Letters to the editor

Querido Guru Maharaj,

Acabo de terminar de leer el Kapi Dhvaja de este mes. Y no sé si lo he hecho antes, creo que sí, pero de todas formas le reitero nuestra gratitud por todo el esfuerzo que usted hace para mantenter esta relación con todos nosotros sus bienquerientes a través del Kapi Dhvaja.

En general, la asociación con usted por internet es muy estimulante para llevar nuestra vida espiritual y es  un regalo que llevaremos siempre en nuestro corazón y por el cual, repito, estamos muy pero muy agradecidos.

Estamos afinando los detalles para aprovechar y optimizar su estadía acá en Chile en octubre-noviembre próximos.

Ahora está Vaiyasaki prabhu en Santiago y estamos promocionando sus conciertos.

Mis reverencias
Hare Krsna
Jagad Guru das,  Stgo, CL

              HpS - ASA -   Ha!     Ha!    Jaaa!         TlgaSP!           Muy interesante carte!   Mooo  Chas Gracias!!            Por que?   Por que tenemos que pensar no solamante en el contenido, tambien     en        QUIEN es el autor.

              El Autor Es Un Periodista Trabajador Professional, no???

Entonces, como puede ser un periodista????         Por apreciar periodicos.       Entonces vale mucho sus comentarios, pero tambien en parte es por que Vd es un leyente professional.    Entonces, como podemos mejor nuestra comunicacion, Senor Periodista, relacionar mejor con gente co mu mu mun?  ?           ?   [Monitos y Puerquitos...]

          Claro la cosa mas importante es tener mas decir, no!!?              Y eso esta basado en experimentar mas.  Y eso es basado en esoforzando realizar mas y mas austeridades en el servicio de Srila Prabhupada...  y central es distirbuir sus libros!!!!!!!!         Que el gobierno de CL   toma   Upadesamrta como un texto basico para todos las escuela en Chile!    Jaya!          Shows de television basada en NOI...

                 Que piens, Senor Jadad-guru Das??????   Et al?????

Hare Krsna Hanumat Presaka Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto your lotus feet,

             HpS - ASA - AGTSP......   So nice to hear about the life of Reilly!  We have decided that HpS has Apple Blossom feet, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada, although he deserves the feet of a digusting pig.

All glory to Srila Prabhupada,

I'm still here in Mayapur Maharaja, It's very beautiful and now the rainy season is coming in. We've been working to take care of some Puppies, Calf + Mother cow that my mother adopted from villages + streets. I've been learning some Bangla myself to help communicate with Dham Residents here (learning a new language is so interesting..) I feel I've well overstayed my visit to the sacred Dham, but I can't argue against the will of my parents, :)

I've been trying to get those 16-4 up and going consistently. I think again & again about your instructions every day Maharaja, and recently I've been thinking very heavily about things in K-con… And after a long time of thought; I'm absolutely sure I would very kindly like to lay down a request to your lotus feet [ASA - pies de manzana]. In the beginning when I first came to ISKCON 3 years ago you were the most authentic spiritual master I had ever met in my lifetime, and I feel that after these years of thinking about who I would perhaps take Diksa from one day in ISKCON, what Maharaja & Spiritual Master, all I can remember is your Instructions & voice. You know most about me & my abominable mistakes [ASA - Ravana and Hiranyakasipu were worse!] and I sadly don't know whats really good for myself or others. I've been so offensive towards you many times in speech + mind [Goodness, we didn't notice that!] -- I'm honestly nothing but a Tamasic, condemned, unskilled Sudra [We think it would have to be a "Tamasic, condemned, unskilled Brahmana", with real potential, and really you are not all that Tamasic, condemned or even unskilled. It just seems, conditioned, by your situation, Karma, but can make progress if you understand the crazy birth you have taken, no?], with a selfish deranged mind that always wants to criticize all people + K-CON. I have nothing to really offer to you or SP in my lifetime. SP changed my life.. It's something still so difficult for me to accept, everyday I think that anybody else would do so much more with it than the most undeserving me/I ever will in my lifetime for krsna. Yet I find it so painful losing your association.

           HpS - ASA - Losing "our association"???  This is not associating, chating???

Maharaja, I would very humbly like to request that I may take Harinama-Diksa from your lotus-feet? [Apple blossom our feet.  We only offer Diksa to those who at least also take shelter of the lotus feet or the Founder Acharya of ISKCON]. I would like to follow a sacrifice of doing my full 16-4 everyday for another full year to please you.. I can't forget your instructions for even a single day & would like to accept you as my beloved Gurudeva.

