4 years, 5 months ago by Mitravinda d.d in Calendar Development

Hare Krishna Gurudeva 🙏 Please, accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

After coordinating with devotees who asked to participate leading kirtan on "Full Morning Program" the schedule is as follows:

  • MONDAY: HH Hanumatpresaka Swami.
  • TUESDAY: Anandamaya das, Karuna Mayi dd, Parama Karuna das.
  • WEDNESDAY: Yugala Kishora dasi, Alankrti dd.
  • THURSDAY: Mitravinda dd, Tarangaksi dd, Govardhana das.
  • FRIDAY: Abhinanda das.
  • SATURDAY: Isvari dd, Gandharva das.
  • SUNDAY: Candramukhi dd, Parasurama Avatara das, Rohini Kumara das, Priya Sakhi dd.

Regarding "Full Evening Program" (Gaura artik and Nrsimha Pranam kirtan), Anandamaya das confirmed that he will be in charge of coordinating with devotees who want to participate.

Gurudeva, we hope you are pleased with this new schedule 🙏

Your aspiring servant: Mitravinda dd.

TB - HpS likes it, but he is very liberal. We, Tom Brown, Buck White and the ASA Supreme Absolute Undifferentiated Commando (ASA - SAUC) are tough. Be sure that all the Kirtan leaders have read: http://www.jayarama.us/archives/asa-mangala-arati-fmp.docx etc.

(TB - It's really great!!)


Vyasa-puja Calendar de México

Por favor disculpe nuestras ofensas y torpezas.

Estoy tan apenada de enviar este mensaje para distraer su atención. Antes que nada, quiero agradecerle el esfuerzo por acompañarnos en el FMP y apoyarnos en nuestro proceso. Realmente es muy inspirador.

Quiero plantearle la situación que los discípulos en México estamos claramente divididos en dos equipos. Los organizadores nos han pedido unidad con miras a celebrar su gloriosa aparición de su Vyasa Puja, que esperemos podamos glorificar adecuadamente su personalidad, como usted se merece. En estos momentos, algunos devotos preferimos organizarnos de diferente manera y el otro equipo no ha contestado nuestros mensajes, al día de hoy. Quizás lo logremos más adelante. Y esperar complacerlo con nuestro insignificante servicio.

Durante este año, he sido objeto de ... algo de critica social.

HpS - Yo tambien!!! Super, super, super = https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/5/13/5/

He leído sus agradables comentarios sobre la situación de las críticas sociales en el Yatra, y le he pedido a Caturamta Das sus comentarios confidenciales también, y veo que muchas veces, incluso en mi propio caso personal, surgen muchos conflictos por malentendidos.

Por muchos medios, tenemos que tratar de comunicarnos con los devotos y expresar nuestras preocupaciones y luego, a menudo, descubrimos un malentendido básico que puede corregirse.

Nunca se convierta en una víctima, sea siempre un bienqueriente, ¿no?

Hemos visto que ... algunos organizadores intentan limitar el acceso a usted.

HpS - HpS - Siempre es un problema en ISKCON y también en el mundo, pero estamos disponibles en clases, Blog, Kapi Dhvaja y visitas personales, por lo que cualquiera puede contactarnos que quiera. Por supuesto, es necesario algo de NoI-3. ¡Utsahan y Niscayenna!

Por tanto, la petición para su próxima celebración de Vyasa Puja es que se contemplen para los devotos de México: 14 minutos (no 10 minutos), para que ambos equipos podamos distribuir una exposición de 7 minutos equitativamente. Claro, si los devotos del otro equipo están de acuerdo.

HpS - Me parece bien. Diferentes devotos y grupos de devotos que se representan a sí mismos como un Templo de solo un grupo de amigos pueden ofrecer alguna glorificación del Parampara en el evento, ¿no?

Tengo más de dos meses, así que dediquemos tiempo a trabajar en el evento pequeño mi pequeño.

Su inútil sirviente

Please excuse our offenses and awkwardness

I am so sorry to send this message to distract your attention. First of all, I want to thank you for the effort to join us in the FMP and support us in our process of Krsna Consciousness. It is really inspiring.

