Letters to the editor

HpS - Thank you for the following letter. I also think that Pablo is ready for Hari nama Diksa! Please send his birth date and full name. Then we can fix a date for initiation.

Hare Krisna, querido Gurudeva. Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias, dandavats. Todas las Glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada.

Ante todo espero que se encuentre bien en todos los aspectos.

El motivo de ponerme en contacto con usted es de informarle que, tras haber hablado con Bhakta Pablo, él me ha expresado su deseo de tomar refugio en usted y que así mismo se lo ha manifestado a usted también.

Le he preguntado por los requisitos para poder tomar iniciación:

• Cantar un mínimo de 16 rondas.
• Seguir los 4 principios regulativos:
  • No comer carne, huevo ni pescado.
  • No tomar intoxicantes, como café, té, sustancias estupefacientes o alcohol.
  • No practicar sexo ilícito.
  • No participar en juegos de azar.

Me ha manifestado que desde hace un año los sigue de manera rigurosa.

Actualmente no está realizando ningún servicio en el templo de Madrid, pero si ha pasado unos días en el mismo haciendo servicio. Durante este tiempo su comportamiento ha sido impecable y muy servicial.

Me ha manifestado su voluntad e intención de estar bajo las autoridades del Templo de Madrid.

Por mi parte le he invitado a pasar una temporada en el templo de Madrid, con el fin de que pueda tener asociación con los devotos, se una al proyecto de Madrid, en la medida de sus posibilidades y pueda hacer Sankirtan en Madrid. Va a estudiar la propuesta.

Con toda humildad  y si usted no ve inconveniente, por parte de las autoridades del templo de Madrid en general y mía en particular, como presidente de ACK Madrid, no hay inconveniente alguno en que, cuando usted lo considere oportuno, de iniciación a Bhakta Pablo. Sería un honor contar con un hermano espiritual más en nuestra gran familia de ISKCON.

Muchas gracias por todo.

Su humilde servidor, Dandava Das.

----------- ENGLISH LETTER -----------

Hare Krisna, my Dear  Gurudeva. Please, accept my humble obeisances, dandavats. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.

First I hope you’re fine in all aspects.

I want to contact with you to inform you that I spoke with Bhakta Pablo some days ago, and He said me he was desiring to take shelter in you. He said you this some time ago.

I asked him about the principles to take shelter:

• Chanting mínimum of 16 rounds.
• Following 4 regulative principles:
  • Don’t eat meat , eggs or fish
  • Don’t take intoxicants like coffee, tea, drugs or alcohol.
  • Don’t have illicit sex.
  • Don’t play gambling.

He said me He’s following strictly this points from one year ago.

Now he doesn’t any service in Madrid’s temple, but he was in Goura Purnima doing service and his behavior was impeccable and very helpful.  

He said me that he wants to be under the Madrid’s Temple’s authorities.

I invited him to come in Madrid’s Temple for a season, taking devotees’ association, developing the Madrid’s project with us, if he can, and doing sankirtana in Madrid. He said me that he’ll think about the proposal.

Humbly and if You don’t see any problem, we haven’t inconvenient to You give initiation to Bhakta Pablo, when you want to do it. It would be an honor to have another spiritual brother in our GREAT ISKCON FAMILY.

Thank you very much for all.

Your humble servant, Dandava Das.

Hare Krshna Maharaja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Thanks for your quick answer.
Yes, you are right, my body is really forcing me onto the mental platform. Nowadays i have a half mustard seed taste from the Holy Name and if i'm ill due to the heavy pain i'm unable to concentrate on my japa. But hopefully slowly slowly i will make progress and can tolerate it. This is a good training for me.

Yes i would like to get one TPP-CB book i'm very concerned about it. My address is: flat 5, 38 Clarendon Road M16 8LD Manchester UK
Thank you very much and please, just let me know how much is the postage and i can transfer it.

I got so much from You, Maharaja and i'm so ungrateful. How can i serve You?
I would be happy if i could organize an University or any other preaching program here in England for You next year when you come to Europe.

Thank you very much for your kind association!

Your servant, Sri Radhe dd

- HPS - ASA - AGTSP. Paoho. We can adjust the postage later. Your critical review is worth all that money. If anyone else was in your position they would be an alcoholic. AGTSP!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj,

PAMHO and AGTSP!

We wanted to quickly apologize after re-reading our letter how repititious the information was.  I think we were a bit nervous and felt that all of that extra fluff was necessary...in retrospect it looks like we could have spent a few days on the letter and condensed it.  We will do better next time.

We would also like to order a TPP. Aja would love love the pictures and stories very much.  He has told many people that he wants to be Hanuman when he grows up.  It will be a good addition to our homeschool storytime.  We would be happy to send a donation.

Your aspiring servants,

Kamagayatri dd and Aja

HpS - I think the TPP-CBs would be a little advanced for Aja, but love to send one to you for your review. What address??

All the glories to Sri Guru and Gouranga!!!!

All the glories to Srila Prabhupada!!!!      

All the glories  to you!!!!!
