Letters to the editor

Hare Krisna Maharaj:

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada,le presento mis mas humildes y respetuosas Reverencias:

Im Baktin Dalia, I know Krisna consiussnes since 2006 ,Im chanting 16 rounds everiday ,Im making service in the temple doing garlands and cleaning temple,now Im in the temple of Cusco my authority now is  the president of the temple p. Raghubarama,

             HpS - AGTSP   paoho.  I think we remember you.  You were working for a diploma en tourism??

I have a question: why its so dificult for me to take decisions? I use to hesitate all the time ,it makes me loose too much energy and time,I dont know if it would be better to leave in the asram or just rent a room next to the temple ,for me its very difficult to leave in the asram but I would like to help there ,my health is not goog now, I can do my normal life but a have back problems it hearts me.So what are the basics steps to take good decitios?.

          AGTSP.   1)  Chant Hare Krsna. Ask Krsna to inspire you.   2) Read Prabhupada's books and follow advise that you find there and 3) consult with even six nice devotees and then follow the advice.

Thank you very much.

B. Dalia.

All glories to SP

All glories to Snkirtana movement

I know i write to you 1 week ago, and i dont like to be a burden, but i wanted to ask you about your Book from russia with Love,

o read it and really like it, but few devotees here in México have it,

Now i got copies from mother athenea's so i spoke with Bh. Brian and Bh. Atenea to ask their help, we want to print 100 ir 200 copies (how many would you like) of your Book as a daksina for your visit so you can sankirtana with them in your temple classes,i can add the sanskrit diacritics to The words, (is there a disciple i can contact for that? Maybe The editor?) and maybe add a note explaining The AEHKMNRS because in spanish The letters change =P. Please give us your blessings for doing this service for your Snkirtana so we can speak with Aravinda Prabhu and start making arrangements.

         HpS - ASA - AGTSP.....   Always very nice to hear from a sincere Christian. 1) It is not our, HpS's, book. It is Diary of Monkey, Tom Brown. After asking him if he wants copies made he said that he wasn't so sure. Maybe if people wanted to make photo copies and share with their friends that would be O.K. but probably should get permission of some authority like Maitreya, Aravinda, Adhoksaja Das or somebody???

Also y things going pretty good here, i Love The subject of planets and all vedic cosmology knowledge; really exhausted, strudying, editing and doing practical services, but really joyfull and without time for spending on Maya =P. It's hard to retreat The tongue in front of The pizzas coming back from sankirtana in saturdays but i must hold on for The good of my japa next day.

         ASA - We save our quota in a can until the next day!

I hope some day i can start following your  footsteps and do it actually with The heart and not just with mind. Thank you very much for your guidance Your trying to servant Bh. Christian

            ASA - Estimations of our glories are rather exaggerated. We control our senses mostly because we have association of devotees and Srila Prabhupada's mercy.   NICE  picture of Sri Madan... !

hare krsna Mahraj,PAMHO,AGTSP
thank you very much for sharing nice ppt. u r asking for suggestion to help u "Help us develop our writing, pptx, stuff so that it is useful"...

u dont need our help but we do, still u r humble enough to engage us by making us think we are helping u. anyway gracias.

There are two words in ppt Mantra & meditation. I think we have to differentiate b/w mantra meditation and other sort of meditation (like Tratak -focus on flame , focusing on third eye etc.,vipasana) in our opinion-- its like- take an example of muddy water in glass--now if make water still- the dirt will sediment-- it will seem water is less muddy.

in our experience when our mind is heavily agitated ---good sleep,  deep breath, or meditation helps to remove agitation.

ceto darpan --is actually removing dirt itself so that we can hear super soul properly as and see things as they are.[ like putting alum in dirty water]

i think we have to differentiate b/w settling down and clearing of dirt.

secondly. Hare krsna mahra mantra consists everything,  should we focus on theological science, name-form- etc. to stress on importance of japa meditation.

thats for now,
dwarf/dwart

            HpS - Thank you so much.     !!       We knew that once we started this tour, no writing!          Only three days more and maybe we can settle down.  ALways will be writing in Hell seems, so we have to do the best we can.   Your poinnts are very good.  We were aiming at professor Campbell and he read the Japa Joe word document in our archives and there it talks a lot about your points.  Is enough?   Next will be conversation with Carl Jung!

