Hare Krishna Gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances, hundreds of times. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.  


First , I want to thank you for your absolute  sankirtan, your example of resilience, and inspiration. And congratulate for your recent title Bhaktivedanta, Gurudeva, his intelligence, devotion and absolute dedication is so admirable. Thank you for such a beautiful thesis. I pray to Sri Krishna for protecting your health and your heart!  


Forgive me please Gurudev, for not having written to you in a long time. It’s not easy for me, I feeling insignificant in my activities or reports, But I try my best effort for read  your posts, and having you on WhatsApp now feels so closer, thank you for this  opportunity. I sabe all your drawings, are gold. 


Currently, I am in the stage of married life with my husband Ricardo, caring our son Baladev, soon he will be 3. Year old. We live in a very peaceful community in Hidalgo, not near to temple, but helps to raise with peace. Though we live a little bit far from devotees, I stay in contact with good devotee friends, and this help to maintain absolute faith in Sri Sri Radha Krishna, especially Sri Nrisimhadeva, who gives immense strength and courage when fears invade. Sometimes I feel frustrated for not have a constant spiritual life, but I will never stop trying Gurudev.  I can’t, the life without Sri Krishna it’s not life. 


We have the deeply desire to visit you in the USA Gurudeva, and beg for your blessings, because without it would be impossible, and  any difficulty could be easily overcome, cause are so many hehe, 

We hope and pray it may not take too long time to achieve it . 

Thank you, Gurudev, for your infinity mercy that I’ve experienced. Many years ago on this spiritual process, I had strongly desired to visit you in other countries. And Sri Sri Radha Krishna and your causeless mercy, I experiment that mercy truly is. I will eternally treasure in my heart the opportunity to have followed you—to Madrid, Brihuega (Nueva Vrajamandala), Florence (Villa Vrindavan), Radhadesh in Belgium, and the ultimates was India (Mumbai). So just Thank you. I will strive to achieve the greatest mercy: to see you again. For now, I will look for the opportunity to follow your connections online; I will not give up to trying.


I pray for your health for many more years, dear Gurudev 🙏, and I hope to write again soon.  

Hare Krishna

HpS/ASA - AgtSP!... paoho... can you attach a clip of 25-maha mantras??

Thank you!

If we follow the four princely pals and chant hare krsna and read srila prabhupada's books for people, we are making a great GREAT G R E A T ! contribution to spiritual life.

Greetings from Nova Scotia

Dear Maharaja,


Please accept my humble obeisances.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!


I was looking through my old letters and I got teary eyed missing you!

It has been 5 years...!


We are still here in the maritimes of Canada, raising children. In this span of this time we have acquired two highland cows! My husband, Yogendra, has started a goshala to involve the community in goseva.


I will try to write and get your association more frequently. Praying for your mercy.


Your aspiring servant,

Rasa-mandali dasi


HpSwami - AgtSP. My God. It has been 25-years at least.

Be a devotee and Gauranga's mercy conquers all time and space.

Stories of the Universe - Trailer

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Please accept my obeisances


HpSwami .. AgtSP ...paoho!



On June 17th, I released the trailer and the first episode of the project "Stories of the Universe" (Second Edition). Here I share with you the 3-minute video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CupkOnQCZ6M&list=PLY1Q7EdIHHULGiq0Zga24GqzRdQCf9-vT&index=2


I would like to sincerely thank you for your wise teachings, especially during the Bhakti Vaibhava course you led in Peru. That experience helped me clarify many concepts that were essential in writing the scripts for this project.

I am still working at Huawei, and I continue to follow the four regulative principles and chant 16 rounds (about 90% of the time). I’m also doing service at ISKCON – Miraflores, supporting the preaching programs on Saturdays.


Thank you very much, Guru Maharaj, for being our guiding example.

HpSwami - If you don't finish your rounds, keep track of your debt and pay it back next day!


16x4 is the electronic handshake between us and Krsna.

Without that. The rest of the service is not properly encoded when it is sent.


We hope that they look at Stories from the Universe even in the halls of heaven.

1st year birthday celebration for Dhaasharathi

1 week, 2 days ago by sriram in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj,


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


My chanting has improved in the last few months. (I had told you in my last letter that i was struggling with my Japa with sleeplessness and exhaustion). I am chanting my rounds, and the quality has also improved now as I am getting better sleep.


The Whatsapp group is a wonderful idea, Guru Maharaj. It feels more personal, and I feel closer to your words than when you were posting on Twitter.


hps - asa -- many folks have said the same. the biggest room in the world is the room for self improvement, so we can always make things better. even carry them on to braja!


I reached Chennai, India last week and we are all here (Vishaka, Dhaasharathi, and Srinath's family too). We are here to celebrate Dhaasharathi and Chandranana's 1st year ayushomam ceremony which will be held on July 16th (the stars of both kids fall on this day). We are having the ceremony for both children on the same day. We will have a yagna and the ear-piercing ceremony. Both kids are walking now, and they are a handful.


They both love the morning program and rarely miss it. When they are crying, taking them to the altar and showing them the deities instantly stops their crying.



asa - 🐵 my God!!!


We just had their heads tonsured last Saturday (14th June) at Pazhani, a famous Kartikeya temple (a family custom).


For their birthdays on 27th and 28th June, we are all going to Mayapur, Guru Maharaj. Dhaasharathi's birthday on 27th has fortunately fallen on the same day as the Rath Yatra in Rajapur. We are staying in Mayapur from 26th to 30th.


asa - 😬 very amazing!


