HK, pamho querido Guru Maharaja:
Estamos más que felices porque falta un mes para que esté en España. Siguiendo su buen ejemplo, en mi calendario personal y con lápiz programamos una actividad diferente por hacer cada semana, hay muchos detalles por resolver antes de su venida.
Tuvimos el buen ejemplo en México de madre Astasakhi, una hermana mayor, muy experta en servirlo. Y en Nueva Vraja Mandala Tarangaksi DD, Yasoda DD, desde meses atrás están coordinando la llegada de los hermanos espirituales, seguramente le escribirán e informarán del área que les corresponde.
Gracias al apoyo de los hermanos mayores Jara Mara Hari Das, P. Jayanta y P. Gadadhara. Ellos tienen muchas responsabilidades, a pesar de eso, están orientando, activos en servicio y coordinando lo de su llegada. Y gracias a Sus bendiciones Gurudeva hay armonía y apreciación, entre nosotros, pensamos que estamos rodeados de gente más madura espiritualmente.
Hoy terminamos de armar el cronograma de su visita con la ayuda de los hermanos “el sexteto” (Jara Mara Hari Das, P. Jayanta , P. Gadadhara, Yasoda DD, Tarangaksi DD y Yugala KD) una presentación tipo calendario, fácil de leer y entender.
Esta semana tenemos una cita con Maharaja sobre más detalles de su visita. Quedamos con P. Jayanta que le mandará el cronograma HpS, después de coordinar con Maharaja Yadunandana, ese calendario se ha trabajado por meses, tomando en cuenta las correcciones y el esfuerzo conjunto de “el sexteto.”
Entonces, Gurudeva pediremos a las deidades cada día, para que lo traigan con bien a NVM. Pedimos sus bendiciones para poder servirlo con humildad, apreciación y en cooperación con los demás hermanos.
No sabe lo felices y afortunados que estamos todos por aquí por su próxima visita. Le mando las fotos de las princesas incas en el castillo de Torrija. Vale!!!
Hariiiiibolo!

HK, pamho. dear Guru Maharaja:
We are more than happy because there is a month left until he is in Spain. Following your good example, in my personal calendar and with pencil we schedule a different activity to do each week, there are many details to resolve before your arrival.
We had the good example in Mexico of mother Astasakhi, an older sister, very expert in serving him. And in Nueva Vraja Mandala Tarangaksi DD, Yasoda DD, for months they have been coordinating the arrival of the godbrothers, they will surely write to you and inform you of the area that corresponds to them.
Thanks to the support of the elder brothers Jara Mara Hari Das, P. Jayanta and P. Gadadhara. They have many responsibilities, despite that, they are guiding, active in service and coordinating their arrival. And thanks to His Gurudeva blessings there is harmony and appreciation, among us,
we think that we are surrounded by more spiritually mature people.
Today we finished putting together the schedule of your visit with the help of the brothers “the sextet” (Jara Mara Hari Das, P. Jayanta, P. Gadadhara, Yasoda DD, Tarangaksi DD and Yugala KD) a calendar-type presentation, easy to read and understand. This week we have an appointment with Maharaja about more details of his visit.
We agreed with P. Jayanta who will send you the HpS schedule after coordinating with Maharaja Yadunandana.
This schedule has been worked on for months, taking into account the corrections and the joint effort of “the sextet.”
Then, Gurudeva, we will ask the deities every day, so that they bring him well to NVM.
We ask for your blessings to be able to serve you with humility, appreciation and in cooperation with other brothers. You don't know how happy and lucky we all are around here for your upcoming visit. I send you the photos of the Inca princesses in the Torrija castle. OK!!!
Hariiiiibolo!

HpS/ASA - Thank you for the news! Hare Krsna. AgtSP!
We have been doing Sunday morning SB/CC workshops for maybe two years now. They were 7.30-9.00AM Houston, USA time.
That is 7 hours earlier than Spain.
One suggestion is that we have the seminars on Friday evening Madrid, NVM time.
Yet that may conflict with receiving guests arriving for weekend programs.
So, please consider these bi-lingual SB/CC classes into the calendar.
Also, our body, voice etc are like 60% dead, so we cannot Chant, Read, interview the same as last year.
Thank you.
We, agtSP,
TB/BW et al
Answered a few letter.
Now we are going to crash!!

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!
Querido Gurudeva por favor acepte mis reverencias tiene ya mucho tiempo que no me reporto con usted pero seguimos intentando desarrollar un poco de amor por Krishna, la última vez que pude hablarle fue en su última visita a México ahí le comenté que queríamos mudarnos a New Vrindavan con toda la familia, ahora ya cumplimos un mes que estamos viviendo aquí dentro de la comunidad y bajo la protección de Radha Vrindavan Candra.
Estamos muy contentos de estar aquí, el lugar es muy lindo y la comunidad de devotos es muy inspiradora en muchos aspectos estoy intentando recuperar mi sadhana y asistir a mangalartic algunos días a la semana en compañía de Gopi Radha que me motiva a asistir al programa matutino al templo.
Querido Gurudeva estamos orando para poder verlo muy pronto 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
PD. Adjunto algunas fotos
-=-=-=-=]
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!
Dear Gurudeva please accept my obeisances, it has been a long time since I last reported to you but we continue trying to develop a little love for Krishna,
the last time I was able to speak to you was on your last visit to Mexico there I told you that we wanted to move to New Vrindavan with the whole family, now we have been living here for a month within the community and under the protection of Radha Vrindavan Candra.
We are very happy to be here, the place is very nice and the community of devotees is very inspiring in many aspects I am trying to recover my sadhana and attend mangalartic a few days a week in the company of Gopi Radha who motivates me to attend the morning program at the temple.
Dear Gurudeva we are praying to see you very soon 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
PS. I am attaching some photos
HpS - Thank you!!
Do some work!!
Invest a little time making Yoga partners, with you you wake up, compare Jaya scores, Sankirtan.
Jaya!
So.... SO.... S O ....... good to hear from you.
We think of you sometimes and wonder where you are!
Just because you are alive we know that you have learned a lot.
Sagacious Aunt, Saranagati Dasi.
Radharani is going bonkers!
You were supposed to be the Manjari who helped comb Her hair, but you are dabbling in the material play ground!
Get it together.
She will have to appear before Krsna with Her hair like a haystack.

