Hare Krishna muy querido y siempre recordado Gurumaharaja 🙏

Aún seguimos en "Gopalandia"= Cochabamba Bolivia (todos los devotos tienen un Gopal en sus casas) Estamos hospedados con los discípulos de Srila Narayana Goswami Maharaja, ellos tienen una relación vivencial espiritual tan fuerte con su guru que nos inspira mucho. Ayer tuvimos un programa de Ratha Yatra y me dieron la misericordia de pintar a las deidades JBS para el festival 🙏

El Prabhu Nityananda (vivió 16 años en India) formó un grupo para tocar bhajans MANTRARAS, mi pareja (Govinda) toca los cartalos y yo hago coros. Concursamos para un concierto musical grande que organiza la Alianza Francesa y fuimos clasificados!!!! El sábado 24 de junio tenemos la presentación musical, también repartiremos dulces haribolitas prasadam. Y el 25 (sí Krishna quiere regresamos a Perú)

Se presentó la oportunidad para viajar al templo de España. Escribí al Prabhu Mahajan para consultar sobre un anuncio de voluntariado en el hotel del templo, luego hablamos y cuando le conté que estudié educación y tenía práctica con niños que tienen diversos problemas de aprendizaje, el Prabhu me dijo que quizás podía hacer el voluntariado en el gurukula. Consulté con mi papá y él está muy feliz de que yo viaje al templo de España (ese es su deseo y sueño para sus hijos, que hagamos nuestras vidas fuera de Sudamérica) mi papá se siente más seguro si yo estaría con los devotos. Según me dijo el Prabhu Mahajan en estos días me mandarían la invitación para que yo solicite una visa religiosa por un año... bueno mi deseo real es estar en España para así luego poder ir a India y verlo Gurumaharaja Y al mismo tiempo conocer a la familia de mi pareja que viven en Eslovaquia e Inglaterra (soy sincera) Mis tíos que me educaron de niña ya dejaron este mundo, siento que necesito cambiar de espacio, laboralmente ya aprendí lo básico para trabajar con niños en Sudamérica (hice unas prácticas en un centro de terapia para niños en Bolivia y la metodología es la misma) Pero usted qué opina Gurumaharaja?

Sí Krishna quiere que el viaje a España se realice pues iría con Govinda (mi pareja es de Europa así que para él no hay que realizar trámites de protocolo) él estaría conmigo un mes quizás y luego Govinda iría a Checoslovaquia para un trabajo. Pensamos en casarnos pero mi papá dice que es mejor esperar un tiempo más para conocernos (tenemos 2años y unos meses de relación) pienso que los europeos cargan unos trastornos sociales históricos muy fuertes (la unión soviética, invasiones de Sudamérica, India, etc) karmaticamente les cuesta mucho ser sumisos y quizás rendirse al guru y Krishna (piensan mucho con la mente,ego y escuchan poco a paramatma quizás)

Yo lo extraño mucho Gurumaharaja... aún creo que va venir a Perú para pasar su cumpleaños con nosotros...pero luego pienso que usted siempre se acercó a nosotros, ahora es tiempo de que nosotros vayamos a verlo donde usted se encuentre.

Que el Señor Nrsimha lo siga bendiciendo y protegiendo mucho!!! Mis oraciones son para usted 🙏

Gracias por los mensajes a través del corazón 🙏🧡🙏

Con aprecio y respeto:

PAMHO

Hare Krishna very dear and always remembered Gurumaharaja 🙏

We are still in "Gopalandia" = Cochabamba Bolivia (all devotees have a Gopal in their homes) We are staying with the disciples of Srila Narayana Goswami Maharaja, they have such a strong spiritual experiential relationship with their guru that it inspires us a lot. Yesterday we had a Ratha Yatra program and I was given the mercy to paint the JBS deities for the festival 🙏

Prabhu Nityananda (lived 16 years in India) formed a group to play MANTRARAS bhajans, my partner (Govinda) plays the cartalos and I do choirs. We competed for a large musical concert organized by the Alliance Française and we were classified!!!! On Saturday June 24 we have the musical presentation, we will also distribute sweet haribolitas prasadam. And on the 25th (if Krishna wants we return to Peru)

