Dear Guru Maharaja, PAMHO AGTSP.

While waiting to receive the exam paper for BhVai Semester4, I checked if there are any new recodings on WebEx. There is file of Japa from today which goes for 34 minutes. I downloaded it and listened to it and then at the end saw that you wrote in chat "recording for Namacarya das" :-)
Thank you!

Your servant Namacarya das

          HpS -  AGTSP   paoho.   I don't know what that was.  Hmmm.  So nice to get your associacion.   We will be in Spain in like just three weeks!  Hare   Krsna...................

Agt Srila Prabhupada!  
Agt NiTay Gauranga!!!
Agta Devoties!
Pamho.
Hare Krsna Maharaja!, a Sus pies.
Soy Bhakta Pablo del Parikrama, de España. Espero que  todo le vaya super bien en todos los aspectos.
 
Muchas gracias por Sus cartas.
 
Yo, solo gracias a Krsna continuo con el Sadhana, y a Su misericordia Maharaja. Leo tantas cosas buenas de Sus discipulos que solo me pregunto que voy a conseguir yo en esta vida?, espero que Krsna por alguna razon que yo no comprenderia quiera algun dia bendecirme con Su presencia purificando mis sentidos.
 
Tengo muchos deseos que venga a España y podamos pasar momentos juntos. Espero poder servirlo. 
 
Estoy planificar un pequeño Parikrama personal cuando este en Nueva Vrajamandal, con la Guia del Vrajamanadala Parikrama, tengo todos los mapas en laminas del Babaji Svarupa das Mahajara de Radha-Kunda sobre Vrajamandala entero, ademas de los libros Guias del Parikrama Vrndavana, Radha Kunda y Govardhana.
 
Tal vez podriamos organizar salidas al Goshala a limpiar la ropa en cubos alli , o al rio y praderas, y de paso saludas la vacas o darles arroz hervido. Asi podriamos contar historias de diferentes dias del Parikrama y Sus paradas.
 
Yo se poco de esas Historias, ¿ tal vez Ustedes tendrian algun rato al dia para poder saborear su asociacion en el campo, al sol, de Parikrama. Citando al NOI ??
 
Sobre las Matajis, queria especificar que estoy abierto a relacionarme formalmente con Matajis, cuando se reunan las condiciones adecuadas. Para poder tener mas claro mi manera de relacionarme ahora con las Matajis,  y,  por ahora no estoy en esa situacion Maharaja. Aun tengo muchas cosas que arreglar.
 
Lo que si deseo es poder ayudarle como una hormiga cuando este en España, le pido a los Devotos que asi pueda ser posible.
 
-Donde te han dicho eso?,- dijo uno.
-Lo vi con mis propios ojos!,- grito el otro.
-Alguna clase de encantamiento estaria sobre ti si viste eso!!!-
-Yo tampoco me lo explico.- replico. Pero asi es, los tontos tambien ven. Estamos perdidos. Rindamonos al misericordioso Nityananda, que libero a nuestros hermanos Jagai y Maday,¿ por que no a Sus hermanos pequeños?. Gritemos fuertemente el Santo Nombre cerca de Haridas Thakura, porque si El esta contento, Nityananda Personalmente pedira nuestra audiencia.
-Y como hacemos eso Hermano¿? pregunto sabiamente el mas joven de los dos.
-Tulasi personalmente cuida de Haridas Thakura para que no se resequen Sus pulmones, emanando un dulce aroma a Bhakti y Mukti que vaporizado por las fosas nasales expandidas por el Yoga del Hari-Nama, hacen indestructible el prana del cuerpo, fusionandola con el Alma, es una bendicion de Tulasi Seva. Asi se salvo de los latigazos. 
-Pero nosotros como podremos obtener esa Misericordia??, somos unos egoistas calculadores, y oportunistas de los remordimientos obtenidos por meritos propios.
-De tantos dias en los Radha-Gopala Mandir intentando robar, siempre escuche lo mismo "Obten la misericordia de una Gran Persona a traves de Sus instrucciones y no pares jamas, bajo ningun concepto, todo lo demas te recordara a una reunion de cuervos acompañados por la Muerte "
 
A Sus pies, perdone mis ofensas.  
Bhakta Pablo del Parikrama.
HARE KRSNA.
           ASA- Jaya!   TlgaSP.  Pfanrh.   Podemos entender 90%  primero parte y 70%  segunda parte, pero es muy encantador.   Realmente estamos comenzando penzar en Espana.  Tres semanas mas, no?   www.jayarama.us/kd.cal.txt
Muy bien oir de Vd.  Piendo es un hecho, todas estas esfuerzas pequenas que esta intentando esta colectando y va a ser un resultado bueno!!!        Ya vamanos a la proxima carta!!!

Nitai Chadra's Anniversary

12 years, 5 months ago by msrinu in Other

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

This is Srinivasa from Richmond, VA. It's been while and we have some good news to share with you. It's been an year that you named our deities "Nitai Chaitanya Chandra" and we celebrated their anniversary at our home (Nitai Chandra Mandir) on this March 3rd.

Here with, I'm posting some of the snaps to (our joy) share with you.

And also we are continuing our daily sandha and reading, attending the con-calls and Bhakti-Vriksha every week.

Slowly realizing, how difficult it is to do sadhana (Good 16 rounds and especially the last few rounds of chanting) on every day to day basis. And realized a fact that unless I prioritize, it will be very difficult with the day to day work.

Hoping to receive your mercy and be worth of Krishna's servant.

-Srinivasa

Hare Krsna.   AGTSP.   paoho.  So, nice to hear from you all!   Thank you for the news and photos.  We hope to get to your side for Labor Day weekend again even with Professor Gupta!.