Dear Siksha Guru Maharaja, Hare Krishna;
HpS/ASA - Sudama Swami said that when he was with SP in Japan he asked him what was a Siksa guru, and SP replied that anyone who enlivens you in devotional service by citing from the scriptures or previous Acharyas is a Siksa Guru.
He asked SP, "Anyone?", and SP responded firmly, "Anyone". 👍
. . . please kindly accept my most humble obeisances; all glories to Srila Prabhupada; all glories to your good self, his faithful and devoted servant; all glories to all the devotees of Lord Chaitanya, who have dedicated their lives to the spreading of the holy names of the Lord. I have been struggling with trying to find a peaceful moment to be able write some things down, but in my domestic world that seems like a most impossible opportunity. It seems that I am forced to take the time out of my japa to write things.
🐵 🐖 🐖 - Yup! ... but not too much time, no?
I find myself reflecting the many turn of events in my life, particularly during my years as a devotee. It's during my japa period that I can peacefully reflect on how it's all been Krishna's mercy. The tears of sadness and moments of laughter; the blissful association and the painful separation of devotees. It is a very overwhelming experience. When I feel such peaceful moments I can face myself and acknowledge my faults, and my failure to surrender: all of these thoughts are solely due to Krishna's mercy. In this way I can better understand that there is nothing outside of Krishna's mercy: even misery.
It's amazing how these thoughts all come to me during my japa.
I am supposed to be focused on my chanting, and instead my mind is fixed on these sentiments, hoping for some solace or tranquility.
I feel embarrassed with offenses and inattentiveness during my japa. All these thoughts seen to come to me, as if Krishna wants me to know of them and to be aware of them. But I also feel as if Krishna wants me to see how He hasn't pushed me away, in spite of my poor character and offensive chanting: again, His special mercy.
This much I can take in when I am feeling peaceful and serene during my japa. When I am feeling disturbed, it is another matter all together.
I find great comfort in my japa period in spite of all the mental distractions. I find it almost unbelievable how something so incredibly simple, as chanting Hare Krishna can be so calming.
It sounds almost too good for something to be so simple and so true.
I am convinced that Krishna is real, that He is really there in the sound of His holy names. It's beyond my comprehension to explain.
ASA - We are pretty convinced that we are talking with you, and not an AI robot that has invaded your house!!
In the evenings, when the temperature is cooler and things seem to quiet down, I am able to finish my rounds in the backyard. As the sun is setting I reflect on the verse from first canto of Srimad Bhagavatam, "ayur harati vai:" how our lives are diminished with each rising and setting of the sun.
I then wonder about life, why we are born and the inevitable death that awaits us all. I reflect on Krishna's instructions in the Bhagavad gita about working "under His protection." I simultaneously feel within me the confidence that Krishna is protecting me, and at the same time hoping that He is going to protect: remembering all that I have tried to do in my life as a devotee. All of these things go through my head when I am supposed to be chanting, begging Krishna to please engage me in His devotional service. What kind of japa is this?
HpS - Second class???
I do it a lot!!!
I know that my words sound foolishly sentimental, and perhaps even like some mode of sahajya mentality. In addition to my japa, I have found it within me the willingness to visit the temple, but only once every few weeks: and then again, only when no one is around, save and except for the pujari on the altar: I still don't trust or feel safe. How offensive that must sound! At home, our Deity worship continues, as does our japa, daily readings and online classes. And on occasion some books will go out when driving for Uber. I recently acquired a couple of hundred small books for distribution, so I am very hopeful that Lord Chaitanya will allow me to remain connected to His Sankirtan movement through my work.
HpS/ASA - Did we mention Jayananda Das'a Taxi-kirtan? asa[e] - Sankirtan; Jayananda's Taxi-kirtan.
He would put a nice big book on the back seat and when the next passenger got in they would mention, that there was first class book in the back seat.
He would say, what's it about, there was a really interesting Indian guy as my last passenger. He must have left it.
Then the passenger would read SP's book and they would talk about it.
He would suggest the passenger take it with him, and usually he would, and give nice tip.
And with this much having been said, I will close here, hoping to remain a beneficiary of you ongoing kindness and mercy. I am very confident that Srila Prabhupada and Lord Krishna are waiting with all eagerness to shake your hand and congratulate you for your own selfless life of devotional service: inasmuch as Lord Vishnu shook Lord Brahma's hand at the dawn of creation: Hare Krishna.
HpS - Krsna is very greedy, egoistic person. He really wants to enjoy life, so even the tiniest contribution is greedily scooped up by Him and henchmen!!
Your lowly servant,
Balabhadra dasa
Hare Krsna Srila Gurudev
All glory to Srila Prabhupada
All glory to you Srila Gurudev

"nehabikramo naso 'sti..." about BG 2.38+??
Here is the link to the PPTX.
Translate into Manipuri? At least translator should read it first because translating Shakespeare to Manipuri is going to earn her a PhD.
Thank you.
Hope to see you in Nabadvipa with Nimai soon!
