Letters to the editor

AgtSP. Pamho.

Simplemente quiero agradecerle por permitirme ser un miembro de ISKCON, por permitirme conocer a Prabhupada y el movimiento de Sri Caitanya Maha Prabhu. Gracias infinitas por aceptar mi naturaleza y ocuparme en servicio a Krishna con mis defectos e impurezas.

Gracias por darme un gusto por la japa y por el Srimad Bhagavatam.

Lo conocí a usted en Mayo de 1997 en Nrisimha Caturdasi, y usted se acercó a mí para darme las gracias, eso cambió mi corazón y mi vida para siempre, ahora soy yo el que le está eterna e infinitamente agradecido.

Usted nos enseñó la disciplina, el sadhana y el gusto por la practica matutina, es este gusto lo que literalmente ha salvado mi vida.

No se como expresar mi gratitud y mis mas profundos sentimientos de amor y felicidad con palabras, solo decirle que me he vuelto feliz, y que ya son varios años donde mi felicidad no tiene altos y bajos, puedo decir que disfruto de la conciencia de Krishna de manera estable y abierta, gracias infinitas! Simplemente gracias por su paciencia y tolerancia para conmigo y todos sus discípulos.

Este año cumpliré 20 años de matrimonio y mi intención es comenzar mi entrenamiento y preparación para Vanaprastha. Quiero que sepa que nunca he olvidado ninguna de sus instrucciones y que me estoy esforzando por cumplir con todos mis deberes como discípulo.

Nunca en estos 25 años de que lo conozco y acepto como mi mentor y maestro he dejado de intentar de propagar la conciencia de Krishna, y quisiera no solo agradecerle por esto, si no que también decirle que esto es gracias a su existencia e inspiración. Gracias por existir, gracias por inspirarnos a ser mejores personas y mejores sirvientes, gracias eternas por tomarnos de la mano y empujarnos hacia Prabhupada y Krishna.

Mas allá de la distancia y las diferencias debe de saber que en cualquier lugar, tiempo y circunstancia yo seré siempre su sirviente agradecido de todo corazón y un entregado empleado de ISKCON y del movimiento de Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

Gracias Infinitas !!!

Su casi humilde sirviente Madhumangala das.

AgtSP. Pamho.

I just want to thank you for allowing me to be a member of ISKCON, for allowing me to meet Prabhupada and the Sri Caitanya Maha Prabhu movement. Thank you infinitely for accepting my nature and occupying myself in the service of Krishna with my defects and impurities.

Thank you for giving me a taste of japa and Srimad Bhagavatam.

I met you in May 1997 at Nrisimha Caturdasi, and you approached me to thank me, that changed my heart and my life forever, now I am the one who is eternally and infinitely grateful to you.

You taught us discipline, sadhana and a taste for morning practice, it is this taste that has literally saved my life.

I don't know how to express my gratitude and my deepest feelings of love and happiness with words, just to tell you that I have become happy, and that it has been several years where my happiness has no ups and downs, I can say that I enjoy Krishna consciousness in a stable and open way, infinite thanks! Simply thank you for your patience and tolerance towards me and all your disciples.

This year I will celebrate 20 years of marriage and my intention is to start my training and preparation for Vanaprastha. I want you to know that I have never forgotten any of your instructions and that I am endeavoring to fulfill all my duties as a disciple.

Never in these 25 years of knowing and accepting you as my mentor and teacher have I ever stopped trying to spread Krishna consciousness, and I would like to not only thank you for this, but also tell you that this is thanks to your existence and inspiration. Thank you for existing, thank you for inspiring us to be better people and better servants, eternal thanks for taking us by the hand and pushing us towards Prabhupada and Krishna.

Beyond distance and differences, you should know that in any place, time and circumstance I will always be your wholeheartedly grateful servant and devoted employee of ISKCON and Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's movement.

Infinite thanks !!!

His almost humble servant Madhumangala das.

The Sun is at 3.15PM in Sta. Eulalia, Peru.

We finally had some sunshine today.

We try to do all of our service but we make mistakes.

For one hour we have been updating the disciple list in our Guru-tattva file on the web page. We had to find all the initiation letters, dates of birth and civil names and dates of initiations.

Tooks some time but we got everything except for Nandini Devi Dasi's Recommendation letter, and date of birth.

We think it was sent but we cannot find it.

If anyone has it or knows where it is please contact us. Thank you.

Krsna knows everything.

Continuing the discussion from https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/13061/, DSD gives translation and some logic.

"Hare krishna Gurudev. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet. AGTSP, GURUDEV AND GOURANGA. 1st praying implies we bow down under our gurudev's lotus feet, our gurudev is so kind to distribute the spiritual knowledge in foreign country in this kaliyuge means present age. OR Our Gurudev is so kind to distribute the Prabhupadas spiritual instruction or teaching throughout the entire world in this kaliyuge means present age. Simply to say, GURUDEV we feel pleasure and egoless bowing down to your kind feet and praying as said. So to have one common and uniform pray, i requested to choice one out of the two. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet Gurudev. Forgive me if find any mistake."

