Dandavat Pranam

Please accept my humble obeisanses unto Sri Guruji Maharaja’s padmacharan that  I am so so happly to get Guruji's quick reply. Prabhu Haridasa will arrange Guruji's air tickets from Kolkata to Agartala on the 18th Jan. and by train to Silchar, then from Silchar to Guwahati with Haridas on the 24th by air, then Imphal with me. I will try to contact the initiated bhaktas for Guruji's programme.

Yours fallen servant

Hare Krsna. We have edited the following. What is the Calendar for the event?  We arrive Wednesday, 7th December,  at 11.45AM. Maybe the CCD can give us transport to Nila-madhava Dhama.

Then, we can beg three paces of land from Saranga-thakura Das for accomodation until 12th, Monday, when we fly back to Nashville at 7.15AM.

Thursday, 8th is the only day for the Gala? Can we present something on 'Education with ISKCON' during that time in co-operation with Radha-Krsna and Subhra Devi Das and Radhika-raman Das?

Then, what shall we do for Gita-jayanti? 9th, 10th and 11th? We might do 'BG as Cited by the Acharyas in Cantos One and Two of the SB' and other Bhakti-vaibhava work with RKDas, your good self, Caitanya Das and The Hari Lila Das. Bh. Vai. could actually start Wednesday evening.

Queridos amigos, familiares, compañeros.

Aqui les envio una invitación para la única función que haremos de nuestra película Los Ojos del Camino, antes de su estreno, que será en marzo. Será una función para los amigos e interesados en el cine y en la cultura peruana, para que la puedan ver, ya que han estado cerca a nosotros y siempre con curiosidad por verla. Estan invitados con pareja, hijos, etc.

Será en la sala La ventana Indiscreta de la Universidad de Lima, el sabado 10 de diciembre a las 11 am.

Para entrar a pie, solo van a la universidad de lima y dicen que van a la ventana indiscreta.

Para los que van en auto, hay que ir a la entrada grande que tiene la universidad por la calle cruz del sur (vendría a ser paralela a Javier Prado) (vean un mapa antes).

Pasaremos la película en DCP y en sonido 5.1.

Por favor, si pueden confirmen asistencia...

Un abrazo a todos

Rodrigo y Maja.

All Glories to Guruji Maharaja, Sripad Maharaja and  A.C.Prabhupada Maharaja

Radha Krsna Ki Jay and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay,
Dandavat Pranam,
Please accept my humble obeisanses unto Guruji Maharaja's padmacharan that I got Guruji Maharaja's latest letter accepting extension of one day e.g. 26th Jan. 2017 for Thoubal. All programme were set up through  consultation with Haridas Prabhu. Now he is in Imphal, so I will meet him today and will show Gurujis acceptence letter to him.  The new initiation programme is not yet finalised for Brahma Diksa two members were finalized. I will talk the expected bhaktas personally within two / three days only then I will inform Guruji Maharaja and Haridas Prabhu. Shortly I will arrange a meeting of all initiated bhaktas for final shape of the three days programme.

============================

HpS -  Dandavats, Sahaab!   Hari-nama Sankirtan in Manipur. You will go with us on the trips to Silchar etc???      We received the following letter from The Hari-Das Das:
=============================================

Dandavat pranam Maharaj, 
Please accept our most humble obeisances. All glories to SPP, SG, SSG & LSK. 
Hare Krsna Maharaj, 
This morning we have a discussion about your merciful North East India Tour Programme. Everything is O.K. Maharaj except the date of Manipur leaving because 26TH JAN'17 being Republic Day of India which is opposed by all the extremist groups of N/E India and observe BANDH all over N/E States, plying of vehicles on the roads are almost restricted and no one wants to take risk of untoward incident, hence, BANDH becomes successful.

We, therefore, pray your lotus feet to stay one more day in Manipur and leave for Delhi/Vrndavana next day on 27TH JAN'17. Kindly have a mercy upon your Manipur/ Thoubal disciples & devotees and advise us so that we can proceed further to arrange Air Tickets etc. Regarding initiation programme, we are seeking mercy of your lotus feet soon within a day or two. 
Thanking you and assuring you of our best services always. 
Your servant, 
Hari dasa, 
Manipur ISKCON, Imphal. 

Date : 08.11.2016.

===================

HpS - Hare Krsna.  So, we will plan to leave from Imphal on the 27th for Delhi, Vrndavana early in the morning.

"Vrndavana-dhama-mahimamrta" by Prabhodananda Sarasvati:
Sataka One
5 Think of Vrndavana with love. Roll in its dust. Love it ardently. Please its moving and non moving residents. Worship Sri Radha’s birthplace. With all your heart take shelter of Sri Vrndavana, the best of all holy places.

6 If the Vedanta does not directly describe Vrndavana, why should that matter to me? If the faulty logicians, who are like serpents living in the Vedic literatures, ignore Vrndavana, why should I care? If even the devotees of the Lord do not understand the glories of Vrndavana, how does that affect me? Even if my heart were pierced by thousands of thunderbolts, I would never leave Vrndavana.

7 I meditate on Vrndavana, where the cuckoos sing the fifth note, the flute plays splendid melodies, peacocks sing and dance, vines and trees bloom, splendid and charming forests are wonderful with many birds and deer, and there are many splendid lakes, streams and hills.

See you in 10-weeks. Let us make a lot of good arrangements so that the visit is very productive. Eventually we can all continue this forever. Radha Govinda Chandra Ki Jai.
