    will be 3 Maharaj during your visit.)

    we will have another meeting on January 27, 2017 then picture will be clear.

    while, we have already conveyed your message about ISKCON Education.
    ( Daivi Varna Ashrama Education as Pre, Primary, Secondary and University education, Philosophy of Education,
      Sastric Education all for the purpose of Sankirtan. Several presentations in the morning,
      workshops in the after noon and cultural presentations in the evening. Light of the Bhagavata Symposium,
      Pschology and the Sacred )

    Once we have a clear picture of your events, then update you.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - Very nice. We can hear from and speak to other Sannyasis.

HPS: Do you know one devotee, Hrvoje Cargonja, I forgot his initiated name, he is PhD, Assitant professor in University of Zagreb, his Mobile is +385 91 547 o863. He is very nice, friendly. If you can please contact him and find out about his projects.

I do not know him, will contact him. Do you have any specific what should I inquire?

HPS:We are planning on making a strong contribution to the Sannyasi Guru GBC Sanga in Mayapura the 10-13th of February. Is there a collection of instuctions (guess mostly letters) that Prabhupada gave on the topic, especially the instruction that the GBC position could be for life?

I am not aware of such a collection, not even a collection of general instructions to and about GBC. I could try going through Vedabase Folio and look for such topic, but am not sure how long that would take. Do you want me to do that?

Your servant Namacarya das

HpS - Just introduce yourself. I mentioned your good self to him and he said he would try to contact you. I think his preaching work might interest you.

I will ask Prahladananda Swami about the collection.

Querido Maharaja ,  por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias . Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada .

HpS - ASA --- Estimada MKDD, it is very nice to hear from you. We did not read the above part of the letter which is "..." because we are all Brahmacaris here and BG 3.16.1-3 Srila Prabhupada says, "He [a Sannyasi] is even forbidden to talk with a woman in a secluded place." So we have to correspond with ladies in the company of their fathers, husbands, or grown up brothers or sons. If that's O.K. then sen another letter but include the e-mail address of someone who can join us in the conversation.

Thank you!!

                   HARE KRSNA GURUDEVA,

                   PAOHO,AGTSP!!

                   WE SENT YOU A PPT VYA SKYPE, IT WAS TO HEAVY TO GO THROUGH HERE...

                   HAPPY WHILE ASPIRING TO BECOME YOUR DISCIPLES.

                    BHADRA VARDHANA DAS & SANANDA DEVI DASI

HpS - Not just busy, very limited in Skype access, can't yet open your PPTX! Can't you reduce the size?

Dear Guru Maharaja, please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

These days we are doing the renovation of the flat we live in. Specifically, the temple/living room and the hall. For that we have finances. The house is 45 years old and it needs fixing. There was mold on the walls. Air was going through the windows, which is nice in the summer but not in the winter. The restoration will include the windows, walls, floor, electric wiring. For furniture we do not have finances right now.

HpS - ASA -- Very nice! If you die soon it will mean good income for you descendents when you sell it also!

Doing all that work and living and working in the same place takes a lot of energy and good organization, cleaning, etc.

Reading Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakur's commentary on Bhagavad-gita.

ASA - Jaya!! Please share what you read... !

One point is that BG we have to interpret, only rightly so. For example, Krsna says to Arjuna”Fight”. This does not mean that I should go to war and kill people around. It means, do your duty, according to your nature, by following Krsna's plan (which is a good plan for everyone) and [hopefully] for His satisfaction.

I'm in the process of digesting our last exchange.

Next two weekends will spend with devotees doing bhajans.

Health challenge – for years dealing with lack of energy. Few months ago diagnosed with high lactose intolerance. Was doing Bioresonance therapy and it looks the intolerance is normalized. Still, have to take care of intake of milk products. Also, the sciatic pain and general back pain are there. When standing or walking 2 to 4 hours, the spine pain is so strong that I almost cannot think. Trying to do yoga asanas to mitigate, as it looks there are no other things that are there to rejuvenate the “dwindling machine”.

HpS - Do you have Iyengar Yoga studio where you live?

Catching up with your classes on e-sanga and Saturday StartMeetings.

Your servant Namacarya das

HpS - Thank you very, very much for you association.  We are planning on making a strong contribution to the Sannyasi Guru GBC Sanga in Mayapura the 10-13th of February. Is there a collection of instuctions (guess mostly letters) that Prabhupada gave on the topic, especially the instruction that the GBC position could be for life?

dandava.das@...

Who is Yasodananda Swami?

HpS - ASA ---   Ahhh!   Yadunandana Swami, no Yasodananda Swami.    We had the Dandava Das address and this time it went through with no bounce.

Can you also update the guru-tattva file:
Dadhisara Devi Dasi (Diana Karla Gonzalez Ramirez) 2016 Dec 25 (1994 November 4)?

Thank you. May you have many Krsna conscious hotels, if you want.
