Letters to the editor

Narayana-parah Das: "Since you have gracefully accepted to be in Houston for an extended period this time, can we make this trip a more personal one? Just your own experiences, your journey in this spiritual path... the road you took, the Jharikhanda forest you had to travel through, the animals you came across, the ones who tried to make you dance and how you made them dance...

We, as your servants, don't fully know the plans for your departure from this material world. If you are still planning on leaving next year, then a chronological autobiographical account of your journey would be the most essential staple for all of us who will be forced to continue in this world without your physical presence."

HpS - We, agtSP, are amazed that anyone can have much interest in our life. I guess it is like someone who was actually there at the invasion of Normandy. They are disappearing. Some of them remember things and they say that they are as brilliant today as they were so so many decades ago. Sometimes, with tears in their eyes, they say, somethings you just can't forget, no matter how hard you try.

So, if we come in contact with Krsna, Prabhupada, gain a little gold to our color.

Hmmm.

On the other hand. With these four movies we are trying to catch a little of what you ask about.

Inspiring a seminar on the SB would also be personal for us. SB is one of the greatest personalities we have met but... we hope to avoid getting involved in the mechanical arrangements necessary, niyama agraha.

Is that your idea also?

Any more details of how to accomplish your goal???

One thing that hits us is that we 'pascatya bhumite haile' people, Gringos, are filled with 'nirvisesa' and 'sunyavad', so that there may be very little personal psychological content in our lives. Our only hope is following the externals of a personal system and having it go right to the change of heart, that may not really show up too much until we die.

Dear Guru Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

For some years now, I have been supporting a preaching program called "Spiritual Shakti," where we hold monthly in-person classes and celebrate festivals. We also conduct virtual classes every Saturday.

I would like to inquire if you would be available to give an online class on one of the Saturdays in November (04th, 11th, or 25th) at 7pm (Perú Time). The topic could be: "The importance of Holy places"

I hope you are in good health

Thank you very much

Jagat Pavitram das

HpS/ASA - AgtSP. We also put this under category of Calendar Development.

Yes, November 4th. On our calendar. If Krsna desires!

Very nice work.

More news as it comes.

[10/11, 11:28 AM] K G. Boro: Hare Krsna Maharaj 🙏

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Gauranga 🙏 All glories to Srila Prabhupad 🙏

Hari Bol!  

Maharaj will you be coming back to the Boro soon or be going to India pretty soon for Karthick maybe? Hare Krsna🙏

[10/11, 12:08 PM] HP Swami - Prof HHR: We've, agtSP, been based here for six months now, with just one week trips out to East and West Coast.

What are your plans? 

🙂

K G. Boro: Oh ok Jai Maharaj! 🙌🙏

Currently searching for new employment, in the mean time performing guitar Kirtan doing some small books distribution at the same time

Etasa Krsna Das your diciple will be coming to Murari Sevaka farm temple for November 13th Mon - Thursday to give mrdanga classes for the temple devotees and few regular local devotees to the temple

I'll accompany him and stay over at the farm during that time

🙏 I'm just trying to remember Krsna and the deities and serve the devotees

But searching for jobs that aren't too hellish maybe, I'm starting to look toward jobs related to music possibly. It's my nature I realized more and more this last year or so. Maybe music therapy profession. These are a few ideas I have 🙏 Hare Krsna Maharaj

Does this seem like the best idea to find a profession within our nature Maharaj? I've tried so many things, music seems to come automatically to me somehow.

HpS - AgtSP. So many times we see Srila Prabhupada, Krsna, recommending people work according to their nature and surrender the results to Krsna.

So, work related to the music industry seems good.

Since it is Kali yuga the best way to understand our nature is Hari Kirtan.

So 16-rounds, Kirtaniya sada harih (KSHari), always chanting.

We put Sm. Etasa K. Das's program on our Calendar, but don't think we can come. Got a nice program on 14th in The Boro.

Our calendar always in the Kapi Dhvaja. We are packing up and the 19th go to Houston, maybe for three months.

Hope to get your association during that time.

Maybe on your way to Murari you could stop by and we could send somethings for Etasa K. D. et al.

Thank you.

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🏻

Please, accept my humble obeisances!

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj. Dandavat Pranams. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I am chanting 16 rounds and following the regulative principles.

HpS/ASA - Me too! AgtSP!!!!

Janmashtami at the Atlanta temple went really well.

ASA - 20,000 plates of Prasadam?

We are trying to worship our Paramananda Gaura Nitai very nicely. Vishaka dresses them beautifully everyday (Attached picture - Orange dress today).

ASA - They must be very proud. They must be showing off how nicely They are dressed to everyone in the area, Nabadvipa.

We are currently in San Francisco at some devotees friend's house. They just had their Gaura Nitai deities (attached picture - green dress and taller) installed at their home by H. G. Vaisesika Prabhu. He gave them the name Parama Karuna Nitai Gaura.

HpS - I took first initiation in the same letter where he took 2nd initiation. We were in the San Francisco Temple, 455 Valencia St. together.

I have a couple of Tava Pache Pache books and was planning on presenting one to Vaisesika Prabhu, but my hosts told me that He already had one. I will anyway try to give him one if He doesn't have it.

HpS - He is excellent scholar and if he has one he would know to whom to give the second.

We will be celebrating Radhashtami at ISV.

We have made an on-the-fly plan to visit Boise for the Rath Yatra. So excited to meet You during the Rath Yatra Guru Maharaj. Boise Rath yatra was my first Rath Yatra in the US in 2018.

ASA - Wow! Jagannatha Baladeva and Subhadra will be delighted to see you!

Eagerly awaiting to get Your association Guru Maharaj.

Your humble servant

Sri Rama Krishna Das

HpS - Hope you got connection with Niti-sara Das for accommodation and service.