HpSwami - We feel very deeply like one of Srila Prabhupada's "America" Sannyasis.

We are doing our job in an emergency situation, and any illumination of us should be minimal, like the standard pranam mantra in ISKCON or informal.

Such things done in our presence like trying to wash our feet make us feel from uncomfortable to completely panicked eg. run away and hide for one year.

What do you think?

Can post comments in Blog?



Thank you.

Whatsapp, Sriman Divya-svarupa Das et al:

"Hare krishna. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet Gurudev. We , your devotee belongs to imphal and silchar, do pray to your lotus feet, using the following..

Namo om Vishnu padaye krishna prasthayo bhutale srimate Hanumat presak swamy niti namine, namaste Hanumat presak swamy, namo attyanto dayaluye, kaliyuge pachyatta deshe, Gandharva bidya pradayene. Or. Namo om Vishnu padaye krishna prasthayo bhutale, srimate Hanumat presak swamy nitti namine, namaste Hanumat presak swamy, namo attyanto dayaluye, kaliyuge pashyatta deshe, prabhupadas losatbani pracharaniya tayatte. Gurudev, kindly clearify, which one of the above two prayer is your choice. Dandavat pranam unto your lovely feet. Hare krishna."

HpS - We do not feel qualified to have any specific prayers glorifying us in Sanskrita. The basic prayer that is offered to Prabhupada and Srila Bh. Siddhanta seems to be more than enough.

What is the English translation of the prayers?

Who write them?

What evidence do they offer to justify them.

Hare Krishna Gurudeva! pamho, agtSP!!

I 've just read that you were felling a little sick, hope you recover soon. I have not reported for some months, but I always keep following the blog.

HpS - We had flu symptoms, but heart and respirtion fine. Mostly muscle aches. Covid test results were negative, but... guess you read. with no symptoms, pre bolivia flight results were positive, twice.

How ridiculuous, funny, insane. Great chaos in our schedule, but still no symptoms.

I read here that you were looking for translators to translate waves of devotion into Spanish, maybe I could help with that if it is posible, who should i talk to?

HpS - We just posted a report. Set the Category filter to Special Category B and it will show up. It is a great project.

2021 was a long year of quite a bit of change. I just sent you in the annual report about Sadhana. In general, it was a good year with a beautiful company of devotees and carrying out beautiful programs especially focused on children. We are several families with children around here.

The other day when you were commenting about the idea of ​​traveling on a charter with devotees to Spain + India, I was very inspired by the idea of ​​being able to go, and also help you in some way.

HpS - At the current moment I feel like 15% in control of my life and schedule. It seems that Krsna may want us to all to meet in Spain for the last part of September and then go to Kolkata, Manipur, Delhi VRNDAVANA for Kartika. Of course, this is all part of the movie, so Krsna would pay and we work.!!

I hope that at some point I can reach the height of becoming your disciple.

HpS - You are a challenge to me of being a disciple of Srila Prabhupada!

y.s, Madhavendra Puri Das

PD: I attach some photos of a very very nice mantra and meditation workshop I was giving in the Ratha Yatra of Buenos Aires in the end of November, and a closing the year Sound Therapy Group.

HpS - While Jagat guru Das is here we hope to start packaging all this for NIOS/ASA.

V.P Offering:

Dear Gurudeva,

Pamho, AgtSP!!!

On this day of your Vyasa Puja I simply want to thank you for always setting the practical example of Srila Prabhupada's teachings.

Always fixed, stable, loving, a practical example of a spiritually realized person.

Example of how through Vaidhi Bhakti with effort and full dedication to Krishna the highest states of consciousness can be reached.

Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your personal selflessness and your constant desire to help others. Your disciples and humanity in general through different ways of approaching the same message, the message of Krishna consciousness in a way that different types of public can take it.

The feeling is one of full gratitude, since I feel that I give very little in relation to what I receive.

I pray and ask for your blessing and mercy so that I can become your disciple and move forward following your footsteps.

your servant, Madhavendra Puri Das

HpS - 😬 What you see is what Srila Prabhupada has done with a lump of mud.

(Traducido con google)

Hare Krishna Maharaja.

Please accept my obeisances at your feet.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All glories to you.

Damián from Córdoba, Argentina greets you here.

Very happy to have been able to have his association in his Vyasapuja by zoom and to see the beautiful party that his disciples and well-wishers organized.

I had the desire to go to see him in Peru, but due to my lack of qualification and sincerity, I did not decide. I knew it was quite an important opportunity, since you will no longer return to South America, but one way or another I wasted it, and that had me quite disturbed.

This December was a beautiful month for me because I participated very actively in Srila Prabhupada's marathon. I decided to distribute as many books as I could, going out every day morning and evening. Like a sadhana. To put my worthless person at the service of giving Srila Prabhupada's books. Sankirtan is something I like to do ...

