to palaver with some of the different ISKCON communities in Santiago, 😳, but since we had heard no more rumbles between them it has not gotten done.

We will do it.


Our main focus is just consolidating our Sankirtan stuff (into a movie) before we die. 🦆🦆🦢🦆....


What is your physical address?  We might mail you a sketch book. 📓


Please call, text us, as you desire.


We still publish the Kapi Dhvaja fortnightly and have about 40-people average on-line for Mangala-arati etc.


H. P. Swami, Head of the Anjana Suta Academy.

Respected Senor,

PAMHO,AGTSP,


Can you elaborate on the line "Until we learn to lover everyone we will never be worthy of everyone's love. It is our independent free choice.

Of course, in the Madhyama adhikari stage this means learning to avoid the things that make us hate them. That is part of our independent process of love."


Esp the words - "independent process of love" as context of Madhyam Adhikari.

Which your grace (My Holiness [Sannyasi] 😁 😁😁) wrote in https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/12299


Trying to [change??] self from Sugriva to Hanuman


HpS - ASA - We have free will. It is part of our fundamental nature. In Madhayama adhikari stage it is beginning to manifest. Like a child or even a dog can make personal choices if the circumstances are kept in the mode of goodness for them, no?

High MA, low MAdhikari...

Even if spouse, boss, is mean to us, we can make the choice to not become a victim, to try to understand the situation and help them.

Bali may never appreciate Sugriva in this lifetime, but doesn't mean that Sugriva has to become his enemies enemy.

Some help?


Humbly Announcing Wedding.

4 years, 2 months ago by kancanarangidevidasi in Personal Sadhana Reports

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.

By the grace of Hanumatpresaka Swami, I've made the disciple list.

4 years, 2 months ago by stopngo in Personal Sadhana Reports

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!!!

Fighting Sexual Impulses?

4 years, 2 months ago by hps in Special Category B

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?
