Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva:

AGTSP

PAMHO

The adventure of Sta Eulalia and the movie is just beginning ¡¡¡¡

It was so refreshing to see you again. Thanks for all your mercy, association, insights, gifts, etc

Today I had a very busy day as a professor in 2 universities such a lot of material to be prepared and corrected pffff. I have classes until 10: 30 pm. So I totally agree to your suggestion that I have to work only until 50 years old. That's it ¡¡¡¡

The university insisted that all their professors join an " International Neuropsychology and Education Internship" It is pretty demanding but also very compelling.

As we were discussing about my trip to Houston I am attaching some pictures that maybe you find it useful. I am chatting with Subhra Mataji. She has some suggestions about your next Sri Vyasa Puja, January 3rd 2022. I will go to Sta Eulalia on October 7th. So I hope to have the opportunity to talk to You at least 20 minutes about this topic.

Thanks in advance

See you in FMP

Trying to be your disciple

HpS - Thank you for using the FMP, Blog, Priority Code! Today it was "Hawaii". Haw. Haw. Haw. A sinister way to get devotees to join the FMP!.

😈

Haw! Haw! Hare!

Your news is very inspiring for us. We realize that we are small people in this academic atmosphere in many ways, so we are trying to find our way to help others in preaching in the academic atmosphere.

We are just investigating this Sta. Alelelia Ashrama. It is a nice name, nice Sta! So far is very good facility offered by Krsna. Of course a large part of it is to arrange for freedom from pandemic and unknown serial killers by living in a village.

For those who want to enter in the village and live without masks, there needs to be proper health and quarantine, no?

What is that?

Your travel in taxis, not busses, no?

Are they certified safe?

Other wise it is so nice here that we can sit outside in the many nice patios at a safe distance, even without masks, and talk in the swift breezes!

Nueva asoka van, Ki Jai!

Srila Prabhupada's Sankirtan Ki Jai.

The photos are very nice, but need captions, explanations. I guess we can download them.

Hare Krsna Guru Mharaja.

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada!.

Espero que haya tenido un buen viaje a Perú.

Escribo para reportarme.

Clases de SB en Vaishnavas Care

Estamos en la recta final del curso BVB, del 2° canto.

Comenzamos un nuevo y último "Curso de Discípulos" para que la nueva profesora se pueda entrenar. Tenemos 20 estudiantes, muy entusiastas!!!.

Pienso en preparar un nuevo curso Bhakti Sastri para el próximo año. Espero poder lograrlo.

Jagannatha Caran continúa con su servicio en la administración y su trabajo.

Las deidades ya están en el templo desde Radhastami.

Unas devotas están haciendo una pintura muy linda en el templo. Le envío fotos.

Sukadeva está listo para rendir su examen libre para tercer grado.

Indira está asistiendo a su escuela de lenguaje. Siempre muy entusiasta.

Gurudev, espero que éste pequeño reporte lo encuentre bien.

Muchas gracias por todo Guru Maharaja.

HpS - Thank you for your report and the news of everyone. First our service is regulated but then we start to see specific things that Krsna needs and to be in His confidence, no?

Few hours ago we arrived in Sta. Aulelia, New Ashokavan. So far is good place.

Now we will do Gaura Arati Kirtan.

When we chant we are connected.

TLGASP!!

Mi querido Gurudeva

Por favor acepte usted mis humildes y respetuosas reverencias, ¿Cómo esta Ud.?, ¿Su salud va bien?

Que gusto poder comunicarme ahora con Usted, por favor perdone mis ofensas.

Cuanto desafío presenta Krsna en la vida, y aún así, es cierto es muy misericordioso, es indudable que ama a sus hijos.

Y por añadidura, Krsna, nos manda un representante suyo, el maestro espiritual, quien es infinitamente amable.

Que Krsna lo proteja Gurudeva, cuídese, cuídese mucho por favor. Es muy bueno tenerlo a usted.

Hare Krsna Rama!!!

Jaya Gurudeva

Su discípula.

My dear Gurudeva

Please accept my humble and respectful obeisances. How are you? Is your health doing well?

HpS - So much time has passed and no news from you or your family! 😀 For our age our health is very good. AGTSP! We are in La Perla, Callao and tomorrow go to stay for six months in Sta Aulelia.

What a pleasure to be able to communicate with you now, please forgive my offenses.

How much challenge Krsna presents in life, and yet it is true that he is very merciful, it is undoubted that she loves her children.

And furthermore, Krsna sends us a representative of His, the spiritual master, who is infinitely kind.

