Hare Krsna querido Gurudeva

Acepte por favor mis más humildes y respetuosas reverencias. Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Estando tan cerca el trascendental día de su aparición en este mundo es que le escribo esta carta querido Gurudeva.

El año pasado en la reunión de hermanos espirituales (Hps), se acordó que cada año se nombraría dos o tres discípulos encargados de la celebración de su Vyasapuja. En ésta reunión se acordó también que para el Vyasapuja que aquí en Perú lo celebraremos el 13 de enero del 2021 los encargados serían Lavanya Mangala dd, Tarangaksi dd y Jana-pavana das.

Habiendo consultado a muchos hermanos y hermanas espirituales, sobre cuál sería la mejor manera de celebrar su Vyasapuja debido a la coyuntura tan especial que se está viviendo en estos días por la pandemia mundial (Cov19), y pensando en no exponer la salud e integridad de ningún discípulo se llegó a la conclusión que la mejor manera de hacerlo sería de manera virtual.

Todos coincidimos que sería una oportunidad única para celebrar su trascendental aparición sus hijos e hijas de diferentes países (Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, México y Perú) juntos.

Es por ello que deseamos invitarlo a Ud a que nos acompañe el 13 de enero a esta reunión virtual, sólo si Ud puede amado Gurudeva, no sabemos dónde ni cómo tiene pensado pasarlo y la idea es agasajarlo sin crearle inconvenientes.

Su eterno sirviente

Jana-pavana das

HpS - Jaya. AgtSP. Vyasapuja. Oportunidad para todos nosotros glorificar todo el Parampara. No se quien va a 'tomar carga de organizar'? Claro, Vd. Mataji, Tarangasksi DD son buen personas organizar con consejo de otros. Posibile unos otros peticiones ayudar aquir o con Vds.

Y si una programa on-line esta dia estuvier bueno. 13 Enero.

Hare Krishna!!!!!!!!!!!

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las Glorias a UD, querido Gurumaharaja.

Por favor acepte nuestras reverencias. PAMHO

El boletín ya está (en ingles y español) en el grupo de Facebook, este es el enlace:

Leimos que no fue fácil para UD hacer el KD. Lamentamos eso y entendemos todo el esfuerzo que hace para compartir este hermoso boletín. Gracias al TWITTER podemos saber un poco mas de UD. Ademas en algunas ocasiones podemos escuchar sus clases. Eso nos hace Felices y conectados.

Continuamos con las clases virtuales. De alguna manera intentamos, a través de las clases, ayudar al buen desarrollo físico-animico-espiritual de los niños y las niñas. En esta pedagogía los temas de los cursos son dados de acuerdo a la edad y el desarrollo físico. Buscamos en cada tema la conexión con el entorno físico y espiritual. De esta manera los temas no son tan abstractos sino que son relacionados con el ser humano y su entono.

Estamos más fijos en el sadhana y la adoración. Estamos mas atentos en este mes de Damodara haciendo una ofrenda diariamente. Continuamos ofreciendo todo lo que llega a nuestras manos a nuestras hermosas deidades.

Muchas gracias por darnos este grandioso servicio

HpS - Jaya!!! Jaya! The monkeys were throwing rocks while the Raksasas were using smart missles, but the monkeys were winning because they were blessed by Mother Sita!!

Hare Krsna

Please accept my obeysances at your lotus feet.

Thanks a Lot. My email is xxx

I thank You so much.🙏

HpS - AGTSP! When is the date again??? Please include your e-mail address again. Thank you !! I think the time is getting very short for us to make this recording but we hope we can do it.

Hare Krishna Gurudev,

Please accept our humble obeisances,

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada,

I watched the link you shared about Rupanuga Prabhu and Ayurveda.

Prabhu starts speaking about Ayurveda Parampara, how Baradwaj received this knowledge from Indra. And how this knowledge has been passed through sages to their students. 

Then he speaks about ashta siddhis, and how they are real and within human capabilities.

Finally he speaks about coronavirus, making the analogy with the virus as a little child coming to fight you. He says that if one small child comes and hits you, he will do no harm, but if a thousand small kids come at the same time, then the damage will be considerable. It is the same with covid19 he explains, the severity of infection depends on your immune system fighting with the viral load.

And I think that is pretty much everything he says in the link you shared.

At your service Gurudev,

Nikunja Bihari das.

HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. Thank you for the very useful summary. We will see if Rupanuga Ji sends some links specifically for the Blog?

Hare Krishna Gurudev,

Por favor acepte nuestras humildes reverencias,

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada,

Vi el enlace que compartio sobre Rupanuga Prabhu y Ayurveda.

Prabhu comienza a hablar sobre Ayurveda Parampara, cómo Baradwaj recibió este conocimiento de Indra. Y cómo este conocimiento se ha transmitido a través de los sabios a sus estudiantes.

Luego habla sobre los ashta siddhis y cómo son reales y están dentro de las capacidades humanas.

