Letters to the editor

Hare Krishna Maharaja and Devotees;

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

On Saturday, July 8, 2023, Maharaja is going to be busy in doing home programs in Richmond, Virginia, so it won't be possible to have our regular Saturday Morning workshop on July 8, 2023.

This coming Saturday and Sunday, we will have two consecutive classes for our regular SB workshop.

The Sunday class will be held to cover for class we are going to miss on Saturday July 8, 2023. On this Saturday we will be reading from CC Adi lila, chapter 14, verses 70 onwards.

Thank you to everyone for valuable association.

Hare Krishna, guru maharaja, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Maharaja, we are very excited to hear that you will be visiting us in September. Anantarupa prabhu has bought my ticket to fly with you back to Tennessee and I was hoping to stay for a few days. So can I be there from Wednesday the 27th to the evening of Saturday the 30th of September. Is that okay with you?

HpS - Seems fine with us. Your mercy! Whole week of festivals. We can develop a lot of Sankirtan.

I like to sleep on the floor and I can cook, clean and do any other menial services.

HpS - How about Brahminical services!? 😄

We want to thank you again for giving Yamuna her middle name. ~Tarangita~ It very much suits her so far. Waves of the Yamuna river. Fresh. Not stagnant. Anantarupa Prabhu says that she will bring waves of bhakti to the Boise temple and the astrologer says she will start preaching very successfully at age 15.

HpS/ASA - Jaya!

Also, I wanted to let you know that we have a wonderful new pujari from Nepal named Madhava prabhu. It was a long process getting him here but thanks to Radhika Raman Prabhu and Anadi’s strong and diligent effort he is now taking very good care of Radha Bankebihari. I also really like him. His association has been a very good thing.

HpS - So, nice!!!

I hope this finds you very well.

Your aspiring servant,

Nitisara das

HpS - Look for the internal intelligence that Bankibihari gives you to find the internal thread to reach your neighbors in Boise for the Sankirtan of Lord Caitanya!

Hope our Kapi Dhvaja and this Blog and Twitter are useful!!!

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva.

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

HpS - Thank you so much.

Best Kirtan on the planet!

👍

😾

1. Are all the Leaders chanting 16-nice rounds a day and following four principles strictly?
2. Are they keeping FMS at home or in the GoToMeeting?
3. Do they know the word-by-word meaning of the Gurvastaka?
4. Have they read:

. . . https://vedabase.io/es/library/cc/adi/17/123/

?

🐐

What stupid questions? How should she know?!!

HpS - Maybe can encourage Leaders to follow some standard. We go forward to cultural conquest!

Thank you so much!

Please give our best wishes to Christina if you are in contact with her. Ask her to send some news to the Blog.

BNA to Boi Sept 18 [Mon] SW flight leaves at 8:20 AM arrives at 4:45 PM. $161 per person; 

Boi to BNA on 27 [Wed] SW flight leaves at 5:45 Am arrive BNA at 1:20 PM $161.

I will come on Sept 15 on Delta flight that will get in 6:20 PM.

Nitisaar prabhu wants to escort you back to Nashville from Boi on 27th.

Please look it over, I will call you in 30 minutes if that is okay.

These are all reduced fares. Nitisaar prabhu would like to serve you for a day more (until you leave for Richmond) if that is okay with you.

HpS/ASA:

Thank you for the call et al. As we discussed, this seems like nice arrangement.

We have three months now to work out details of a nice program.

We don't have any proposal from RichMond.

I was thinking about the Rathayatra, and it seems it could absorb too much time? The visit is short and if there is too much kitchen, cart construction, festival site setup, then we won't have time to sit together individually and collectively.

We'll post this all in the Blog to see what is the opinion of the other frogs

Thank you.

IMHO, The chariot is already sitting in the shed. Your presence will bring excitement, fervor and unity, and extra devotees to have a nice festival.

You will be here for eight days.

If we spend 2 days for Ratha Yatra there are still 6 days for individual and group ishagoshtis.

"Hare Krsna Maharaj Dandavat Pranams. Srila Prabhupada ki jai.  

I called you to talk to you about your visit to Boise. After talking to Radhika the most optimal dates will be say from Sep 19 to after Radhastami. We have some alternate dates also but the above seems to be best. I will fly over and accompany you. Southwest has a 40% off sale. I need to buy tickets by this Thursday so please call me. 

I am sorry I could not reply to your message earlier. Thanks.

YS Anantarupa das.

ASA Babbles:

Thank you!

16th Saturday is our Nashville festival. If you or anyone could come in time for that, that would be great. We could leave the day after, 17th Sunday, very early, and maybe be in time for the Sunday Festival.

🛫

How long we stay?

Maybe someone from here would like to take us and stay. If that is the case, we save one round trip ticket.

Seems best to buy now, though, no?

SWA tickets are not lost. Can use the credit for one year, no?

I'll post this and call.

How long to stay in Boise?

"Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Pamho🙏AGTSP!! It's Rukmini dd. On behalf of my family, thank you very much for your response to my letter and your prayers to my grandmother. She indeed had an auspicious departure. We have one last question, we'd appreciate your reply. When would you recommend us to perform the sradha ceremony? She left her body on June 10th.", Rukmini Devi Dasi

HpS- ASA --- We don't know how many days after the departure? Maybe a reader knows and can write. We recommend keep the departed on our thoughts, Bhuvar Mandala, because that creates an auspicius atmosphere for them.

Seems like having their picture and giving them Mahaprasadam at the Sunday feast is the best Sraddha ceremony. Describe the departed's qualities and chant HK//HR for them.

Thank you!
