Querido Gurumaharaja.

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada! 

Si me permite por favor dedicarle unas cortas palabras de agradecimiento porque parece imposible evitar hacerlo, pido disculpas si robo un tiempo importante. 

Desde hace algunos años estoy reflexionando mucho en que cada vez que veo a Gurumaharaja parece más y más cualificado, es como el océano que parece no tener límite, tal como Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura nos dice. Esto es maravilloso, porque incluso alguien enceguecido como su aspirante puede apreciarlo.

Muchísimas gracias por enseñarnos a mantener la calma ante las calamidades, a entender la naturaleza del mundo material y a vivir siempre en una eterna conciencia de Krsna refugiado con tanta fe en su amado Srila Prabhupada, Su ejemplo literalmente nos arrastra de las constantes lamentaciones que no son dignas. 

Oramos humildemente al Señor Nrsimhadeva para que lo proteja y Su sankirtana continúe eternamente. 

Nuestras oraciones sinceras también para nuestro estimado y respetado Nitaigourasundara prabhu. 

Les dedicamos rondas pidiendo perdón por un canto descualificado. 

Tuvimos hermosos festivales desde Jhulan Yatra , en un momento la mente me dijo talves es mejor hacerte a un lado y limitar tu naturaleza a únicamente glorificar el servicio de los demás, pero de alguna forma Sri Krsna me arrastró una y otra vez en cada oportunidad y terminé a cargo del maha abhiseka de Radhastami!! : ) ha sido increíble Gurumaharaja !!! Una gran oportunidad para las madres pujaris que están haciendo servicio en el altar en estos tiempos, 12 pujaris haciendo un poquito cada una y de forma organizada pues había que aprovechar tal oportunidad, parecían como las asistentes de las asistentes de las asistentes de las gopis... 

Todo esto gracias a Su infinita misericordia de aceptarme formalmente en el hermoso ISKCON que amamos con sus aciertos y sus desafíos, si por mis ofensas una ola de este grandioso océano me arrastra hacia afuera apelo (por mi tontería) que venga otra y me arreste adentro porque el pez tonto moriría afuera, esas olas de rescate siempre serán su ejemplo e instrucciones. 

Eternamente agradecida

Vuestra eterna aspirante a sirviente

Dear Gurumaharaja.

Please accept my respectful obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

If I can please say a few words of thanks because it seems impossible to avoid doing so, I apologize if I steal important time.

For some years now I have been reflecting a lot that every time I see Gurumaharaja he seems more and more qualified, it is like the ocean that seems to have no limit, as Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura tells us. This is wonderful, because even a blind person like your aspirant can appreciate it.

HpS - It seems that all of us, if just stay in this movement, by the great power of Srila Prabhupada we become detached from mater and our hearts become flexible. So of us are making progress faster than others.

Thank you so much for teaching us to be calm in the face of calamities, to understand the nature of the material world and to always live in an eternal Krsna consciousness taking refuge with so much faith in your beloved Srila Prabhupada, Your example literally drags us out of the constant lamentations that are not worthy.

We humbly pray to Lord Nrsimhadeva to protect you and His sankirtana to continue eternally.

Our sincere prayers also for our esteemed and respected Nitai-goura-sundara Prabhu.

We dedicate rounds to them apologizing for a disqualified song.

HpS - Thank you. I am sure it will mean a lot to him!! I just talked to him. He was better the last two days, but is little worse today?? Eternal pastimes. Life outside the Cinema.

We had beautiful festivals since Jhulan Yatra, at one point the mind told me maybe it is better to step aside and limit your nature to only glorify the service of others, but somehow Sri Krsna dragged me over and over again at every opportunity and I ended up in charge of Radhastami's maha abhiseka !! :) It has been incredible Gurumaharaja !!! A great opportunity for Pujari mothers who are doing service at the altar in these times, 12 pujaris doing a little bit each and in an organized way because they had to take advantage of this opportunity, they seemed like the assistants of the assistants of the gopis. ..

HpS - Sometimes Krsna seems to give us a little taste of what real life is like. Even if it is only mental pictures, what to speak of Bhava, it is better than any material experience, no?

All this thanks to His infinite mercy to formally accept me in the beautiful ISKCON that we love with its successes and its challenges, if for my offenses a wave of this great ocean drags me out I appeal (for my foolishness) that another come and arrest me inside because the silly fish would die outside, those waves of rescue will always be your example and instructions.

