PAMHO AGTSP

Please receive my best wishes so that your love for Krsna will always increase

With respect to your question of the last letter, from part of Ganga mataji  I communicate the following::

1.-from the council of Wilson will be Jivasakti d who coordinates with you, Candramukhi and Abhirama d,(so you avoid loading it with many letters)

2.- Jiva sakti d will meet previously with the council of Wilson to see the program that you sent and the proposals that I sent.

3.-Wilson's board understands that your preaching is focused on Universities and Cultural Institutions.The request that you can grant some days for the preaching in the temple is for devotees and people who can not go to Callao.

4.-Currently they only come to Peru 3 Spiritual Master and you and you are the one who stays more days, So the natural tendency is to cling to asking for more mercy. Devotees are seeing the option to invite other spiritual Masters to ease the burden.

This is where my service ends,Jiva sakti d will be the one who finishes the coordination.

Thank you very much for your tolerance and understanding .

Sri Nrsimhadeva protect you

with affection and gratitude

ESPANYOL - Hare Krsna SS  Hanumat Presaka Swami 

PAMHO! TLGSP!

Por favor reciba mis mejores deseos para que su amor por Krsna siempre vaya en incremento.

Con respecto a su pregunta de la última carta, de parte de Ganga mataji le comunico lo siguiente:

1.-De parte de la adminstración de wilson sera Jivasakti d quién coordine con usted, Candra mukhi dd and Abhirama d (asi se evita cargarlo con muchas cartas).

2.-Jiva sakti d se reunira previamente con la administración de wilson para ver el programa que ud envio y las propuestas que envie.

3.-Adminstradores de wilson entienden que su predica esta enfocada en Universidades e Instituciones culturales.El pedido de que usted pueda dar días para la prédica en el templo de wilson es para devotos y personas que no podran ir a Callao.

4.-Actualmente solo vienen a Perú 3 Maestros Espirituales y usted es él que se queda más tiempo, por esto la tendencia natural es pedirle más misericordia. Devotos estan viendo la opción de invitar a otros ME y así aliviar a usted la carga.

Aquí es donde mi servicio termina, Jivasakti d sera quién finalize la coordinación.

Muchas gracias por su tolerancia y comprensión

Sri Nrsimhadeva lo proteja

con afecto y gratitud

Jiva shakti Das es co-ordinador de calendario con Wilson Jagannatha Mandir Y Candramukhi Devi Dasi es co-ordinandora por ASA calendario Peru.

Hare Krsna Dear Maharaja

PAMHO AGTSP!

I hope you are well and happy in the company of Sri Nrsimhadeva.

thank you very much for answering my letter

And I apologize for taking your time.

Ganga dd has written to you.

Something that we have to improve here in Lima is that of communications, maybe this is because we are not mature. On the one hand Ganga dd feels your disciples do not give you information about you and your program and the information from Abhirama d sometimes does not reach the whole board on time. And often information by letter or phone is not enough, a face-to-face meeting is required where one of your disciples explains your program and clarifies doubts.

This is why it would be good if Jivasakti could be the spokesman between the administrative board of Wilson and your disciples (at this time Jivasakti d has resumed his relationship with the board of wilson and they have invited him to teach for Nityananda's party).

On the other hand both Yamunesvara d and Ganga dd want you to stay at least one night or 2 in wilson, They ask for this so that devotees who can not go to Callao they have the opportunity to hear your classes. And some of his disciples do not agree with this because they fear for their safety and comfort. this is largely due to what happened with SS Prahladananda swami. I talked about this to Ganga dd and she explained that the vyasana where Maharaja sat down, they had disarmed it for a program and the devotee and the devotee who put it back together did not do it well and they did not notice that day Ganga dd was not in wilson she had traveled to Chile and Yamunesvara d does not have the ability to see details and the disciples of maharaja came to clean the room with little time for SSPS to arrive. so the lack is 50% percent for both sides.

Ganga dd wrote to SPSS apologizing for what happened. Authorities will try to give you the best facilities for your stay. As for the programs at the university, she will attend, just ask to be informed in time.