Thanks to you, and thanks to Your Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, I had a beautiful marathon where I felt happy and blessed. Thank you.

I am aware that without the blessings of the guru and Krishna we are powerless.

One way or another, I was able to distribute a lot of books in December. And I want to dedicate it to him as an offering at his feet.

In total there were 952 books (including 43 Bhagavad Gita).

Regarding sadhana, following the 4 principles and since 2020 I am chanting the 16 rounds. I was a little behind with the rounds in the months of November and December, but I was writing down the debt. I am making up the rounds that are overdue.

I had several dreams about you. The other day again. Thanks for showing up, even though I don't deserve it at all ...

I am very happy because I spoke with Mitravinda devi dasi and Panca Tattva prabhu about my initiation. I took refuge in you a year and a half ago. in May 2020.

I have the disciples course done in 2020 and the letter of recommendation from Param Padam prabhu as a reference for the Cordoba yatra, mother Campakalata dd (his disciple) and Ananta Sayana dd. Also authorization from the Buenos Aires temple authorities. I have already sent everything to Panca Tattva prabhu.

I am doing Bhakti sastri with Param Padam prabhu.

Doing service for the local yatra of Traslasierra, Córdoba, in association with devotees.

Reading Srimad Bhagavatam in joint study with the devotees here, we have already finished chant 4.

This year I want to be more regulated with my sadhana.

Thank you for everything, thank you for everything, thank you for everything, from the bottom of my heart. Because I feel that you are present, just like Srila Prabhupada.

A tender greeting.

Bhakta Damián from Córdoba, Argentina.

HpS - Thank you for the news.

Regular programa during the Brahma muhurta?? Very enlivening letter. You are a leader for all of us!

Please use the Priority Code n Kapi Dhvaja to get attention of our Secretaries.

Seems you are ready for intitiation if you have regular morning program.

Even second initiation. Haw! Haw! Hare!

.........................................................................................

Hare Krishna Maharaja.

Por favor acepte mis reverencias a sus pies.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Todas las glorias a usted. 

Lo saluda aquí Damián de Córdoba, Argentina.

Muy contento por haber podido tener su asociación en su Vyasapuja por zoom y de ver la hermosa fiesta que organizaron sus discípulos y bienquerientes. 

Tuve el deseo de ir a verlo a Perú, pero por mi falta de cualificación y sinceridad no me decidí. Sabía que era una oportunidad bastante importante, ya que usted ya no volverá a Sudamérica, pero de una manera u otra la desperdicié, y eso me tuvo bastante perturbado. 

Este diciembre fue un lindo mes para mí porque participé muy activamente de la maratón de Srila Prabhupada. Me decidí a distribuir todos los libros que pudiera, salir todos los días mañana y tarde. Como un sadhana. Poner mi inservible persona al servicio de dar los libros de Srila Prabhupada. Sankirtan es algo que me gusta hacer... 

Gracias a usted, y gracias a Su Divina Gracia Srila Prabhupada, tuve un hermoso maratón donde me sentí feliz y bendecido. Gracias.

Soy consciente que sin las bendiciones del guru y de Krishna somos impotentes.

De una manera u otra, pude distribuir muchos libros en diciembre. Y quiero dedicárselo como ofrenda a sus pies.

En total fueron 952 libros (entre los que se incluyen 43 Bhagavad Gita). 

Con respecto al sadhana, siguiendo los 4 principios y desde el 2020 estoy cantando las 16 rondas. Me atrasé un poco con las rondas en los meses de noviembre y diciembre, pero fui anotando la deuda. Estoy recuperando las rondas atrasadas.

Tuve varios sueños con usted. El otro día de nuevo. Gracias por aparecer, a pesar de que no lo merezco en absoluto... 

Estoy muy feliz porque hablé con Mitravinda devi dasi y Panca Tattva prabhu acerca de mi iniciación. Tomé refugio en usted hace un año y medio. En mayo de 2020.

Tengo el curso de discípulos hecho en 2020 y la carta de recomendación de Param Padam prabhu como referente del yatra de Córdoba, madre Campakalata dd (su discípula) y Ananta Sayana dd. También autorización de autoridades del templo de Buenos Aires. Ya le envié todo a Panca Tattva prabhu.

Estoy cursando Bhakti sastri con Param Padam prabhu. Haciendo servicio para el yatra local de Traslasierra, Córdoba, en asociación con devotos. Leyendo el Srimad Bhagavatam en estudio conjunto con los devotos de aquí, ya terminamos el canto 4. 

Este año quiero ser más regulado con mi sadhana.

Gracias por todo, gracias por todo, gracias por todo, de corazón.

Porque siento que usted está presente, al igual que Srila Prabhupada... 

Un saludo afectuoso.

Bhakta Damián de Córdoba, Argentina.
