Hare Krishna Gurudeva!

Please, accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet!!

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

As you asked us today on FMP, I have heard this morning a Srila Prabhupada class on Youtube. It is a 25 minutes class with Spanish subtitles:

Srimad Bhagavatam class - 1. 8. 28.

"My Lord, I consider Your Lordship to be eternal time, the supreme controller, without beginning and end, the all-pervasive one. In distributing Your mercy, You are equal to everyone. The dissensions between living beings are due to social intercourse".

The part of the class that I liked the most is that "KRISHNA is equally merciful to everyone."

In the class Srila Prabhupada give us a very nice analogy: "Just like the sunshine, the sunshine is not partial saying: here is a poor man, here is a lower class man, here is a hog, I will not distribute my resplendence there. No, the sun is impartial, sun is equal to everyone, sunshine is there open but if you close your door, if you want to keep yourself in a tight darkness....it is your business".

"Similarly KRISHNA is everywhere, KRISHNA is for everyone, KRISHNA is ready to accept you as soon as you surrender".

"Simply we have to prepare ourselves to see KRISHNA....to understand KRISHNA, that is the goal of KRISHNA consciousness".

Thank you Gurudeva! 🙏

ASA - Very, very nice!!!!! AGTSP. paoho. Even if we fall down and act like hogs. Krsna will still send us mercy!!!!! Of course His mercy may be a firm stick to our rear-end to get moving, but thank you!!!

HpS - ASA

AgtSP!!! Paoho & bw.

Brown and White here.

HpS - Is a pretty good guy. Got a lot of work to do to become perfect, but, Hey!, who are we to criticize anyone. We are not even human beings!

-0-0-0-0-

Yesterday he cooked Kitri for Lord Nrsmha deva, but didn't measure the oats to carefully. Ooops. One liter of Kitri. Then, because his mother trained him not to waste a single drop of food, he tried to honor the WHOLE THING and made Brother Ass, you Body, Buddy, as sick as a dog! Knocked the Pitta and Vayu right off their rockers.

Today, the hiccups have gone. Got some work and rounds done! But still nor digesting well. Today we tried more water in the Kitri and it came to 750 ml, but less heavy. Still little trouble digesting, but NOTHING like yesterday.

O.K. 5.31PM maybe we can go walking with Dr. Desai and maybe NGD will get back in time. Sun sets at 4.45PM and it has been raining today.

We answered the letters with the Priority Code, but AMD used one from two issues ago and it changed today!

Haw! Haw! Haw!! "You no read us, We no read you", Joe Banana (an evil Chinese guy who kind of dominate ASA at times.

En las cartas falto la firma de SS. Kesava Swami porque esta fuera de la Ciudad de Mexico, debemos conseguirla?

HpS - Si, o el GBC.

Algun requisito que haga falta?

HpS - Pienso que, no?! Son todos buenas personas!

Muchas gracias, Sus palabras son antorchas que nos liberan de la ignorancia.

Mas adelante puedo escribir un poco mas. Espero no ser una carga sino una ayuda diminuta en Su sankirtana.

Disculpe mis ofensas por favor

Su eterna aspirante a sirviente

Asta Sakhi dd.

HpS - Pienso era un poco confusion por no ser iniciado estas devotos mientras estuvimos en Mejico y en contrasta hay iniciacion de Lalita-madhava, Lalita-radha Devi Dasi, en Houston. La diferencia en la mayoria era que ella a sido co-ordinando cosas unas semanas antes con los oranizadores in Houston y por la fin ella tuvo una carta de recomendacion del GBC. Si estuvimos capaz realizar estas cosas mientras estuvimos en Mejico y los semanas antes era completamente posible hacer los iniciaciones alla.

Gracias a Vd! Y toda la demas en empujando estas fomalidades que representan advanza en purificacion persoal muy bien de los candidatos. TLGASP:

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!! All glories to Guru Maharaj Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj! Please accept our humble obeisances at Your sweet sweet Lotus feet!

HpS - Mostly tasteless lettuce feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Hare Krishna dear Guru Maharaj,

We had a wonderful Nagarkirtan today at Singjamei, about 6kms from our Radha-Krishnachandra temple. After our SB class,as we were about to proceed for our Nagarkirtan, Mataji Nandimukhi DD, our godsister, expressed her inability to join the Nagarkirtan ,as she had to join a religious event in her neighbourhood. She was upset...I was equally upset,though I did not outrightly express my disappointment...nevertheless was quite unhappy at the thought that Krishna will be missing one of His devotees....

Then as we started the Nagarkirtan,we saw Mataji trying to catch an autorickshaw, we thought....for one last time,she would change her mind and join us. Well, she passed by,noticed us and went her way. And lo!! just in a matter of few mins, she took a U turn and joined the Nagarkirtan with us! We laughed like little mischeivous kids!! Jaya Gauranga!! Jaya Nityananda!!

Kirtan is so powerful...so purifying. We go crazy. Thank you dear Guru Maharaj.

We are in SB 3.14.38. Glorifying the Shiva by Diti.

HpS - ...but it says that she was glorifying him with hope of "bribing" him to ignore her transgressions? Is just an exciting story. It is full subtle details. She did not want relations with her husband because of gross lust. She was filled with social lust, to have HER sons. It is quite natural but, even these natural urges can create havoc unless we engage them in Krsna's service. More stories, more stories!!!

Chanting has improved by Your mercy dear Guru Maharaj.

In the last Kapidhwaja... Guru Maharaj wrote about improper honouring of prasadam. Would you please elaborate on this ? We are trying our best to strictly follow the standards laid down by Srila Prabhupada. Please help us never to compromise on Srila Prabhupada's instructions in whatever difficult situations we may be put into.

HpS - Is in many ways just the common situation of us lusty, USA, dogs. We become frustrated by different things. We feel pain on our body and then try to use Prasadam to gratify our senses rather than taking it for Krsna's service. Subtle contamination, but...NOI 1 talks a lot about this with citations from CC etc. We don't want to be an Indra in our necxt life.

Your ignorant servant,

Sarada Gaurangi DD

HpS - Do you have flags and literature, brochures, for distribution on your Nagara Sankirtana!!!?

Todas las glorias a Goura Nitay

todas las glorias a Prabhupada

Hare Krishna Guru.M.

comienzo mi reporte contando que estoy siguiendo mi sadhana pero estas ultimas dos semanas atrás estuve descompesada por que después de 3 años tuve una crisis convulsiva.

no me golpee cabeza ni rompí lengua solo tengo un pequeño dolor en el brazo izquierdo pero lo que mas lamento fue que mi horarios de sueño cambiaron y mi sadhana cambio un poco durante esas semanas pero ya estoy bien con mi sadhana restablecido ademas sigo con mi servicio cocinando a la deidad (estoy mejorando en algunas preparaciones me siento contenta por eso).

yendo tres días al templo a mangala arati ,dando clase algún día que me pidan, limpiando , leo cada día en casa ,también mejorando en mi canto de japa etc... por ultimo le cuento que termine mi curso de discipulos esta semana entrego el examen escrito .se despide su humilde sirvienta Raman Reti Devi Dasi

HpS - Gracias!!!!! Esta professor, Nana, para un muchacho? No puedo decir si es bueno o mal, las enfermidades. M. Parikshit fue maldecido injustamente pero accepto como arregla de Krsna para establecer el plan general de Krsna y tambien bendicion especifica para el. Cuando va a Peru?
