AgtSP!

TB/BW/ASA - Paoho...... Brother Ass's headache is getting so bad that think we should stop. Still week old letters from CCD and Piyari m. Das, but at his age (Brother Ass) bad headaches can turn into brain strokes.

• Hope to get more rounds done.
• Give class at 6PM for Arequipa (Hari Krpa), and 8PM for Radha-natabara!

Thank you!

Dear Guru Maharaja

Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to you!

I pray that your dental issues get resolved soon and you are free of pain.

HpS - AgtSP. In material life we enjoy our mouth so, so, so much, no? We enjoy chewing. The pain is just the duality of that material enjoyment.

Shadow reflections of the non-dual pleasure of wresting with Krsna in Goloka?

I hope your visit to the doctor helped.

HpS - Damn fine! Now 85% recovered. Surrendering ]MY[ body two teeth at a time.

Both of us are doing alright and Divya's health is good. We get to dress the small deities, Chota Radha Kalachadji (Divya on Tuesdays) and Radha Govinda (Divya on Thursday and I dress on Tuesday).

ASA - Wow!!! 💥

This time we were fortunate to dress on Vasant Pancami and Advaita Acharya's appearance day. I've attached the photos.

ASA - Just amazing!!!

We have been really involved with the Pujari department here in Kalachandji Dham. We did an entire reorg a couple of weeks back with 6 sub departments and working with devotees to take up the head positions and so on.

Every time I engage in management situations, I am reminded about the principles of

1. Who am I,
2. Who are we,
3. What is the Process [Plan],
4. What [Things] do we need ?

ASA - We got it as a mystical experience ☁while at Rama ghatta, but Srinivasa Das showed us https://www.amazon.com/Good-Great-Some-Companies-Others/dp/0066620996", that Micron was using and Stanford had come to the same principles.

I came across a letter that Srila Prabhupada wrote in 1973 about Radha Kalachandji.

"I am very much pleased that the Deities are worshiped so nicely and as this continues, the children there will become more and more purified."

https://vanisource.org/wiki/730218_-_Letter_to_Bhaktin_Toni_written_from_Sydney

I've been thinking about what I am doing and also Dallas as the place that Srila Prabhupada chose to establish his first Gurukula. It was such a nice reciprocation from Srila Prabhupada for what we've been trying to do here in the pujari department!

Can we say that since Prabhupada chose Dallas as the center for education, because of his desire and potency it will be the center for learning in North America like how Navadwip was in Mahaprabhu's time?

HpS - Sanatana Goswami says that every cowherd boy, thinks that he is Krsna's closest friend.

Guess he is ashamed: Why is Krsna so kind to me???? So many other boys live Him so much more than me.

Then SG continues:... and by the nature of the internal potency, it is a fact.

We see that Murfreesboro can also become the center of education in ISKCON!

😃

I am hoping to come and visiting you in Houston this weekend.

HpS - Missed you, but didn't miss you. Right with you now!

Divya Devi Dasi's health is such a source of intense concern.

Maybe she will be personal servant of Saccimata in Nabadvipa in her next life.

Everything we are and we do is only because of your mercy Guru Maharaja🙏

HpS - We are just little bell on the Post Man's foot. AgtSP!

Your servant

Srinatha Krsna dasa

Respected Gurumaharaja, please accept my obeisances at Your immaculate lotus feet

🙏

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!

HpSwami - We, agtSP, are still struggling with eating too much cheese. Think we have un-hybrid Carnation feet at the best.

AgtSP

I am fortunate to communicate with mother Jambabati and she wants to know if the offering she made for her Vyasa Puja arrived. 

She also wants to know if she received her report from Sadana. 

She told me that wants to know if she has had the mercy that her offering has reached her. She has this concern because last year she did not receive a response either. 

She also told me that apparently she plays something on the keyboard that causes her offering to be deleted and that's why she doesn't know if it arrived or not.

HpS - AgtSP. thank you for helping her with the communication. we feel very sad not to be in touch with her.

Looking at the Report List on the Blog, she is not there. 😕

Also, don't remember downloading her offering from the Personal Sadhana posts!!

Maybe you can collect them and forward to us here.

In general, we were doing five classes a week in Houston Temple, so that there was not time to read the Reports or Vyasapuja Offerings, but they are safe. We hope to look at them now that we are here in Murfreesboro, but... right now, after four days here we are writing with headache, eyestrain and wobbling desk.

