Hare Krsna beloved Gurudeva AGTSP PAMHO ☺️
I was wondering if your uncoming Sri. vyasa puja will be this year or the next
Do You know the date?
Thanks in advance
HpS - Robot, agtSP, keeps coming back as Jiva Goswami's disappearance day. That will the January 2, 2025.
Thank you.

All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga!
PAMHO. AGTSP!
HK Maharaj! How r u?
HpS - Same, agtSP, as you and everyone else in the material world, but some mercy is squeezing through by Srila Prabhupada's mercy.... ! ! ! ......
Well, I’ve been living in Cordoba city for 3 years, and thanks to Krishna’s mercy I get to visit ISKCON Buenos Aires once a month,
I’ve many friends there and a lot of acquaintances,
it’s a joy for me going being there since I feel so much happiness during the Kirtana, bhajans,
there are excellent devotees there who perform both extatic bhajans and Kirtana, and usually the classes are really good.
There’s a brahmacari there, Gopal Govinda Prabhu, who preaches like heaven, makes you laugh, chill and get really excited.
I’ve been attending to that temple for the past 20 years, and it was there where I had the opportunity to meet you, and a lot of other great Gurus.
Well, the trial went more or less fine, the judge said that, since I had enrolled my daughter in a Kindergarden in the mother’s town, I was like agreeing she moved there, so he decided she must stay there, but I’ve got so many new rights in regard my daughter, now I have like 1 month and a half of vacations with her, and she comes to my city on weekends, I travel to pick her up, and the mother comes to take her away.
You know I’ve been dealing with some serious attachment issues with my child’s mother.
Well. she tried to blackmail asking for favor in return of the chance of me taking vacations with my daughter, and always used my daughter’s maintenance money for her own favour, and many other mean things, and sometimes it’s like I really forget about all of that and invite her out to have lunch or something, trying to fix the relation, when it’s unfixable I see,
and even I always get really depressed after those encounters,
I always retry seeing her.
What piece of advice would you give me in order to quit that addiction?
HpS - Keep deities of Radha and Krsna on you altar and bath them and feed them and live a nice life for them, and develop relations with devotees, some may be like mother, sister etc.
I have another philosophical question, well, we’ve all heard that Krishna’s the supreme controller, and I was wondering, if he doesn’t interfere with our free will, our decision on who to serve, isn’t that like a contradiction? I mean, sounds like that is something he cannot control, in spite He being the supreme controller.
HpS - He choses not to control it. Your daughter is making a bad choice bay buying into Barbi dolls rather than worshipping her own Jagannatha deities, but you realize that she needs to experience the situation herself. You are the ultimate controller, she is the efficient controller and the dolls are the material controllers.
Hmm? Chant, read, associate, serve and you will begin to see how it works in a very practical sense.
And please another question, regarding the Jiva status quo, I understood what you taught me about the Jiva eternal decision on who to serve, whether it’s Maya or Krishna, but I feel a little bit contradicted internally since Prabhupada states several times in the Bhagavata things like “to reach the spiritual platform and never return” well even Krishna says in a BG verse that the transcendentalist who reaches the spiritual realm never goes back, does that have something to do with what you said about that we should never look “back” or “down” in the spiritual process.
HpS - Memory or understanding of the last phrase.
Revatinandana Swami said that he specifically asked Prabhupada about the places in the BG where it says, 'they never come back' and Srila Prabhupada laughed and said that it means almost never.
If a poor man wins the lottery he will never go hungry ever again, right. 🙂
well thank you always for being there, I really appreciate your mail’s responses and you point of view.
hope you are always well.
HK!

