CC Madhya 13.1

śrī-rathāgre nanarta yaḥ

yenāsīj jagatāṁ citraṁ

jagannātho ’pi vismitaḥ

May the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, who danced in front of the car of Śrī Jagannātha, be all glorified! By seeing His dancing, not only was the whole universe held in wonder, but Lord Jagannātha Himself became very much astonished.

🐵 🐒 🐒🐒

we, agtSP, are chanting hk hk kk hh.... hr hr rr hh.

we have no house,

we have no sox,

lie down and sleep on rocks,

but the heat and cold, night and day, social, bestial, relations are all just Govinda's play.

Jesus - Look ye upon the lillys of the field. neither do they toil nor do they spin, but solomon in all his splendor was not so arrayed.

We are alone???

No, as soon as we chant hk/hr under the protection of Srila Prabhupada, we are helping people all over the world.

it is like a whole bunch of people in the movie theater watching the movie. if they begin to sing along with the movie, everyone else in the theater hears them.

Join in.

jOIN IN.

Krsna and the boys love a kirtan-cry from all the trees and streams and animals that make Vrndavana cry: He Govinda. He Gopal. He Govinda. He Gopal.

HpS/ASA - Ekangi Devi Dasi, two months ago!!!

TlGaSP! Pamho! Querido Gurudev, como está? Hasta cuando estará residiendo en Houston? Por favor disculpe las preguntas.

Quiero contarle que al término del año pasado, ayude en la organización de un programa para niños en el templo; un estilo de fiesta de fin de año, en el cual los niños tuvieron un espacio para ellos con clase, dharsan, pradadam y regalos. Resultó se

r muy exitoso. Me gustaría seguir realizando actividades

educativas para niños dentro y fuera de Iskcon y que éstas fueran parte de Asa/Nios. Es posible querido Gurudev? Puedo obtener su permiso y bendiciones en éste proyecto? Estoy siendo guiada por el team de protección al menor a cargo de Krishangi Dd en cuanto a los lineamientos y protocolos y ésto ha sido aún más inspirador porque quiero servir a los pequeños (magnánimos) Vaisnavas.

De antemano gracias por leerme y permitir que intente ser útil.

Un gran abrazo querido Guruji

Vanca kalpa! Cuídese por favor.

TlGaSP! Pamho! Dear Gurudev, how are you? How long will you be residing in Houston? Please excuse the questions.

HpS/ASA - I hope, agtSP, that we answered these questions in other posts, Twitter and now WhatsApp anveSaka groups!!!

Jaya!

I wanted to tell you that at the end of last year, I helped organize a children's program at the temple; a kind of end-of-year party, in which the children had a space for themselves with a class, dharsan, pradadam, and gifts.

It turned out to be very successful. I would like to continue doing educational activities for children both inside and outside of ISKCON and for these to be part of Asa/Nios.

Is that possible, dear Gurudev?

Can I have your permission and blessings for this project?

HpS - NIOS is kind of a distant organization. Like an elephant.

ASA is HpS, Monkey, Piggy et al.

I'm sure that they all approve as long as there is kirtan, stories, kirtan prasadam!!!!

I am being guided by the child protection team headed by Krishangi Dd regarding the guidelines and protocols, and this has been even more inspiring because I want to serve the small (magnanimous) Vaishnavas.

Thank you in advance for reading and allowing me to try to be helpful.

A big hug, dear Guruji.

HpS - 😟 My goodness! A lady trying to hug us!!! 😆 😆 🐘

Vanca kalpa! Please take care.

ASA - Thank you!

TlGaSP

Mi muy querido Guruji. Espero que se encuentre muy bien, principalmente de Salud.

HpS/ASA - AgtSP!!!! Hare Krsna//Hare Rama. Body, Mind and Spirit!

Es una alegría saber que se encuentra muy bien en Houston Mandir.

Éste escrito es para agradecer toda la bondad que tiene hacia nosotros.

