Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja.

Acepte por favor mis respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada.

Guru Maharaja, le escribo ya que en el templo de Santiago nos estamos organizando para el Vyasa Puja de Srila Prabhupada. Cada "familia espiritual" debe ofrecer una guirnalda para Srila Prabhupada, y leer la ofrenda que nuestros gurus (discípulos de SP) escriben para Prabhupada.

Por eso quiero pedirle si nos puede enviar Su ofrenda a Srila Prabhupada, y así podamos leerla el sábado 24 de agosto.

Muchas gracias Guru Maharaja.

Vyasa-puja 2019

“…according to the Vedic system, on the birthday of the spiritual master the disciples conduct the ceremony called Vyāsa-pūjā.” BG 18.75. Esteemed reader, do you also turn to this purport every year during Srila Prabhupada, Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami’s Vyasa-puja?

Our offering to His Divine Grace’s Vyasa-puja, in this little essay, is an effort to illuminate a little bit of the glories of Srila Prabhupada, Founder Acharya of the International Society for Krsna Consciousness, and author of the book KRSNA, The Supreme Personality of Godhead. We are like weak sighted men, standing in the dark, trying, with our candle, to illuminate the Royal Elephant. We do this for our benefit and the benefit of others.

Thus we work to hear other articles in this Vyasa-puja book that make their own attempts to illuminate Srila Prabhupada, and maybe in choir we can get some little, but practical glimpse of His Divine Grace: No one can take everything that the spiritual master is offering. No one can know the Acharya completely.

“The transcendental pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, are so powerful that simply by hearing, reading and memorizing this book, Krsna, one is sure to be transferred to the spiritual world, which is ordinarily very difficult to achieve.”, Krsna, Chapter 90. Our first real contact with Srila Prabhupada was this Krsna book. One of his disciples, maybe Sriman Buddhimanta Das, was distributing books at the Davis Campus of the Universsity of California about 1972 and he convinced us to donate $10 and take one. This Krsna book seems complete in every way but to gain more and more access to it Srila Prabhupada has given Srimad Bhagavatam, The Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Caitanya-Caritamrta, Upadesamrta, Nectar of Devotion, Isopanisad etc.

“The main business of human society is to think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead at all times, to become His devotees, to worship the Supreme Lord and to bow down before Him. The ācārya, the authorized representative of the Supreme Lord, establishes these principles, but when he disappears, things once again become disordered. The perfect disciples of the ācārya try to relieve the situation by sincerely following the instructions of the spiritual master.” SB 4.28.48. When Srila Prabhupada disappeared from our physical vision in 1977 we experienced just what he describes here and took shelter of the remedy that he describes here also. Now we seem to see in 2019 that our Acharya is beginning to disappear again. This time from the natural passing of the years - Disappearing from the rituals of his society, from the recollections of his disciples as they grow old and pass away. This is quite natural but the remedy is still the same, follow the instructions of the Acharya: Chant 16-nice rounds daily on beads and follow the 4-regulative principles strictly. Then, intelligence (Brahminical culture), and organization  (Ksatriya culture), can be cultivated from that root.

What we have been able to take from our little connection with Srila Prabhupada is that the whole process can be boiled down into eight words: Get up early and get your rounds done. Done with enthusiasm. Then your day will be play. Management will be at your fingers end, there will be no question of shortage of funds, people will respect your preaching.

Thank you Srila Prabhupada for giving us this orchard of fruits, roots and flowers in the form of the wisdom and culture in your books. Thank you for giving us a connection to you through the Lord in the heart. Thank you for ISKCON and all its venerable members. We will try to be more sincere disciples and we hope to find some eternal place in your traveling Sankirtan.

One of your most insignificant servants,

Hanumatpresaka Swami

Personal Sadhana and Mandir Report

All glories to A C Prabhupada, Sripada Marsha and HpS Maharaja!

Radha Krsna Ki Jay, Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu Ki Jay. Goura bhakta brinda Ki Jay

Dandavat Pranam,


Please accept my humble obeisances unto Guruji Maharaja's padamachran that I am so sorry, that I could not write and response timely. Now we are planning to form a new committee after expire of the old committee period. Next Sunday, the Nanda Utsav day we will go and try to form the new committee. We had requested time and again but the Secy. is not take up the necessary formalities for conducting a general body meeting.

HpS - It is Kali yuga! Even in Treta yuga there was Ravana!!! Ooof! But Vibhisana was a devotee and had his Sanga even in Lanka. He said that being a devotee of Visnu in Lanka was like being a tongue surrounded by sharp teeth. How are our disciples, your daughter and son-in-law.

My chanting activities is improving and continuing 16 or more rounds. Sometimes tearing in my eyes remembering the wrong deeds in my life and requesting for pardon.

