Hare Krsna, AGTSP, TB, HpS


I think we trust you two both, hence we are asking what are issues with us ?


HpS/ASA - 😕 Hare Krsna!

"both"? There is Radha, Krsna, Srila Prabhupada, Tom Brown and HpSwami addressed above. Five not two, both.


Well, I, HpS, would say that one issue is that you seem to think that we are the supersoul. We are not.

Based upon Srila Prabhupada's comments on Guru tattva, I would say that there is nothing specific that is wrong with you.

90% of our problems, my problems, arise when I don't chant HK/HR alll the time, and specifically 16-rounds early in the morning.


O.K.?????

Please send any details.

Thank you.

No matter what we do, Krsna is quite aware of the austerities that we have performed for him and the eternal help that He is determined to offer.

Eternal.

Greetings from Santiago de Chile

Hare Krishna, Maharaja!

Please accept my respectful obeisances...

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!


I hope you are well and in good health.


Today I listened your Hawaii class through the Facebook platform, Asa Carnaval, ki jay!


A few weeks ago, a pujari from ISKCON Chile named Muni Priya Das released a song in which I was invited to rap. Are prayers by Srila Rupa Goswami, prayers directed to Srimati Radharani. The mantra is called Sri Radhika-Stava.


With your disciple Lalita Madhava Das playing Carnatic mandolin. Muni Priya Das is a bassist and singer, a disciple of His Holiness Bhakti Bushan Swami, who recently spent several weeks in Chile and celebrated his Vyasapuja here. It was wonderful to see Maharaja so happy.


Sri Radhika-Stava:

HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, listened to the clip. It is very nice! the "J" in "Jaya" is pronounced like the "G" in "Gino". No Yaya.

🙂

Do you know the word by word meaning of the song?

It changes how you chant it.


I'm still active in the service of garlands for Sri Sri Gaura Nitai and for Srila Prabhupada at ISKCON Chile, every Monday and sometimes a replacement, I really love to make garlands and it's so good for me, my best moment of the week. I made the welcome garland for H.H. Bhakti Bushan Swami ¡All glories to Srila Prabhupada!


HpS - Have you seen the garlands for Radha Nila-madhava here in Houston? Go to YouTube.com and search for ISKCON Houston, and you can see the Darshana arati. They are supernatural. Part of it is the devotion and part of it is the nice budget they have.

I hope you put some photos of Gaura Nitai's garlands below.


Soon, I will fulfill a year without smoking and without eating cannabis; I'm following the regulative principles, but it's not possible for me right now to achieve the chanting of 16 rounds a day; anyway, I'm chanting every day.


HpS - Great! Do you have some minimum number, eg. four, that you keep strictly even if you have to make them up the next day???


I'm training kickboxing, weightlifting and running. A couple of times a week I go to an Okinawa karate dojo and the school I participate its called Oni Kombat; there is another fighting group with devotees: Kick Boxing Narasimha 108. I remember you told me in February that your karate sensei was Filipino; what was his name?


ASA - Johnny Autor


Filipino fighters are known for being very strong and skilled in martial arts and boxing.


Every day I read Srila Prabhupada and listen to His voice chanting the Maha Mantra through YouTube and I chant some of my rounds along with Him.


I saw that you already have a date and flight tickets to Lima and I know that you will come to Santiago de Chile for a few days during November. I will be here waiting to have your association and darshan once again. Is there anything I can do for you before and during your visit?


I send other music releases from Muni Priya Das:

Thank you very much for everything you do, Maharaja!


Please accept my respectful obeisances and all glories to Srila Prabhupada!


Your aspiring servant,

Carlos.


HpS - You are a real journalist. More news of the Yatra. The devotees. Your associates.

Hare Krsna, Dear Srila Gurudeva, please accept our humble obeisances 🙏🏻

All Glories To Srila Prabhupada 🙏🏻



In this letter, I'm trying to better explain the simplicity of what I want to do🙏🏻


I've always wanted students in the faculties here to have access to ISKCON. For one reason or another—the pandemic, etc.—I couldn't do it before, but now I've started. I sent a letter to two universities and a university college, explaining the importance of our knowledge and how necessary it is for students.

I received a response from 21st Century University, and I'm trying to get them to accept the proposal.

Our intention is simply to be a bridge and do what I also did years ago in my faculty: have a space where as many students as possible can come together, so that lectures on Krishna consciousness can be given (perhaps adapted according to faculties and availability), and so that students and the general public can have access to Srila Prabhupada's books.

Therefore, it would be very good if this exchange were attractive, and we could all collaborate on that according to what we can and know how to do.


HpS/ASA - Very, very nice. AgtSP!! With whom are you communicating? Find out about their personal and professional position? Are they just representing the policies of the University. E.g. the University offers extended programs to outside educational resources, or is there someone who is responding with specific interest in what you have suggested.

Of course, based upon your above stated motivation, and whatever specific interest they might have, we do have Light of the Bhagavata as an introductory book (you may like another) which has many topics and nice art.

Then LOB recommends studying the works of the Goswamis, headed by Rupa Goswami, to better understand Lord Caitanya and Vrndavana Dhama. For that we offer reading Nectar of Instruction. Then for serious academic readers we have Teachings of Lord Caitanya.

All of these are available at www.VedaBase.Io

We also have a Table of Contents, Index, Symposium Productions Manual and Art for LOB.

En esta carta intento explicar mejor la simplicidad de lo que deseo hacer🙏🏻 Siempre quise que los estudiantes de las facultades de aquí tengan acceso a ISKCON. Por uno y otro motivo , pandemia, etc no pude hacerlo antes , pero ahora empezé. Envié una carta a dos universidades y un colegio universitario, explicando lo importante de nuestro conocimiento y lo necesario que es para los estudiantes. Tuve respuesta de la universidad siglo 21 y estoy intentando que acepten la propuesta. nuestro intento es simplemente ser un puente y hacer como hice también hace años en mi facultad : tener un espacio donde entre la mayor cantidad de estudiantes posible, para que se pueda dar cátedra sobre la conciencia de Krsna ( tal vez amoldar de acuerdo a facultades y disposición) y que los estudiantes y público en general tengan acceso. a los libros de srila prabhupada. Por lo tanto sería muy bueno que esté intercambio sea atractivo y en eso podríamos colaborar todos según lo que podemos y sabemos hacer.


We ask for His wonderful blessings so that many students here may come to know our beloved acarya and that their lives, instead of being frustrating, may be happy.


Pedimos Sus maravillosas bendiciones para que muchos chicos estudiantes de aquí puedan conocer a nuestro querido acarya y que sus vidas en lugar de ser frustrantes puedan ser felices.


always trying to please the blessed dust of his feet:
