hAre kRsna, haRe krSna ! AgtSP. Paoho.

Ooof!      Are we every tired. It is 9.32PM. We are in Mathuresha Das' home, hacienda, temple, in Tiqueplaya, Bolivia. Since we left Murfreesboro at 6AM the 31st December with Abbhaya Ji we have taken 8-car trips, 4-plane trips and passed both nights in the airplanes. Several programs with devotees, UNESCO, and ISKCON education groups.
O

ink! Our energy is pretty good!
Our service appears to be of some benefit.

Here in Bolivia it is the National Annual Festival with so, so, many nice devotees.
Krsna seems to be keeping the level of stress in hand so that we don't get sick and die.
              Good internet here.
Will not even look at the Letters to this Blog, not Annual Reports, but you can reach us through Patraka Das in Peru, Nikunja-bihari Das in Argentina and Jagat-guru Das in Chile.
Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!
So wholesome life.
Now we will read the Tattva-sandarbha that we found here and take rest!!!!
Very best of wishes for your Sankirtan.
We hope to hear all about it when we get back to USA!!!!
Kapi Dhvaja on Sunday. <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

Annual Reports 3

10 years, 3 months ago by hps in DTC, Special Category A

Aaaaaaa! All the Annual Reports read and answered!
Incredible.

Gaura kishora Das Babaji only had one disciple.

(Prabhupada had ove a thousand, no?)
It is hard work, Sankirtan, but we feel that it is mercy too. We can contribute a little bit to the Yatra. You, readers, many, are doing much much more sacrifice for Srila Prabhupada than we are.

So we try to improve.

Grateful that we can do something.
O.K. No more reports accepted. Whoop!  Whoop!     If you didn't report them maybe you should return your Japa beads and revert to your secular name.

Oink! Oink! (Unless they repent and are sincere!).

3.56PM  Sun is heading for the horizon. Tomorrrow is New Year's eve day. We leave at 6AM for the air-port. We start the trip tonight so we don't have to begin it on Ekadasi. Now we go do some last minute shopping etc. for the trip.

Thank you. Hari Bolo!

Annual Reports 2

10 years, 3 months ago by hps in DTC, Special Category A

Various fall-downs. Eg. not getting up for Mangala arati. Various. General Idea: Get association. Make a pact with someone else to wake each other up. Make a report in the Blog of your Mangala arati score.
Sangat sanjayate kamah: Our desires and ambitions develop from the company we keep.
We take some Chocolate covered P-nuts sometimes when in stress, traveling. Ramanuja Das asked Prabhupada if Insia pickles were in the mode of goodness, and Srila Prabhupada said, "No, but we take a little". Our Sankirtan life sometimes puts us in the association of passion and ignorance.
So maybe a little pickle.

But... are you addicted? Are you doing it for sense gratification or as a result of your austerity to do Sankirtan? How o find out? Give it up for a month.
So, along with one Pujari we are going to renounce all chocolate for one year.
If we are failure or success we will report next year.

Anybody else have new year's vows! <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />

Reportajes Annual

Estamos casi terminando revisar los Reportajes Annuales. Ano pasado no era posible. Pero estamos aprendiendo constantamente y mejorando nuestra serivico. Buena noticia es que podemos llevar nuestra mejoraciones a la proxima vida!
Muchos siguien todo bien. 35% con problemas con los principios y su Japa. (Claro eso es de los ~55 reportajes de 355 iniciados. Pensamos es peor entres no reportando). Un desafio. Pero de todos maneras hay progreso para casi TODOS. Es lento o es rapido, acercandose a ISKCON hay advanza, eterno.
Un devoto escribiendo de su caida con su esposa y sigue nuestra respuesta por que es problema muy comun y si podemos presentar nuestra respuesta una vez no tenemos que escribir 45-veces. Es un muy buen devoto.

==================

Si, sexo illicto es como entar en un infierno. Aparece muy, muy muy dulce en el momento, pero despues tan muchos problemas.   P A S S I O N  y ignorancia.   Por que?    No se...   Srimad Bhagavatam es una coleccion de caidas. Muchos en sexo illicito?  Esta razon, esta razon. Ajamila una razon. Saubhara Muni, otro. Kunti con el dios de sol otro.....
Yo no podía ayudar porque yo estaba tan estrechamente relacionado con usted. En cierto modo que es natural debido a la separación física. Devotos mayores, miembros de la familia, las buenas personas que viven cercanos deben ser nuestros Gurus local.
Así que yo diría que eso puede ser una gran parte de la problem. Necesita mas "gurús" locales. Si puede hacerlo, el blog es un buen lugar para poner algunas ideas y obtener alguna asociación.
¿Vale?  Nuestras sugernecias son al punto?
Tenemos muchas otras sugerencias, pero tenemos que saber más acerca de su situación antes de que podamos ofrecer lo que podemos pensar es la sugerencia correcta.
Gracias por todo el esfuerzo que hiciste este año y ha hecho usted. Es eterno.

Jaya, Srila Prabhupada!

What does that mean? It means practical engagement for the senses. We pray to him to engage our sense (and get us into the higher fun). We used the tools we have been gradually accumulating over the last few months and took the broken heater apart today and it started working again.

We baked four potatoes for Lord Nrsmha deva's breakfast and made a soup of  three tablespoons of channa dahl, 1 tablespoon butter, lots of carrots and some salt and one apple.

We answered like 12-annual reports, 12-letters and had a medium long talk with Rama giridhari Das about the Ministry work.

We are sitting at NGD house now. It is dark, cold, mild raining, miserable outside. Another typical depressing day in hell. Unless I guess if you are fungus, then it migh be a good day.

Hare Krsna!   If we chant it gives us perspective.

Hare Krsna!!  Smile!  Its all we need.  Hare Krsna, and we are back on track: On to the next sacrifice!
Lord Caitanya will use all of our stupid little efforts to get the Big Result!

 ! A G T S P !     Paoho & bw!!!!        Here Buck the White and Tom the Brown!  How are you?  We got a HEADHACHE, but hot-milk is heating on the stove. We put it on Medium-low and it doesn't burn but gets hot enough for a nice offering.

HOt milk and sugar goes Straight to the Brain.
 

1. We set up the storage rack we purchased, today, and cleared up the "bed room". Incredible results. Now we can see how many BBT and NIOS books we have etc.
 

2. Hawaii class. Was nice. Learn to understand the body from the SB and you have better mystical power than science will give you. Of course we use science gismos, better than the scientists!

3. Offered three baked potatoes, one baked sweet potato, two stalks of celery and about 14 almonds to Lord Nrsmhadeva for his lunch.

4. Still cold here. Lot of little work every day, no?

5. We did two NOI pptxs today. Thinking that it may become the center of our Sankirtan. Guess we upload them after a few days for your review.

We got the knowledge.
   We got the power.
We can make you happy.
  Your life will never sour!

6. We answered mail, VP offerings, and read and responded to all the Annual Reports up to one week ago. There are about 55 total. Interesting. Out of 355 initiations. About the same for Prabhupada's disciples.
Tommorrow we do up to four days ago and then finish them all by 31st December.

7. Trying to contact Rama-giridhari for a meeting. Lot of MOE stuff to set.

8. O.K. We read Jung and go to NGD/Radha Natabara's home for Friday Night Ecstacy!

May your Sankirtan reach the Pope, Barrack Obama, Putin, the Kings of Islam etc. etc.
