Thank you very much!

Kindly find attached the Student Handbook along with another guide.

Would you be able to take one more Unit, if it is available?

Ys, Rnd.

HpS - So, we are planning for February next year. That is 4-months from now and at 72-yers old I cannot promise that I won't be dead or senile demented, but otherwise we will do it.

  1. I see your manual. It is 121-pages? Will take some time to review.
  2. I see Gauranga-darshana Das, Vidya-pitha Manual. We have been doing some close work with them. Is good tool.
  3. We can log on on ZOOM but as of now we cannot do the Voice Over Internet (VOI). We just do the screen over internet and the voice by telephone call in. It burns too much Data otherwise. So.... do you have a Zoom account that has a USA number that we can call? That is essential.
  4. We could do another session. That would seem to be our limit. Two sessions, and probably all that anyone could tolerate of us.
  5. Can our Anjana Suta Academy students join as observers?

Hare Krsna! May all the Mayapura Cobras come to your Kirtans and show their hoods, but not bite.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP paoho. It is so, so, so, so..... nice to hear from you. It seems possible. this is 2021, no?

PUC Event finally will start tomorrow 7th October - Updates and Suggestions to content

Replying to https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/11602/

.Hare Krishna.

Dear Guru Maharaja, All Glories to Srila Prabhupada, Please accept my humble obeisances unto you,

The event will start tomorrow 7th October Wednesday.

Your understanding is very well Gurudev. Indeed, your participation in this PUC (´P` because "Pontificia", of the Pope) event called "Coloquio Internacional de Naturaleza y Sacralidad" (International Colloquium on Nature and Sacred) Program is 21st October - 19:45 hrs. Chilean Time ( www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/chile/santiago is a useful and bonafide webpage to convert the time ).

Tom Brown - ASA -- Well, actually, it is not correct. We have 6.45PM Nashville time on our Calendar. Which is 18.45 Nashville, which is 20.45 Santiago. Bllllllsfftttttp! 😬

.... So it is 5.45PM - 6.05PM Nashville time. 🙂

The time frame is just 20 minutes (TED Talk-style - sāndra-ātmā — "whose nature is very condensed")

The content of the HPS presentation

I didn't get that you were asking me about your proposal. I think that the idea is very accurate to the public who will attend.

In fact, the BG is known already by this audience so, hear this technical approach from the BG, is very authoritative and advanced way to start for a swami who will speak about this book.

The quotations from Srimad Bhagavatam are perfect because are a good example of how this Bhagavata culture see the ideal situation of the world and how it was, actually.

In one moment I thought is not too much but then I realized that the time frame is a very short, so now, on contrary, I think that is a very focused message and that's good.


Humble suggestions

In my humble opinion, a wink [nod] or a little reference to some of the points in common between Bhagavata culture and Mapuche culture and perspective - or at least, Inca culture- about "nature and the sacred" would be unexpected but very well received if you make it.

TB - The first problem is that we have no firm idea whatsoever about Mapuche culture! What is it? Do they worship The Great One who Eats Dried Banana-chips on Ekadasi? Why is it important to the audience? Are they Mapuche? Or are they afraid of Maphuche??? Help!

For that, I recommended already check this extract of the interview to the researcher and our friend's mentor, Gastón Soublette speaking about the deep values of the mapuche culture.

TB - Awww!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N27LAd9 06yM

TB - Awk! GrONk... BlooK .,., & Black! The link does not work! 😭

Tried it five times. Just defaults to general Youtube.com and President Trump kissing..... babies... Searched "Gastón Soublette" and got over a dozen interviews of a very wise old man with a very large white beard! Same for you? Please send us the correct link!

Other way to get some insights is the presentations of the TABLE 2 - entitled "NATURALEZA Y SACRALIDAD: TRADICIONES INDÍGENAS" - 14 th October, 17:30 hrs.

TB - Seems too late for the dull brains of Brother Ass etc. and probably some funny foreign language, and probably not focused enough for our efforts. We're pretty stoopid here.

The three presentations of that day will be in Spanish, but Carlos Rold is ready to make a good three summaries of each for you, to facilitate you can get some good insights to quote or re-think something to relate to your own presentation.

TB - O.K. Very good Not more than 2,000 words and then we can ask questions! We will sound very intelligent!!

Again, this is not requested at all, I just think that could be something very unexpected and it let a "buena sensación" about vaisnava wisdom and our desire to build stronger bridges.

TB - Really, our desire to participate in these programs is first to listen and THEN to speak!!! God is too big for one religion, society, planet!

On the other hand, to mention about vegetarianism it could add useful new ideas to whose people who ignore that the concept of animals rights actually is coming from India historically, and that perspective is.

TB - I think it is indicated in the description of Yudhisthira Raja! We will look for it.

Finally, dear guru maharaja, remember our proposal to design your final presentation. 2 DAYS before the event is enough for us because they requested one day before the day.

Maybe three days before, 18th October, if you are interested in to show the "premiere" to the ASA crew.

TB - By 15th October. Maybe we make it our presentation for Sunday with ISKCON Alto Peru. https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/11650/


Book Distribution

Regarding your question, I think that Light of the Bhagavata is not available physically, I mean, I have some but just a few physical, 3 or 4 I think.

BBT Spanish Books are not yet for Amazon Kindle officially. Only Bhagavad Gita.

Science of Self Realization or the Spanish BBT book "Ecología y Supervivencia" 80 pages I think it would be good. The SSR is already in vedabase.com in spanish.

But one way that I think that would be interesting is put a link (with bit.ly tech to know then how many people enter in it in the moment, and afterwards) where the people could download an extract (for example SB 1.10-4-6) in pdf/epub formats or event the entire Light of Bhagavata or Science of Self Realization in spanish (in a unoficcial way, I can prepare it). What do you think about it?

TB - The vedabase.io link to BG 7.4 and SB 1.10.4+ could be included. They can can communicate with you all, no? Then you can filter the interest and we can expand our citations and send books accordingly? We could also include a bibliography, "further reading'!

Anyway, I think that we should focus in just one or two book.

TB - 💪

Good leader of many Apes!

The event opening tomorrow 7th October

Finally, the Opening Event is tomorrow 17:00 hrs. Chilean Time, and our friends and organizers, Claudia Lira and Elvira Ríos, will present the aims of this event, so, it would be very nice if you can join. This will be a few minutes anyway. So, if you can join, the "coordinates" are here but also everyone can join registering themselves here:

TB - 5PM Santiago, 3PM Nashville. Ententaremos.

Any question, please Gurudev just ask I'm your servant.

TB - We just asked HpS, and he asked Gurudeva, and HpS said that as far as he can understand Gurudeva, Srila Prabhupada, asks that you be a good boy and chant "Hare Krsna". Nice service!! AGTSP!

Personally we want to say that is nice working with you, and we can see that we ALL have a lot more work to do to be super professional devotees but... https://vedabase.io/es/library/sb/9/10/20/ !
