Initiation

4 years, 1 month ago by hps in Personal Sadhana Reports

From Yahoo.com we received this nice letter:


Hare Krishna, Maharaj

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

My name is Dave, I am 32 years old, I am from Switzerland and I have lived in Latin America for a few years and and that was when I came to Krishna consciousness.

Since 2 years i am practicing bhakti yoga as good as i can. Following the 4 principles and chanting daily 16 rounds.

Last year i have done the bhakta course and recently the guru-disciple course and lived for a few months in the ISCKON Temple Zürich. I am very inspired by you and now I want to go a step further.

I wanted to ask if I can take shelter at your lotus feet. 

 

Srila Prabhupada, Kii Jai 

your humble servant Bh.Dave

Cumpleaños de Gopal !!

Por favor acepte mis reverencias a Sus pies de loto.todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!


Deseaba contarle que cuando era niña ibamos con mis padres y hermanos a cieneguilla. Y traiamos el auto lleno de manzanas!! Si Usted va a cieneguilla en Lima seguro podrá comer buenas manzanas. Esperemos sigan esos hermosos valles.


ASA - TlgaSP!!! Y tan cerca a Lima.


También me apena que este buscando alquilar en Lima un lugar. ¡ Como me gustaria que pudiera quedarse en la casa de mis padres! Hay lugar ahí porque se alquilan habitaciones. Pero me gustaria que Usted Gurudev se quedará gratuitamente porsupuesto y los devotos también!. Sólo que mi padre no se como reaccionaria. El es muy respetoso. Sólo que con los devotos CREO esta algo enojado hasta ahora porque le "quitaron " a su " hija"


ASA - Hacienda con 10 hectarias en el campo!


Le envió este "poema " palabras que me salieron en la cuarentena del año pasado.


Aprovecho pedirle sus bendiciones inigualables y maravillosas para mi adorado Gopalito !!!. Mañana sábado 15 de Mayo, cumple 9 años!!! Deseo Su bendición para El Para que sea siempre feliz en conciencia de Krsna!! Y vuelva en esta vida a Nuestro verdadero hogar en Goloka!


HpS - Todos bendiciones a Gopal. Espero sus padres ofreciendo muy buen oportunidades de educacion.


SÓLO NOS QUEDA ESPERAR


Un dia .. mientras hacia mis actividades

me pregunté 

...

Porque hago todo este esfuerzo ?..

Nunca me había preguntado esto...

Y me respondí: Para mi señor para estar con el , con ellos y me puse feliz ..pero pensé... pero no lo veo , no estoy con El ni con Sus asociados. .. que estoy haciendo AHORA realmente? 

Y me di cuenta que sólo estoy esperando... INCREÍBLE.! 

sólo estoy esperando! 


Y entonces me salieron estas palabras 


Somos Prakriti: Femeninos 

Sólo nos queda esperar 

Esperar la misericordia de Krsna 

Esperar Su misericordia por Servirlo

Esperar Su misericordia por Amarlo

Esperar Pacientemente 


Podemos actuar físicamente 

Y podemos actuar con todos los esfuerzos de nuestro corazón 

Servirlo Fervientemente y..

Entonces

¿Que nos queda ?

Suplicar y Esperar

Su Misericordia 

Para

Que alguna vez 

Nos lleve con El


Así como la novia espera que que el novio le diga Sus Sentimientos


Así como la Naturaleza espera la mirada de Krsna para Fecundar


Así esperamos todos aquí por Tí mi Amado


Esperamos Ardientemente

Que te apiades de nosotros

Que no nos dejes morir de Desolación 


Que nuestro esfuerzo y espera

No sean en vano


Te Amamos

Y te seguiremos Esperando 

Hasta el final de los tiempos


.~.


       

Por favor perdone mis ofensas cometidas sin querer en esta carta. Y por favor acepte reverencias de mis dos niños a veces ...a veces guardianes! !😊 Franco y gopal!


intentando complacer su hermoso corazon: J.P.Radha d.d.