HpS - Thank you. Hare Krsna!!! Thank you for the news and I hope several others had the same questions. We just give our answers, ideas, citations, but reading Srila Prabhupada directly is so powerful.
Hare Krishna Gurudeva
Please accept my obeisance
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
While we were traveling back to La Perla from Chosica you gave me one of your most beautiful instructions: “compose songs based on the songs of the Acaryas.” You said that this instruction was the instruction that Srila Prabhupada gave to George Harrison. Later in the Blog you guided me more on how to carry out this activity.
The detail you gave me is that you can change things like “a lotus flower” to “a rose” and not omit the details.
I shared with you two songs that I had created, but neither convinces me in terms of the type of music I compose. I also feel that for it to be musically attractive enough, it would need help from other musicians.
I feel that there are many things that people will not understand and on the other hand several poems are long and it is difficult to maintain that length for a pop song that is around 2 to 3 minutes, generally in a song like this the lyrics are short and a lot of repetition.
I honestly think it would be more attractive to take the essence of the poems and then adapt it into a song that is attractive to many people, both musically and poetically.
HpS-ASA = AgtSP!.... Seems that shorter songs with repetition of basic phrases is also something that the Acharay's do, no? Some of their songs are long Ballads eg. https://kksongs.org/songs/y/yaditeharipada.html
The shorter songs can fit together as a cycle, that deal with the different aspects of the same idea gradually. SB does that in 18,000 verses and many stories, no?
It is difficult to generate rhymes having already created lyrics. I think that if I compose a poem based on the poem and the Vedic conclusions it would be more effective, parts would be omitted but the central idea would be preserved.
ASA - Yes.
The core concepts are maintained, but it is presented in a way that is easy for most people to understand.
I know that this is distorting the instruction, but I have composed in this more simplified way that I propose and I consider that it can have a better effect for the preaching.
But to follow your instruction, I can do a side project in which I translate the songs in a literal, but musically attractive way with the help of other people.
Your servant

ASA - Hear their songs then write your own song. Of course, KRSNA is very involved with everybodies songs.
How are your relations with everyone in the Temple and community in terms of the violence and chaos that your mind created a few months ago???
Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:
AGTSP, PAMHO
I have been under a lot of pressure and tension because of work. Being responsible in my work gives me more classrooms and brought me to the point of being on the verge of surmenage.
I'm waiting for June to end so I can free myself from the workload for the second half of the year.
Despite Prabhu Baladeva's visit, the situation in the administration in Peru is the same. That doesn't motivate me at all. And since I work weekends I can't go to the temple. I'm going to mass every Sunday. I just have to cross the street.
4P / 16R ok
I maintain an association with Palika dd
I promise to be more present in the morning programs.
I treasure every moment in association with you and the good devotees that is what keeps me still in iskcon
Your eternal Servant

HpS/ASA - Thank you for your lucid comments. AgtSP. Paoho.
Do other people in your position have to work so much?
One basic analysis is that 10-hours/week is all we need to keep body and soul together for helping Lord Caitanya's mission.
Thank you again.
Any comments on ASA publications?
Hk pamho querido Guru Maharaja, aunque aun no está terminado, es un primer borrador del cronograma de actividades, falta coordinar con Prabhu Jayanta, Maharaja Yadunanada y otros.
HpS - Many, agtSP, thanks to you and everyone. We just talked with Yudu Swami for 30-minutes. If you look at https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/14974/ you will see our suggestion to visit India (Vrndavana/Manipur) from about 17th September to 8th October with Maharaja and ourselves traveling together.
Then we have full time in Spain with no exterior travel.

Sep
10th - HpS: >> to Madrid with Yadu Swami. Return ticket = 3rd December.
Maybe.... Go to India during Madrid stay. What do you think? Just go and stay in Manipur???
Hare Krishna Maharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you Maharaja.
Maharaja, we, even if fools, are always ready to serve you in Manipur. We have very humble and simple facilities, but you have been always merciful to us by happily accepting whatever simple things we have offered to you during your stays in Manipur. I, on behalf of ISKCON Manipur devotees, am really thanking you from the core of my heart for your love for all of us in Manipur.
Maharaja, please come and stay in Manipur for 1 month or 2 months or 1 year or as par Maharaja desires. Please bless all of us by your physical presence in Manipur. We are ready to humbly offer to and for tickets for Spain and India, and bear the other required additional expenses too.
Your humble servant
Sadhubhusan das
ISKCON Manipur
HpS/ASA - AgtSP, paoho. AgtHH BSDM.
your letter makes me very sad. it is very heartbreaking that you offer us such hospitality. we do not deserve to visit such a celestial place or people as manipur and manipura vaisnava. yet we want to.
we can generate some funds for the trip, but would have to have a care taker to accompany us.
political situation is manageable?
Nectar Of Devotion seminar?
🌠 We just talked with Yadunandana Swami. He is very, very close friend in ISKCON. He is from Spain. Disciple of Satsvarupa Swami. Regional administrator in Spain. Academic. BI/BsdM mood all the way.
We will go from USA to Spain with him 10th September. Then he must go to teach in Vrndavana 19th - 26th.
So we could travel together and then after he teaches in Vrndavana we could go to Manipur together.
He wants some place to write essays from the SB.
Is Manipura good for that?
He would naturally be fantastic cultural ambassador of Manipur in the West.
Stay one/two weeks?
Then back to Spain for Rama vijayotsava on October 12th.
What do you think?
I would like to stay for ever in Manipur.
Maybe we have to die to do that.