Eternally grateful

Your eternal would-be servant

I share some photos

HpS - The photos are so nice!!! Window on the spiritual world, but one thing a little funny. All the ladies look like very proper Arabian, Muslim ladies, with their faces covered.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna. Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare!!!!!! Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare ......

Hare!

Hare Krsna Gurudeva!

AgtSP!

Agt Radha y Krsna!

I hope you are doing your best in all aspects.

HpS - ASA - Thank you, and the same to you!!

First of all, thank you very much for everything Gurudeva, your letters are like reading letters from a very close relative who is abroad.

In your last letter you asked me if I had more information about the first Christians, the ones I call the desert fathers, because that's what some call them.

They are not exactly the Koftos as I understand it, as the Desert Fathers were the first cloistered monks according to Christian history. The precursors of the monasteries as such, since apparently there were not before, of course ... they were the early days of Christianity. And surely the Koftos are descendants of these communities, or the base communities of those Christian times in those areas like Egypt, I don't know exactly that.

The desert fathers were hermits, and they isolated themselves imitating Jesus Christ in the desert, waiting for communion with God thanks to their Tapasias and devotion.

For me, what impressed me the most about them, as I read, is that they practiced continuous prayer of the heart, or a very similar method. They prayed to Jesus Christ, or mantra-like formulas, non-stop.

Statements like this one inspired me with great respect and admiration for those people or communities:

[... However, taking into account the nature of the prayer to Jesus, its origins can be discovered in the search environment of a continuous prayer that intensely seals the spiritual history of the first Christian centuries, particularly the pilgrimage of the Fathers of the desert. The common doctrine of primitive monasticism is the search for the ideal of continuous prayer. It is said of Saint Anthony of Egypt (c.250-356), who has gone down in history as "the father of monks" that he "prayed constantly, as he had learned that it was necessary to pray incessantly in private." The aspiration to incessant prayer is nourished by orientations like those of Saint Paul that exhort us to live "persevering in prayer" (Rom 12,12) and to pray "without ceasing" (1Thes 5, 17) ... ]

Here I leave the link of a pdf talking about continuous prayer, it´s ok; http://www.acharia.org/downloads/oracion_continua_corazon-2.pdf

The closer one gets to the original practitioners, close to some envoy or prophet, the more one realizes that the Vedic Vaisnava culture is the original source of all the water that falls on the world, not due to a material origin in time, that a lot of that too, but because this Vedic knowledge drinks water from the hand of God, Krsna, in person.

Really, if I think about it calmly, to this day, that due to the corruption, the influence of kali yuga, and the time itself that bundles everything when being moved by living entities, it is almost impossible to really see the teachings of Jesus Christ somewhere, or Muhammad, etc etc ... even Krsna ... and even Srila Prabhupada if we look at it closely. Therefore, it is as if Srila Prabhupada's quick preaching is really, without exaggeration or mythologizing, a true new global evangelization on the essence of the “perfect and private teachings” of the prophets or guides of all the religions on earth, previous at this time, that have been lost.

Srila Prabhupada was empowered to expand on earth again, to all places without distinction, in unison, this river of life, lost. I am fully sure of this statement.

Forgive such a long letter this time.

Have good days until the next letter, I'll see you on Twitter and blog every day.

Hare Krsna Gurudeva.

Haribolo.

P.D: How young you "happy hippies" were!!

Thank you dear Gurudev for inspiring all of us to surrender our lives to Krishna and to practice and expand devotional service.

HpS - Thank you. AgtSP. Books are the basis, no? Srila Prabhupada made this super human effort to give us so many books that the ideas of KC can come through so clearly from so many different perspectives.

Google is warning us that The Ekadasi Times my have viruses and it is very big. 110MB! So we can't look at it. If you have some text file that would be nice for us.

Will J G Das access work?

HpS - This is my second time trying. After I received this, I logged in as Jagatguru Das and tried to Add Letter but still there was no "Publish letter" at the bottom for me.

Then I tried to send the response with this news and it came back with some kind of "Action Aborted" message. Let us try again.

Testing form normal user account.

[Trying to add this line after edit]

HpS - Also, good.

Can we post?