Please accept my obeisances at His lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada !!!



I wanted to tell him that when I was a child we went with my parents and brothers to Cieneguilla. And we brought the car full of apples !! If you go to cieneguilla in Lima, you will surely be able to eat good apples. Let's hope those beautiful valleys

continue.


It also saddens me that he is looking to rent a place in Lima. How I wish he could stay at my parents' house! There is a place there because rooms are rented. But I would like you Gurudev to stay for free of course and the devotees too!

Only my father didn't know how he would react. He is very respectful. Only with the devotees I BELIEVE he is somewhat angry until now because they "took" his "daughter" from him.


He sent you this "poem" words that came out in my quarantine last year.


I take this opportunity to ask for your unique and wonderful blessings for my beloved Gopalito !!! Tomorrow, Saturday, May 15, he will be 9 years old !!! I wish Your blessing for Him to be always happy in Krsna consciousness !! And return in this life to Our true home in Goloka!


JUST WAIT FOR US


One day .. while doing my activities I asked myself ... Why do I make all this effort? I've never asked myself this ...

And I answered myself: For my lord to be with him, with them and I became happy ... but I thought ... but I don't see it, I am not with Him or with His associates. .

what am I really doing NOW? And I realized that I'm just waiting ... INCREDIBLE! I'm just waiting!


And then these words came out



We are Prakriti: Feminine

We can only wait

Waiting for Krsna's mercy

Expect His mercy to Serve Him

Expect His mercy to love Him


Wait patiently


We can act physically And we can act with all the efforts of our heart Serve it fervently and ..

Then What do we have left?

Beg and wait His mercy In order to That sometime Take us with him Just as the bride expects the groom to tell her His Feelings Just as Nature waits for Krsna's gaze to fertilize

So we all wait here for You my Beloved We ardently hope Have mercy on us Don't let us die of desolation


That our effort and hope Do not be in vain


We love you And we will continue waiting for you Until the end of time

. ~.



Please forgive my inadvertent offenses in this letter. And please accept obeisances from my two children: sometimes ... sometimes guardians! ! 😊 Franco and gopal!


trying to please her beautiful heart:

J.P. Radha d.d


HpS - Poema poco larga para nuestra energia pequeno. Pero no deja enviar. Otros puede apreciar muchos!!!

Radha rani, Satyabama, son prakrtis, femina, pero agressiva de una manera!!


Candravali - Rukmini esperando muy hermosamente.

Bhakti Shastri Course Completed

4 years, 1 month ago by divya in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaj

please accept my humble obeisances

All Glories to you

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada


Guru Maharaj hope you are doing well


HpS - AGTSP! Paoho our obeisance from down here a 200ft above sea level. Today is last day in Houston, Nila-madhava Dhama. For one week we have had no hay fever, allergy. Incredible. What will happen tomorrow?



Extremely Sorry for not writing for a long time..... I was little disturbed as my father was admitted in the hospital due to covid... and he was in critical condition for couple of days...

Now he got discharged and is in the process of recovery.


HpS - Dying is fine. Our body becomes compost for other bodies. Live or die, serve "The King"!!


Few of my relatives left their body due to covid.. and my Shiksha Guru Madhuri Rasa Mataji informed that her father passed away due to covid.. I had a good relationship with Prabhuji.. We all studied together for the Bhagawad Gita (Last book for Bhakti Shastri Exam).


HpS - It hurts to lose them!!!! Yet, we are connected. We will never lose contact with those with whom we engage in Krsna Katha, read Srila Prabhupada's books.


These things was completely draining my mind and was making me difficult to perform my daily sadhana.. Somehow my your mercy I was able to do some services in Sri Radha Kalachandji Temple..... and chant 16 rounds daily... and take care of our deities Sri Nitai Navadwip Chandra...


HpS - Super Chica!!!


Maharaj by your mercy I was able to complete the Bhakti Shastri Course. Gopal Hari prabhu is yet to publish the results.