May Krsna protect you Gurudeva, take care of yourself, please take good care of yourself. It is very good to have you.

Hare Krsna Rama !!!

Jaya Gurudeva

His disciple.

HpS - How is you daily Japa? Other practices of Srila Prabhupada's yoga? Relishing reading his books?

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !All glories to HH Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaj!

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj. Please accept our humble obeisances at Your lotus feet.

HpS - AGTSP! We have lettuce feet now, but maybe you can see our Svarupa, and its feet.

Thank you Guru maharaj for Your kind mercy. We started reading BG with a group of young girls every evening since the last 2 weeks. They are from different parts of India and they are such a great source of inspiration for me. They are chanting every morning through zoom platform. Two of them are from Manipur, one is pursuing Medicine and the other, Law. They come to temple on Sundays. Last Sunday both of them took Srila Prabhupada Lilamrita. Thank you...thank you ..thank you Guru Maharaj ..for this immense mercy.

We continue with our regular Sunday BG classes with HG Ramanuja Das , from 4pm to 6pm , nice study group with about 20 serious devotees, some aspiring to take initiation. We pray to Srila Prabhupada and Guru maharaj that we become Your servant always....if only Guru Maharaj allows ....hurt, wounded, lost,fallen....let it be....but a fighter for You always....and even if defeated ...let me fall at Your lotus feet forever.....again and again!

Still at Canto 4 SB chapter 14....so relevant with the modern times....king on one side ...thieves and rogues on the other side ,exploiting the ones in the middle!!!!

We wait eagerly for Your reply dear Guru Maharaj,

Your ignorant servant always,

Sarad Gaurangi DD

HpS - Jaya!!! Imagine when all those girls, people, become as advanced and occupied in Sankirtan as you are now. They will enlighten the hearts of so many people.

Next we will look for the letters from Isana Das. Please see what he has to say about Manipuri preaching. We hope we can become absorbed in Manipuri Sankirtan.

H. H. B. S. Damodara Swami, Ki Jaya!!!

Hare Krishna

Respected Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

Thank you so much Maharaj for the reply. It is always inspiring to read your words. Although I am insignificant, you are always available to encourage and guide us. I am unable to read all the posts, but at least few I read and get updates. You and your scholarly disciples/ friends/ team are offering a great service in the mission of Srila Prabhupada.

I dont wish to burden you too much and try to keep things short. Because of my past experience, I have given up any thoughts of going to any project under a few devotees. Going to Kolkata reminds me of nightmares I had.

I had started an online credited course with BRC. However I could not submit the projects because of busy schedule. I don't know how much they would be agreeable to take me.

Regarding subject, since I am already pursuing a course in Sanskrit, I would like to complete the same, than entering a completely new arena-history. Krishna willing if I would be able to offer any service for NIOS, it would be my great fortune.

I am sorry for being unable to accept your suggestions and instructions.

I am very grateful to you for offering the expenses. Although I have no support from my temple authorities, there are few friends and well wishers who are supporting me. I hope if I serve the mission of Srila Prabhupada, he would not keep me deprived of my basic necessities.

Few days back I came to Patna. Here there is one devotee Mohan Prabhu, who joined here from Haldia, Kolkata shortly after I came. Sadhana is a little better. Also, few days back 2 brahmacharis from ISKCON Chowpatty came here. They are strongly suggesting that Patna has a huge potential for preaching, so tolerate the difficulties and focus on strong practice of Krishna Consciousness and preach, conduct courses on Gita. Actually a huge marvelous temple is coming up here, that too very much in the heart of the city. It is scheduled to be inaugurated on 14th December, 2021. After inauguration, a huge number of people are expected to visit temple. He suggested to preach together with Mohan Prabhu and there would be preaching explosion.

On the other hand, devotee who has a temple at a village near Sitamarhi is also arriving there on 13th September and do basic repairs and constructions to make it habitable. 2 devotees are also expected to stay there, so I would at least have some association.

And the temple president is asking to take start and take care of a center at Muzaffarpur and he would send some devotees there also. Muzaffarpur is a city in between Patna and Sitamarhi. In case he really starts any center there and offers financial support, I think there is no harm in preaching over there. So, now it appears that I have lost one place- Darbhanga to preach but three more opportunities have come up- Patna, Muzaffarpur and Sitamarhi.

I don't know how things will unfold but I did get some strength by association and encouragement of Chowpatty Brahmacharis- HG Rudranath Prabhu and HG Vrajaraja Priya Prabhu.

