HARE KRISHNA DEAR GURUMAHARAJA, AGTSP, PAMHO

Waiting for you to be in good health. Although away from the Temple of Cusco and family estra, not a single moment stop thinking about UD and Srila Prabhupada, this distance is somehow making me mature, but not create, as well as to summarize my life, many good and bad things happened, the good is for His infinite mercy without cause and the bad, because I deserve it, although they are more bad than good, it helps me a lot the little service I did in the Temple to let me keep it alive Thank you very much Dear Gurudeva.

The family is fine, my wife, Nandini and Nilacandra Vrisabhanu (thank you very much for choosing those beautiful names for my children in my care) were put in Cusco happy to see him last time, although it was for a short time. Vrisabahani (short name that I put to my daughter) every time I show him devotional photos, he touches them and takes them to his head, it is very comforting to see those details. I do not go to the Temple very often, the last time was like a month, I took books to Puerto Maldonado to distribute them, it was regular, most of us gave to friends, there is much to do, a lot of fruitive work is confusing us. The Rounds and the Sahana are improving, it is beautiful to sing rounds observing the moon some palm trees that can be seen from my room.

I told him that we were putting together a program to be able to serve him better, we think we have to do something, we are 41 years old, and we are in free fall ..., what we came up with is, that people are already trying to have changes in their life, veganism, yoga, spirituality, but without thinking about religion ... there are four types of people who approach the movement and they are more absorbed in social networks, so we thought, what would happen if we put together the one, ok , there was born Clinic for the Soul, is copyrighted, it is to invite people to travez social networking to have a change in their lives, a way of life based on the teachings of Srila Prabhupadha, Kiiii. Jayyyy !!!!!!, Prabhupada uvaca SIMPLE THOUGHT LIFE ELEVATED this through topics or talks involving people and to find a solution to their problems that are around health, money and love. It is an adventure that will have many responsibilities, I even spoke with a psychologist friend and is somewhat interested. We will start first on Facebook and thus cover other networks, youtube etc. Bottom line is to help people have a better life habit hooking slowly to the consiencia of Sri Krishna, it seems easy but we see that is going to involve a lot with time, we are preparing for it, studying, surfing the internet, courses Couching, there is a lot to do. We are putting together the structure to be able to deliver it, explaining it here is too much. We will try to be your instrument in the service of Srila Prabhupaha. It's the little we can do for you. and we know that we are against in time. It will be an Honor to die through it. Dear Gurudeva.

HpS - Thank you. Hare Krsna!  Help the Temple in Cusco as much as you can!    Start your preaching program simply. See who joins and then expand it by engaging them according to their abilities and interest. Give yourself. Give your Japa!!!

Thank you. We are very inspired by your association.

CONFIDENTIAL: . . .

HpS - Thank you for the CONFIDENTIAL remarks.   We cannot understand the situation perfectly because it involves people we don't know, situations, language problem, but in general we see these kind of problems with money, property, management going on all the time. It is with the Catholic Church, National Governments, family, etc.  Prabhupada said that we can expect it in ISKCON also. Even when KRSNA was personally present in VNRDAVANA there were demons coming causing miscarriages for the girls etc!  But if we are devotees we can see how Krsna is using these problems to accomplish his goals. Never give up the institution, just become its leader if everyone else is failing.

Maybe we see you in Arequipa or Lima en October.

Dear Gurumahara, I thank you infinitely for your time, the only thing we pray is a little bit of your blessings to be able to continue living it, to be able to honor it, we always carry it in our hearts. May Sri Nrishimhadeva always pour out his blessings on you.

HARE KRISHNA DEAR GURUMAHARAJA !!!!!!!!!

Ss. Jagamohan Das.

HpS - Jaya!!   Kirtan, Lecture, Kirtan, Prasada!

Dear Guru Maharaj, 

Hare Krishna, PAMHO

All glories to Srila Prabhupada! 

I have sat down with Radhika Prubhu and we have read about my name. Such a special name name. Thank you Maharaj. 

I have had the great privilege of hearing many of Radhika’s classes here in Boise and being able to associate with him regularly. 

Anadi and I have read the story of Devahūti and Kardama Muni and here are some of our thoughts:

3.22

Very important for both man and woman to be of same quality, age and character to be compatible and successful in Krishna conscious marriage.

Psychologically It’s also very important for the woman to be devote with a focused soft heart for the man.

Wife should not be competitive with the husband.

Seems like it’s important for the man to be very focused on Krsna, not that he neglects his wife and family by any means, but rather his focus on Krishna will only increase his pure devotion to Krsna and to his duty as a man in the family and will as a result guide his family to Krsna.

HpS - Yes!  Your family are all friends of Krsna.The external things will go on more less naturally if you are just fixed on going back to Krsna as soon as possible.

Grhastha life is not about sense enjoyment, but rather, about sense control. Grhastha ashram gives some freedom for sense gratification, the aim being to curb/dovetail the senses by engaging everything in Krsna’s service - making prasadam, having devotee children, giving association to others, giving opulence to Krsna, etc. 

Sense enjoyment should be regulated.

