Please accept my humble obeisances to your lotus feet GuruMaharaja!🐾 🪷 🪷 🪷 🪷🌺 🌹 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🙏🏻🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🏻🙇‍♂️🙏🙇‍♂️

HpS - AgtSP!!! Are you sure we have lotus feet! You are such an advanced devotee that you can see that?! Wonderful. I was thinking that maybe I have lotus roots, and am a blade of grass in Vaikuntha, Goloka?

Maybe lotus hooves.

Well, obeisances to your lotus feet of your Siddha deha form also.

All Glories To Srila Prabhupada !!!👏👏👏💐❤️🎵🎼

All Glories to You adored Gurudeva!!!👏👏👏👏🎵🎼❤️💐🌺🌹

I want to tell you that I am very happy because thanks to Mother Astasakhi Devi Dasi, who shared with us a Vaishnava calendar app—an app that works perfectly offline!—we have started reading the biographies, etc., of all the Vaishnava festivals. I have been trying for a long time to download each festival, each appearance of a Vaishnava, to read their biography and learn more. I love learning about these days in great detail. We were able to read about the life of Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur, the life of Haridas Thakur, and the appearance of Jiva Goswami! We continue reading about his life and about Vamana Dvadasi. I hope you had wonderful festivals, Gurudeva! I wish you always be happy. We still have a long way to go to learn to honor each sacred day like these! I believe it is infinite! Jaya GuruMaharaja! Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

HpS/ASA - We got it also. It is wonderful. It also tells us when is B. Muhurta etc!

We read in FMP that you might be coming to Latin America? Chile, Peru? Franco told me he hopes we can travel to Chile to have darshan with You. On the other hand, I confess that since the last time you came to Cordoba, I really wanted you to visit our home. I've dreamed that you've come here and that many devotees have come! But again, I'm so idealistic... my house is not comfortable at all, so small... although the land is medium-sized, and I always think that devotees could come and stay in tents... but it might be austere for them... The most important thing is your health, Gurumaharaja, and I think it's so good what I've heard that perhaps you will stay in a fixed place for the three months that your visa allows. On the other hand, when I look around where I live, it is so beautiful. There is the river right in front of the house, and although it is not clean, the good thing is that it rains often and clears up. Since I first came here, I thought that with the devotees, we could organize riverside programs because it's an open campground.

Sometimes it reminds me of Chosica.And I remember you said it would be good to buy the part of the land next to the temple so it would be bigger. And I think: How much longer will I be alive, Franco? Will Gopal stay here alone? I'd like this place to be for Srila Prabhupada and His ISKCON💕

Eternal thanks, Gurumaharaja. Please forgive any offenses here, any offenses in the programs, my misuse of the keyboard. But the devils are in the details, as you said.

May the dust of all devotees' feet allow me to always chant the holy name. Jay Gurumaharaja!

I keep running after you chanting Hare Krsna!! Ohe Vaisnava Thakura!!! Doyara Sagara..!

🙏🙇🏻‍♀️🌹🌺🎼🎵

PD. I tried to shorten this letter and edited it. I apologize at your lotus feet if I caused you any inconvenience.

HpS - Thank you!!! We still had to scan it, to not lose chance to answer other letters, but we got the essence and the sentiment.

Thanks to Sripada Franco!!

Really we are not sure that we are not going to die at any moment.

Eyes, respiration, ears, heart are all old.

Natural.

Live Old Age so that your bodily elements can be nicely composted and recycled to make new bodies to satisfy the ambitions of the creator of this school.

We just plan to chant Hari Kirtan more and more, internally and externally.

Cooking carrots is a dance.

Yet, we do tend to see tendencies, and, considering the general medical conclusion about our body and it's medical condition, then maybe we go to South America again.

Maybe we go over the border to Mexico October 2-21 when Oscar and Anna are there???

Maybe we go to Spain second week of January for some time and during that, join Yadu Swami trip to India.

Maybe!

For sure, have a Campsite reserved in ISKCON Houston Sannyasi Quarters until December end.

Thank you.

Dear Maharaja and devotees;

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Guru and Gauranga.

On Sunday, September 14, 2025, at 7.30am, Houston time (CST ~~ time zone), we will continue reading Chapter 15 (Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya offers Parsadam~~Madhya Lila); verse 15.261 onwards and we might be able to finish this chapter on September 14 class.

Thank you to H. G. Nikunja Bihari Prabhu for willing to doing Spanish translation for class on September 14, for reading notes of CC and also for translation for Maharaja's class. It will be big a help if more Spanish devotees volunteer to do translation for classes on Sunday, at present we have only few volunteers who do regular seva for Spanish translation for class.

Maharaja, thank you for engaging everyone in reading systematically books of Srila Prabhupada.

[8/29, 10:17 PM] Yamunesvara Das - Manipura: Hare Krishna, Dandavat Pranam.

How is Guruji's health? Is there any plan to visit India especially Mayapur and Brindavan next year? Please advise me to increase Radha Krishna Prema.

: During Goura Purnima. I am reading Prema Bilas in Manipuri translation. The characters of Srinivas, Naratom and Shyamananda are the next Avatars of Shri Gouranga, Shri Nityananda and Shri Adwaita Prabhu.

HpS - AgtSP. Paoho. Sankirtan!

At our age, our only realistic plan is to really consider that each breath maybe our last.

So, we are working on practical plans to be chanting Holy Names whether our gross body is here or there.

Please help us keep our subtle body with Guru and Gauranga in Radha kunda, Manipur, Nabadvipa.

Doctors estimate that with medication and mechanical enhancements we should be functioning at our current capacity for three maybe five more years.

So some discussion is there amongst the ASA Supreme Undiferentiated Absolute Commado to visit Spain and Radha kunda like January or February with Yadunandana Swami.

Dear Maharaja and devotees;

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Guru and Gauranga.

On Sunday, August 24, 2025, at 7.30am, Houston time (CST ~~ time zone), we will continue reading Chapter 15 (Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya offers Parsadam~~Madhya Lila); verse 15.128 onwards and we might be able to cover about 40 verses.

For August 24th class H.G. Nikunja Bihari Prabhu has graciously agreed to do translation for CC notes and Lakshmana Prabhu has graciously agreed to do translation for Maharaja's class. Thank you to H.G. Mitravinda Mataji for always joining session to be back up translator if there are technical issues.

Maharaja, thank you for engaging everyone in reading systematically books of Srila Prabhupada.
