H. B. S. Damodara Swami, Ki Jai! It is so nice to hear from you. Our vehicle, donkey, is getting older and we cannot travel so much. We will probably go to India in August. Can you host a tour group of Vice-chancellors et al?============================

Dear Maharaj,

Hare Krishna!

Thanks for Your Holiness quick reply.

Please let me know the places which can be selected for cultural experiences during a trip to Your Holiness country.

Regarding hosting of a tour group of Vice-chancellors for a trip within Manipur, I like to request Your Holiness to make me understand more elaborately. 

Your servant

====================

HpS . . . AGTSP  Paoho...  USA is like Manipur. There are some places of interest as Narada muni was appreciating the material world as the production of Lord Visnu: https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/1/6/13/.

The Grand Canyon. Niagra Falls. It is a very big country and things can be very spaced. It is like asking about the places of cultural experience in Europe or India. As for human culture there is not much here. It is a materialistic culture in general. Killing animals and drinking alcohol is so common. 

The events organized by devotees of ISKCON such as Rathayatra are valuable. New York Rathayatra and Los Angeles Rathayatra. When would you visit? How many?  Who?   Best thing would be to travel with a Sannyasi or Sankirtan program during that time.

Our tour of India would be in August, organized by Hertiage Tours from Radhanatha Swami's yatra. They do first class tours. It would be professors and others from South America. Even Vice-chancellors. They would want to see Taj Mahal, Himalyan mountains, and they would also go to Vrndavana, Govardhana Eco-village and meet with Ministry of Education in Dehli... and.. maybe Manipura. It would be chance to establish educational, institutional, links for University of Bhagavata Culture. Maybe seven people. Maybe twenty.

Hare Krsna beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, pamho

The last 2 days I had fever, I do not have voice but I feel a lot much better. I want to deal with two issues in these letter.

First:

I received early in the morning a letter from a godsister who says that she needs to talk with me because she was feeling really bad. Her life was not as she expected and then I thought who gets the life that wants? hahaha. This is not our place and we suffer because we drift apart from the original source. KRSNA. I haven't talked to her yet, but I do not what to said to her. What to say to a person who has lost faith in Krsna? she signs with her karmi name, and addresses me with Hola so I can infere that she does not want to listen about Krsna, but he is within everything. What can I help her?

ASA - Answered this whole letter and then it got lost!! She must be remembering Krsna if she is approaching devotees. She also wrote to us. Yes, in the Peter Brook Mahabharata, at youtube. part two, bhima kills duhsana, his cousin, then he and draupadi, cover dusasana's face and bhima does a little death dance and then says into the camera, "we were not born to be happy.". Listen with your heart. Every situation is basically in SB. You can give good association. She is an individual and will move forward in her individual way, like all of us, with KRSNA, but we can help!!!

Second:

There is undoubtedly an increasing trend towards leaving ISKCON or at least its standards. In the past I did not understand that but many many devotees are becoming disappointed due to some behaviours of some authorities.

One temple president who does not like me even if I was programmed to do the abhisek in Nityananda Trayodasi asked another devotee to do so. When I received the news I just laughed hahaha. Well if you can not handle that I am straightforward so sorry. And the problem originated when another devotee told him that I do not trust him anyway I do not want to bother you with these issues. But I reacted completely calm, if Nityananda does not want me to do His abhishek is for some reason. On the other hand I have gorgeous deities at home. So I will do the abhishek at home for Them. I guess that had grown up.

ASA- "Don't be surprised who goes, be surprised who stays!".... Draupadi got drug into the public assembly in a terrible situation. NOBODY was going to help her but...… live your live with depth. Dance a new step with Krsna! Radha-krsna! She will teach you. Will you be the Draupadi in your next life?????

Thanks Gurudeva for your support and for your letter about Hermanos Espirituales Mayores.

I guess that we focus on nonesense more than service that is why we do not advance.
