Hare Krishna querido Maharaja, 

Pamho, agtSP. 

Gracias por escribir, es siempre bueno recibir sus mensajes. Aprecio su constante preocupación por la situación de nuestro Yatra en Peru.

La Junta Nacional de ISKCON Perú mantiene reuniones quincenales, promoviendo la unión de las Yatras y coordinando la implementación de la Estrategia de Predica promovida por el RGB Latino para toda la región. Hay mucho entusiasmo. Esperamos que otros programas de predica estables de las provincias del pais acepten la invitacion que se les ha hecho para participar. El Centro de Predica de Miraflores ha sido reabierto y tenemos programas regulares alli.

Estos días tenemos la visita de SG Rukmini Krishna Prabhu, de la India, candidato a tomar sannyasa y se quedara 2 semanas en Perú dando varios seminarios y clases en los 3 templos. Como un servicio a los discípulos de los diferentes maestros espirituales que hay en Lima, este sábado el estará dando un seminario para devotos con segunda iniciación (brahmanas) llamado "La importancia del Gayatri Mantra" Sera muy provechoso que sus discípulos asistan a este importante programa para refrescar los principios y valores brahminicos que se comprometieron a seguir cuando recibieron el Gayatri Mantra de Ud.

En cuanto a las denuncias administrativas que se hicieron hace varios meses, el investigador encargado por el RGB todavía esta esperando las evidencias para iniciar una investigación. Creo que este tema está en buenas manos y no debería perturbar el desarrollo espiritual de la comunidad.

Como Ud. sabe, cualquier denuncia debe estar acompañada de pruebas y someterla a un proceso justo antes de llegar a una resolución seria. Llegar a conclusiones arbitrarias y correr rumores ofensivos en contra de devotos es muy dañino para cualquier comunidad.

El dialogo conmigo siempre está abierto para cualquier devoto que tenga dudas, preocupaciones y ganas de hacer aportes constructivos para el desarrollo armónico de nuestro Yatra.

Cuando es necesario, publicamos comunicados oficiales en nuestra pagina de Facebook "ISKCON Peru - Comunicados oficiales del GBC"

Su sirviente, 

Mathuresa dasa

Hare Krishna, dear Maharaja,

Pamho, agt SP.


HpS/ASA - AgtSP! Esteemed Mathuresa Das, our very esteemed friend and GBC Regional Secretary, paoho! ! . ! First let us apologize in taking 8-days to respond to your very important ASA Blog post.

Our old body, donkey, super demanding/productive trip to Richmond and NIOS Nashville festival have occupied so much strength.

Thank you for the Whatsapp words to keep these Blog posts in proportion.



Thank you for writing, it is always good to receive your messages. I appreciate your constant concern for the situation of our Yatra in Peru.


The ISKCON Peru National Board holds biweekly meetings, promoting the union of the Yatras and coordinating the implementation of the Preaching Strategy promoted by the RGB Latino for the entire region.


There is a lot of enthusiasm. We hope that other stable preaching programs in the country's provinces will accept the invitation that has been made to them to participate. The Miraflores Preaching Center has been reopened and we have regular programs there.


These days we have the visit of SG Rukmini Krishna Prabhu, from India, candidate to take sannyasa and will stay 2 weeks in Peru giving various seminars and classes in the 3 temples. As a service to the disciples of the different spiritual masters that exist in Lima, this Saturday he will be giving a seminar for devotees with second initiation (brahmanas) called "The importance of the Gayatri Mantra".


HpS/ASA - 🙂 Super!


Regarding the administrative complaints that were made several months ago, the investigator commissioned by the RGB is still waiting for the evidence to initiate an investigation. I believe that this issue is in good hands and should not disturb the spiritual development of the community.


HpS - In our casual conversations on the topic, we have heard that H. G. Hansarupa Das from New York is the Investigator and that he has talked with H. G. Gita-govinda Das et al, requested their Evidence and that they have sent it.

Very nice.

Very interesting.

🙂


As you know, any complaint must be accompanied by evidence and subject to a fair process before reaching a serious resolution.

Coming to arbitrary conclusions and spreading offensive rumors against devotees is very damaging to any community.


ASA - 👍


The dialogue with me is always open for any devotee who has doubts, worries and the desire to make constructive contributions for the harmonious development of our Yatra.


When necessary, we post official statements on our Facebook page "ISKCON Peru - GBC Official Statements"


His servant,

Mathuresa Dasa


HpS/ASA - Super! Thank you so much for your efforts to post this great information here in our ASA Blog. Thank you.