From my part , the program for Wilson would be like this:( I have sent this to the wilson board and I will also send to CMdd)

March 9     4.30- 5.30 pm meeting with Wilson board

                    7pm  class It can be BG or Srila Prabhupada

March 10    6.30- 8am  class SBG Canto 2

                     4.30 (to start at 5pm) – 6.30pm initiation ceremony (it would be better so, so that you do not arrive so late to Chosica or Callao)

March 15    5- 6.pm  there may be interviews

                     7 – 8  class of BG

  March 16     if  maybe you can stay to rest in Wilson and  if it is possible to give us a class of SBG

Note: Please you choose the most convenient topics, for now here in wilson for those dates we will be in cap 15 of BG and and we continue in Canto 2 of sbg although it can be another Canto

April 23    7pm   class BG and farewell from Wilson Temple.( it is likely that a celebration will be made to Sitadevi)

Sri Nrsimhadeva ptotect you

Thanks a lot

HpS - Sounds very very nice.  It is about the same with a few changes to the one that Candra-mukhi Devi Dasi has at http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/9030. Is alright that she just keep the Official Calendar this time and she can work with The Shaktiman (Jiva-shakti Das) in co-ordinating the details with Wilson?

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP

PAMHO

Thank U all so much for constantly being the source of my enthusiam.

Here is our proposal. And a request for all the readers of this wonderful blog

REQUEST:

CMDD: taking into consideration the answer from HH HpS to JsD:

Maybe the Candra-mukhi Devi Das can be the central secretary for the Calendar for this HPS/ASA tour. 

It will be very nice that based on the itinerary that I will post bellow [below], all the devotees who want to make suggestions write to me, so we can discuss and then I will post here in the blog the final draft, in order to avoid misunderstandings.. we are ahead of time, I guess that all devotees are doing an excellent job. Thank U Gurudeva

A suggestion: Also I humbly want to ask that all the ladies who want to give us ideas for the Vaisnava ladies week (April 17th- April 22nd) in Chosica in honor to Sita devi, may also write to us, and together we can develop a great festival in coordination with the authorities from Chosica as well.

ASA - We would suggest the movie, "The Taming of the Shrew", with Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor. Prabhupada said, (Vol. 22, page 533) that we can teach Shalespeare in our Guru kula. It has Spanish overdub and was very poplular and stimulating in Chile.

So much. A drama of Pregnancy of Diti in the Evening (PG 16). Print a booklet with BBT extracts.

Invite the Mayor, Ministers, President.

March 6th: Arrival 5pm, rest in Callao

March 7^th: Beach walk: Meeting NIOS- Sattva Peru, comradely lunch

March 8^th: Meeting with Ramon Mujica, First date option meeting with Minister of Culture: Mr Alejandro Neyra: The date is not fixed yet, bellow is another option for the meeting.

March 9^th:  Interviews with disciples after breakfast.

                         Bhagavad Gita class in Wilson.

March 10^th: FMP in wilson, Srimad Bhagavatam class as well

                     Initiations: 10 am, breakfast and then meeting with disciples, rest in wilson, and in the evening BG class in wilson, then return to Callao [JSD suggests iniations in the evening so everyone can join?]

March 11^th: Internal meetings: the guests will be (actors, theater directors, painters, musicians, dancers, etc. (Venue: Beach house is a suggestion, not decided yet)

March 12^th: Conversatory

March 13^th: Press Conference: Art and the sacred, the venue is not yet decided

March 14^th: Conversatory Art and the Sacred in Ruiz de Montoya [ASA: When?]

March 15^th: Second date option meeting with Minister of Culture: Mr Alejandro Neyra. [Isvari DD suggests BG that night in Wilson and then spend the night and FMP on 16th. We think is good idea. I don't know what happened to Prahladananda Swami with the Vyasasana in Wilson but a long time ago there was a new one and we were the first to sit on it and the back legs broke and we were peacefully looking up at the sky. Maybe Sakata asura is hiding in Wilson]

March 16^th March 18^th: Chosica: Spiritual retreat in a club [ASA: When? Taming of the Shrew that night in the Temple?]

March 18^th : In the afternoon return to Callao

March 20^th: Flight to Cusco

April 17^th- April 22^nd:  Vaisnava ladies’ week

April 23^rd – April 24^th: Meetings with the team of Art and the sacred to finalize details

Thank U all so much Gurudeva and all the devotees in this wonderful blog.

