Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja!!!

Now I'm at the temple of New Mayapur in France, is lovely I really like here and is way better than Germany

https://youtu.be/aCETDX0xQ8w?si=7EMcckvWEeMqfsMy

HpS/ASA - Thirteen years, ago! AgtSP.

In this class (I could not find the minute) you said in one moment "Germany is not a place for human beings" and I remember I was hearing your class and think "this is so true, I feel it so much" and then you were explaining about why, like the temperature, the people, etc. But it's real, I was really unhappy there, almost no spiritual realization or reaally hard to have some.

HpS - Did I say, that? Of course, the whole material world is not a fit place for a human being, so why distinguish Germany.

I think I may have been referring to the climate. Just like the desert is not fit for human beings.

Guess humans live naturally where there are coconut palm trees.

Polar bears where there is snow.

I miss to hear your in person, was one of the few real joys of being here.

HpS - [Some private comments that we answered in private]

Now here I'm thinking to start an agricultural proyect, you think is a good idea?

HpS - In general it is good if it is for Krsna and specific, local, involved devotees agree!

😃

🍎 🍍 🍌

Also maybe help with a Bakery that is going to start, you think is a good idea?

ASA - Same as above. Chant Hare Krsna to see if the Holy Names like the idea. Consult with local devotees for their advice.

Please send me your thoughts, and also, can I write you in whatsapp? I remember that you give me your number a few months ago in Spain.

HpS - We get too many letters on WhatsApp, unless the topic is discussed in general here first.

90% of the letters we get on WhatsApp are 90% about things that can be discussed 90% here for the benefit of 90% of the correspondents.

Then we, 🐵 🐷 🌴 can handle the 10% of details on WhatsApp.

Please take care, I miss you.

Trying to improve sankirtan, is hard in France, specially when you don't speak French hahaha.

HpS- Sharing smile, walking upright, chanting Holy Names is all Sankirtan.

Saturate yourself with nectar and then you will share it everyway you act.

Dear Maharaja and devotees;

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

On Sunday, August 03, 2025, at 7.30am, Houston time (CST ~~ time zone), we will continue reading:

Chapter 15 (Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya offers Parsadam~~Madhya Lila); verse 15.70 onwards

we might be able to cover about 45 verses.

• For July 27th class H.G. Nikunja Bihari Prabhu has graciously agreed to do translation for CC notes
• 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.

HpS - ASA -- AgtSP!!! We do not have to decide what or when to read. Srila Prabhupada's books are like the Holy Names Themselves. They are sweet, and supremely educational wherever you open them and read!

Vidya vadu jivanam.

Read and that reading will organize your thoughts about how to read more and more systematically.

Then we will have systematic, logically organized, knowledge of Sastra, become Uttama-adhikari and then people will spontaneously say, "Oh, my God, who is that person!", just upon seeing us!

AgtSP and Lord Nityananda.

Dear Maharaja and devotees;

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

HpS/ASA - - Hare Krsna. AgtSP. Of course, all sincere ISKCON devotees are feeling pressure to study Srimad Bhagavatam with Lord Caitanya as our teacher, and this is a dynamic situation.

We must be improving our Bhagavata Sanga and system, responding to the changing environment and our personal development!