I seek your prayers, blessings and association (if you plan to come to India).

Please forgive my mistakes, shortcomings and offenses.

Your insignificant servant

HpS - AgtSP! Thank you for your letter!!! I have been feeling so bad that I have not been able to answer letters from wonderful devotees like your self.

Maybe you can see how much we have been struggling, struggling, struggling with all these diverse aspects of attention to disciples, body, weather, NIOS.

Krsna has been giving us many, many, undeserved opportunities for success in our little Sankirtan efforts and we hope we can show you more results soon.

Of course, we were thinking that it might be ideal for you and NIOS if you could work with the BRC, but we are super, super, happy to hear of the many opportunities that you have which may occupy your abilities to even more utility.

We heard that Bh. Siddhanta Maharaja would recommend Caitanya Caritamrt before Bhagavatam and BG to some people.

We find it is very useful in the beginning. There is so much modern lila in it, demonstrations of SB and BG.

Of course, the proper preaching books are different for different people.

Don't just try to distribute books, but make book distributors, no?

Then we can help the world even more!

Please send news after things become more clear or as we can be of help!!

Nitay Goura Premanande!! querido y recordado Gurudev,

por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias!!

TODAS LAS GLORIAS A SRILA PRABHUPADA!!

HpS/ASA - Pedimos disculpas por nuestra pereza al no responder antes, pero también ha habido una intensa presión con los viajes. Siempre somos tus sirvientes.

Nuevamente con problemas de comunicación, pues, no tengo wi-fi, ... Tengo tantas cosas que decirle, pero, sólo puedo ahorrarle su tiempo, y, decirle un informe concreto.

Hace más de 1 año y medio estaba próxima a viajar a MX, tenía mi boleto comprado, pero, por motivos de la pandemia, quedaron congelados los vuelos, .. el mes pasado la Aerolínea me comunicó que ya no podían alargar mi viaje y, tenía que realizarlo antes de que termine el año, ... justo cuando organize la fecha de viaje, me enteré que ud. viene a Perú, ... ya no pude cambiar la fecha, pues no dispongo de Laxmi para cambiar la fecha otra vez..... mi viaje está orientado a atender mi salud que en estos 3 años que llevo en Perú me fué imposible atender, ...

al parecer el tumor de la garganta ha avanzado pues, tengo varias complicaciones que van desde el cuello, clavícula y pulmón izquierdo, .... he bajado de peso 5 kg ... no sé si es por tanto trajín que me demanda el cuidado de mi padre, ... también la zona del maxilar se ha presentado algunas complicaciones, (el Doctor Kawasaki, ya me había advertido que se tiene que estar haciendo ajustes cada cierto tiempo) ....

HpS - No hay otra opción para ti excepto refugiarte por completo en la profundidad de tu corazón, más allá del mundo físico.

Bueno, mi partida a MX es el 21 y, ud. Llega el 26 ... estoy muy triste, pero, con la esperanza que por su infinita compasión pueda regresar a Perú a recibir su Darshan tan anhelado ... .. mi padre, continúa leyendo el Libro de Krishna, .. gracias al accidente de mi mano, y, lo enferma que se me ve, mi familia está en mejor disposición de ayudar a mi padre, ... ahora, él ha regresado a casa de mi hermana, está más protegido y acompañado .... por mi parte, sólo puedo, agradecer eternamente a sus divinos pies de Loto,

amado Gurudev que siempre ora por está discípula tonta que apesar de todas las circunstancias puedo tener una gota de la misericordia del Sankirtan...

en estos meses pude distribuir 172 libros y 2 BG grandes, .. la gracia de SRILA PRABHUPADA es tan dulce que me permite percibir el cielo en medio del infierno material, por cada libro distribuido es una felicidad y un agradecimiento eterno al Sena Pati Bhakta SRILA PRABHUPADA!! y, todo lo debo a ud. Querido Gurudev!!

Su inútil y torpe sirvienta

M. Jambavati d.d

HpS-ASA - Como podemos pensar que su vida no esta organizado por la energia interior. Sanatana Goswami tenía llagas sangrantes en el cuerpo, pero el Señor Caitanya lo abrazó personalmente.

Que tu corazón vuele en constante Sankirtan en este mundo. La poca ayuda que podemos ofrecer es suya. Solo envía más noticias de tu Sankirtan bajo la protección de Radha Madana Gopal y algunas fotos.

Nuestros respetos a los devotos en México.

Quizás nos encontremos en Vani en Perú o en Houston.