The opportunity presented itself to travel to the temple in Spain. I wrote to Prabhu Mahajan to inquire about a volunteer advert at the temple hotel, then we talked and when I told him that I studied education and had practice with children who have various learning disabilities, the Prabhu told me that perhaps I could volunteer at the gurukula. I consulted with my dad and he is very happy that I travel to the temple in Spain (this is his wish and dream for his children, that we make our lives outside of South America) my dad feels more secure if I would be with the devotees. As Prabhu Mahajan told me, these days they would send me the invitation so that I could apply for a religious visa for one year... well, my real desire is to be in Spain so that later I can go to India and see Gurumaharaja and at the same time meet Gurumaharaja. my partner's family who live in Slovakia and England (I'm honest) My uncles who raised me as a child have already left this world, I feel I need to change places, at work I already learned the basics to work with children in South America (I did an internship in a therapy center for children in Bolivia and the methodology is the same) But what do you think, Gurumaharaja?

If Krishna wants the trip to Spain to take place, he would go with Govinda (my partner is from Europe so there are no protocol procedures for him) he would be with me for perhaps a month and then Govinda would go to Czechoslovakia for a job. We thought about getting married but my dad says that it is better to wait a while longer to get to know each other (we have been in a relationship for 2 years and a few months) I think that Europeans carry very strong historical social upheavals (the Soviet Union, invasions of South America, India, etc) karmatically It is very difficult for them to be submissive and perhaps surrender to guru and Krishna (they think a lot with their minds, ego and listen little to paramatma perhaps)

I miss you very much Gurumaharaja... I still think that he will come to Peru to spend his birthday with us... but then I think that you always approached us, now it's time for us to go see him wherever you are .

May Lord Nrsimha continue to bless and protect you a lot!!! My prayers are for you 🙏

Thanks for the messages through the heart 🙏🧡🙏

With appreciation and respect:

HpS - Hare Krsna. AgtSP! Paoho. Hope there are some photos attached. Very interesting news. Go ahead with your efforts. You seem to be on the right path. Respects to "Your Partner", Govinda. 😃

Almost any relationship is fine if everyone is following 16/4 under the authority of Srila Prabhupada.

Going to India to see us is rather unstable. We have no plans to travel to India. We do not have any fixed travel or residential plans fixed yet, except what is in the Calendar in the:

KAPI DHVAJA

Yet, going to Spain, New Vraja-mandala seems very, very, nice.

Respects to your esteemed father.

Your analysis of European people seems to match ours in many aspects. They have much deeper resources than we Americans.

! Hari Bolo !.

It, the Sun's position, is 9.30PM now.

Brother Ass, our body, is very, very tired, exhausted, but Monkey, our mind, is still active.

Hare Krsna.

Thank you.

Thank all the participants in this Blog!

Hare Krsna, Gurudeva,

PAMHO, AGTSP.

It has been your causeless mercy that His Holiness gave us Hari-Nama Diksha. We are not worthy of being called your disciple, but due to your purity there is some attachment towards you.

HpS - AgtSP! !

By grace of Guru Parampara, we were fortunate to meet His Grace Partha Pratim Das, disciple of His Holiness Bhakti Caru Swami. He stayed in Mayapur for a long time and also decorated Radha Madhava many times.

He stays in Varanasi, and is doing PhD on Sat-Sandarbha from BHU. He came to our home and office in Varanasi, and could easily understand our mental, uncivilised situation. He visited our parents and our in-laws in Delhi specially. He has met you, and he has firm faith in your mercy towards us and believes our past and present conditioning is nothing in front of your mercy.

His Whatsapp Number is +91-7xxx , and email address is ppxxx.

HpS - Should we write to him? 😃 How can we serve him?

We sent Kapi dhvaj to Dr. Samaresh by post, but it had not reached him. So we have sent him the online link on his Whatsapp message, and he has acknowledge to have read it. We will again send KD by different post.

HpS/ASA - Thank you so many! If he gets it by post, think it will 9-times easier for him to read it. Thank you!

Your Mexico Senate address was covered by BTG India in Hindi.

HpS - Govinda sundara Devi Dasi and Ranchor Das did 90% of the work to arrange that. We were like a trick dog that proudly dig the trick we were taught during the show!

We are trying our insincere /sincere efforts to be worthy be called at least shadow of your disciple.

HpS - Follow us following Srila Prabhupada is easy. That is sixteen nthuseastic rounds, 4-prinsipals strictly. We can make claim to nthuseastic rounds because we are up for FES. That is our discipline.

It is all His Divine Grace, but we try to add our little bit.

