Letters to the editor

Dear Maharaj,

PAMHO AGTSP!

Dear Maharaj, we think of you daily, how can we chant better 16 rounds daily, do our duties better, become a bit happier so we can serve our husband better. He has told cooking and cleaning will not help our relationship. He has informed us leaving him alone and when he rejects our affection, not going mad, will better help our relationship. Again extra marital actions on his part. We felt like a hole in our heart. Tried to offer love to amend the heartbreak, but become worse upon being violently rejected. It’s like a situation of an unwanted child born to a mother who hasn’t accepted she’s now a mother and every time the child needs her, she freaks out on the child.

Upon rejection, we lost our mind that all our efforts and still the relationship does not become better, and we almost left. But somehow still here. We try to cook as service to you, Krsna and him 🙏. We know we are very flawed, our service is very poor quality, but all we can do daily is show up and try again with enthusiasm, determination and patience (we very very much lack in this). Still struggling to figure out how to have sane varnashram situation, decent sadhana, wife duties that pleasing to husband, and some activities to keep us busy after our attempts on the above.

We miserably fail daily in our very unpalatable service. We just hope Lord Krsna sees our effort instead of the quality of our poorly done service 🙏. So unqualified, yet because of your mercy He may still glance on it 😇 🙏. The heart feels happy today feeling your love and affection for us 🤗. Simply living for the day when I can give you some news that will make you happy with us, proud of us 🥲.

your aspiring servant,

Yajnaseni

HpS - Hare Krsna.

AgtSP.

Trying to put your letter in perspective we can understand.

One thing that comes to mind is the situation of Mandodhari, the wife of Ravana. An extreme situation. Along with Sita she is considered an example of a chaste women for the entire universe,

but Prabhupada commented that we are not on that level and it is Kali yuga not Treta yuga, and if a wife has genuine problems with a husband who is fallen from a spiritual or even a human standard then she should not try to imitate these Vedic ladies of earlier ages but place some distance between herself and her husband and take shelter of the devotees.

As we know he recommended that solution for the wife of Karandhara Das in Los Angeles: She live separate from him and situate herself in practical, nice, service in the Los Angeles, New Dvaraka, community, and pray for her husbands adjustment.

Again we are Sannyasis at a distance.

Use our perspective, but also develop other counselors, and as you describe your efforts you will conquer this situation and come out with assets that will never fail you again in the future.

We want to wake up.

Your esteemed husband wrote to us a short letter also, and we answered as best we could, basically repeating what we said before about divorce.

Basically the same comments that we just made above, and wrote before in great detail.

It is almost 8PM.

A few more letters and then we must rest our old donkey.

Thank you!!!

As you describe the situation you are a very great soul.

Maybe in you next life you can date the role of Mandodari!

😂 😂😂😂😂

HpS - ASA.

Hare krishna gurudev este es mi reporte mensual he estado cantando mis 4 rondas diarias ya que los estudios me quitan la gran mayoria de mi tiempo pero las 4 que canto las canto lo mas sinceramente posible.

Tambien queria preguntarle si usted cree que me alcance el tiempo para iniciarme.

Estoy haciendo servicio en el templo junto a mi mama y deseo pedirle sus bendiciones para continuar teniendo el deseo de realizar servicio devocional.

Su sirviente jaganitho.

Hare krishna, gurudev this is my monthly report. i have been chanting my 4 daily rounds as studies take up most of my time but the 4 that i sing, i sing as sincerely as possible.

I also wanted to ask you if you think I have enough time to get initiated.

HpS - It is not a matter of time. As soon as you are following the process for one year and have authorization from the ISKCON authorities you can be initiated! Jaya.

I am doing temple service together with my mom and I want to ask for her blessings to continue having the desire to perform devotional service.

His servant jaganitho.

HpS - Thank you . In our old age and inherent stupidity we cannot remember your form, character or pastimes.

Please enlighten us!

