Letters to the editor

Hare Krishna Maharaja, PAMHO AGTSP

Thank you so much for your response and the buatiful pictures! 

I have been attending Mangal Aarti at the boise temple twice a week. And every morning on the way to work I(and with Aja every other week) listen to the Mangal Aarti prays sung by HG Swarupa Damodar Das and prabhupadas version as well. I am trying to commit the prayers to memory and also understand the meaning of the words. 

Lately I’ve been very inspired by Prabhupada’s Lilamrta.

I’ve started a new job at Micron as an industrial carpenter. It’s the first steady job that I’ve had in a long time and I am learning to appreciate the strict schedule. The consistency is proving to be helpful in many ways but it all depends on how early I get up and if I chant at least eight rounds before I go to work. What helps tremendously is if I take simple and light prasadam early in the evening. This makes all the difference. You told me this once and I’ve known it to be true but now I am really putting it to the test. 

I am still playing music. Not traveling very much. Focusing on piano. I’m finally realizing that the bar atmospher is not condusive to spirtitual life. So I get in and out as fast as I can. 

I have been receiving SB verses from a friend and we discuss via text but it is not enough. I will try to make reading SB apart of my morning program. I would very much like to meet this requirement. 

I will be checking in more frequently. Thank you Maharaj. I am very grateful to have instructions from you and thankful to have this ,platform to receive. 

Hare Krishna, Hari Bol

HPS - This seems like an edited version of the last two letters.
You seem to be doing very, very well!   What I have understood from Prabhhupada is that without keeping this full morning program, mangala arati, KIRTAN, SB, then it is impossible to chant really enthusiastic rounds, and eventually we get frustrated and leave.

So, when doe sthe sun rise. in Boise. We have to be up 1-1/2 hours before Sunrise and chanting HK/HR. Then daily SB reading, class, then we will be hot-class servants of God even in Micron.

Thank you for your association.

Hare Krishna Maharaj, just a few more things that I failed to mention before.

I will read the Guru-tattva tonight.

I will attempt to read from SB everyday. 

Thank you so much Maharaj!

Hare krishna,

HpS - Thank you. For the rigid practitioner, success is guaranteed. We will be playing music for Radha Krsna in Srila Prabhupada's band. Last letter.

Querido Gurumaharaja 
Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias!
Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

Los devotos del Templo envían este programa para tener Su aprobación por favor en cuanto a Su participación.

Algo importante, me piden saber si en caso de que se realice la ceremonia de iniciaciones, esta se realizará el día de este festival o ud prefiere hacerlo el día Viernes ?? 

Les urge conocer este dato porque la ceremonia para Sri Nrsimhadeva cada año se realiza pero si se incluye iniciaciones tendran que extender más tiempo como se indica en el programa propuesto. 

Muchas gracias por Su amable atención Gurumaharaja y por Sus consejos. 

Disculpe las ofensas por favor 
Su eterna aspirante a sirviente 
Asta Sakhi dd. 

HpS - TlgaSP. La ayuna es hasta baja el sol, no?   Pienso es inauspicious tener iniciaciones en esta dia antes de bajar el sol y tambien muy particular despues. Entonces, iniciaciones otro dia. Quien es candidato?

1-1/2 hora de clase es posible con Bhajan. Esta bien. Con migo si es bien para los devotos. Puede ser menos si quiere.

Grrrrrrracias!! Manyana a Lima.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Guru Maharaj HpS! Please accept our humble obeisences at Your lotus feet.

Hare Krishna Guru Maha

We hope Guru Maharaj is fine there. Hope this letter find You in the best of Spiritual health. We miss You so much Guru Maharaj. Thank You so much for Your boundless mercy. We had prepared  2 videos and as requested by Asta akhi [sakhi] mataji we have sent some high resolution photos too. Gadadhar Prabhu and JaiBhim Das did most of the compilation. We had sent to Dolores Mataji [She is Lalita gopi Devi Dasi. She is senior professor at Monterey Tech. Second biggest university in Mexico!!] as the files are big and we had to use Google drive. We are sending the links of the videos https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ruNRiHmCh-m3Reu7B7VWNrufGM-qnD2s/view    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PyNhv8x55ug02Z6WkSs30U_Xh8wQiViC/view . Kindly let us know what we can do to serve you better. The duration is slightly longer than what we had planned .  We are leaving everything to Guru Maharaj for the necessary corrections.

Your ignorant servant,

Sarada Gaurangi DD

HpS - Hare Krsna. After two months of hard travel with no health problems we finally got some fever and influenza. We have fought it with yoga nad are winning. Thank you so much and the other devotees, Bhima, Gadadhara, for the effort. We hope this will be the start of a very effective cultural exchange between Manipur and Latin America. We will let you know the results.

Todas las glorias a Srila A.C  Baktivedanta Swami  Prabhupada 

Todas las glorias Ss hanumatpresaka Swami

Querido gurú maharajá por favor acepte mis humildes y respetuosas reverencias a sus pies de loto, permita que caiga un poco de este polvo sobre la cabeza su humilde sirviente .

Hemos trabajado en lo que me siguirio en nuestra utima carta , adoración en casa , un pequeño programa matutino , ofrecer comida , un poco de música y por la tarde un pequeño ofrenda , mi esposa  me ayuda mucho a que esto lo pueda realizar y mi hijo le gusta tocar los cártalos, seguimos en el templo los domingos en mi servio , ahora estoy en el cuarto de pujarís , guardando las ropas de las deidades , el bhakti sastri con madre Candramukhi devi das ya casi terminamos el upadesamrta.

Platique con madre Asta Sakti devi das acerca  de mi sadhana y de mi petición a usted de tomar segunda iniciación , ya tenemos la carta de recordación del templo , me dijo qué si usted está deacurdo ? hay espacio para ceremonia en su intimerario.

Su aspirante más insignificante  a sirviente Mandali Bhadra das