Your fallen servant,
Bhakta Reilly (Reilly M. Grindle)

           HpS - ASA = Honestly. We have been abusing Srila Prabhupada's mercy probably more than you have been abusing any we have offered for like 40-years, but he has not given up on us or so many other devotees.    Maybe 99.997% of any good you see in us is his effort.

  Yes, we have done something, are doing something!   We will do more. We get strength from your sincerity.

     So, inch-by-inch, its always a cinch.     We won't watch any Sherlock Holmes videos and you'll follow the four principles and chant 16 rounds/day until the 4th of July.   O.K?    Deal?!!!!              Gonna be tough in those moments of exhaustion... but we will think of our promise to each other.   Maybe some of our readers will also take "Independence Day Vows", 4th of July Day Vows and send them here also!!!
    Piggy asks if there are any street pigs in Mayapura and where do you life there?

AGTSrila Prabhupada.

Jaya Gouranga!.

Its always a nice feeling to write to you HPS. I am David, From Argentina. As you told me in response of my previous letter I am taking care succesfuly of Srimati Tulasi Devi at home using artificial source of light and warm and following my initial level sadhana: reading Sastras daily basis and chanting some rounds, going to mandire for Krsna-Katha and Kirtan.

I am very entusiastic of your arriving to Buenos Aires at November 2013. I really want to see you again.

Hari bolo,
Dave.

               HpS - AGTSP.     We are trying to get a stable psycho physical arrangement so we can focus on our personal Sankirtana. Without that we don't think there is much use in traveling so much.   What is the value of life unless we can do something in Srila Prabhupada's Sankirtan!   So, we see lot of possibility of going to Latin America in October, but we don't know what is going to happen unless we can get some strong result in our Sankirtana.           We are trying to do a power-point show from the Japa Joe notes that are in the www.jayarama.us archives. So far there has been a little result.    ...   O.K?   What do you think?

Hare krsna

Agtsp

All glories to you guru dev.

Pamho _______'o___     Now Vrsabhanu-nandini and i stay for 10 day aprox in Córdoba, visiting family and organize some programs with devotees and new people héroe. So much to do. Sankirtan yajña ki jay.

We have the Will to serve you and srila prabhupada movement with the skill and knoledge that Krsna give to us. So we can do some movies and if you and NIOS have some idea we can be a tool for that.

We have some proyect but need moré time and develpment, the idea is to adapt the life of Prahlad in to the modern time. In the midle of the family and his businessman father, etc.

Another more, about the meditation base on the japa joe script.

             HpS - ASA -  AGTSP....   paoho.   Thank you so much for your letter.  We have started a Power Point show based upon the japa-joe notes. Of course, they are in the www.jayarama.us archives.   We will try to post the power point show by the next Kapi Dhvaja.

Radha krsna movie? Ramananda ray? Thank you gurú dev and vaisnavas for Your mercy and example Your servent Ambarisa m das _______'o__

               HpS - ASA -  We don't have any immediate idea. Of course, illustrating ideas from the BG and SB is good.   First question would be how can these movies help to distribute Srimad Bhagavatam to a certain section of society?  To whom are you destined to preach?

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

                     HpS - ASA -  Chyrsanthamum

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

    Guru Dev, We have around 79 photographs of ISKCON NVCC, Pune.
    Please advise, how could we share with you.
     Thank you, Guru Dev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

                  HpS - ASA ---  Jaya!   Attach a few of the most important with your explanations to your next letter to the Blog!!   Thank you...

Hare krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisnaces, all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

First of all my sincere thanks for the reply/guidance and it helped me a lot to understand about my confusion (a bit about goal of the life, these quota, Karma etc) and able to know a bit the difference of a "true feeling" and a feeling like feeling (through my intelligence).

What I understood, is with this conditioned body/life, a "true feelings" comes in glimpse and to make it longer, lot of endeavor on ones part and the mercy of Krishna, Spiritual master and other devotees.

The more I read and all are point to Krishna (what else is there other than the LORD) and to really to know krishna, there is nothing other than "serving the lord"

Please help me to correct my self and to be worthy to serve the LORD.

Your humble servant

-Srinivasa (from Richmond)

                HpS - Jaya!    AGTSP.   Paoho.  We are back in USA as you may see in the DTCs. Your understanding seems very nice.   Another way to look at it is that the sun is shinning from the left.  We are following a path through the woods. Sometimes it comes to a little peak and we can see the mountain where we are headed in the distance, so we have enough indicators to keep on the path and we can see that we are getting closer.  As we get closer the view of the mountain is more often and with more detail.   Jaya! Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!!          See you very soon!            Send us some news of your regular work, Karma yoga.
