Letters to the editor

Dear Maharaj,

Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and to your service unto him.

I am very glad that Abhirama Prabhu invited me to serve by coming up with content for the Solaris magazine. I have previously written science articles for BTG and thought I can do some service by writing some articles for Solaris magazine. I am very glad to serve in this capacity with Abhirama Prabhu and am thankful that you have continued to allow me to serve in NIOS in some capacity.

I am also involved in a research project with some BI scientists on past-life memory research, where they are interviewing young children with memories of their past lives. This is a follow up to the work of Dr. Ian Stevenson, whose department at the University of Virginia, Department of Perceptual Studies is still doing academic research in this field.

I am really thankful to get some chance to serve Your Holiness and get some association of devotees in the academic field through this service even remotely through the NIOS activities. Thank you for this opportunity of association and service. It is like a rope that you have thrown to this soul in the ocean of material existence. This rope keeps me connected, and I hope to come closer and closer to the boat and one day get on the boat that takes us across the ocean of material existence.

Your humble aspiring servant,

Aja Govinda dasa

ASAHpSwami - AgtSP. Paoho. Super news.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Guru Maharaj HH Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj. Please accept our humble obeisances at Your sweet Lotus feet.

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj,

Thank you very much for the wonderful, ecstatic Saturday class...we long to hear more and more.

As for the political situation here in Manipur, it is far from okay! Anything can flare up anytime. Only Your mercy has protected us and our services to Sri RadhaGovinda!

We wish to serve Guru Maharaj and all the wonderful devotees accompanying Guru Maharaj at Sri RadhaKund. We wish to bring our Manipur cultural troupe along with us so that we all can serve Guru Maharaj and all the devotees, especially HH Yadunanda Swami. We only wish we could serve all the Vaishnavas at Manipura....we wait but with bleeding arms! Mataji Joybi has an ashram at RadhaKund, very near to Guru Maharaj's ASA, RadhaKund. Should any of the devotees need accommodation, kindly give us the seva.

We look forward to serving Guru Maharaj at RadhaKund. We discussed with HH Bhakti Anand Haridas Goswami Maharaj about Guru Maharaj's visit to Manipur . And we had the same conclusion...not really the safest of times to visit Manipura.

We sent some pics and videos of this year's Rathyatra services through Rituraj Krsna Das...for Guru Maharaj's pleasure.

Started learning Spanish....as instructed by Guru Maharaj. Indeed...lot of similarities with Ingles and Hindi! Thank you Guru Maharaj.

Your insignificant servant

HPSWAMI-ASA - Thank, agtSP, you, for this definitive answer

Br. Sadhubhusana Das was encouraging us.

We want to visit, but at this time seems best for us to stay based in Sri Vrndavana Dhama for all three weeks.

Will inform Yadu Swami.

Maybe we can make a movie to send there from Vraja.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

It has taken me years, but thanks to the association with very learned devotees of our Yatra through their daily classes, I am able to memorize the most important verses of the Bhagavad Gita. 

Every day I set aside a few minutes to learn and review the verses, it helps a lot in preaching and makes me feel fulfilled. 

Two questions Gurudeva: 

1.- Does the recitation of the mantra “Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya” work for any Vedic scripture?

HpS - Yes.

2.- What do you think of veganism? Sometimes I get to thinking about going vegan. 

HpS - It is good for people living in the forest who may not have access to cows and milk, but for someone who must have mental strength and acuity to advise the King in all his practical affairs, it is not good. He would need cows milk to feed his instrument, brain.

Thank you very much Gurudeva

Your Servant
