Letters to the editor

Oink!   Grank!  WHoop!
We are exhausted. It is 3.34PM.    We have done 11-rounds, two Gayatris, little cleaning, little house work. Lots of fruit (juice) and little Yogurt and Nuts, all the letters in Yahoo.com and Blog, up to three days ago.

Now we want to quit....

[Read about 15-pages. FMP. Called Manis about NIOS tax filings. Has taken a LOT of effort to get it done, and we are not the Secretary nor a Director!]

No Lofty learning.

No, NIOS - India.

No, PPTX for tomorrow morning or evening.

We are basically demons.

Monkey/Piggy - Maybe you are just hungry?

HpS/ Brother Ass - Hmfff!    Yes, a little more Prasadam, but real thing is the mind. We have to merge the mind in transcendence. We are actually getting a headache from this mental work. We need intellectual work now. The mind and senses going into ignorance.
All the letters were super, no?  Jorge's poetry was nice.
This movement goes on by the mercy of its Mothers.

O.K. We'll chant Hare Krsna and see you on the "other side", Mangala arati!!!!!!
 

[We wear Sannyasa dress when we go to the market etc. here, I don't see much reaction from the store manager et al, but if we think about it, what can they say. It must be like seeing a Kangaroo in your Kroeger's market at 7AM in the morning. They must remark about it to their co-employees. Who was that Buddhist Monk. He was buying glue and orange juice, just like and ordinary human being!]

Hare Krishna Maharaja, Pamho, AgtSP.

Yes; to go to Vrindavan.
Maha-bhavi Manager temple; he went to Vrindavan for two weeks.
Murari-caytania is my faithful companion;
He is Lithuanian; He is married, and his son Arjuna.
He is good; chants the holy name. he has 30 years and is a carpenter; his family is in Lithuania.
just us two here.
Yesterday at the party on Sunday; Marga-mana gave the class; Yudistira cook; I clean the bathrooms.
Sanatani and Yudistira are married and two children; kamala-gopi, and Noah, he has another mother.
Marga-mana is married; two children.
His guru fell down.

HpS - Let's hope he gets back up (In a wonderful way!)

Many more details! Gustav is a bhakta with enthusiasm.
ISKCON norway ... the lotus feet of Prabhupada!

-First pure knowledge.
-Come up to the eternal platform.
- .........
jaya Rama ekadasi!

Well, time flew.
the new year is almost here.
Krishna consciousness, such an interesting thing.
we do this because we think it is good; and we will not go to hell.
but the Cowherd Boys do not know "who is God"
umm ...
that's a little strange ...

HpS - Are you sure Krsna is God?   Hmmmmm?    Or would you just love Him because you love Him, even if you might go to hell. Of course, Hell is forgeting Krsna, no?

and what is the name of the mother of Krishna's flute ???
This seems more complicated than I thought.
And what about Putana?

HpS - ASA -  She is the sister of ....(?).
Prabhupada: This movement is for the first class of men.
but that kind of intelligence is that???

HpS - Even if has third or fifth class habits, cow killer, when he hears to Message from the Messenger, Prabhupada, then he is honest with himself, admits his problem. Trys to change, and then P'pada, ISKCON, give him, us, 1st class habits. O.K???
We are looking for 1st class men (at heart) and giving them 1st class habits.

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna
Krishna Krishna
hare hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama
Rama Rama Hare Hare

Maharaj muchas gracias - Thank you very much for your support!

HpS - Thank you very much for your leadership. Sounds like you have a good team there. Get to work! Make it a great team. Do something in the time you have.

AGTSP paoho

How are you?
It is 9.46PM, bed time. We have 15/16 rounds done. We will chant one more and take rest.

So many things happen in one day that it is difficult to remember them all.

Good Full Morning Program at startmeeting.com. Candra-mukhi Devi Dasi led the Kirtan. Maybe it was the connection, but the time she allowed for us to chant the response to the Gurvastakam prayers was a little short. When we lead, we chant the response softly to ourselves and I guess that gives enough time for the other participants. She and many others lead nicely.

Is very important to learn the word-for-word meaning of the Astakam. Then you can chant with meaning, feeling, especially if you chant in front of your Deities.

