Hare Krishna Beloved Gurudeva

AGTSP PAMHO

We do not deserve it but we all too greedy and we want the handwritten DTC 2018

Nov 18th Dec 22nd

Thanks Gurudeva

Trying to be your disciple

Candramukhi dd

ASA - Jaya! AGTSP & paoho. Thank you for your association!! Right after we published the Kapi Dhvaja we had the brilliant (?) idea that we should chop off the spine of the Composition Book (75-cents), scan it on Office Max' s autofeeder (15-cents a page) but not spiral bind it and distribute it. Rather we should go through it and extract the important pages that could be collectedm, for example, in the ASA Encyclopedia on different themes.

So, with your blessings, that is what we are doing.

Yet , we are devotees of Lord Krsna, so any pious good lady's request should never go in vain (https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/8/17/17/). Thus, we have just sent a copy of the PDF scan to your "nityananda..." address. Is that O.K? Then we shall arrange to deliver some of our, Tom Brown/Buck White, original Trash literature to you and your community at the first possible date.

What is your physical address? Address in Lima?

Thank you.

Please engage us more and more in your wonderful Sankirtan

Hare Krishna!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Please accept my must humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

HpS - AgtSP!!! We look at our feet and they look pretty youthful. That is amazing for 70-year old American feet. Must be the miracle of Yoga, miracle of Srila Prabhupada's path.

Maharaja , i hope you are in good health and doing good!

HpS - Actually we feel very bad. Oooof! Oink!!! Body is aching. Some nausea. Where is the Sun of the Yadu dynasty? Where is the baby that Devaki lost in a moment after He appeared?

Well, it´s been a while since the last time i wrote,

HpS - ASA - Yep. Everyone thought you had gone to the Great Banana Forest in the Sky.

. . . but i decide to take a time to organize everything to be able to handle all this that is under my responsibility, my daughter, my occupation and my devotional service.

ASA - Also your finger nails!

At the moment I'm following my principals at point, reading more and attending to the temple and Bhavagad-Gita classes as much as my occupations allows me. i started to do my service in the temple´s kitchen, and starting my bhakta course this month. i had a time were my job, my occupations and some health issues kept me really busy so i wasn't able to attend to Sunday´s service here at the temple, but i´m better now and everything for now is on point. H.H Bhakti Bhusana Swami was here in Panama a couple of weeks ago,

HpS - Why did he go there? Do they have first class basket ball?

i attended to his classes and kirtan he did in the Bhakti-yoga Center here in Panama.

I´m Venezuelan, and as i knew Maharaja was there before he came to Panama we got a chance to talk about the situation there. many question came to my mind, and i asked few to Maharaja Bhakti-Bhusana, but some other came to me after he left the country, and i was wondering to ask this questions to you, as a way to clarify some doubts i have.

first question would be: What could be a reason for the collective Karma this people are suffering, and i refer specifically to spiritual matters.

HpS - They crucified Jesus in their last lifetime.

. . . if there is, could you give me an example of an ancient civilization that has had to suffer collective karma? i would really appreciate your answer, so i can be able to understand the aspects of karma better.

HpS - Aaag! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanjing_Massacre

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust,

etc. etc. Taking birth in USA where Mac Donalds is King is also the Karma of all the people.

Association with Maharaja was pure nectar, i asked for advises to keep my Sadhana steady, and he told me to associate with elder or more experience devotees, to keep my service and bhakti strong and growing!

thanks for you valuable time and for reading this!

Hare Krishna!!!

HpS - Thank you for news of Maharaja! We sit and talk sometimes. https://www.vedabase.com/en/cc/madhya/22/113

Hope we get pictures here soon!!! Read the answers to other letters!!

Haribol Hanumatpresaka Swami! PAMHO! AGTSP! Yes, I saw some videos from Nios Image, but you asked me i I wanted to write something for the magazine Solaris. ¿? Write where ? My teacher has answered the message, he says that the topic inspires and interests him a lot, but he does not think he can contribute much. He says we'll talk about it in September. I have asked him to warn me before September. He lives in Valencia, but maybe he can travel to Madrid, Barcelona or Guadalajara. I will inform you when I know if he wants to participate or not. Here in Nueva Vrajamandala, I'm going to do the disciples' course and the Bhakti Yoga course. thanks you! Arina.

HpS - Hare Krsna! AGTSP!! This letter was 4-months ago. We were not able to answer almost any letters for months while traveling. Now we seem to be getting our feet on the ground here again in Tennessee, but then, end of January we will travel again.

Nice thing is that we got to meet you in bodily existence while we were in Spain.

I have never met anyone more intelligent or more compassionate or more humble than Srila Prabhupada. I hope you can also get to know him very well. If you know a superior person, or have a superior idea, he is the first to be eager to meet them or understand.

Hare Krsna!

AGTSP.  paoho.   Tom Brown here.    HpS has the doors and windows closed so our hay fever is down to 5%.        Today is Srila Prabhupada's Tiro-bhava-mahotsava, departure festival.

Hari-nama-ruci fanatics (led by H. H. Maha-visnu Swami) are here. We sold a book yesterday with them!

Fast until noon then 4PM = Bhajan, 5PM= Abhiseka and Fire Sacrifice (Diksa), .... Arati....  Prabhupada Katha.

Had 30-minute conversation with Dr. Samaresh. He is O.K.   Kolkata is descending to human heat levels.   He gets the final copy of the Index for 'Siksa-darsha' tomorrow!   We are trying to refine the India calendar. He suggests release Siksa-darsha in Pune. We could co-ordinate it with the Symposium on Education.  Then not a fourth book of the papers presented BUT articles for 'Solaris'.

Have to try ghee on our knees.     Leaving soon to our next body, world.

Morning program here is very strong.

Now we will go to Dhatri-yoga for some Govardhana Puja time.

Hare Krsna. Hare Rama.

15-minutes with NGD Prabhu.

Hare Krishna Gurumaharaj!!! Jay Srila Prabhupada!!

Aquí está la serie de videos que de momento se encuentran en youtube. En el futuro vamos a ir subiendo más partes de su entrevista. Espero que le gusten.
