AgtSP!

Paoho...

As we remember,when we were in San Jose (California), with the new Temple there, Bh. Vatsala Das, Vaisesika Das' brother-in-law, and a super manager in the medical-insurance industry, was flabbergasted by the problems with the Temple management. So he decided that he would offer to become Temple President, and it was enthusiastically accepted by one and all.

After two to three months he told me, as he shook his head in astonishment, that managing in the non-profit sector was completely different than the business sector. So much of the work for Wikipedia, Green Peace, PETA, is all done by full or partial volunteers.

They are not working because you are paying them, they are working because you are inspiring them. You have to keep high-ideals and broad philosophical perspective alive in the day to day work of the corporation.

What to speak of the religious sector!

He said that managing in ISKCON was like herding cats.

You try to get all the cats rounded up and moving in the same direction, but half of them just look at you in incomprehension and peacefully begin to lick their paws and groom themselves.

Ayeeee!

On the other hand, he said, when devotees are motivated, they will do things that you cannot people pay any amount of money for them to agree to do it.

Hare Krsna querido Gurudev

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

Deseo se que se encuentra bien y feliz ,

HpS - Que Krsna es bien y feliz! En un juego con Sus amigitos!

. . . . perdoneme por escribirle después de mucho tiempo, siempre está en mi corazón y a través de sus clases puedo relacionarme con usted, yo estoy bien de salud (salvo los pequeños achaques propios de una madre de 56 años jajaja) en casa con la familia , mi esposo Jana Pavana das y yo estamos tomando el curso de Bakthi Sastri el profesor es Prabhu Gandharva Das y cada clase es un nectar, continuamos con el sadhana y hacemos adoracion una vez al dia a nuestras deidades Sri Jaganatha, Baladeva y Subadra y el señor Nrsimha .

HpS - Ya es una buena dia morir! Ir a Goloka.

A los devotos de Sri Krishna, no nos perturba esta situación de la pandemia porque el único controlador es el Señor Supremo, estamos acatando las recomendaciones del gobierno, no nos es posible distribuir prasadam (alfajores y otros dulces de nuestra empresa " Tulasi") sin embargo por la misericordia del Señor no nos falta prasadam en nuestra mesa, estamos utilizando el ingenio y la creatividad para seguir cubriendo lo necesario para nuestra familia.

HpS - Ja! Ja!! Pero, mejor morir y ir a casa, no?

Muchas gracias Gurudeva, por sus enseñanzas, por estar siempre para sus discipulos .

Que el señor Supremo lo bendiga siempre y el señor Nrsmha lo proteja.

Hasta pronto querido Gurudeva

Lavanya Mangala dd

Su sirviente del sirviente del sirviente

Actualmente estoy cursando un curso de liderazgo y administración online por la plataforma Cultura del Bhakti impartido por prabhu Parampadam.

Mis reverencias Gurudeva. Hare Krishna.

HpS - Use a Serif font like Times Roman instead of the Sans serif like Ariel! Reduce the line spacing. Make the first points Bullet points. They are called the Masthead: Who is writing, why, when. Look at our Kapi Dhvaja layout.

Hare Krsna Dear Guru Maharaj,

  Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus [lettuce] feet.

  All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

  All glories to Guru parampara.

  Am very happy and grateful to Gaura-Nitai for two bags of groceries there at your porch.

  You are witness of such many many reciprocation of Lord.

  If you still remember the airplane incident. Where airplane went up slowly after your japa.

your fallen servant,

Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - Do not remember 'airplane incident'. The presence of death is very apparent when we are flying, no?? Every bead a Gopi, who wants to dance with Shyama! Knead them and rub them and feed them as they dance along! What amazing plan does Krsna have for your life????

Hare Krsna Dear Guru Maharaj,

 Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. HpS - Still have Middle World feet. Advancing. AgtSP!

 All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

 All glories to Guru parampara.

How you remember Krsna, other than chanting? If you see something do you remember Krsna?

HpS - Do you mean "smaranam"? Let us look at it that way. Remember by so many stimulus: Lions. taste water, Deity, Temple, ability in man, books.............

How many times you remember Krsna very intensely in a single day?

HpS - Gopi bhava = 0. Just intense moments maybe 2-3.

  How you see Krsna every day?  HpS - Same as in first answer.

What is very close to your heart for Krsna?

HpS - Not too much, we are still pretty mundane. We like to see Lord in His Deity in our house and pray to Him about what He wants for lunch etc!

your fallen servant,

Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - We just try to be in Santa and Dasya Rasa doing our Vaidhi bhakti, rituals, m. arati, and doing our Karma yoga eg. Journal Writing for Krsna. We just hang in there and hope for the mode of goodness to open up a chance to serve and then try to take advantage of it while it is there, but we can see that yes we can come to the level of Vaikuntha if we continue and Srila Prabhupada is so kind!!