Finalmente habla sobre el coronavirus, haciendo la analogía con el virus cuando un niño pequeño viene a luchar contra ti. Dice que si un niño pequeño viene y te golpea, no te hará daño, pero si mil niños pequeños vienen al mismo tiempo, el daño será considerable. Lo mismo ocurre con el covid19, explica, la gravedad de la infección depende de que su sistema inmunológico esté luchando contra la carga viral.

Y creo que eso es prácticamente todo lo que dice en el enlace que compartio.

A su servicio Gurudev,

Nikunja Bihari das.

Hare Krishna Gurudeva! PAMHO! AGTSP!

Divya Drsti devi dasi from Cusco asked me to send you this letter:

Hare Krishna Gurumaharaja

Please, receive my humble obeisances

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

Gurumaharaja, thank you very much for your last answer, It was great.

Gurudeva, I have a question

Do I get married or not?

Since I am a little girl like 11 years old I dreamed with love, now I am 44 years old and I need to solve this enigma, I have heard a few lectures of ISKCON about grihastha asram and I realised that It is not easy.

However I have the desire to get married, I do not know exactly why......maybe because I did not have enought loving care and confidence from my father when I was a child or it is simply because it is a woman natural necessity.

I have been suffering a lot because of this, of course before been a devotee I tried to have a formal relationship but It had a very painful ending.

Now that I am a devotee my mind has change totally since 11 years ago.

Although I know it is difficult to get married....knowing that maybe I will lost my freedom...I feel attracted to get married.

I saw the possibility to live with matajis because I feel alone but It is not easy to organize It, women need to have covered all their needs and need security and sometimes I think I could not stablish something like that for my friends matajis, I have the doubt.

On the other hand if I do not get married maybe I will ask myself always: "why I did not try It? maybe It would work".

Married or not married definitely I want to share my life with devotees, or live next to devotees or next to a temple.

My material family is nice but they are not devotees, as I am trying to become a better devotee sometimes It does not help to live with them, but It helps only when I have to learn to be compassionate, tolerant and patient with them....that is the advantage to live with my father, my sister and brother.

There is a page leaded by Maharaja Jayapataka disciples who make arrangements for marriage. It seems a good page, I would like to try it, I have the desire to have a husband, even despite knowing that maybe I will suffer or it would not be good.

Unless I will chek and satisfy my desire in a relative devotional way, I have this feeling of doing It putting Krishna in the center.

As you know Gurudeva I was a tour guide, I had two opportunities to have a relationship with Karmis but because I always wanted to get married with a devotee I did not took these opportunities.

I want to feel peace in my mind and my heart, I really want to feel stable to serve Krishna with art, it's been many years I have this feeling, now the time arrived to solve It.

If I would get married and suffer unless I will get purified.

Married or not married I am going to do my service of puppets and kirtan and doing preaching with art.

Of course, I would like a husband who helps me with the preaching. My idea would be to look for a devotee who would want to preach, maybe to live 6 months per year in Cusco city and Sacred Valley organizing preaching activities with art and the rest of the time maybe in his country or traveling to preach too.

Well this is my utopia.....I do not know if Krishna wants that for me.

Unless I really need to solve It and take a decision, I need to have peace in my mind and focus in my service.

If Krishna wants me to be single celibate devotee maybe the things will go in this direction, but I would like to feel peace in my heart with this, not feeling uncomfortable, dissatisfied, embittered or incomplete or that I did not married because of fear.

In one moment I felt very fear thinking: If my husband do not let me preach with art!!! No, that would be terrible!! I would prefer to be single in that case.

However the idea would be to look for a husband that would agree to help me with preaching.

Gurudeva, I am so sorry to ask you about it, but with my father I can not talk about this subject, because he does not understand me.

I have been listening HG Mahatma Das Prabhu Lectures and he says why do you generally think negative? Maybe you find a devotee that is good for you a sadhu that helps and inspire you in your spiritual life, as well I have talk with a mataji that serves in GVT grihastha visión team of ISKCON and she recommended me before jumping to marriage to know well the person.

Gurudeva, please could you give me your advice, opinion and recommendations?

Thank you very much for your help.

Your servant:

Divya Dristi DD.

HpS -ASA --- Hare Krsna! AgtSP. Please accept our humble obeisances. Your letter was a little long so I had to skim through part of it, but I think I have a good perspective.

I would say that you should try to marry Krsna. Of course, that is a very high aspiration, but if He comes as a Deity, then you might ask Radha if She will shar Him with you. Krsna can handle 16,108 Queens, why not a few more..

On the other hand, at 44-years you should probably think about a Vanaprastha relationship. It is not unnatural. It is too old to start a family with children, but there are many, many children who are looking for mothers (aunts). Maybe Krsna will send a devotee who is looking for the same thing, some emotional relation, in Vanaprastha ashrama.

So Krsna or Krsna representative.