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP, PAMHO

I have just read that you are packing ¡¡¡¡ It is incredible how time pass so fast ¡¡¡

I was reflecting on the relationship that I have with you Gurudeva, and I guess it is more mature. I do not need to have your physical association to feel that we are connected. It is all a part of the big Mrdanga ¡¡¡¡ Sankirtan is the center. Nevertheless, it is still important to go and visit your very good self like I did ¡¡¡¡

Nityananda Prabhu always gives me a special mercy. This time I just asked to enter to the altar and touch His lotus feet and the authorities asked me to perform the Raja Bhoga artik ¡¡¡¡¡ I said yes without hesitation.

HpS - ASA --- Amazing!!!

I have to confess that I was a little bit sad, because I was meditating on Nityananda from Wilson. Some devotees were posting photos of Him, but we can see at least me that His sight is not the same. So I felt a little frustrated due to the authorities did not allow me to help with Their painting . I guess is Krsna's plan. Besides that I feel kind of nostalgic due to the fact that I am not going to be able to see You for a very long time. My life has changed a lot. Krsna is so merciful that allows me to have Your association and good devotees friends like Palika, Patraka, Jambavan and so forth

I guess I just want to say thank you for everything, for being so patient. Please never forget if any time you felt that I performed a little tiny sincere service for Your very good self

May Lord Nityananda always bless You

Trying to be your disciple

HpS - There may be a global catastophy at any point and we may be unable to leave Peru and we may be stuck here for the next five years.

Ha! Ha!

Who knows what will happen, but we are all sitting in the same cinema hall watching each other's puppets on the screen but if stop watching that only and come to the real platform we can have direct contact in our permament forms.

From WhatsApp:

Hare Krishna Dandavat pranam,

I was hospitalised on 16th feb due to kidney stone. Luckily the stone came down on the track and next day it came out. Then my sugar level came up to 700. In the meantime I got throat infection. Medical treatment is going on. Guruji, actually it is Maya sansar duties on the other hand I fought the yamaduths in my dream and they tried to pull me to yamaraj. Then bhagavan Vishnu's bhaktas stoped the yamaduths and sent me again to martalok for further continuation of Maya Marta karma. It all happens with the help of Your guru kripa. I'm physically weak from one month but not due to Corona. I have tested negative. Please give me strength to serve guruparampara, gaurangamahaprabhu and my radhakrishna.

HpSwami- ASA

AgtSP. Paoho. Thank you for the news. We are having similar experiences here.

Did you offer Hari kirtan to the Yama/Visnu Duttas?

🙂

You are in the hospital to preach!

Just published the "Kapi Dhvaja". Hope it is useful for you.

More Sankirtan reports!

Hare Krishna Maharaja!

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Switzerland is a crazy country when you look at the atheistic and materialistic peoples lifestyle.

i recently had some experiences with some old friends and family members. i realized that it's not the same with our relationship like before.

But i still want to stay in touch with my old friends. And when i have the opportunity, i try to cook prasadam for them.

HpS - Yes!!! If someone is nice that means that they have some KC, even if it is not so direct.

I read in the Upadeśāmṛta in verse-2. It mentions:

   A person's devotional service becomes spoiled if he becomes too much involved in the following six activities one of them....--> associating with worldly-minded persons who are not interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness

But I know it is very difficult to avoid this, especially when working and living with materialistic people together, because there are for the moment not other options.

HpS - Krsna understands that and will give you extra help. Also, He will move you into a better community.

As much as possible give them Radha's association rather than taking Maya's association from them.

I try to visit the devotees as often as possible in the temple, for have a good asociación.

HpS - Super!!!

Expect rapid progress!

Hare krsna querido Gurudeva, pamho, este es mi reporte después de unas semanas de reflexión y aceptación de mi destino.

Empezamos a recuperar el sadhana algunos días nos levantamos a las 4am, otras a las 6 am y otra a las 7am, estamos cantando 12 a 14 rondas, gayatris estamos cantando 3 veces al dia o aveces 2 veces, recuperamos nuestra lectura del srimad bagavatam canto 3. 31. 28, por miericordia de krsna tenemos gusto por leer el bagavatam dia a dia, ahora seguimos nuestra lectura y todavía no recupero los ekadasis, adorando a gaura nitay y deidad de nrshinja, ofreciendo alimentos con tulasi.