HpS - Yes, and not do more stupid things now!! I feel same way. AGTSP!!!

Now, I am reading 10.33.6 ; Purport - Srila bhakti Siddhanta Sarasvati Thakura states that Devaki, besides being the name of Vasudeva's wife, is also a name of mother Yasoda, as stated in the Adi Purana "The wife of Nanda has two names - Yasoda and Devaki". Please explain the underlying ideas.

HpS - Oooof! I do not know! I've heard that they are such good friends that they have almost the same name. It means like worshippable by the Devas?


  • What about the janma lila of Subhadra, the sister of Krsna and Balarama? From which book we may get the interesting story of Subhadra? Is She the wife of Arjuna?

HpS - Yes, she is Maha maya if we are bad and Yoga maya if we are good. I only know of Her as she is mentioned in the Krsna book. She was born from Yasoda and exchanged with Krsna.

  • How to improve the last one of the 10 nama aparadha ?

HpS - Prabhupada one time said that we should just do it!! Many techniques. See what works, walking while chanting is good for attention for some, not for others. Of course, more attention early in the day! Just try and good ideas will come!

Yours fallen servant,

Yamunesvara Das

HpS - You are so kind to write to us. We really hope to see you soon. Now we go!

O spiritual master! You are nondifferent from Lord! you are giver of divine wisdom to the conditioned souls like me. Kindly accept my repeated Obeisenses to your divine lotus feet. All glories to you. A glories to Srila Prabhu pada. Maharaja please make me ennable to assist you in the service of the Lord.

HpS - AGTSP paoho Thank you for your letter. I hope you are reading the DTCs and the Kapi Dhvaja. Then you can understand that while traveling it has been IMPOSSIBLE to answer all of the very wonderful letters that we get. We see maybe 100 people in a day while traveling. Here in our base camp we finally have some time to answer mail. We are a very selfish person. If we have any good qualities it is because Srila Prabhupada has taken a spark of devotion and used it. AGTSP!

I am very very happy to receive a response from you. Maharaja we are going on Bhagavatam class every morning lecture by Banamali Prabhu and Ramanuja Prabhu and also performing kritan every Sunday. We have also done basic Arcana procedures under the guidance of Ramanuja Prabhu. I am seeing Kapi Dhvaja as you instructed . I am 10km far from the Temple.

Hare Krishna

Your unworthy & unqualified servent

Nandi mukhi Devi dasi

HpS - More news. Send a letter so we can answer it before we start traveling again. How do you occupy yourself during your days? Who are your associates? Do you tell them about Krsna even indirectly eg. the taste in water, the light of the sun.

Después de la lluvia

5 years, 10 months ago by YugalaKD in Personal Sadhana Reports

Capitulo 2: Después de la lluvia

Hk pamho querido Gurudeva creo que en la anterior carta el robot corto texto y no vi respuesta de Ud. después de perder el vuelo intente dos veces más viajar entre llantos y ruegos, la tercera fue la vencida me costó la bolsa de viaje, aun así tuvimos que correr de un lado a otro buscando datos. Aunque esto es una prueba de Krsna saque dos conclusiones prácticas, a veces cuando uno no tiene experiencia en vuelos es mejor ir a la oficina de la empresa de vuelos antes y presentar toda la documentación para tener el visto bueno, lo que piden en el aeropuerto es el número de ticket y este llega generalmente al correo después de comprar por internet. Y siempre es bueno ser uno de los primeros así si hay un imprevisto uno puede solucionarlo a tiempo, en fin hay un sin fin de medidas preventivas.

Me quedé algo asustada pero eso fue pasando una vez que llegué al dham, me encontré con otras viajeras solitarias y diversos personajes de aeropuertos, casi viajo con un devoto de Brasil, pero como la segunda intentada no hubo cupo no fue posible, me pegué a latinos para facilitar la comunicación, pero en Munbai no había latinos a pesar de tener muchas horas de espera no salí del aeropuerto, el sueño pudo más.

Después de 11 días de viaje en bus y en avión, de Lima a Brasil, de Brasil a India dos días de pesadilla, llegué a Mayapur y felizmente me esperaban mis amigas Gaura, Sarvani, lo cual era una bendición. Llore de emoción ante el Panca Tattva. Mayapur es como un lugar de cuentos de hadas, me sentí como una espectadora, pudimos hacer oblaciones a los difuntos, a las mamás de madres Candra Mukhi y Manasi Ganga.