But he informed Srinatha Krishna Das that i have passed the exams.


HpS - Very nice. Let it all settle in your heart. Look over all the books informally. Maybe Pada padma, Cantos One and Two, Bh. Vaibhava style.



Guru Maharaj i have started reading the book “ I’ll Build you a Temple” written by HH Giriraj Swami Maharaj. It is such an interesting and amazing story.... I am so eager to complete the book.... I hope that I will finish the book soon.


HpS - Where are you? Where can we establish New Ashoka van in Peru? We have vaccination. Our idea is to rent about 5 hedtares with a hacienda other property and make a movie, puppets etc. Have good hygiene and quarantine before anyone enters. Nice garden houses for quarantine. Where should we do that? Good idea? Show the world how to live happily in this mental hospital.


Guru Maharaj always keep me engaged in your service


HpS - That's easy. https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/antya/20/21/


Yours Servant

Divya Sri Devi Dasi


HpS - Ha! Ha! Ha! I thought you were Divya drsti Devi Dasi!!!! How wonderful. You have an alter ego in the Himalayas of Peru!!! Maybe this is a message. You are going to be carried with Srinatha Das to Peru!!! Was so, so, so nice to see you all few days ago. So, nice. your cookies and burfi were gobbled up by greedy children and adults within a a very short time.


You must get to know Divya drsti. She is very very humble happy girl.

Gracias

Hare Krishna Gurudeva por favor acepte mis humildes obediencias todas las glorias para Srila Prabhupada


muchas gracias por darle el nombre a Arjun Krsna por se tan paciente con migo y tan misericordioso con esta familia


HpS - I think that maybe you are being more tolerant of our deficiencies. Thank you. However possible give Krsna consciousness. Even our comportment in public, smile, Srila Prabhpada says, will attract people to Krsna.


estamos esperando su visita y personalmente necesito su misericordia


HpS - It is a possibility. 😊. We have to see if we get sick from this trip (Going back to Nashville tomorrow) and die. If we die then we will be a little delayed in travel to New Biharvan in our gross form.


mi sadhana no está siendo bueno y estoy en modo supervivencia


mis rondas durante el día mis puja a mis deidades y mi servicio al templo ahora es sólo cuatro días a la semana


atendiendo dos bebes mientras Kamagayatri trabaja y mantener la casa digna


por las noches mis apneas y Jahnavi despertándome toda la noche no tengo descanso para afrontar el día


HpS - It is like a military battle. You can learn more and more tricks to defeat the enemy. Surpass the obstacle. I think we have too much fat on our body from the difficult living conditions. We will reduce fat if you get good rounds done! 😀


me siento realmente avergonzado de no poder asistir a sus clases


HpS - Mi tambien. Gordo guru, pero realmente feliz interior. Luchando adoptar a la situacion. Vamos a ganar.


solo puedo llorar Krsna para tener la misericordia de mi Maestro espiritual y que un día pueda sentirse orgulloso de mi servicio


HpS - Pronto!!


suplicando por la misericordia de Gurudeva y Gauranga

su sirviente

murari dasa


HpS - Ser padre de tantos muchachos es mucho trabajo. Sea buen ejemplo para ellos. Vamos a la proxima carta juntos.


Parashuram or Bhisma?

4 years, 1 month ago by harsh_horse in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hate Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO.

AGTSP.


Considering our attraction to martial arts, fights etc, we thought it would be nice idea if we can make Bhisma as role model. But he was kshatriya and the ISKCON movement is more for brahmins.


HpS - It is for everyone but in the beginning there must be Brahmanas to guide the Ksatriyas.


We appreciate Panch-Tattva, but we some how are reluctant to make them our role model. May be we are still not convinced about power of holy name [Holy Name].


So how about Parasasuram is rold model? He was Brahmim, only in great emergency he fought and in such a way, that all Kshatriyas flee.


Salute,

Dandvats,

Horse


HpS - Will you take Karate, Judo, Boxing lessons?
