Letters to the editor

Srila Prabhupada gave us the book "KRSNA, The Supreme Personality of Godhead". In the original big size it was especially wonderful. The letters were 13.5pt. The drawings by Jadurani Devi Dasi (?) were 'psychedelic'. We didn't know devotees or the Temples, but the pictures were from another world.

We would read one sentence over and over again, until it was a complete icon, meditation.

This story, this process, drives us mad.

quarantine.

Don't go out. Don't look at people. Just your glance can contaminate them. They will become mad also. -0-0-0- The Kingdom of God is for none but the Completely Dead. -0-0-0- A material body cannot stand such animation!!!

Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaj,

My report is a quite delay like my whole life is a delay in some many ways.

I'm a messenger of the new managers of ISKCON Chile and they want to know if you could give the lecture to the followers of ISKCONCL in social media on (at, in?) August 12th in the evening. Probably, we are already delayed asking you this now, excuse us.

HpS - That is Srila Prabhupada's Appearance Day, no? What time? We need USA telephone number to connect! So nice!!

And the other invitation is considering your suggestion to have a special program for Radhastami. In that case, we thought to invite you along with Murti Murti from Buenos Aires (she agrees so much) and Vishaka devi dasi (Yadubhara's wife) to August 25th evening - Radhastami program (definitely to everyone this time). Of course, this event would be for the whole Latin American with previous registration.

In this case, it would be similar to the last "Día Internacional de la Mujer Vaisnava" with Rukmini devi dasi and Malati devi dasi (im editing the last version of the video). This one had a very powerful impact, like you predicted, because it was a good chance to start a massive interchange between north and south, English and Spanish.

For example, other programs only for spiritual souls inside women bodies and retreats with Prabhupada disciples, have been organized with very good results. My wife have been there in some of them, we recommended Nitya Kishori to translate too, and Carolina said that a lot of Latin lady devotees have been very happy with a lot of "aha moments".

I have too much to tell you but is not urgent. For now, We would appreciate if you can let us know if your calendar is available for these two dates.

Thank you for your efforts and devotion. We are trying to follow your steps, but in my case in a very slow rhythm, I think.

Your servant

Jagad Guru Das

HpS - 25th also sounds O.K. but..... same thing..... we need USA telephone num, num, number.

Srila Prabhupada said, that sometimes, slow to come, also means slow to go. We make fundamental progress. Slow but deep also. How is The Anandavardana Das tele-novela??? He is going to be dangerous when he wakes up!

Narotttama??

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Obeisances

I want to ask for your advice, I want to start sharing on my YouTube channel different kirtans, with different rhythms and on the other hand, start sharing songs based on the songs of the acaryas, as you advised me and just as Prabhupada did with J.H.

What songs should I start with?

HpS - ASA --- "Udilo aruna..." is nice!

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Life and the struggle with Maya go on. I beg for your blessings for some determination so I may follow your instructions and move forward on this path back to godhead.

HpS - ASA -- Hare Krsna! Hare Rama! We are attached to some bad habit and then we replace it with a less bad habit and suffer the pain of letting go. Then we do it again, and again, and again, and then one day..... we have no more bad habits!!

The movie "A True Warrior on the Front Lines" won first place in the ISKCON News Kindness Pandemic contest. I received a $150 Amazon gift card as a prize. I would like to offer the gift card for Lord Narasimhadeva's service. Is it okay if I forward the claim code to your email Guru Maharaja?

Your insignificant servant,

Sugopi Radha Devi Dasi

HpS - Can you spend it for Lord Nrsmha Deva? I know that is more austerity, but it would be very nice. Tell us how you invested it?!!!!! Very nice.

We can take the stories in SB and then put them into modern context.

Dear Maharaja, please accept my sincere obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!

I hope that you already feel better about indigestion and your health in general. I keep praying to Krsna and Nrsimhadeva for yout well-being.

Maharaja, your response to my previous letter was wonderful. Thank you very much for all your encouraging and enlightening words. They helped me understand many things.

My sadhana has been fine. There are times when I feel like my rounds are not adequate. I must pay more attention to them. Sometimes I find it difficult to focus on the names of Krsna. I found a way to pay more attention to my japa (sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't). Still, "the mind is restless, turbulent, stubborn, and very strong ... and to subdue it is more difficult than controlling the wind." Every moment trying to improve.

Since January of this year, Tulasi Maharani came to my home, and I have tried to serve her in the best possible way. But now, there is a fungus that is attacking her, and I am doing my best to provide her the best care. I find it hard not to feel attached to her, and it hurts me a lot to see her suffering. Still, I continue to do arati and occupy their leaves to offer to Krsna. I hope that with time it improves her condition.

Japa singing in a group on Mondays goes very well. Every week more people come in, and we connect with the maha mantra for an hour. Being able to be a channel to deliver Srila Prabhupada's teachings (trying) to others is beautiful. I am very grateful to be engaged in that way in service.

I wanted to tell you that I am in Bhagavad-Gita, Srimad Bhagavatam, Krsna Book and Nectar of devotion book clubs. I really like reading, and now, thanks to "Karuna Virus", I have been able to take the time to study. I hope to have a better understanding of the science of Bhakti in order to serve the devotees, you, Srila Prabhupada and Krsna in the best way. Based on this, can I present my concerns and doubts that appear from reading in future letters?

HpS - Yes... You can see how many letters we have and then just adjust your questions in terms of that. Also, you will see that many of your questions will probably be answered in other letters.

All this world "calamity" has suited me very well. The most important thing was to be able to connect to FMP every morning and have your association and the devotees. I thank you immensely for your mercy, Maharaja.

I hope I can serve you in a better way every day.

May you have a very good day, afternoon and night, and may Radha and Krsna protect you infinitely.

Eternally grateful to you

Sincerely

Nicole Silva, aspiring servant.

(Ps: ¡Happy Balarama Purnima! Sorry about my english. I used google translate and my little knowledge. I hope it was understandable 🙌)

HpS - It is very nice. You just have to write in such a way that you think the robot will understand. You seem to have done that perfectly!
