Letters to the editor

Respected Guru Maharaj,

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

I was very worried when I came to know that you have stomach cancer, but later, I could heave a great sigh of relief when you mentioned that it is not so, I have personally witnessed that you eat and sleep very little, you are on the way to become a Goswami.  As a disciple, I cannot tell you what you should eat or how much you should sleep, but certainly, I can request you to eat a bit more.

HpS - ASA - We have thought you have been kidnapped by Kangaroos. No news for so long!

I had a plan to join you with my whole family during your Indian trip, Priya is saying that it is not good.  She says that if we all go, then instead of serving guruji, I would be serving them, so she says that I can go alone, and she would take vacation from her work and would look after the children and I can go to associate with guruji for two weeks.

ASA - Your wife is a saint.

Can you kindly guide me that where I should join you, for Mayapur/Manipur or Mumbai or Vrindavan.  I was thinking that Mumbai is good, since you are going to be there for a week, and then you are going to be in Vrindavan for 4-5 days according to your present calender, am I right? Priya said that better I ask you that where I can be some productive in your service.

HpS - Did you see the last proposal? http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/6016  We will buy the Delhi - Kolkata ticket just now: 21st Feb, Sunday. After that you can see that things are still being fixed, but no objections to the broad plans. Thinking Manipur 4-7th March, Friday to Monday.
What do you think?

Lakshmi said that why guruji does not come to Australia? It has been more than three years since you were here last time and I believe that your Australian experience was not bad, the devotees here loved your association very much.

HpS -   See attached Donkey picture.  North America, South America, Europe, India ...   dead-donkey....   We meet soon.  Get Narada Muni donkey.

Govindanandini said that guruji should come to Azerbaijan -------and the devotees there would be in ecstacy.

HpS - Do they have toothpaste and Tilak mirrors?

Everything is up to you, you are our lord and master, whatever you say, it would be carried out accordingly, your wish is our command.

HpS - ASA ---- Ha!  Ha!  Hare.  Chant 16-enthusiastic rounds daily, follow the four principles strictly, keep a full morning and evening program, and join Lord Nityananda and Srila Prabhupada in Their siddha-svarupas in Sankirtan of the Holy Names.   O.K????? <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" />

Thanks a lot.

yours servant,

Raktak Das
 

HpS - ASA - Ayodhya-pati Das, Bhakti brhnga govinda Majraja was here yesterday. We talked about P Das and everyone. How old are the children? Vanaprastha?  Sannyasa???   You can become a Sannyasi and travel to the Moon to open ISKCON centers.

Waiting for you travel thoughts!

PAMHO AGTSP My dear guru maharaja: I had the opportunity to go to Govardhan for the Seminar of Sacinanda Maharaja some days ago and I met Prasanta Mataji, who is the person who manages the VIHE in Vrndavan. I told her that you would be here next march and about the possibility of imparting a seminar at that time, she was very interested since they are imparting now the Bhakti Vaibhava course and told me it would be very good if you could give a summary or a seminar about this Bhakti Vaibhava. She asked me to call her as soon as I have the exact date in which you will be here and also if you are willing to impart this seminar. On the other hand, Radha Carana and Cakori Radha are trying to contact Janardhana prabhu to also see the possibility of a seminar in the temple, maybe in the Balarama Hall instead of the one in VIHE. So please let us know what would you prefer to do and your schedule here, if you have already any, so we can help you somehow to organize a nice visit to Vraja next march. Hoping to serve you soon Your (trying to be humble) servant Tungavidya devi dasi.

HpS - ASA -- AGTSP  paoho...   We have been working so hard to try to adjust this India calendar. We saw your letter and have been waiting a little to try to fix things. Can you see the suggested calendar that we just posted?   We will talk with Rama-giridhari tomorrow and write to Manipur right now to try to get their opinions fixed.
We want to do this within this week.

As it stands we would be in Delhi on 19th and 2oth of Feb. Maybe we could go to Vraja then. Then on the 21st we have to go to Calcutta/Mayapura for the ILS meetings.  After that maybe Manipur and Calcutta with Prof., then Bombay side and back to Delhi Friday 25th.  We could go directly to Vraja, then return to Delhi 29th. Our flight is late night 29th.

That is just four days in Vraja. We could do some seminars, no?  Make a day trip to Govardhana.

Sounds O.K?

Next visit maybe we can focus on Vraja.

Hare Krsna.

AGTSP   paoho....   This India travel is a little hard because really the only fixed program is the ILS meeting in Mayapura from 24 Feb - 2 March.

So here is our proposal:

18th Arrive Delhi

21st Sunday - Fly to Calcutta.

22nd Monday - Hazar Duari to Mayapura

24th - 2nd - Mayapura: ILS, GBC, Meet the Vaisnavas.

+++++   Dr. Samaresh, Manipur (?),

18th, Friday - Kokata to Bombay (Harsh, Rama-giridhari, Giridhari Gopal??)

25th, Friday - BBY > Del (Delhi Temple, Vrndavana.. ?)

29th, Tuesday, Go to airport, flight 3oth at 2.30AM > Amsterdam.

O.K????

HARE KRISNA: PAMHO. he encontrado uno 10,40 AMS-MAD (No es facil encontrar en esos horarios). Antes no encuentro ninguno.

BCN-AMS  8,55h. Llega a las 11,20 (creo que da tiempo) ¿Que opina? Los dos son vuelos directos.

HpS - AGTSP  Super. Nos hemos enviado nuestras datos de pasaporte etc a su cuenta de internet con copia a su estimado esposa. tienen?

Querido Gurudev: Pamho. TgSP y sus seguidores fieles.

Su propuesta de itinerario parece muy buena. Yo había pensado lo mismo (entrar por Madrid y salir por Barcelona). Ahora tenemos que saber si su billete a Amsterdam no está sujeto a cambios. Lo normal es que no. Entonces quiero confirmar que yo le saco los billetes (Amsterdam-Madrid, Barcelona- Amsterdam). Si tego que sacar los billetes es posible que necesite la fecha de caducidad de su pasaporte.

Este fin de Año lo pasaremos en NVM, en un festival de tres dias.

Sin mas y esperando se encuentre bien de salud se despide

su sirviente

Jayanta das

HpS - Jaya!   AGTSP.   Paoho.   We tried, intentaremos, comprar el boleto de aqui para 1/2-hora pero no exito.

Entonces:  Llegamos a AMS (Amstedam) at 8AM, on Wednesday the 3oth March on Jetairways from Delhi. Entonces, primero vuelo posible aparece Air Europa a las 11AM. Pienso vamos a tener un maleta abajo. One checked bag.

Salimos de AMS a las 3.20PM, Delta a Newark, 12 Abril. Entonces un vuelo muy temprano de Barcelona es bueno, no? Porque facturacion para EEUU es recomendado com 3-horas antes.

O.K. Buena suerte. Claro, si es muy gastoso podemo ayudar con los gastos.

Gracias!!  Hare Krsna!