El baño del río me dio mucha felicidad, me despedí demayapur saltando como una loca ante Sri Nrsimha, pronto regreso ese es mi consuelo y la aventura ahora es Vrndavan, al fin camino al lugar más puro del mundo, Jay Gurudeva. Sabemos que muchos devotos y amigos se preocuparon por nosotros oraron por mi bienestar, les estamos completamente agradecidos, sabemos que gracias a ellos pero sobre todo gracias a Sus bendiciones, estamos muy felices aunque con poco laksmi, se aceptan donaciones, Jijijiji.

Su hija que lo adora:

Yugala Kishora Dasi


Del anterior reporte esto faltó....

El día de mi partida camino al aeropuerto me sentí muy agradecida pues las personas me ayudaban con las maletas, el croquis de los devotos, era muy bueno no había forma de perderse, Radha me mando una excelente lonchera, en metro llegué al imponente aeropuerto Guarulios de Chile, felizmente un bus nos dejaban en el terminal correspondiente, a pesar de salir con anticipación había mucha cola, cuando tocó mi turno casi al final el counter me explicó que faltaba un documento, que tenía treinta minutos para buscarlo, lo conseguí minutos después que el counter cerró, la señal de fiwi fallaba por ratos, mi hermano espiritual Abhirama desde Perú, compadecido de mí desgracia, gestionaba en tiempo récord el documento, a pesar que rogué y supliqué, no me permitieron volar, y en un instante el sueño de todo una vida… se acababa en un instante, como si una torre de casinos cayera, así de frágil es la felicidad, en un momento estas riendo y al otro destrozado, posiblemente uno de los momentos más tristes de mi vida. Mi hermana Nitya Kishora que pasó por una experiencia parecida me consoló explicándome que debía llorar y molestar a los counter al día Sgte. para sensibilizarlos y me permitieran volar....

Chapter 2: After the rain

Hk pamho dear Gurudeva I think that in the previous letter the robot short text and I did not see your response after losing the flight I tried twice to travel between tears and prayers, the third was the expired cost me the travel bag, even so We had to run from one place to another looking for data. Although this is a test of Krsna draw two practical conclusions, sometimes when one has no experience in flights it is better to go to the office of the flight company before and present all the documentation to have the approval, what they ask at the airport This is the ticket number and it usually arrives in the mail after buying online And it is always good to be one of the first so if there is an unforeseen one can solve it in time, finally there are endless preventive measures.

I was somewhat scared but that was happening once I arrived at the dham, I met other lonely travelers and various airport characters, I almost traveled with a devotee from Brazil, but since the second attempt was no place it was not possible, I stuck to Latinos to facilitate communication, but in Munbai there were no Latinos despite having many waiting hours I did not leave the airport, the dream could more.

After 11 days of traveling by bus and plane, from Lima to Brazil, from Brazil to India two days of nightmare, I arrived in Mayapur and my friends Gaura, Sarvani, were waiting for me, which was a blessing. Cry with excitement at Panca Tattva. Mayapur is like a place of fairy tales, I felt like a spectator, we were able to make oblations to the deceased, to the mothers of mothers Candra Mukhi and Manasi Ganga.

HpS - Yes, is like a fairy land if you are under the protection of the fairy princess!

The river bath gave me a lot of happiness, I said goodbye to mayapur jumping like crazy to Sri Nrsimha, soon I return that is my comfort and the adventure is now Vrndavan, finally I walk to the purest place in the world, Jay Gurudeva. We know that many devotees and friends cared for us prayed for my well-being, we are completely grateful, we know that thanks to them but especially thanks to His blessings, we are very happy although with little laksmi, donations are accepted, Jijijiji.

Yugala Kishora Dasi

From the previous report this was missing ....

On the day of my departure on the way to the airport I felt very grateful because people helped me with my bags, the sketch of the devotees, it was very good there was no way to get lost, Radha sent me an excellent lunchbox, by subway I arrived at the impressive Guarulios airport From Chile, happily a bus left us at the corresponding terminal, despite leaving in advance there was a lot of queue, when it was my turn almost at the end the counter explained that a document was missing, that I had thirty minutes to look for it, I got it minutes later that the counter closed, the fiwi signal failed at times, my spiritual brother Abhirama from Peru, sorry for my misfortune, managed the document in record time, although I begged and begged, they did not allow me to fly, and in an instant the dream of a lifetime ... it ended in an instant, as if a tower of casinos fell, this is how fragile happiness is, in one moment you are laughing and the other shattered, possibly a or the saddest moments of my life. My sister Nitya Kishora who went through a similar experience comforted me by explaining that I should cry and annoy the Sgte day counter. to sensitize them and allow me to fly ....

HpS - We saw this and answered. What can we say. You are the most fortunate person, girl, in the world. You have seen the Pancha-tattva in Mayapura. Now you will see Radha-Krsna in Braja. It seems the external austerity is really for internal purification. We hope some nice devotee gives some nice donation. Please send more news. It is our life and soul.
