Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna Respected Guru Maharaj,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

HpS - ASA  -  AGTSP! Paoho.  I think we have potatoe - apple feet but we are pushing to have lotus feet so we can help your Master in His games.

    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Gurudev, you had asked about my parents in our previous communication.
    You had asked, like "Do they live in the same town as you? Do you visit them often?
    Do they have a bona-fide guru?"
   
    No, we are not living in the same town. My parents are not living with me in Pune.
    They are living in Raipur (Capital of Chhattisgarh) with my younger bother.
    I live with my 3rd brother in Pune.

    I am able to meet with my parents, once in a year for 8-10 days. But we talk almost
    every day. i am elder son of my family so have many responsibility for them.
    Yes, off-course for Krsna also. Guru, Radha-Krsna on Top priority, always.

    No, they don't have a bona-fide guru. But my mother is a devotee for many years.
    She chant 20-25 rounds every day.

    Thank you so much for BG Guide.

    Gurudev, once again, .....about 2nd Initiation.
    To get the Bh.Sastri certificate is difficult for me, because there is no Bhakti-Sastri course
    in Pune, now a days. So we will talk to my both the Shika Gurus about Bh.Sastri and
    approval letter by President.

    I need to talk with Pune Shiksa Guru. Most probably, will talk on this weekend.
    Then will discuss the same with Vrandavana Shiksa Guru, then will update you

    Gurudev, Probably next year, you would like to visit ISKCON Pune. if possible, please share
    any proximate date and days....will arrange accordingly and schedule lectures accordingly.

HpS - If you are asking it would be difficult not to come. Also Baroda.

    Gurudev, i have also written a mail to you, today, to seek your advise.So marked this letter
    as urgent.

HpS - Yes, I anwered that it seems like friendly topic so please send it here also, no? Then five more people can benefit from our talks. I was trying to answer 400-500 letters a month before we started this Blog. Now it is down to a manageable level and many, many people tell me they read the posts. Sri Krsna Katha, Ki Jai.

    Thank you, Guru Dev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - ASA - Thank you. Very nice to hear about your family. Third brother is devotee? Father still works?

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

 I want to apologize for not keeping you more informed, I was having trouble to work with the blog but now finally I have figured out how to use it. ( Still having trouble, I have been trying to sent this letter for the past 3 days)... .

            ! ! !!!   !

Answering letter, Reference to this letter - http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/4226 I am sad, you are not coming Vrndavana this year. Probably, we have to take my parents in Vrndavana, this year in the month of Krartik. we will eagerly wait for your writ at Kapi-Dhvaja about your book.

      ASA - Our respects to your parents! They have guided such a nice devotee as yourself to spiritual enlightenment. Do they live in the same town as you? Do you visit them often? Do they have a bona-fide guru?

Guru Dev, Thank you so much for answers of my questions. we will surely set the priority day-wise for a new location, when we travel. Guru Dev, you have asked, HpS- "Are you using some Study Guide for the BG study???" Yes, we are following instruction from Bhakti-Shastri lectures from Vrndavana. I got few lectures through my Vrndavana Shiksa Guru and one reference book by H G Jita-mitra Das, ISKCON, Delhi.Also we have collected comments on BG by Srila Vishwanath chakravarti Thakur and Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur. Please advise, if need to correct any thing, or need to add any thing, also please share if you have any study Guide for BG. I am very much ardent for BG. Gurudev, .....about 2nd Initiation. To get the Bh.Sastri certificate is difficult for me, because there is no Bhakti-Sastri course in Pune, now a days. So we will talk to my both the Shika Gurus about Bh.Sastri and and approval letter by President, then will update you. Pune Shiksa Guru went for Jaganatha - Puri, so once he comes back will discuss with him. then will discuss the same with my Vrandavana Shiksa Guru. Gurudev, When you want to visit ISKCON Pune, this year or next year? and how many days you want to stay here.You can visit both the ISKCON Pune temple and give lecture also. We will prepare accordingly. you also asked, HpS - What kind of preaching are you able to do at work? we normally like to discuss about BG at office with Senior people and any one else, who is eager about BG. Please guide. One more thing, my Vrndavana Shiksa Guru has a schedule for me for next year for school preaching in Chhattisgarh state, He will take me with him for a trip, Where i have to preach school boys & girls. So he asked me to be ready with topics. ........So preparing the BG and other topics also. Gurudev, we want to spend minimum one year time in your service. Please advise. Thank you, Guru Dev. your fallen servant, Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

          HpS - ASA - Your BhSastri materials seem fine. We did a BG Study Guide. I just uploaded it to the ASA Archives. It is like tpp.docx. Is it there. It is maybe seven years old??? It is simple.

5.32 AM - Saturday. We have to drive to NGD's home to use the internet connection. This one is not strong enough for our BhVai classes.

Thank you!!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Querido Gurudeva

Por favor acepte mis más humildes y respetuosas reverencias

Aquí Bhakta Rodrigo Hernández de Santiago de Chile.

Espero que se encuentre muy bien. Mil disculpas por no escribir antes.

Escribo ahora por lo siguiente:

Prabhu Oscar Navarro es hermano de Paundra das. Oscar es psicólogo y fue el contacto con el profesor Humberto Maturana para el encuentro con usted. Prabhu Oscar es aspirante a discípulo de Radhanath Swami.

Prabhu está armando un equipo de trabajo porque tienes varias buenas ideas de prédica. Uno de los proyectos importantes es una Editorial: Gouranga Seva Ediciones.

Prabhu Oscar quisiera pedir permiso a usted para hacer una edición profesional y muy bella del libro de poemas de Usted: “Sonidos del corazón”.

¿Usted nos autoriza a hacer una nueva edición? La idea es hacer algo  mucho mejor que la anterior que hicimos en Chile, honestamente esa vez yo no quedé contento con la edición del libro.

También quisiera preguntar ¿cuándo usted piensa visitar Chile de nuevo? Si es este 2014 tal vez podemos organizar conferencia en Biblioteca Nacional y tal vez una conferencia en el Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes.

Espero la próxima semana enviar una carta personal.

Por favor reciba nuestras reverencias!

Su aspirante a discípulo,Bhakta Rodrigo Hernández Piceros

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

ASA - HpS - Please use translate.google! Thank you for your letter. They make us very happy. This world is very lonely without news from you and the other Mahatmas in Chile. We would like to call a taxi now. Put a few things in our bag and go to the airport and go to Santiago, Valpariso, Dog Pianist, everyone!!
We feel like Krsna in Mathura writing to Radharani. Ha! Ha! Ha!

I think Krsna will take us to South America January, February, March, April next year.

So good to hear about Oscar. We are trying to advance th work with Carl Jung but first is the Bhakti vaibhava and Education in ISKCON work. We will finish that soon then we can turn to Jung with full enthusiasm.

In terms of the poems, why not do this. The current Tpp-CB is dedicated to our good friend Lokanatha Das. Guess it will go until July 4th. Then the next one can be dedicated to you all. You can select poems from that and other work. If they have any value it is because Lord Caitanya's mercy goes to the most fallen first.

Please write us some news about yourself in general. Your life is an example for many others and we can discuss the general points here!

How is the Arjuna Das?

See you soon.

HpS - ASA