You can see we are in Australia now.  We just finished lunch. It was more peaceful but still about 10 diffrent items cooked by 6 different people!    Several people watching while you eat and suggesting please now try this, now this.  It is like a comedy but it is a struggle to eat calmly meditating on what your poor body needs.  Very funny.

If we put the rounds as priority for some time then we realize that they make EVERYTHING easier: Health, money, family, power, preaching, immortality...  Everything. Then they are easier to chant.  Then we actually FEEL them working.   Try getting that higher taste like on Ekadasi. Put them in high priority for some time and then you will see this is just the most practical thing from every aspect.

Segunda Iniciación

   Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias. Si, puede ser el próximo sábdo, voy  a avisarle a Prabhu Om Kesavaya, a qué hora podría Usted?. Muchas Gracias,

   Su Sirvienta,

    Dhanistha devi dasi.

HpS - TlgaSP   pfanrh.  Desculpa demurra.  Por la manana estamos hablando en SKYPE con Om Kesavaya y fijando Sabado como 9PM para Gayatri Diksa.  Para nosotros va a ser 11AM.         Es muy satisfactorio para nosotros que Vd esta acceptando segunda iniciacion. 

hare krishna from Mayapur

12 years, 5 months ago by Bhakta Reilly in Other

Hare Krishna maharaja, from Mayapur

I saw you were here a little bit before the 10th in the Temple maharaja, I already guessed you had left Mayapur after the GBC meetings and Gaura Purnima festival had started. So my mother wanted me to send a online letter to you.

Somehow by krishnas mercy me and my family have moved over to Europe and safely traversed a path to visit Sri Mayapur dham. It's been very inspiring along the way coming through Villa Vrindavan and other temples, but also hectic as well (we lost our Caitanya-charitamrita + Srimad Bhagavatam Bookset in they're respective suitcases on a plane-mixup in New York, they're luckily returning to my father in america now and we're hoping they are okay) now were here and me and my whole family have gotten to see the true heart of Srila Prabhupadas movement, Jaya Srila Prabhupada! My siblings and even my father have taken to Krishna Consciousness from the Dhams association and sri sri gaura nitai's mercy.

I have to admit that before coming I slipped into neglect of my chanting and 4 regs for many many months..... but somehow through divine mercy I I've been trying to follow your instructions maharaja, chanting 16 rounds, 4 regs, read the Bhagavatam daily, Rise at 4 AM and serve Bhoga and kirtan to our Jaganath + Gaura Nitai deitys. My father returned to America in order to work to support us (such is this age of Kali..) while I'm helping to maintain my mother and siblings material + devotional life. I got a job assisting a senior Devotee (vasudeva dasa) with his BhakTV devotional films distribution and work. I feel very happy to still be able to serve somehow. :)

im looking at learning Sculpting + Art for a career, it'll also involve a 3d program called 'Maya' ironically based on the literal sanskrit word for 'Illusion', haribol. lol.

It's been a bumpy road, I still wonder why Srila Prabhupada would cast any blessings to this swine... but I feel I've taken something not to be forgotten.

I want to say I'm sorry for any offenses I made to you Maharaja in the past.. from being silent in the Boise Prasad hall because I was afraid to disturb you to just being excessively talkative. Thank you for all your guidance and mercy

your fallen servant,

Bhakta Reilly (G.)

             ASA - HpS -    AGTSP!     Buck White wants to say that some of the best people in the universe are swine.  You should just go into the garbage to help, not to eat.   Why didn't you say hello to us in Mayapura!!!   We heard you were there!             It is so nice to hear from you.    You are still growing up.  God, the senses are so strong and the intelligence is so small.  Do you best.    Whatever control you have in following the four principles you will later appreciate, appreciate, appreciate!     If you fall down, get up.  Kick your Ass and get going again!            As far as occupation, seems like you are making nice investigation, but we suggest you do a lot of investigation of different areas to see what abilties you have.     Lot to learn about yourself!

Jai Sri Krishna Jai Srila Prabhupada!

Hanumat Swami this is your most fallen servant Nela Madhava (neal shonyo--gov't name).  After many many years of forgetfullness Krishna called for me to reconnect with you as well as KC and serve in whatever capacity I am capable.  I always remember the amazing association in Pleasant Hills at my parents' old home you blessed us with.  In this constant struggle with material life my only relief is the spirutual knowledge yourself and other pure devotees have instilled in me by the mercy of Krishna.  I have been watching your youtube videos regarding the academic programs you are working on and would love to be of service in whatever way possible.  The word sueño in spanish translates to either dream or sleepiness in english.  I'm not sure if this is Krishna's way of telling me that this is my own ignorance but it is my sueño to see the principles of Vaishnava philosophy once again in direction of our world. 

I have been working on a project myself which I hope to establish at my school, University of South Florida.  Its called Philosophers of Today-Philanthropists of Tomorrow.  The objective is to find practical philosophical answers to the widespread societal problems as well as philanthropically based financial support to enact these methods.  Sources tell me these can be found in the books of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.  At any rate, there are many other people I know who would like to contribute to this cause and if I would be able to incorporate or couple your work with this that would be nice. 

I hope to have your association again soon.

Hare Krishna!

            ASA - HpS -  AgtSP!   Wow!   Last time I saw you was in Florida, no?  You Mother had just induced Gaja-hanta Das to tear out the big cactus in front of your house because it was bad Vastu and then the cactus got revenge by falling on her!!!   We would like to be of help to you however we can. You project sounds interesting.
It strikes us that one of the activities of a Brahmana, Philosopher, is to give charity.
What about the title "Philosophy Today, Philanthropy Tomorrow" [That's Tom Brown's idea].
Is there anything specific we can do?   We have a variety of things going and so do other devotees.  Thank you so much for writing.  How are you esteemed parents???