In conversations with such devotees and Gita-govinda Das, Abhirama thakura Das, Candra-mukhi Devi Dasi and many more, we have never heard any anger toward those with whom they feel administrative conflict.


There has been a humor that we are friends, members of the same Yatra, but there are administrative conflicts that need to be addresses.


For this there is of course a line of command from Head-cook, to Temple President, to National Council, to Regional Secretary, to GBC Secretary, to Regional GBC Committee, to International GBC Executive Committee, to Srila Prabhuapda.


For ASA we require that our individual, direct relationship with Srila Prabhupada is first, second is our friendship with the other members of his society, and third, but a very essential manifestation of his potency, are our institutional relations in ISKCON.


We feel very intensely that Institutional Leaders must join the Yatra from time to time and lead Kirtans, half an hour, more. Then their political position will become transparently obvious to the Brahmanas and saintly devotees.


As Smt. Gangamayi Devi Dasi has been so active in administration, it would be wonderful if we could join her for Kirtan's regularly, no? We need her leadership.


ISKCON seems to be moving into the Third Stage.

Wonderful.


Many more things to discuss with your good self!

Many more.

Hope this Blog can serve a little for peaceful and productive dialogs, with a common cause.

Hare Krishna Maharaja and Devotees;


Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

This coming Saturday and Sunday, we will have two consecutive classes for our regular SB workshop.


The Sunday class will be held to cover for class we are going to miss on Saturday July 8, 2023. On this Saturday we will be reading from CC Adi lila, chapter 14, verses 70 onwards.


Thank you to everyone for valuable association.

La Edad de Oro y sus 10.000 años

2 years, 2 months ago by piyari_mohan_das in Hot Topics

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Please accept my obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada


Today I want to ask you about your understanding regarding the golden age, the 10,000 years of Krishna consciousness in Kali Yuga.


A while ago I read this quote:


The Brahma-vaivarta Purana, an ancient scripture, describes a conversation between Lord Sri Krishna and Ganga Devi that occurred in Dvaraka. Speaking on behalf of all the sacred rivers, Ganga Devi expressed all her fear of the coming of Kali-yuga (the age of rifts) and the imminent departure of the Lord back to the spiritual world. She said, “Oh Lord, we can see that Your pastimes are ending and people are becoming more and more materialistic! You have been very merciful to us, however, after Your departure, all the sinners of Kali-yuga will come to bathe in our waters and we will dry up, taken over by sinful reactions."

  Smiling, Lord Krishna replied, “Be patient…in five thousand years, My mantra-upasaka (worshipper of the holy name) will appear in this world and spread the chanting of My holy name everywhere. Not only in Bharata-varsa (India) but all over the world people will chant Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. Through this chanting, the entire world will become Hari-bhakta, devotee of Lord Hari. And since the devotees of Lord Hari are very pure, all those who come in contact with those devotees will be purified from sinful reactions. Such pure devotees will visit Bharata-varsa and purify it from all sinful reactions by bathing in its holy waters. That period of chanting Hare Krishna in the whole world will last for ten thousand years."


The question arose in me as to who this mantra-upasaka was. Naturally my answer was Lord Caitanya, but it did not exactly agree with Krishna's dating of 5,000 years from the time.


HpS - Don't know the document, translator or context. Hmmm. Yet, think Sivarama Swami reespects this citation. Seems like Lord Caitanya and then it has a section glorifying His Sena pati as doin the rest of the work in India and outside of India.

That matches Srila Prabhupada very well.



I kept researching until I thought of asking a devotee who knows this topic in detail.


Prabhu Hare Krishna from Mexico is a scholar who has thoroughly studied Vedic culture. After watching a video in which he shares the prophecies of the Kali Yuga, I asked him about the text that I quoted at the beginning and he replied:


Regarding the disappearance of Krishna, the most accurate calculation was made by the late friend Dr. Narahari Achar with the best astronomy programs, when the Naksachatra of the star Roghini was on the 8th day of the waning moon of the month of Sravana August. -Sept. Prabhupada in his purports says that it was September. This was in the year 3167 B.C. 


In 1896 the year 5000 was fulfilled after the departure of Krishna. Kali yuga began on February 18, 13102 B.C.


So according to astrological calculations, the mantra-upasaka may be Srila Prabhupada, since he was born in 1896 and with this it would be understood that the golden age began with his birth, only 127 years ago.


What do you think about this reflection?