En el dia trabajo en una empresa de telecomunicaciones, el ambiente no es estresante y el sueldo tampoco es bueno jajaja, pero me siento tranquila, mi trabajo queda 5 minutos de mi casa, compañeros karmis son agradables. Para una chica viviendo sola el sueldo no es malo. Le comento que estoy terminando de construir un pequeño departamento que me dio mi padre para poder alquilarlo

Estoy estudiando ingles por las noches, estoy pensando irme a vivir lejos de perú, mi primera opción es india, a esta edad, necesito entrar a otra etapa de mi vida, formar una familia, tener mucha asociación de devotos, estar en un lugar sagrado. Aquí en esta ciudad no tengo asociación de devotos, he pensando estar en perú solo este año.

En realidad no tengo el deseo de estar en perú, por eso necesito terminar la construcción de mi casa de lima y alquilarlo para poder tener un ingreso cuando me vaya a otro país.

Actualmente krsna me envió una ayuda muy linda de mi hermana espiritual, mantendré en reserva su nombre, en verdad ella me esta ayudando a recuperar mi vida espiritual y por ella me inspiré a traer a mis deidades a esta ciudad donde actualmente vivo.

Me estoy refugiando en mi hermana espiritual, ella es muy buena, ahora no me siento sola, me siento como si prabhupada me quiere proteger y ayudar y por eso estoy tomando esta ayuda.

Bueno querido gurudeva, gracias por su asociación, mi promesa es mejorar el sadhana y las 16 rondas y completar los gayatris, leer bagavatam. Le estaré informando en las sgtes semanas sobre mi avance en conciencia de krsna

Hare krsna dear Gurudeva, pamho, this is my report after a few weeks of reflection and acceptance of my destiny.

We start to recover the sadhana some days we get up at 4am, others at 6am and another at 7am, we are chanting 12 to 14 rounds, gayatris we are chanting 3 times a day or sometimes 2 times, we recover our reading of the srimad bagavatam I sing 3. 31. 28, by the mercy of krsna we like to read the bagavatam day by day, now we continue our reading and still haven't recovered the ekadasis, worshiping gaura nitay and deity of nrshinja, offering food with tulasi.

 During the day I work in a telecommunications company, the environment is not stressful and the salary is not good either, hahaha, but I feel calm, my work is 5 minutes from my house, fellow karmis are nice. For a girl living alone the salary is not bad. I tell him that I am finishing building a small apartment that my father gave me to be able to rent it.

I am studying English at night, I am thinking of going to live far from Peru, my first option is India, at this age, I need to enter another stage of my life, start a family, have a lot of association of devotees, be in a sacred place . Here in this city I have no association of devotees, I have thought of being in Peru only this year.

Actually I don't have the desire to be in Peru, so I need to finish the construction of my house in Lima and rent it to be able to have an income when I go to another country.

Currently Krsna sent me a very nice help from my spiritual sister, I will keep her name in reserve, in truth she is helping me to recover my spiritual life and because of her I was inspired to bring my deities to this city where I currently live.

I am taking refuge in my god sister, she is very good, now I don't feel alone, I feel as if prabhupada wants to protect me and help me and that is why I am taking this help.

Well dear gurudeva, thanks for her association, my promise is to improve sadhana and 16 rounds and complete gayatris, read bagavatam. I will be informing you in the next few weeks about my advancement in krsna consciousness

HpS - 🙂 🙂  .🙂.  🙂 🙂 Very nice. The root of everything is Hari Kirtan, Japa. The more we occupy in that the more our Varna and Ashrama situations will become clear. Is so nice to read with other devotees. We read every day here morning and evening.

For two days it has been Varaha from the Third Canto.

Of course, it is very natural to discuss the Purports.

Get more and more senior and junior devotees in your circle of hearing and chanting!!!

At the time of death there is only you and Krsna

Learn to live alone with Him now.

He is your only lover.

We wait for your next report.

Expect miracles.