Dear Guru Maharaja, please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

(In start of Ratha Yatra,) what is the meaning of coconut arati and breaking of those coconuts?
Are those smashed coconuts Krsna prasadam ?

Thank you!

Your servant Namacarya das

               HpS -  AGTSP   paoho.   I don't know.  Srila Prabhupada doesn't mention it in any book, so it can't be so important.   One story is that it is to extract all the bad ellements away from the Rathayatra and then smash them, so the coconut is poison.  Another is that it is offering to inspire auspiciousness and then the coconut is good.   Hmmm???   If you ge news let us know.

All Glories to Sri Sri Goura-Nitay
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to H.H. Hanumatpresaka Swami

Please accept my most humble obeisance

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja, I hope that your health is acceptable and you are finally getting some rest. My name is Ignacio González, from Valparaíso.

             ASA - AGTSP....  We remember you Ignacio.  Your wife, baby and cat!

Now I´m writing to give you some news about the seminars that we have been arranging for your visit in November to Valparaíso, Chile.

We have being organizing at two universities:

1.       With the Santa Maria University (UTFSM), but we haven´t got any answer from them yet… we will keep trying. Anyway this has been the modus operandi for the last 2 years.

2.       We have confirmed a seminar in the Pontifical Catholic’s university of Valparaiso (PUCV) about “el cantar de cantares”. Will attend 3 theologian teachers from the university, to discuss different aspects of the seminar. Here are the links so you can see their curriculums:

a.       Dr. Kamel Harire https://www.dropbox.com/s/au82iix07diyc2k/Curr%C3%ADculum%20%20Kamel%20Harire.doc

b.      Dr. Gonzalo Ulloa https://www.dropbox.com/s/td09udtnrwcev68/Curr%C3%ADculum%20Gonzalo%20Ulloa.doc

c.       Dr. Juan Daniel Escobar https://www.dropbox.com/s/r34qaxsalvbfjgc/Curriculum%20Vitae%20Juan%20Escobar%20%281%29.doc

All public (60) will be university students of this and other universities. Also will be invited different academicians of the university.

The people of the university ask us for a little summary of the presentation for advertising in the university, and also for the theologian teachers that will discuss with you because they want to prepare themselves for you. In addition, do we have an official name for this presentation?

That´s all for now. Anything that concerns, worries or bothers you please let me know, so I can try to repair the situation.

Your lousy servant
Ignacio

              HpS - AGTSP.   AGAIN.    We are still not sure that we are coming to South America this year.  After we get back to Nashville and settle down for a few months and WRITE then we will know for sure.   But this work on Song of Songs is very, very useful.   The title will be The Song of Songs of Solomon and the Bhakti-rasa-amrta of Srila Rupa Goswami.  Is tha O.K?   You have to keep writing about this and talking to us and see that the work is going on.   It seems 87.332% we will be there as planned and 97.11% that any work we do will be published and even if we don't attend the seminar can go on with great enthusiasm.

hare krsna Maharaj, Pamho, Agtsp
will it be possible for your grace to share ppt/doc of seminars u gave in europe ,india and australia?

           HpS - AGTSP...      I don't really remember any new ones we did.  We just used the Sankhya ones and the LOB ones that we already had.    We did the "Bhaktivedanta Library, Overview of all 12-cantos and overview of 1st two cantos also."   I see the bvlibrary there.  I think they are all there.     We are learning about media.    We are acclaimed as Masters of Power Point by esteemed Directors.    O.K.   Even a Dog has his tail.        So we did japa-joes.pptx and that includes reference to japa-joe.doc.  Hmmm?  How does the combination work?   ?    ?