Thank you very much Gurudeva

my obeisances

your servant

Piyari Mohan das


HpS - We don't really know. Bh. Siddhanta Sarasvati was a GIGANTIC astronomer and from him through Srila Prabhupada we don't have any exact details.

Have you read this text and purport:

Hope this year of the 10,000 is very good year for you to pay your debts to anyone.

Priorities

2 years, 3 months ago by hps in Personal Sadhana Reports, Hot Topics

Hare Krsna. 🐵


Brother ass is getting chronic chest pains. They diminish if we keep our priorities,


  1. Our first priority is Kirtanya sada harih. [Hari Bolo! Hari Bolo]
  2. Our second priority is dictated by the first. Ie. whatever plans, projects, thoughts and perspectives the Holy Names want to keep as Their companions, that is what we accept.


Urgent Report from Lima (hell)

Hare Krsna, Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, AGTU, PAMHO


Sadhana - Gurudeva I was not present all days in FMP due to on April 12th I have a surgery in my eyes the technical name is eye iridotomy (the thing is that I had I inherited from my father the narrow angle in the eyes and if I did not have an operation there could be the possibility of going blind). The surgery was a sucess Hurray Krsna. ¡¡¡¡ Now I can cross that off my list.


ASA - ... and the Black Witch will add two more things to the list. 😟


Jambavan, before submitting his resignation letter of Miraflores asked me to be in charge of pujari. I was very honor with his offer, nevertheless, I told him that I am busy but my desire is always serve the deities so I was going to be part of the pujari team.


I am not going to enter in details here, but then all the situation started to turn unbelievable, the same authority supports the same "lady " to be part of the junta in Miraflores and all her family involved in the service including the treasure hahah (very subtle). Anyway. Jambavan wrote a very complete, concise and chronological explanation about all the things that happened.


Some devotees including me denounce these facts and some authority replies in one paragraph of his letter and I am quoting " this handful of devotees that are pushing these accusations do not have the right to talk about morals and ethics."


I was shocked when I read this. Palika dd, for instance You know her SHE IS A LADY. Anyway Gurudeva, I am pretty disappointed about this whole situation. We as devotees, we were just requesting something fair and sane for ISKCON Peru and then this authority threatens us

I quote again: " in relation to disturbing the peaceful conduct of the affairs of ISKCON and that they are taking the risk of being restricted of participating in ISKCON:


Well, I can say that I have Krsna, SP's ISKCON, You, some really good friends devotees in my heart and I treasure within it, all the unforgettable things that I experienced being a devotee. I have my deities, my japa, gayatri. And that "the authority" can not take those away from me.


HpS - Sometimes there is lack of communication and "authorities" are acting on that. Sometimes they have been captured by The Witch, as we all can be, like Jayatirtha Das' situation and we have to work sincerely to keep our little part of ISKCON sane and work to keep the International Society sane.

One time the big temple in Berkeley, San Francisco, was going into the hands of Kritana ananda Swami when we was leaving ISKCON. President, local GBC, GBC Executive Committee had all given up on it. Six city lots big in very prosperous part of Berkeley, but we decided to do what we could and that rallied everyone and then they said, "thank you, we can do it from here"!


It is very painful and the level of corruption and impudence has already exceeded my tolerance limit


HpS - NoI 3 ... Niscayena. How much tolerance? Unlimited

How much? UNLIMITED.

??? U N L I M I T E D ???? This is Srila Prabhupada's movement and we will struggle with proper, healthy, happy, proportion to do our share to see it a good institution.


On the other hand, Karuna Krsna das called Janapavana das to request that some of the furniture that you left in the ashrama be stored some place else due to he is going to rent the asram. So in my house I have your bed, one altar, one cabinet (this one is locked I do not know if you have valuable things in there), one desk. I am attaching the pictures. So, Gurudeva what do I do with these things?


Patraka das is requesting if he can have the altar for his gorgeous silas and deities.


HpS - ASA --- None of the things "belong" to us. We bought the bunk-bed for the Ashrama. There is another top part. The table, the altar are just part of the room.

The cabinet has some stuff.

LoB bi-lingual hard copies etc.

Some nice stuff.

It can all be distributed to proper persons.

Gandharva Das had the keys?

Is there a combination lock?

I think I have the combination.


Well Gurudeva this is all I have to inform


See you tomorrow in FMP

Your eternal servant

Candramukhi dd


HpS - Thank you for the news. Which is crazier? ISKCON Peru politics or Peru National politics?
