Jay Radha y Krsna.

Jay Krsna-Balarama

Hello Maharaja

I am Bhakta Pablo of the Parikrama, from Spain.

First of all happy day of the Appearance of Nityananda and Varaha.

ASA - Thank you.

I just wanted to tell you that one day like today I have had a strong realization about Sadhu-sanga, the association of devotees more advanced than one, especially of the same mood. Especially Sadhus, literally, and a poor wretch like me, lacking opportunities to associate in person with true Sadhus, licks the jar closed praying that one day I can taste the inside of the jar of honey.

HpS - You seem to be doing pretty well!

You can not believe the thanks I give for knowing You, for the influence You exert on me. For the respect, and the example that I see in You as a true master of the secrets of Yoga. Of the service and devotion to Radha-Krsna, Balarama and all the great personalities.

HpS - AgtSP!

I can not really complain, I have many great souls to inspire me besides You within ISKCON, people like You, make my heart can dream of pure devotional service.

Thank you very much for all Maharaja.

I hope someday to be able to fully please You, and to become a soul, to claim to be the servant of the servant of a servant of Radha-Krsna in Vrndavan.

Forgive me for praising You, I know it's not good for You, but a soul has to give thanks for His presence in our life.

I wanted to write a poem or a power point, but I could not, I hope to quote a song by Bhaktivinoda Thakura, subtract a bit from my silly sentimentality.

(1) Alas! Now I realize that all of my days had passed uselessly, for I never had the great fortune of associating with the devotees of the Lord. Therefore, instead of hearing from them about the process of attaining the topmost goal of human life, I have wasted my time simply working hard to earn money.

(2) This is such an unfortunate calamity, for I now consider that I have rejected pure gold simply to become attached and devoted to a small clod of dirt. In other words, I have abandoned the bright-faced golden devotees of the Lord to associate with filthy dirty persons who are averse to Krsna. Thus in their company I have passed my entire life dazed in madly intoxicated vanity.

(3) Whenever I saw someone decorated with the signs of a Vaisnava like tilaka, neck beads and sikha, etc., I would laugh at them within my mind, considering them to be completely insane. Regarding this attitude of mine to be the most highly cultured behavior, I have thereby robbed myself of the transcendental association of those touch stone-like devotees. So now in the end I am wondering . . . where has all this nonsense led me to?

(4) On the strength of my material education, I became puffed up and completely overlooked the most auspicious form of spiritual life, which is available only by devotional service. Thus I have completely steered clear of the ultimate goal of life. But now in my old age, all of this polluted material knowledge I worked so hard for is dwindling, for my memory is gradually fading away. Just see how I am captured and tormented in enjoying the fruits of my previous material activities!

(5) Now I have just one last hope. If only the devotees would be merciful to this sinful rogue by sprinkling me with one drop from the bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu, the nectarine ocean of pure devotion, then I will be satisfied. By the sweet influence of that single drop, I will instantly and effortlessly become liberated from the strong grip of this material world, and thus I will finally be able to cross over the ocean of nescience.

Hare Krsna Maharaja

HpS - "May the land of Srila Vrndavana where Subala and the other wonderful cowherd boys, who are all dear friends of Sri Krsna, play, where Lalita and the other splendidly beautiful young gopis, who are all filled with love for Srimati Radharani, enjoy transcendental bliss, and where Sri Sri Radha-Krsna thirst to enjoy wonderful transcendental amorous pastimes day and night, become manifest in my heart." 1.15. http://www.jayarama.us/archives/vdm.docx

Thank you for your association over all these years.  More to do, more to do. We visit Spain soon.

HpS - There is nothing here. Must be a message from the Buddha!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj,

PAMHO and AGTSP!

Please forgive me for a previous letter I sent where I used the word foe in the heading instead of folly. In a poetic and pathetic haze, my Sudra tendencies went unchecked. When I found out this old English word meant enemy I was feeling quite fallen. Please feel free to change/edit/destroy this title/post as you like. 

Your fallen servants, Kamagayatri Dasi and Murari Dasa

Monkey, Piggy - Got ya covered!   AGTSP

Nanuk - you never learn, so pleas @#$%^, w really wish you that, merrily,, you #$%^&. #$%^&

HpS - ASA -- Esteemed, Nanuk.    We look at our Letters to Answer and find all these Taboo words in the Subject and in the letter.   I don't know what you are talking about that we never learn, but we need a rest from such abusive language.

If you still want to communicate with us we will merrily look at letters after a few weeks of rest and recreation for you and me. Hare Krsna.  Hari Hi!

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to Guru parampara.

1. Do we have any specific scripture / book for to know about Krsna's daily schedules?

HpS - "Lord Krsna's Daily Activities" in the KRSNA book, no?

2. Do we have any specific scripture / book for to know about demi god's residential information in different planets?

HpS - As I remember the story of when Bali Maharaja conquers Indra in the SB may describe Amaravati. Proabably 9th Canto. Then the Fifth Canto may have some eg. the chapter "Subterrenean Heavenly Planets".

Thank you so much Gurudev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - Thank you.  Let's go to the next letter.