Yet, we got water, light, heat, WiFi, car, association of devotees, and class schedule is much reduced.

Packing and travel where five days of intense work! 😅

Guess you, Franco, Gopal, me, Mataji ... we are all in similar situations.

KRSNA is like the sun! 🌅

Thank you. 👍

Thank you very much dear Gurudeva🙏💗trying to serve:

Radha Japa Prati Jalpa Devi Dasi

P.S. Her tryptic of her gaura nitai deities is always on our altar.

Dear Maharaj,

PAMHO AGTSP!

There is an incredible workshop happening here in Kalarigram. We are now graduating from long and short stick to horn and sword weapons. Such amazing expert teachers! My body is a lot stronger and their confidence in me is so empowering.

I see such an improvement in me from last year! Physically, mentally and emotionally fortified. They say a student of martial arts (4-6hrs/day of intensive training) especially one like Kalari coming from Vedic traditions makes you shed so many negative thoughts and emotions and indisciplining depressiveness to even stand in class.

Kalari is supposed to awaken your kundalini and reactivate Prana in the body and balance that Prana’s movement through your chakras up and down. It’s supposed to balance your ida and pingala energies.

I can see the results in my health too! Finally after 8 months of this struggling sadhana (4-5hrs/day) I’m starting to experience a little drop of its potency. One lecturer shared that Lord Shiva, who himself lived in the mountains created all these art forms for our benefit: dance, yoga and Kalari!

Now I’m starting to understand why you may have advised me to take this training. It was tooth and back breakingly hard in the beginning 😂, but it’s incredibly strengthening.

First the mind’s forbearance has to be activated fully to not drop to being tortured by the intensity of the practice but instead to rise with the prana and be able to tolerate the level of pain!!! I feel like if I continue to train like this, I could lead an army 😂! 🤩

ASA - The Salvation Army [https://www.salvationarmyusa.org/usn/]??? 🙂

I don’t know of a better cleanse, from somatic release (sweating till all your clothes are dripping) to washing out and dropping out of your system all excess emotions and baggage.

Otherwise you simply can’t get through so many hours of training in martial arts!

You really learn to work with your mind and body to reduce engagement in draining activities and simultaneously channel natural sources of energy like sound, sun, air, and diet etc. to stay recharge…amazing 🤯.

When you initially gave me this instruction I was honestly a bit shocked.

I felt it so unnatural almost, coming from elegant dancer training into this military martial arts lifestyle.

Now seeing these wonderful results, my heart is filled with such gratitude! Thank you so much Maharaj. 🙏🏻

YAS,

SM DD

HpS - 💥AgtSP... and your Bhakti. Do your instructors et al, know that you are Gaudiya Vaisnava?

Helping with your hearing and chanting?

Manipuri Martial Arts are also accommodating to girls.

Very nice report!

Think is inspiring for everyone.

Seems it may fit in here in The Boro very well!

When is Sri Hari Das coming?



Maharaj,

PAMHO AGTSP!

You requested to see my work by April 🙏🏻.

HpS/ASA - Well, agtSP, Tom Brown and Buck White were thinking that April 16th [?], Rama-navami, would be a good day for some sneak preview of work in progress.

When is Sri Hari Das reaching Tennessee?

Maybe we can go for a day's outing to Houston for a Director's event.

Here is a basic plot and some descriptions of various characters for the “Ramayan in a New Bottle”.

American's gods [Godhead?] come from British Adventurers,

old gods from Norse or Greek Mythology,

some Abrahamic mythology (Neil Gaiman’s work),

and new gods, [science and industrial] technology.

ASA - USA and Canada = British Adventurers. Other Americans ie. Latin Americans = Spanish Adventurers, also good audience?

I’m trying to show Ravana as made by extra-terrestrial gene splicing, now living in Dubai, as a sheikh in his golden mansion and golden flying car, owns 9 businesses.

Please let me know if you think this is alright and I’ll develop it further.

YAS,

SM DD

HpS - Sorry, taking so long to answer. Even now we are writing with serious headache and of course some eye strain, but happy. Very motivated by this project.

What about, no great SciFi elements, but just using modern types. Eg. Ravana can be the Director, 51% Owner, of a Global business conglomerate, From South India. Even Ceylon.

Not too many character and plot angles have to match. A word to the wise is sufficient.

Who will be Rama??

Sita???