Bowing Down,

Hayagriva-Avatar Das

More news soon.

Jay, HK, Maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP!

How r u? Where are you now?

In response to your question I’m currently in Argentina, never been to Mexico unluckily.

I’ve been thinking about your point of view in relation to the position of the Jivatma in the spiritual realm and whether if can or can’t fall,

my very narrow mind firstly didn’t let me think quite openly about your statements,

but after a while, and thanks to Krishna, I began considering what you said.

I’m very sorry if I sound very persistent with this topic, the thing is that I need to understand truths, well in order to feel comfortable with myself and with Krishna.

So what I understood from what you told me is that there isn’t possibility of the soul falling accidentally from Vaikuntha or Goloka, but due to it’s free will he/she can choose to abandon Krishna’s company, did I get it right??

HpS/ASA

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/5/8/26/

"Due to the fruitive results of his past deeds, he fell down from mystic yoga, austerity and worship of the Supreme Personality of Godhead"

"The conclusion must be that Mahārāja Bharata purposefully became over-addicted to the deer and neglected his spiritual advancement."

So I’ve heard from Bhakisundar Goswami that liberated souls are Acyuta, the defintion of that word I know is one that doesn’t fall from his position and is infalible,

So my question is, why perfected souls might change from being perfect to being imperfect, wouldn’t that be a fault in perfection, not letting that quality express fully?

HpS/ASA - Srila Prabhupada comments that maybe we were this or that but now we are neither. We are in Maya. By following the process we see that we are becoming liberated from coffee, tea, tobacco, arrogance, greed for fame...

In our present state these things are not completely clear, but as we come out of the fog, they become clear.

Yes the soul is Acyuta.

Bh. Vinode Thakura gives an example of a child becoming absorbed in the mirror reflection of the moon, but that does not mean that it is not being still held by the affectionate mother. We become fallen in our little absorption in Maya, but that does not mean that we are not Acyuta at heart. That is how we heard him cited to explain this point today.

😃

We can go on, and on, and on with logical arguments, but basic principal is that we have free will in every circumstance, and if we chose to go into Maya we can.

Of course, we become frightened when we hear this because we want to enjoy independently (Maya), so we don't want to consider that we have responsibility for our actions.

It is scary, but it also means that we can do things that even Krsna can't predict.

We are little Gods.

We can create little realities, and invite Krsna to join our little play!

Well thank you for your support always, hope I’m not bothering with these questions.

please accept my obeisances!

HK!

Federico :)

Prabhu, thank you for the audio clip of one round of Japa!

Zubra Dasi and CCD sent us a Kroger gift certificate for Happy Father's Day.

Both gifts leave us breathless!

Let us offer everything to Lord Nrsmha Deva, the Supreme Father.

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/7/10/6/

We can go marketing for Him.

How to Improve Japa!

The entire SB, CC, NoD seems to be the answer to that question, no?

We heard H. H. Satsvarupa Das Gos. asked the same question to Srila Prabhupada, "How to chant better rounds, Srila Prabhupada"?

Then, SP looked at him with pointy eyes and said, "By chanting better rounds"!

So, that's the basic answer, no?? That if we are chanting rounds, we are getting intelligence from the Lord of the Heart. So, we have sufficient knowledge how to chant better, then the question is are we going to do it, be faithful, be Bhaktas. Use whatever strength we have to apply the improvement that our Krsna conscious intelligence is dictating.

Beyond that we were in Vaikuntha listening to the one round of Japa. Timed 10-mantras and they were 4.5 sec/mantra. Then the whole clip seems to be 8' 48" which is 5 seconds/Mantra.

(We are doing just about the same now.)

That means 16-rounds, 1728 mantras, = 8,640 sec. = 144 min. = 2hours and 24 minutes, no?

NoI 7 and 8 seem to be nice instructions on Japa. If we are chanting attentively, Nama, then we should start to develop a desire to see the form of the Lord, Rupa. Our intelligence starts asking us, "Hey, you chant'n 'Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare', but where is dis Krsna!"

So, we look around the room for a picture of Krsna (and cows (and Srimati Radharani)) or go sit in front of our Deities or in the Temple Room.

Does that happen to you?

"Nama, Rupa, Carit-adi..." (NoI 7 & 8). Adi = Sanga and Lila, no? All this should manifest if we are chanting with Bhakti.