Gracias por permitirnos estar conectados en M Arati y por estar diariamente motivándonos a través de los mensajes de WhatsApp.

HpS - Seems a lot of our survival is Krsna and Radha accepting our little service in the regular Deity worship that Srila Prabhupada gives us.

Es tan afortunado tener un maestro tan dulce y bondadoso. Agradezco cada día más a Sri la Prabhupada!

En lo práctico, hace un tiempo estamos (Por fin) cantando 16 rondas y principios.

ASA - ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoqxYqTNKmU

Retomar ésta base ha traído muchas bendiciones y tranquilidad a mi corazón y esto, irrefutablemente es gracias a su constante misericordia.

Con mi hija seguimos tratando de ser útil en el programa de niños durante los festivales.

Tuvimos una linda actividad para Nrsimha Caturmasi y hubo una obra Teatral realizada por devotos adultos lo cual trajo a mi corazón una nostalgia por la compañía Gauranga que dirigí hace tantos años.

El arte dramático es tan cautivador...

HpS - There is nothing greater than Theater! Our Yoga is Gandharva Veda. Singing,

Dancing and Drama!!!!

It is a science.

Become a great Director.

Los Domingos escuchamos su clase junto a los devotos. Yí Lin disfruta escuchar su voz y ahora dice que usted también es Su Gurudev.

Disculpe Guruji por contar cosas tan simples y básicas.

Agradezco su tiempo y comprensión al leer.

Por favor reciba mis respetuosos cariños. Una molécula que intenta servirlo y ser útil.

Con afecto, Edd e Yí Lin Gadhadari (dibujó esto para usted)

HpS/ASA - Super photos. Can take a drama and then sketch it and make it into a video clip. Practice going from stage shows to videos, no?

Post them!!

Dear Maharaja and devotees;

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Guru and Gauranga.

Hare Krishna dear Guru maharaja

All the glories to your lotus feet that are the refuge of the living entities that suffer in this material world,

HpS - We are still maybe 51% hogs, dogs, camels and asses! AgtSP. Agt all of our lotus feet and uncovering them ASAP!

I am Vrajendra Kumara das, your Colombian disciple from Mexico, I have been busy in my Grhasta duties without neglecting my rounds nor my spiritual principles dear Gurudeva (I chant 20 rounds most of the days of my life)

I am receiving [residing?] in Russia and we continue with Daily Gaura Nitay + Harinama worship on Saturdays and Sundays with the devotees,

every morning I listen to your YouTube classes after worshipping the Deity, im doing Sankirtan thru the community of Despertar Espiritual , we have Bhaktas from all Latin America, we are now in the Iskcon online departamento Latín America.

https://nas.io/comunidad-despertar-espiritual

I am still conditioned by the Lust and Angry that comes from this mode of passion that runs through my veins, Guru Maharaha.

I want to know how can I take refuge in the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda? How can I please You? How should I improve my practices to free myself one day from lust and anger?

Gurudeva give me your mercy, let me serve you life after life and explain me how to perfect my existence matter, in this dark prison matter I have no other hope than your mercy. 

Your servant Vrajendra Kumara das husband of Ámala Sundari Devi Dasi

HpS - We are so sorry that we are so slow in answering these letters.

It is so nice to get you association.

We hope,

Pray,

that you have been able to get Srila Prabhupada, Lord Caitanya, Krsna's mercy from so many sources in His ISKCON besides our selves.

How to advance.

I think the answer is to keep right on the same way you have been doing, but just keep on learning how to do it better, faster.

Wars are not won by soldiers who look good and have had a good breakfast before they go out to fight with all the girls waving at them!

Wars are won by wounded soldiers who get up again and again with wounded bodies, damaged weapons and go back to fight because they know it is the right thing to do.

Chant Hare Krsna.

Read Srila Prabhupada's books.

Read them here for us!!!

Thank you!!!!
