Letters to the editor

Maharaj. Thank you for your reply. A few things I’ve gotten to know about myself are, as much as I crave intelligence and mental stimulation, I can’t sit and read (or study) for hours at a time. I figured that was why Krishna arranged for me to leave graduate studies and start working right away. At the time I considered going back for a masters…I studied for the GRE which I hated every moment of.

And then since the score got cancelled, leading to delay in applying for this admissions cycle, I figured Krishna was saving me from loathing academics again. I don’t even know what field I am supposed to move forward in. I have so many interests. I formally studied and graduated undergrad in clinical  medicine, but self taught myself coding and computers and now work in a decent job in IT. I have a life and sadhana in this field (even though it’s not as fulfilling as medical work was)… but I figured moving forth with this would allow for more stable life.

 I don’t think im capable of doing service in the academic field : (

Help Krsna....

HpS - AgtSP.   Paoho.   As far as we understand, in the age of kali, VAD, everything is messed up. the only thing that works is Bhagavata Dharma. Chant Hare Krsna...   If you do that you will know what to do (vidya vadu jivanam). Maybe what you will realize is that you should chant more. Maybe that here is a plan for the next few weeks and it will put us in a good position to take several options in the future, but more than that even Krsna doesn't know what we should do.

So, chant Hare Krsna, get first initiation. Chant Hare Krsna, get second initiation (formally of informally) and then your VAD job will become clear eg. I want to marry Krsna, I want to enter a Vanaprastha relation, I want to marry a cool Ksatriya Dude and send him off to war to fight for the Homeland for Krsna. 

Chant Hare Krsna and be happy.

We talked to Braja-bihari Das about dates for D.C. but seems he had to wait to get back there to fix them. We will text him right now.

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva

Thank U SP for this Guruparampara

Trying to be useful

CMDD

ASA - Thank you. AGTSP.    We are not concerned with how big our results are as long as we are trying sincerely by the correct means. We are sure that the process will porduce the result if Krsna also wants it. Even if it is several lifetimes, who cares. Full Morning Program sets a POWERFUL foundation for the day, just don't destroy it by stupid acts, no?

Everyone should chant the second time softly so that the participants can chant loudly at there end. Of everyon responds online, even one person, there is often a delay for the system to encode and pass everything. One red dot is usually the proper volume.
Hare Krsna!!!!

Hare Krishna Maharaj

PAMHO. AGTSP!

Although I feel I should insist on at least sending you some Guru Daksina now, India may be the better option as I still have to give a handsome donation to the initiating brahmana!

February sounds great for visiting you Maharaj. I will endeavour to make all the arrangement on my side.

I was going to call you incidentally in the USA, but everytime I do its like 4:53am  or 11pm your time. Perhaps you could advise and appropriate time to call and I can organise myself around that.

Please see photo attached for your reference.

Your servant,

Jay.

HpS - Tell us when the beads arrive and when you have the ceremony. Good time to call us is 9AM Nashville, Houston time.   Looks now like we will go to India from beginning January to Beginning February. Should have tickets by end of this month.
Give the Brahmana a hill of sesame seeds mixed with molasses, a cow and a wife.

It is hot here in Tennessee, but after one week of doing our regular program it is straightening itself out as the scriptures said it will and everyday now we are getting a lot of work done.
The work is also getting organized.
We just uploaded an edited tpp.docx to the Archives with latest notes for BG 10. That is our BhSastri/BhVai, class for Wednesday evenings. It is nice.
This Saturday morning we will present the updated Doc file for the series of lectures that Swami Vaisesika Das is doing and a PPTX on Module Six (maybe five) that we did for the BhVai students in Texas, the Marriage of Devahuti.
Then the following weeks the devotees from Texas will finish off the Canto with Module reviews.
Of course, this is supposed to be a way of catching up the work that we didn't get done with our group from San Jose as we went through all this. This is content review, but also chance to fill in the examinations etc, that got lost.
We were hoping to get Vaisesika Das into the academic content part, which has happened so nicely,  Now we are hoping to get Vais, us and Srivasa Pandita Das into a short discussion about organizing the academic management part.
In the broad view of Sastric Education with Rama-giridhari and the MOE it seems to be going forward nicely.
See you Saturday.
 

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Gurudev, Happy to see the success of ISKCON North America Symposium.

    we can see your next India schedule (Feb 2017). Please let us know
    how many days you would be able to give for Pune.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - Hare Krsna, Prabhu!

How are you, and everyone?   Of course, you can see how we are just beginning to catch up with the mail. Really we are getting so much more regulated, enthusiastic schedule here.  We are advancing so much in our sense-control, sadhana-bhakti.

An you?

Our Calendar for India is just now being fixed. We are supposed to talk with Braja-bihari Das today about the Guru, Sannyasi, GBC Sanga from the 11-13th of February. That is the only fixed date that we have in India now. Other than that we would probably stay in Mayapur for a little bit so that we could meet devotees there.

10th January is SB symposium in University of Madras organized by devotees but focusing on external scholars also, but 27 January - 3 February is South American Education Symposium.  So, we will have to eliminate one program.

We hope to have some schedule soon.

Esteemed Lalita-Gopi, Jiva Goswami Das
The plan is to always do a Spanish and English"Solaris", although they can certainly be a little different.
Now we are focusing on distributing the Spanish edition and publishing the English edition.
Now the Strategy is to have a big program on Art and the Sacred in 2018, and a series of regional colloquies on Psychology and the Sacred in 2017, and develop Solaris in parallel with that.
Please make all of this work your own as much as you can.

 Hare Krsna, GuruMaharaja:
 It
 would be nice then to prepare an article about Art in
 english. So, my
 question is:
 Next year 2017, stills Psycology and the sacred
 and Solaris is going to be
 in Spanish. ?