Trying to be useful

HpS - We suggest that you just continue as keeping the official calendar so that it is co-ordinated and then we can work out details here with Abhirama Th. Das et al. Of course, our focus is book distribution!

Hare Krsna Gurudeva

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I hope you are in good health.

HpS - Pretty good but Monkey was reading a medical book and thinks we might have Anthrax, Agina, Arthitis or Apoplexy. He hasn't got beyond the "As" yet.

I am very happy about your next visit to Lima.

Monkey (Tom Brown) - Will there be mangos? Should we bring our own water?

Looking forward to see you. Please forgive me for the long silence, lots of work and something at heart, at mind, feeling disappointed with some authorities attitude

HpS - Radharani has that problem with some of Her authorities also.

About your schedule, aspirants here, Juan, Miguel Angel, Rukmini and Lourdes, are asking me about the day for initiation, also authorities, you say saturday 10th march, so is OK. Also they are asking me to perform the ceremony. Will be very great to have the sacrifice for the evening program, in this way much devotees and guests can be present in this auspicious ceremony, getting also the invaluable benefit.

HpS - O.K. but we have heard that you Peruvians do human sacrifices. So they will get new bodies afterwards, right?

I wish to ask you to have a day for a meeting on education. On march I will be again full time at work, so for me will be all right monday to thursday at evening or saturday morning or afternoon.

HpS - Can you co-ordinate with the Gangamayi and the Isvari and the Abhirama Thakura? The basic calendar has been posted here. Just look at the last letters and use the "Calendar" filter and it should come up quickly. I mention this because the Junta de Wilson wanted some meeting and Abhiram had some artists to meet (want to go?), and Mathuresa Das may come.

Also young devotees, now parents, in Chosica are asking about a gurukula. They are asking Atmananda dasa (JpS) if will be posssible to use the former brahmacari asrama.

Despite all the stuff and mess, to my surprise last december Wilson centre authorities asked me to lecture again on Bg. So since last 31st december I am going again to ISKCON Lima. New year, new time. I am on january vacation at work, so taking advantage to go with Adi Lila every saturday and sunday to attend evening program, lead kirtana and associate with devotees, I was missing everything very much.

And now authorities asked me to teach again the Introduction to Bhakti-Yoga Course. I will do my best. Please give me your blessings to do well. I hope you and Krsna will be pleased. Also will be a great opportunity to teach ISKCON Disciple Course too.

Also I was very happy coordinating godbrothers and godsisters for the last Vyasa-puja, was a success! Aratik, puspanjali, pujas to you, SP and 6 Gosvamis; meaning of VP; your biography, your last year homage to SP, homages from disciples and lot of prasadam, mahaprasadam, cake. Thank you very much for the virtual connection. I personally count 132 different preparations among salty, sweet, salads and nectars.

I am working as teacher at secondary school, two years ago in History and Geography at one school I don't want to go anymore, last year in Arts, Religion and Civics at other now pleasent school. This year they want to hire me again.

Adi Lila is always doing noon offering and aratik monday to friday at Wilson. My son Krishna is 13 years old, going to 2nd grade secondary, learning with the Waldorf method. And now he is taller than me haha.

Thank you very much for having accepted me as your disciple, I hope one day I will be some useful.

Your eternal servant,

Jiva-Sakti dasa.

HpS - Thank you for the news. Maybe the Candra-mukhi Devi Das can be the central secretary for the Calendar for this HPS/ASA tour.   Then return from BsAs.  Then go to Goloka. You can teach science to the monkeys there!!!!!!    BooMM!

Dear Guru Maharaj,

Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and your glorious service unto him.

I definitely plan to visit Houston when you are there and hope to get a glimpse of transcendence after purification in your holy presence in my otherwise mundane world. I will come again with the students here in Kingsville.

Your humble aspiring servant,

Aja govinda dasa

HpS - Jaya!   We also may have a mission for you as Messenger to the Undersecretary of HRD for India.  If you chant Japa and don't cows, ducks, pigs, frogs, snails etc then your life is transcendental. Watch for the magi gick!
