Hare Krsna Gurudeva

pamhO, agTSP.

I have debit of 7000 rounds. Now whenever I make chanting my rounds I become sort of freaked up. Esp as it's an goal nobody around helps or reminds.

I see my interaction with them burden, hence I fail external exhibition of being a devotee , I don't know what to smile for.

Then we remember a senior devotee old that Srila Prabhupada was asked who is devotee ?

Then devotees replied. One who chants 16 rounds, other said one who does service.

But Prabhupada replied+ devotee means he is gentleman..

This become easy thing for us when do not take 16 rounds as top priority.

When we try to chant we sleep.

We remember we asked you similar question 2 months before initiation.

We got the jist- food is good, but when u eat, u hv to pass stool, if u don't know how to pass stool, u will make ur life mess. And will think food is the cause of your mess.

Similar chanting/ dev service is good, but there is something specific which we are missing or doing wrong, our intelligence can't see it. Please show us.

HpSwami - Hare Krsna.

HpSwami - We, agtSP, feel that we have no real physical identification, that our relationship is established through our relationship to Srila Prabhupada!

Become Goswami. Pure devotee.

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🙇‍♀️

Please, accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I do not know bhakta Carlos Medina personally, but from what I have inquired from a local devotee...he is a devotee from Peru. 

He lives in the city of Ica (next to Lima) and works in security.

Yamunesvara prabhu, the current president of ISKCON Wilson temple is his friend and preached Krishna consciousness to him.

Bhakta Carlos has supported ISKCON Wilson and different preaching programs several times with donations. 

That is all I know so far, Gurudeva. 🙏

HpS-ASA -- AgtSP. Thank you so much.

We were just hoping he could join one of the ASA whatsapp groups so that someone can communicate with about keep his microphone ans camera closed during Mangalarati.

Hare Krsna ASA members,

Was watching Mahavtar Narsimha movie, was just thinking of Kayudhu state of mind. Kidnapped by Indra, Saved by Narada, spent time in his asrama. Only attachment was son. Then father treated small kid with animosity, tried to mediate between. Not knowing plan of Hari, always fearful of rough husband, but calmed by smile of small child, soft but determined.

Mata Kayudhu was she more attached to right doing son, or scripturally sanctioned husband.

Any background story of Kayudhu mataji.

Hare Krsna, adored Gurudeva,

Please accept our respectful obeisances eternally

🙏🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🙇🏼🙏🙇🏻👣🪷♾️🌻🌹💐

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

We are reading about the Ekadasi in the wonderful application and for today's pandava nirjala ekadasi,

one of the things that is prescribed for today is to perform a recommended sacrifice:

...Oh Bhima, Lord Sri Krsna has said that whoever observes this Ekadasi should take a holy bath, give charity to a worthy person, chant the holy names of the Lord on a japa-mala, and perform some kind of recommended sacrifice, for by doing these things on this day, one receives imperishable benefits.

We hope to give all the charity in our hearts to His image and please our adorable Lord with lotus eyes. Asking for His blessing on this sweet day, I pray at His feet always;

HpS - AgtSP. Thank you for your association in our daily Japa Sanga - Sixteen enthusiastic rounds before Mangala arati.

You asked about Nirjala ekadasi in the chat but not enough time to answer then, so we suggested you write here, to our Blog 🐸 with the Category of Hot Topic.

As we remember, we never did much of Pandava-nirjala Ekadasi when Srila Prabhupada was physically present.

Later it seemed to develop as a requirement in ISKCON. Then we remember Bhanu Swami and others researched it and concluded that doing Nirjala ekadasi was not a requirement in Gaudiya Vaisnava tradition.

The story on the Calendar App may be from a book on Ekadasi that I first saw translated by Krsna-Balarama Swami. A general promotion for ekadasi like a rajarsik purana, not exactly for regular iskcon devotees, but more like a promotional offer to get people to become devotees.
