Hps/ASA - AGTSP. Paoho... Thank you so much for the invitation but we are reminded of what Janaka Maharaja told the messenger when he announced that Maharaja Dasaratha had arrived at the palace door with the the Rama, Laksmana and all the others in the Wedding Party asking permission to enter Janaka's palace.

Janaka told the messenger to go back, and tell Maharaja Dasaratha, "We are so confused, why is it that the Master of the House is asking permission to enter own His Palace. Please step forward and order us how to serve you."

You want us to give the class, so that it is sufficient. By His Divine Grace we shall do it!

This son of Maharaja Nanda is born for the death of many Ksatriyas.

Bali-mardana Das has continued with the effort to integrate our Pan-american Bhakti-vaibhava studies with the facilities being offered by the Vidya-pitha in the Govardhana Eco Village near Mumbai.

The report from Gauranga-darshana Das, Hemarupa Caitanya Das and Sankirtana Das from there side is that they are still posting the materials for on-line study at there website for Canto Six.

Our ASA idea is that the esteemed devotees in San Jose with Srivasa pandita Das and Houston with Radha-krsna Das and Hari-lila Das, who are finishing the six canto study should integrate with the sixth canto on-line course from the VP for the mutual benefit and for development of the program for all time.

We will try to keep you informed.

Por consejo de Prabhu Parasurama, le escribo aquí, para informarle, que desde el 15 de julio 2020 (aproximadamente) cambió la administración de ISKCON Chile, quedando como Tesorera madre Maha Anandini dd, como Secretario Prabhu Dina Dayal Das y como Presidente su servidor Jagannatha Caran Das (Yo).

Queremos agradecerle por Su consejo y gestión para realizar este cambio.

Pedimos Sus bendiciones para ejecutar este servicio de la mejor manera y poder ser un aporte en la comunidad de ISKCON Chile y el movimiento de Srila Prabhupada.

H. H. HpS Maharaja! Dandavat Pranam!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Guruji Maharaja’s Padama Charan that I am so happy to get Gurugi Maharaja's reply so soon, and it is my first letter written in this block. [Blog] I could not participate the Ratha Jatra in the Imphal Temple due to locked down so the activities are normal. In Thoubal also mass gathering is completely prohibited.

HpS - The Gopis had to escape to meet Krsna and then had Mass Gathering, no?

Gurugi Maharaja! There is a confusion between the "Mantra and Gaitri". There are two slokas; one is Mantra and another is Gaitri. What are the differences? Such as Guru Mantra and Guru Gaitri. In the mantra also "Swaha and Namah". Please clear my darkness with the blessings of Guruji.

HpS - We do not understand your question too well. Can you give details? There are many Mantras we chant. Maha-mantra. The Sandhy mantras that we chant morning, noon and night. These are some in the Gayatir meter and so they are called Gayatri sometimes.

Mantra is the verse. Many of the verses in SB are Mantras. They can deliver "tra" our mind, "man" from suffering "separation from KRSNA".

As we understand Gayatri is a meter like the ones we use for the Brahma samhita is the Vasanta tilaka meter.

There is an article on the Wikpedia. I don't know how accurate it is.

Yours fallen servant,

¿Cómo estás guru maharaj? espero que bien. Por aquí las cosas fluyen. Quiero comentarle brevemente lo que estoy haciendo actualmente.

En las mañanas nos conectamos con usted a fmp, luego seguimos cantando a través de zoom con krishna west y estudiamos srimad bhagavatam también, canto 1 por ahora. Luego trabajo como psicoloco desde el hogar por la pandemia, adoramos a tulasi, tomamos prasad con manjaris, acompañamos y guiamos en el canto del maha mantra a personas que hemos conocido a través de la astrología védica que hacemos en tiempos libres (segundo trabajo), predicamos un poco y el día y la vida pasan muy muy rápido.

estamos leyendo sri godruma kalpatavi de bhaktivinoda thakur, traducido por jayapataka swami, preparándonos para nuestro servicio de recepción y cuidado de nuevas almas en el templo de iskcon santiago.

tenemos otros varios proyectos de prédica en diferentes lugares, por ahora todo online, le iré comentando mas detalles pronto. Seguimos como carteros entregando las cartas del acarya, con miles de defectos, pero entregando las cartas.

Me despido guru maharaj, hasta la próxima, reverencias.

T.G.COM -- How are you guru maharaj I hope it's ok.

HpS - ASA - We died and went to heaven. I am writing this from an internet booth here.

Around here things flow. I want to briefly comment on what I am currently doing.

ASA - Be careful! Are we the doer? https://vedabase.io/es/library/bg/3/27/

In the mornings we connect with you to fmp, then we continue to chant through zoom with krishna west and we study srimad bhagavatam too, Canto 1for now. Then I work as a psychologist from home due to the pandemic, we worship tulasi, we take prasad with delicacies, we accompany and guide in the chanting of the maha mantra people that we have met through Vedic astrology that we do in free time (second job), we preach a little and the day and life go by very, very fast.

ASA - Jaya!

we are reading sri godruma kalpatavi from bhaktivinoda thakur, translated by jayapataka swami, preparing ourselves for our service of reception and care of new souls in the temple of iskcon santiago.

We have several other preaching projects in different places, for now all online, I will be commenting on more details soon. We continue as postmen delivering the acarya letters, with thousands of defects, but delivering the letters.

I say goodbye guru maharaj, until next time, obeisances.

Mandara Sakha Das??

HpS - ASA - 1. Thank you for this inspiring news.

1. Jananivasa Das told us that Srila Prabhupada said that if we following the Yoga he is givng strictly, and our children follow it strictly, then our grand children will be traveling on flying carpets.
2. https://vedabase.io/es/library/sb/2/7/37/
3. Guru Das: Srila Prabhupada, what will we do after we make this planet Krsna conscious, Srila Prabhupada: Oh, the Sannyasis will get on their Space Ships and fly to different planets to preach there.
4. Do you have any idea of how to make flying carpets?
5. Put the KDPC from the Kapi Dhvaja in the Title of our your letters!! 🤓

Your chilean spiritual brother, Saci Suta prabhu, want to organize a class for August 9.

The topic is about “the different isms after the pandemic”. 

He explain here: 

ESPAÑOL - Para que se haga un simil o comparacion con eventos que se preparan en chile despues que se levanten confinamientos de esta pandemla, donde afloran movimientos políticos,anarquismo,feminismo,ambientalismo y toda clase de ismos que lleva a la gente actuar más en base al fanatismo o sentimentalismo sin ninguna base filosofica, esto traerá caos. Es necesario que los devotos en su prédica no se identifiquen con estos sentimiento y se apoyen más que nunca a nuestros principios filosóficos para enfrentar estos tipos de argumentos.

INGLÉS [Google traductor]  -- So that a similar or comparison can be made with events that are being prepared in Chile after the confinements of this pandemic are lifted, where political movements, anarchism, feminism, environmentalism and all kinds of isms that lead people to act more on the basis of fanaticism emerge. or sentimentality without any philosophical basis, this will bring chaos. Devotees in their preaching need not identify with these sentiments and lean more than ever on our philosophical principles to deal with these kinds of arguments.

The program would be on August 9 at 18.00 chilean hour. We start chanting Sundal artik and then Nrisimha pranam. Then the class start at 18.30. Prabhu Jagad Guru can be the master of ceremony and Sruti Priya dd the translator. 

Your eternal servant

HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. We already have a program organized by Gandharva Das that day. Also, the focus of the lecture is not very clear to us. I don't remember Saci-suta Das. Is he Chilean devotee??? Is he professional, lawyer, teacher? Thank you both.