We pray for your blessings so that both children can become nice devotees and serve to their best abilities in Srila Prabhupada's mission.


I am not sure if I already informed you of this development, Guru Maharaj. The last few months have been a blur. Vishaka has taken shelter from His Grace Vaisesika Prabhu. We will be going to ISV in September for Maharaj's Vyasa puja.


I listened to this 2-part seminar recently on vaidhi and raganuga bhakti by Hari Parshad prabhu and found them really wonderful:

https://youtu.be/7IdYDRwXOBY?si=jmm06aQgvPnHvWP2


I will send some pictures of both children to you on WhatsApp, Guru Maharaj.


Your humble servant

Sri Rama Krishna Das


HpS - We are trying to listen to Hari parishad Das lectures on Upadesamrta, so will add these to the list.

Very best Krsna conscious perspective on all these rituals!

Very best.

Whenever we use our S23 elite we think of you.

Please send more news of this exciting journey!!

Respuesta a su pregunta

1 week, 2 days ago by ekangi in Personal Sadhana Reports

TlGaSP! Todas las glorias a los Vaishnavas!


Mi muy querido Gurudev, como siempre es tan bondadosamente agradable recibir sus cartas. Muchas gracias.

Respondiendo su pregunta, en el año 2011 me titulé como Instructora de Pedagogía Teatral. Pero hace años no trabajo en ésto. En el año 2013 comencé a dedicarme a la Metafísica y a realizar talleres de Tarot, Onirología y terapias relacionadas. Desde esa fecha me dedico a interpretar Tarot. Siempre ha sido muy lumínico y positivo. Pero ahora tengo dudas al respecto y me gustaría que por favor usted me aclarara si es posible: El tarot está dentro de la categoría Juegos de azar? Será negativo energeticamente? Hay devotos que piensan que leer el tarot abre camino a entidades bajas y/o que es mal karma. En lo particular siempre trato de generar ayuda y consciencia espiritual, pero tal vez no sea bueno para mi hija y yo.

Estoy confundida y no sé si seguir dedicándome económicamente a ésto.

Por favor me puede guiar al respecto? Disculpe molestar.

Por otra parte, me gustaría enviarle Dharsine. Gurudev usted tiene cuenta PayPal? Cómo puedo enviar Laksmi a usted?

Agradezco el tiempo dedicado.

Con muchos deseos de verlo (hija también) un gran abrazo de ésta elefanta torpe.

Ekangi Dd e Yi Lin.

My very dear Gurudev, as always, it's so kindly pleasant to receive your letters. Thank you very much.


In response to your question, I qualified as a Theater Pedagogy Instructor in 2011. But I haven't worked in this field for years. In 2013, I began to dedicate myself to Metaphysics and to teaching workshops on Tarot, Oneirology [the scientific study of dreams], and related therapies.

Since then, I've been reading Tarot. It has always been very luminous and positive. But now I have doubts about it and would like you to please clarify for me, if possible: Is tarot reading classified as gambling? Is it energetically negative? There are devotees who think that reading tarot leads to lower entities and/or that it's bad karma. Personally, I always try to generate spiritual help and awareness, but it may not be good for my daughter and me.


I'm confused and don't know if I should continue to dedicate myself financially to this.


Can you please guide me? Sorry to bother you.


Also, I'd like to send you Dharsine [daksina]. Gurudev, do you have a PayPal account? How can I send Laksmi to you?


I appreciate your time.


With much desire to see you (daughter too), a big hug from this clumsy elephant.


Ekangi Dd and Yi Lin.

HpS - A warm wave is proper. Ladies cannot embrace sannyasis!


I cannot say much about the Tarot.

Of course, there is no mention of this in Srila Prabhupada's instructions, comments on life, that he left for us in his books.

The pictures may be archetypal as mentioned by Jung, and Brahmana, Ksatriya etc are parts of the Virata rupa.

An intuitive person may give some insight stimulated by the cards that occur, but I do not know.

It can even be classified as entertainment like the jugglers that served in Krsna's court in Dvaraka. if you are following principles etc. then i cannot see how the energy would be negative.

write a krsna conscious story of each card and post it here.


we don't have a paypal account. maybe we can get it set up with the houston temple for sankirtan work here eg. making a school for you all to join and study cinema!

never part of SP ISKCON

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj

AGTSP,

Please accept my Obeisances


Personally we dont want to write as is it might intervene in your lila -smaranam/internal life.


HpS - We hope they become the same. bahir nrsmha, hrdaye nrsmha!!


node:15645

in the NoI we looked at how he defined iskcon, this movement, and it started with non-envious, following four principles, rounds, up early, associating with discrimination with three different kinds of devotees in the society.


we are very thank ful to you to give this hierarchy/stages. we messed up this very much. trying to association with discrimination without up early/rounds etc.


we want to complain, but we know that's stupidity, its rare to even know/hear of Krsna and his holy name, in many life times.


though perfection is always ahead, but still we appreciate what is with us.

strive for WOW, dont forget NOW .

trying to move ahead or hang on

HpS - In our opinion, your son and family are very fortunate to have you as a member.

Mark Twain said that life would be a lot easier if we were all born 80-years old and got younger?

Next life in Nabadvipa as member of Nimai's iskcon gang?