Then we continued with some more Japa.

Guru-puja and apples, cranberrys and yogurt breakfast offer with Musa.

Went over the letters and got very depressed over some of the projects, but we don't lose enthusiasm. We just realize that things are not going the way we want them to, so we try another way. Later, Bean pancakes and peas porridge for lunch offering.
Nappppppp...   Got up with a lot of enthusiasm. Calendar calls to Peru, locally and Full Evening Program.   I wake up Gaura-Nitai here in our Franklin Ashrama and Musa puts Them to rest at 8.30PM. So, we are getting a rhythm: 'Jaya Radhe, Jaya Krsna, Jaya Vrndavan' bhajan and Kirtan, then KRSNA book, then last Tweet/DTC.

We always remember that Nava-yogindra Swami told us that Prabhupada told him that if you chant 16-enthusiastic rounds, follow the four principles strictly, keep a full morning and evening program, and see that everyone under your authority does the same thing, then you will have no problems. Of course, for us it is a big problem when we can't preach. Having applied this we see that it always works.

Happy life. Vraja life.

O.K. Guess that is all for now.
We opened a Yahoo Group for Solaris Editors to work on the Magazine. Oscar has agreed to write an article. Will you?   The Call for Papers will be out soon.    We discussed with ART and we will change the Spanish, Saturday night symposium to 6PM Nashville time, 7PM Lima time, maybe fix a calendar, like 'First Saturday of the month, Pada-padma, Second Saturday...".

Progess.
Good night.

Hari bolo, Hari bolo!

All the mail to 3-days ago answered.

Was bizaarre.  We would answer one and then there would be another one, because every few minutes they were changing from three days only to 4-days old.

Nice letters.   Nice people.   Thank you.

Our vision is failing, so best to get on the phone now and call, Caitanya, Shyama-sundara, Jiva goswami in Houston, Jasoda in Miami, Lokanatha in San Francisco, M. Matsya (with Musa) about tonight.

Do some Lofty Learning: The crocodile lives in the river.

Scan Dr. Samaresha's, NIOS, books [with MUSA]!

We did our laundry. We do it every three days, small load, fast cycle. Musa offered, Tamil nadu bean pancakes and we offer oatmeal with carrots porridge and 1-1/2 cups milk to Lord Nrsmhadeva today.

Cleaned the house for about 30-minutes. We got the wash area 1/3 clean or clutter, dust and a little bit of stuff splattered and plastered on the walls.

Looked for Krsna on the Youtube and found the old Superman television shows from 1954 that we used to watch. Was very, very interesting to see how these created the consciousness of what is right and wrong, intelligent and unintelligent.

O.K. Hare Krsna!!!

11/02/15  Haribol Guru Maharaja!  Kindly accept all respects and prayers for your spiritual and physical health.  All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

Having checked with the Board, ISKON Sac.re lecture dates- from April to end of the year, all dates available for your visit(s) with exception of Memorial Day weekend and the Sat b 4 Ratha Yatra we don't have a program as many devotees go to San Fran the day b 4.

Dave P. and me will likely visit grandchildren in Colorado and So.Cal sometime during Summer vacation, but no dates set yet.   Anyway, You may stay as long as you like on each trip.    I could suggest dates.  However, since they are all available, that doesn't make much sense. We can help with plane tickets and have Cherrios ready for Monkey and Piggy when they arrive.

Re. your request for photos.  I've requested Prabhu take care of that since he will do it better than me.   I hope they will be sent this week.   Wait 'til you see how beautiful Radha-Gopinatha are. Takes your breath away!!  That's it for now.  ps... (We can do mid week home programs as well.)    yus,    Kalindi Devi Dasi

HpS - ASA -  -  AgtSP.  Paoho.   As far as we can tell, with

our limited forsight. We get to USA about 1st week of April, and then sit down after three months of travel and see if Brother Ass is going to travel anymore at all. If he does we are like committed to like visiting, like Nrsmha-caturday, like 20th May. So, may be we just stumble on forward to the foothhills of the Sierras.

[You can't take IT with you, but you can take Them with you, no?]

Wating for photos!