I want to raise the situation that the disciples in Mexico are clearly divided into two teams. Organizers have asked us for unity, to focus on your glorious appearance of your Vyasa Puja on January 13th, when we hope can properly glorify your personality, as you deserve. At this time, some devotees prefer to organize ourselves in a different way and the other team has not answered our messages, as of today. Maybe, they will answer them, later. And hope to please you with our insignificant service.

During this year, I have been the subject of gossip and slander regarding myself. They may tell me that I have an inflated ego; but at no time I have discriminated and / or criticized any devotee. If it is the case of having a rude comment, I apologize publicly. My psychic structure has a very low self-esteem, due to childhood trauma. Therefore, I have an ingrained feeling of unworthiness, for me, everybody is better than me, in any way. I feel incapable of explaining philosophy well and I don't allow me to defend myself.

We have seen that some devotees take advantage of their position of power to block the service of others. And some have even given up and / or withdrawn from the movement due to the impossibility of staying in a direct dialogue with you. I hope we are not blocked this time. It is simple, they accuse us of being selective, when I think it is the other way around, we are the ones discriminated against.

Our condition of weakness to continue the process is present every day, and Maya is doing her job perfectly. Due to your mercy we are staying in this path.

Therefore, the request for your next Vyasa Puja celebration is that if it would be contemplated for the devotees of Mexico: 14 minutes (not 10 minutes), so that both teams can distribute a 7-minute presentation equally. Of course, if the other team agrees.

Your useless servant

Dear Gurudev please, if you wish, accept my humble and respectful obeisances Prostrate in the dust of Your Lotus Feet.

 All glories To Srila Prabhupada.

The Yatra Devotees of Mendoza and Paraná (Argentina) ask me if you can please give a Sunday class through your Zoom platform, this Next Sunday, or when you can, at 4 pm Murfreesvoro hour. Here I attach the email from Prabhu Dhenupal das in charge of the service.

 Thank you for giving me the opportunity to partner with you and my brothers and sisters in the wonderful daily programs.

 I tell him that the health of this body is quite low apart from esophageal cancer I have a neurological problem (Cerebellar Ataxia) a problem of involuntary and strong tremors that do not allow me to walk or sit, I am only lying on my stomach or on my side. shaking . The body is like that and the merciful Lord is reminding me.

 My material life dropped a lot, but my spiritual life grew much more ... I have better rounds better Gayatri I finished last week giving a weekly talk on The Light of Bhagavata and this week I start a on The Nectar of Devotion. Precisely for ISKCON Mendoza Paraná. That will take a few months. And classes of the Bhagavad Gita as it is on the facebook of Buenos Aires. Everything to be more than grateful.

 How Always waiting to be of service to your would-be servant.

Nanda raja das.

Respected Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I just read this letter from mother Isvari devi dasi: https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/11687/ It is very nice to see how humble Spanish devotee men are, they simply hear Srimad Bhagavatam and are gentle in dealings.

I personally think you should not give up speaking on Mondays. Pre-pandemic days I used to relish hearing you almost daily in English but eventually you started delegating your days. May be Fridays, Spanish devotee men speak three Fridays a month and I can do once a month if you feel it is appropriate. Other than Harsh Prabhu and my family, there are rarely any Non Spanish devotees attending on that day. My only request is let there be English translation on that day. I would like to hear from regular attendees like Abhiram Thakur Prabhu, Lakshmanagraja Prabhu and so on.

Also, now you are doing Hawaii class only once a month, may be we should have Thursday sessions as well?

Your insignificant servant

Srinivasacarya dasa

ASA - AGTSP. Please organize the Friday classes. They seem nice. We seem to be locked into BOEX meetings at the time of class, but like to listen to the recordings later.

Thursday is nice for me to listen to other senior devotees giving classes!

Kirtaniyah sada Harih: FMP Saturday

4 years, 5 months ago by Isvari devi dasi in Calendar Development

Hare Krsna ASA Team,

Please accept my humbles and respectful obeisances.

AGTSP!

May your sweet relationship with Sri Nrismha inspire me more every day.

On this occasion I am writing to you to communicate the following:

Mitravinda dd has posted an invitation on facebook inviting devotees to sing for the Fmp and after gathering a list of applicants it will notify you. She also contacted me to ask me to give in on Saturdays as did Candramukhi dd.