Important to not deny something which has come on its own accord (Gupta’s intervention and suggestion for both) 

We can learn from Svāyambhuva Manu how to properly engage ones household life in krishna consciousness 24/7. By always having the holy names/spiritual sound vibrating throughout the house, by conducting/partaking in morning and evening aratis, reading sastra, always remembering Krsna in everything we do, always keeping the household Krishna conscious.

HpS - !

Should not waste time not being Krishna conscious. Take every moment to remember Krishna.

Looking forward to your stay in Boise. 

Hare Krsna

Yours in loving service,

Nitisara Das

HpS - Four days and we are on the road. Two weeks in Houston, one in SFO and then Boise.

Your realization of Devahuti and Kardama muni is very nice.  I guess the flying mansion in Kali yuga would be an Airstream trailer?   https://www.airstream.com/travel-trailers/classic/     "Starts" at $141,000.  Ha!   Ha!   Hare!   Well maybe you can rent a pickup with a camper back some times.   In any case follow in their footsteps. They all went back to Godhead, full service!!

T.L.G.A.S.P.

Nama om vishnu-padaya krishna-preshthaya bhu-tale srimate Hanumatpresaka-svamin iti namine.

Querido Gurudeva:

Como es de su conocimiento en Bolivia no existe un templo donde uno pueda irse perfilando como candidato a Sannyasa, todos los devotos vivimos en nuestras casas y no creo que esa sea la manera correcta de que pueda lograr cumplir con sus instrucciones.

Motivo por el cual, quería hacerle la siguiente pregunta.

¿A qué templo me recomienda ir a vivir, a fin de poder irme preparando para tomar tercera iniciación?

Atte. Su humilde y eterno sirviente a sus pies de loto Jiyada Nrsmha dasa.

HpS - Espanya con Yadunandana Swami?  Puede escribir a el por direccion del Nueva Vraja Mandala.    Decirnos que pasa, por favor.

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

HpS - ASA -- Human Feet. AgtSP!
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to Guru parampara.

Gurudev, Your all DTC and comments (on blog) contain secret spiritual messages as teachings for us. We try to understand them by
reading again and again.

Your heart sings when you chant!! when we will have that Guru Maharaj. Still need to learn lots of things,
we know Druapadi was not happy, nor Kunti maharani, nor Radharani.

You say "First priority, always love Krsna, smaranam. First daily priority, chant 16-enthusiastic rounds."
so we trying so that we can chase your test which reflect in your words.

You say "Our beads are our worshipable Deity."
You say "Bead bag and Book! Then we can preach"
You say "The only "tool" that works in Kali-yuga is the Maha-mantra. It is so merciful that it will direct us how to use our situation for
serving Krsna."
You say "We become humble as we become self realized. It does not mean to become artificially small or big.
         We have to investigate our position and then we automatically respect everyone because everyone has been
         created for a unique reason by Krsna."

You say "....Chanting 16-rounds is not a product of Karma. It is a relation with Krsna and He will personally make it hard, easy etc."
You say "...Whatever austerity you do is going to have an eternal result..."
You say "...Mangala arati is the best Deity worship..."
You say "...Sadhana bhakta means to understand what are the priorities. It is a great art."
You say "Bh. Vinode Thakura said that if you can do your service your whole life with no concern that anybody notices it, that is
pure devotional service."

There are so many....we have from you. Which make us focused on path. You each word for us will be fulfilled without failure if we
just keep following as you say Gurudev. Your words are very precious for us, your words can not fail.

Thank you so much Gurudev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - ASA ---  It is long time since we hear from you!   Now we think of old Pune Temple.   Where are you?  You left your IBM job, no?   What are you doing now?   Your service?

Hare Krsna!

AGTSP   paoho

Esteemed Blog Dogs, Deans & Devis,
Tom Brown, Monkey, here.

HpS just finished his Yahoo mail and all the Blog letters over three days old.

It is 4.52PM here and Brother Ass is floating near death

FL

       oAttt.
  ting!      ting!   ting!

His eyes seem a little better, but now he is experiencing some nausea. Is that a French word? To such a person the whole world seems to be spinning, but we belong to a different world, if we chose.

We can tend to the comfort of the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada. We can chant Hare!!   Krsna!!!  Hare Rama!!   At his feet in Vrndavana. Vibrating specks of dust. 

---------

One foot in Goloka.

   One foot in the grave.

The Goswami chants with pleasure,

  Even though the heathens rave.

---------

Do you think you won't take birth as an maggot in garbage in you next life?  Our Karma is impelling us from acts we did long ago. Only hope is that we remember Krsna and do Kirtan for His pleasure wherever we go.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama, Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.

We can look at the hands we got. The strength we got, and put our efforts in a practical plan, and do some little thing as a Sankirtan man (or wonder wo-man).

The Monkeys were throwing rocks. No laser directed anti-tank rockets from Huey Apache helicopters for them, but...

.... by the blessing of Mother Sita, they were WINNING.

"Art and the Sacred", that's our show. All the rest behind it, it can go.

Hare Krsna!!!
Beat your drum!  Throw your rocks!!    Don't stop until you are dead!