• Sit properly.
• Breath properly.
• Chant with proper meaning.

We heard that Prabhupada told Guru-kripa Swami that he could chant in the mood of the Siksastakam.

We especially remember SB 10.47.63.

Chanting clearly with our lips purifies the earth,

Chanting also with mental attention purifies the sky,

Chanting also with meaning purifies heaven, Goloka?

Enough people chanting like that, purifying the mental atmosphere and then very difficult for people to think demoniac thoughts.

Some of our ideas.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!

Please let us know your thoughts on the matter.

😃

HpS/ASA

¡Hare Krsna! Querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis rendidas reverencias.

Todas las Glorias sean a nuestro muy exaltado Fundador-Acarya Srila Prabhupada y todas las Glorias sean a su trascendental ejército.

Deseo que al recibir la presente se encuentre muy bien. Le agradezco de todo corazón, por los esfuerzos que realiza para involucrarnos en la trascendental misión de Srila Prabhupada.🙏

🌻

Por mi parte, por la misericordia sin causa de Srila Prabhupada y sus genuinos seguidores (como usted), hemos podido ser fieles a nuestros votos de iniciación 16 rondas mínimo / 4 principios (Mantenemos algunos apegos a comer en exceso, estamos tratando de mejorar cada vez) 🙈 🙊

Luego de su visita a México, creo que nuestro programa matutino ha mejorado un poco, ¡Gracias por el FMS, que alimenta nuestro entusiasmo! Mantenemos lectura regular de los libros de Srila Prabhupada y Regularmente escuchamos clases de Srila Prabhupada, de usted, Yadunandana Swami, Urmila Mataji y otros vaisnavas.

Continuamos estudiando el Bhaktivaibhava bajo la guía de SS Yadunandana Swami, la mayoría de nuestros compañeros de estudios son devotos muy experimentados y participativos, así que intentamos aprender de ellos. ¡Una y otra vez somos cautivados por el Srimad Bhagavatam! 🤓

Por otra parte, actualmente estoy trabajando con algunos amigos de la universidad y doy asesorías a jóvenes de preparatoria. Además, como es natural, he tenido algunas dificultades fuertes con este cuerpo, solo estoy atendiendo lo necesario e intento continuar. Dormir es realmente difícil, así que aprovecho para leer o cantar. También continuo con la psicoterapeuta, quien es una dama budista muy favorable a los devotos, conoce un poco de nuestra filosofía y me empuja a ser más seria en mi sadhana. Cuando volví a verla (después de que usted visitó México) ella quedo muy sorprendida por “el cambio”🤔, concluyó que “Conjuntar la psicoterapia más la conexión con la divinidad; puede sanar en un mes, lo que la psicoterapia por sí sola no lograría en años.” (En mi opinión, todo se debe únicamente a la misericordiosa intervención de Guru y vaisnavas).

Gurudeva actualmente estoy enfrentando un reto:

Una persona muy querida por mí se encuentra muy enferma y a pesar de la atención medica no se observa mejoría. Me siento muy asustada y frustrada por no poder ayudar. Me parece que ver sufrir a un ser querido es incluso más doloroso y aterrador que mi propia enfermedad. He estado tratando de refugiarme en los santos nombres, en oraciones a nuestras señorías y en el SB (especialmente 1.13) … De manera consciente entiendo que no hay nada que yo pueda hacer, sin embargo, emocionalmente es muy difícil para mí. ☹ Creo que este es el mismo reto que me ha perseguido en diferentes formas y que trata de enseñarme que yo no puedo proteger a nadie y que solo nuestro Señor es el Supremo Protector… Pero al observarme, me doy cuenta de lo mucho que me hace falta para rendirme verdaderamente a la voluntad de nuestro Señor. ☹

Querido Guru Maharaja, ese es el estado actual desde mi trinchera, por favor disculpe a esta tonta estudiante y muchas gracias por vuestra misericordia, que me mantiene viva y en la lucha.

Su aspirante a discípula.

Karuna-Sakti Devi Dasi 🙇🙇 🙇

I will do [Hare] Krsna! Dear Gurudeva, please accept my obeisances.

All Glories be to our highly exalted Founder-Acarya Srila Prabhupada and all Glories be to his transcendental army.

