All Glories to Srila Prabhupada. All Glories to you & Vaisnavas.
Please accept my most humble obeisances to your feet.
Long time ago from my last letter, sorry for that. Hope your health is high <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="https://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />
I’m writing for tell you what I’m doing.
Grihasta life go really good, we are engage in Deity adoration (about that I attach a letter before that) at home, we want to improve our standard and our devotion. Make a few weeks we gone to Sri Govardhan in Mar del Plata, so beautiful place. I’ve remember when you go and nobody lived there yet. I can’t believe how beautiful is this place, the deities, the temple, the place, everything so delicate, really like it.
I’m began to study Astrology with Gunesvara Prabhu (Srila Prabhupada Disciple), so complex, hope can understand it well.
Tomorrow will be the Ratha Yatra here in Argentina, I’m not involve in organization any more, I will be in "Srila Prabhupada Tent" trying to distribute some books for His and Your pleasure.
I feel so inspired for the pictures I’ve see about Art & Sacred I’m REALLY HAPPY to see how your seeds grow strong, I want to congratulate to organizers and participants.
Make a few months my mom was interned in a hospital, and some weeks ago the doctors said that’s she have a uterus cancer, this new is so hard for me, now I’m so active seeking for new treatments to can help her in some way, and triying to help her heal inside, from the heart. I know that Krishna has put the result, but I beg for your blessings to empower me to do something real for help her.
HpS - Thank you for the news!! Your Mom is in the middle of a crazy jungle. Poisonous plants, spiders, nice sunshine, sweet nutritious fruit, but all of it, heal the uterus, remove the uterus or testicles, is just a joke. The only real solution is to get on a very good raft, life-boat, and see the difference between dry land, the boat, and the ocean. Help here with that. Krsna will give you intelligence.
For finish, His Holiness Srila Virabahu Maharaja, visited Arg, and with my husband (who is disciple from He) try to always serve Him and take instructions to go forward in Grihasta asram and the teaching inside it.
Sorry for my long letter. Thanks for your time.
There’s no day that I not remember you my dear Gurudev.
Who want to serve you with love and devotion

HpS - Not a long letter. A good letter. Respects to your esteemed husband. He is a real man, no?! We hope the pictures get attached later. After like seven years, Prahlada is having to renovate this Blog.
Again thank you. Go right ahead!!
Haré krsna Gurudev por favor acepte mis reverencias . Después de estar tres meses en sillón Zúrich regresamos a vrindavan en kartik todo increíble psrikrams , kirtans todo super inspirador ahora estamos realizando dandavat parikram en Govardhan como parte de una promesa de haber llegado al dham .

Su eterno sirviente Rohini kumar das
HpS - TLGASP. Bien interesante. Aparece a nosotros solamente una persona favoricido por Krsna puede viajar y experimentar las cosas que describa!
Y Y Y las Kirtan de Srila Prabhupada en sus libros. Esta entrando mas y mas furiosamente en ellos tambien? Toda la demas que describa arriba puede ser el mejor sendero par Vd y otros entrar en ellos.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Guru Maharaj! Please accept our humble obeisances at Your sweet sweet Lotus feet.
Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj,
Thank you so much for the reply. We receive DTC news and we are always eager to get connected with Guru Maharaj's activities.
Its so nice that the India calendar is coming up finally. Could we celebrate Holi Sankirtan here at Imphal for at least a day on 22nd March next year? Here the kirtan starts on Gaura Purnima ....and goes on for full 5 days. As Guru Maharaj plans to leave India from Bombay on 22nd , we are afraid that we might just miss the opportunity to be in Guru Maharaj's sankirtan party!!
Regarding Guru Maharaj's visit to North East, we requested HH Bhakti Ananda Haridas Goswami Maharaj for advice and we feel it would be best to organize the programmes at RadhaKrishnachandra Manimandir, Imphal ISKCON. We are sure RadhaKrishnachandra will provide amazing darshan , accomodation and prasadam to all of us. We have regular temple programmes here and Guru Maharaj would not have to travel so much....we care for Guru Maharaj's health. We could invite all our Godbrothers and Godsisters of the North East so that we may have Guru Maharaj's transcendental association.
We eagerly wait for Guru Maharaj's instructions.
Your ignorant servant always,
Sarada Gaurangi DD
HpS - Hare Krsna. You can see we just posted another file on this topic in response to Yamunesvara Das' questions. Do the dates seem O.K. there? We tried to get enough time for everywhere. Maybe it would be too much to visit Silchar. We don't know. Yes, we would need some help for our body to do this much traveling.
Waiting for your news.
Hare Krishna
Hanumatpresaka Swami,
please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Prabhupada!
I have a big dilemma. One of the 4 regulative principles is ahimsa, not eating meat, not hurting others (or the least possible), that's how I understand it. If to obtain industrial milk, the cows are exploited, raped and separated from their babies, who are subsequently deprived of their milk and sent to the slaughterhouse in the case of males, all this process is very painful.
I understand that killing cows is not ahimsa.
In addition there is no dairy industry as such, since beef comes from the same industry from which the milk comes. If we buy industrial dairy, we are paying to kill and injure cows. Their udders are wounded and infected, which is very very painful, their minds are disturbed, they are given antidepressants to overcome the traumas of being separated from their babies again and again year after year, in addition to physical exploitation. These cows live about 6 - 7 years, when they could live 20. It is also violence against the calves, since they separate them from their mothers as soon as they are born and do not allow them to suckle from their udders, and then kill them.
They suffer a lot of terror and pain. This should not be justified with what is for Krishna or what is Kali yuga. Rather, I think these are excuses for satisfying the tongue, which is no different from eating meat (because you are mistreating cows as in a concentration camp to get that milk).
That is to say, for me to offer sweets, guewes, dairy products to Krishna, I have to collaborate with the physical and psychological mistreatment of hundreds of cows and also collaborate with the killing of calves and cows. It seems to me a barbarity to justify violence by saying that it is in the name of God.
I am very confused and I do not understand why this is normal and the devotees accept it, could you please advise me on this. What do you think? Thank you very much, your servant Arina.
HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. We answered this in a previous Blog post. Do you read the posts? We don't do too many while we are traveling. Now with the current arrangement for the Blog (PND is improving it!) we can't search for the post very easy.
Trying to accomplish several things at the same time we updated our "asa-encyclopedia.docx" file in the Archives in our webpage, www.jayarama.us with an entry on our understanding of Vegan diet.
There a lot more things that could be said, but we would like to hear your ideas on this first.
Thank you,
Hare Krsna!