I treasure my service on Saturday very much, I am not good at singing and I know that there must be people who do it better than me, however it is my offering to Srila Prabhupada and Sri Nrsimha.

Since the pandemic There have been many changes, the use of the internet and the computer have increased at home and I can just finish my homework very late and this for now does not allow me from participating every day of the FMP. Sometimes I finish more than 12 which fix my mind more on the Fmp of saturdays.

Explain this to Mitravinda dd and now to you and trying to find a union between the differences of opinion I will share a Saturday with Nanda raja prabhu when he recovers and very likely the 1st Saturday of the month with Gandharva prabhu.

HpS - Is super. I was certainly expecting this. By our spiritual and material nature we are stimulated by different service, so it is natural that we want to do one and others are inclined to share it with others. Is fine.

Thank you very much for helping me in my training, my GM gave me the inspiration and the opportunity to be part of ISKCON and from you I receive the inspiration to embrace the SBG in my heart.

May Sri Nrsimhadeva protect and bless you always.

With appreciation, affection and respect

HpS - Thank you, thank you. But not news of your 'fallible soldiers", children???

Reorganizing Daily SB Classes

Hare Krsna Maharaja and ASA team

PAMHO AGTSP!

All glories to the sankirtana of ASA team!

I hope that all team are very well.

I will always appreciate the example of life that you give us. You remind me of the great general Bhisma always ready to die for Krsna and despite the difficulties that the big donkey causes, you share your realizations with us. I do not know how long Krsna will allow us to be able to associate with you for this I pray to Krsna to be able to appreciate and value you and the teachings that I receive.🙏

HpS - The same to you and more of it!!! What is the news of H. H. Bhakti-bhusana Swami?

Thinking of the time (kala) and thanking the mercy that you have granted to the female devotees of being able to express their achievements of the SBG (tuesday class). I thought it would also be nice if the male devotees had an opportunity to present their achievements with the SBG.

This would allow devotees to associate with you through SBG receiving your comments or feedback. I think this would be a great opportunity for them. For this I ask to you and please forgive my audacity or offense, if you can to give only 1 Monday or 2 so that the Spanish-speaking devotees can expose the SBG.

-I propose Monday because it is the only day that correspond to spanish.

-Fridays correspond to Srinivasacarya p, and he does it very well, shares many teachings and reflections and he comments about SP classes.

This is a humble request that is what you consider best.

I also want to ask your permission so that on Tuesday November 17,SBG class will be bilingual, since apparently it is easier for Madhumanjari dd to speak English more than in Spanish, there would be a translator for her. Do you agree?

HpS - Certainly!! We also think that there is a lot of adjustment we can make to our Daily SB reading. It is a matte of devotees like you ... and me... making suggestions.

Note: SSBBS is it is getting better.

HpS - Aaaah! Our desires are immediately answered.

He already wants to travel but doctors say no, that he has to be resting for at least 1 more year. So now my GM is in the process of agreeing to stay one more year in the Cologne temple, although who knows with the character that he has it is likely that he will travel before or planned. He always preaches in the BG mood, surrender first. He says: without surrender there is no progress.

I suppose that something of the German mentality must be there, he once told me that the concept of more or less, it cost him to understand because he understands something is good or bad.

Sri Nrsimhadeva protect you. (Your Deity is very beautiful)

with appreciation and affection

ys Isvari R dd

HpS-ASA - I think Srinivasa Das has started to organize other speakers on Friday. He had Laksmana agraja Das speak, no? He is the organizer for Friday now, not the designated speaker, no? Of course, it is very good for him to present!! Such nice community of devotees we have.

I was trying to offer one class a day, morning or evening. Maybe to much.

We are doing Mon, Wed, Sat mornings now.

One consideration is that we are trying to coordinate our activities with the Ministry Of Education (MOE) and for that we have been working on the Bh Vai curriculum. It looks now like we will focus ASA SB studies to the Bh Vai Canto Six evaluation to normalize the candidates for Bh Vai in San Jose, California; Houston, Texas and even in South America.

With Gandharva Das and Bali-mardana Das, Hari-lila Das et al we have been moving this forward.

That will influence who is giving classes what days.

More news soon, but I agree with your ideas to have more of our Latin speaking devotees giving classes!!