ASA/HpS - 💪

I hope that when you receive this letter you are very well. I thank him wholeheartedly for the efforts he makes to involve us in Srila Prabhupada's transcendental mission.🙏

🌻

For my part, by the causeless mercy of Srila Prabhupada and his genuine followers (such as you), we have been able to stick to our initiation vows 16 rounds minimum / 4 principles (We maintain some attachments to overeating, we are trying to improve each once) 🙈 🙊

HpS - Exactly the same for us, word for word!

After your visit to Mexico, I think our morning program has improved a bit, Thank you for the FMS, which fuels our enthusiasm! We keep regular reading of Srila Prabhupada's books and regularly listen to lectures from Srila Prabhupada, from you, Yadunandana Swami, Urmila Mataji and other Vaisnavas.

We continue to study Bhaktivaibhava under the guidance of HH Yadunandana Swami, most of our fellow students are very experienced and participative devotees so we try to learn from them. Time after time we are captivated by Srimad Bhagavatam! 🤓

On the other hand, I am currently working with some friends from the university and I give advice to high school youth. Also, of course, I have had some strong difficulties with this body, I am only attending to what is necessary and I try to continue. Sleeping is really difficult, so I take the opportunity to read or sing.

I also continue with the psychotherapist, who is a Buddhist lady very favorable to devotees, she knows a little about our philosophy and pushes me to be more serious in my sadhana.

When I saw her again (after you visited Mexico) she was very surprised by "the change" 🤔, she concluded that "Combining psychotherapy plus the connection with divinity; it can heal in a month, which psychotherapy alone would not achieve in years.” (In my opinion, everything is solely due to the merciful intervention of Guru and vaisnavas).

Gurudeva I am currently facing a challenge:

A person who is very dear to me is very sick and despite medical attention, no improvement is observed. I feel very scared and frustrated that I can't help. It seems to me that watching a loved one suffer is even more painful and scary than my own illness. I have been trying to take refuge in the holy names, in prayers to our lordships and in the SB (especially 1.13)… I consciously understand that there is nothing I can do, however, emotionally it is very difficult for me. ☹ I think this is the same challenge that has haunted me in different ways and tries to teach me that I can't protect anyone and that only our Lord is the Supreme Protector... But looking at myself, I realize how much it makes me I need to truly surrender to the will of our Lord. ☹

HpS - Arjuna had not only to see Bhisma and Drona die, he had to kill them! We cannot appreciate how much he was attached to them, being born in these impersonal, industrial cultures.

Dear Guru Maharaja, that is the current state from my trench, please excuse this foolish student and thank you very much for your mercy, which keeps me alive and fighting.

HpS - Arjuna realized that Krsna was a better friend to Bhisma and Drona than he: https://vedabase.io/es/library/bg/5/29/

Therefore, he just tried to help Krsna in His plan for these loved ones.

Similar situation in First Canto when Dhrtarastra leaves, and Yuddhisthira laments!

https://vedabase.io/es/library/sb/1/13/38/

If you can read the dialog to the end of the Chapter! In some sense we felt that we lament like Yuddhisthira about how we can't help others, but Narada Muni is noting that this is foolish. We are lamenting over the unfortunate situation of others but are so silly that we don't realize the same thing is happing to us, so how can we help anyone else.

Best we can do is understand why Krsna is doing these things and then use our little capacity to help Him, no?

Thank you!

Her would-be disciple of hers.

HpSwami - So, very, very, very nice to hear from you. It really causes us pain at heart that we cannot stay in touch with family of our first disciple, Raktaka Das!

We think about trying to contact you all also, but we have such limited resources. Even answering letters on Whatsapp is limited. We can only do a few letters weekly.

If you can write to this Blog then it is more practical.

There are at least 40-devotees, friends and admirers of Swami Raktaka, who are probably very happy to read this.

🌴 We are now in our Base Camp: 902 Hillcrest Dr., Nashville, Tennessee 37129, USA.

https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS999US999&sxsrf=APwXEdclHUdUwywjNzNbOyR2SwV_1_ckJQ:1687286701282&q=google+map+902+Hillcrest+Dr.,+Nashville,+Tennessee+37129,+USA&spell=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj03drjwNL_AhWRlGoFHRGPDXkQkeECKAB6BAgHEAE

Our body is 75-years old. We really suspect we have about a year and a half more before it is finished. We are very happy! We are consolidating all the preaching we have done with Raktaka Das et al in the Universities etc. around the world.

What has happened with Pavan Kumar, Srimati Silky et al.

Thank you.
