Hare Krsna Srila Gurudev

Srila Prabhupada ki jai !!

Dandavat pranam at your lotus feet Srila gurudev

I am so glad and relieved to see that your holiness plans to visit Vraj dham this year. Consequently I, have currently dropped my plans for spain. Although, I am thinking of atleast making my passport.

I had a very very wonderful Darshan at jagannath puri. Tried visiting the places where sri caitanya mahaprabhu used to go. I got lot of mercy in the form of darshan and prasad at alarnath dham. The stone that had melted under Caitanya mahaprabhu is still there.

Went to bhajan kutir of H.D.G. Srila Bhakti Siddhant Saraswati thakur Srila Prabhupada. My appreciation has increased so much for him. I always felt special connection with H.D.G. Bhakti Siddhant Saraswati goswami Prabhupada. I am currently planning to read Bhakti Siddhant Vaibhav by H.H. Srila Bhakti Vikas maharaj. Found a online free copy, not sure if that's the complete version or not.

My sadhana has also improved a lot. 4 regulation principles intact and chanting my 16 rounds regularly but quality has to improve.

My Nitai and Nimai deities are back with me so I am very happy to serve them again. Looking at them gives me lot of happiness.

Srila Gurudev one question : how do senior devotees associate with each other. When Sanyasis and senior devotees meet each other how do they associate, what do they talk about.

Eagerly waiting for you to come to vraj.

Your trying to be student

Rturaj Krsna Das

hps/asa -super, super, agtsp, good news. t h a n k you!!! thank you. you are making solid eternal progress.

omly 23% chance of visiting in dia from spain.

next letter!! join us.

Hare Krishna!

Dear Guru Maharaja

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

All glories to you.

Gurudeva, I wanted to say thank you.

I am making some advancement and I owe you very much for this.

I know I could not pay you back but I do desire to try. I am trying my best by waking up everyday at 3:45am, chanting 16 superbly attentive rounds,

following 4 regs

and dancing at Mangala aarti.

My rounds are done before 9am. Our morning program is pretty much like clock work, and I am working on going deeper.

I am very determined to spread KC in Dallas here to westerns. We have programs specifically targeted for this demographic and we are finding some success. Even more targeted is I am working to spread KC with youth. I have signed up for one of the NA leadership initiatives and Youth is my initiative I have chosen to be part of.

I figure this works very in line with my current preaching endeavours at Krishna House Dallas. We have a nice group with Manoram Prabhu, Malati Prabhu, Kalakantha Prabhu and Sangara Thaukur Prabhu. I think this is a great opportunity for me to work with and see some nice devotees in action.

Gurudeva, I really don't want to leave anything on the battlefield when I leave this body. Besides FMP and my service, I have read 9 books in the last month on communication, leadership, sales and wealth.

We will read Art of War soon.

I don't plan on slowing down with this.

I was told recently, a little over a month ago, that I have so much more potential than what I am giving. That stung but at the same time it started a fire within me, challenge accepted.

Since then, I have felt more alive in my KC than ever. I see more clearly my service, an amazing increase in my ability for it and my better character. I am a coach, a teacher, like you said 15+ years ago.

I don't want to do anything less than giving my everything for Srila Prabhupada and you. However, Gurudeva, I want to be transparent in my endeavor with you. If you have any concerns or adjustments, you would like from me please tell me. If you would be so kind please bless me that I can be the best leader, communicator and most importantly servant that I can be for Srila Prabhupada.

I am looking forward very much to seeing you in Houston, if Krishna allows me to live that long.

Haribol,

Your servant on the battlefield, boots on the ground,

Nanda-braja das.

HpS - AgtSP!!

You are such and example to us!

Thank God, even us dogs, bears, can take part and dance in ecstacy.

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Please accept my obeisances

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

We continue fighting, this mind I have is very demonic, but without a doubt the process of Krishna consciousness helps to control it through spiritual intelligence [3.43]

HpS//ASA - Wonderful!!

I have interacted with devotees from other Vaishnava schools, it has been nice to be able to appreciate their service. I don't share some things with them, philosophical topics and I think that if at some point they invited me to listen to a class at their school, I would avoid doing it, but if I share Kirtan, it is what unites us, and well, prasadam too (but making sure which does not have garlic or onion.)

Since February I have been making a contribution to the ISKCON Chile temple, and also to NIOS Chile, for whatever purposes they deem appropriate.

I took a Vedic counseling course, they teach the basis of the most important Vedic sciences: jyotish, ayurveda, yoga and vastu. It's in English, so it helps me put a little more effort into learning the language.

My musical and preaching project on social media is having good results. I am adapting the maha mantra to popular songs and it is attractive to people, also devotees.

Thank you Gurudeva for accepting me in your program again.

My obeisances

ps: I share a photograph of today's program (April 30, 2024), we are going to complete almost 2 months with weekly meetings. In the image Álvaro and his son Maximiliano. They are steady and enthusiastic.

HpS - Thank you!! THANK YOU! . . .

Pray, HK///HR, that Krsna puts a Brahminical column in your preaching efforts!!!

Hare Krsna!!

Best wishes bringing all your disciples back to Goloka!

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja Dandabat Pranam un to your Lotus feet.

HpS - AgtSP and his lotus feet, which I hope are also my lotus feet by his mercy!!

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

In response to your question in the previous letter, my mother Tarangaksi dd and my sister Devahuti are currently in New Vrajamandala. I'm living in Graz, a city in the south of Austria [Photo 1].

More than a month ago, I asked Maharaja Yadunandana for permission to leave New Vrajamandala, as I wanted to develop my teaching career. After the Gurukula closed last year, I performed various services for Radha Govindacandra. However, I began to strongly long to reconnect with teaching and being surrounded by children. I found an opportunity here in Austria to support an alternative school, and it has been a wonderful experience!! [Photo 2]. What I love most about my work is connecting with children, they come from different backgrounds and some of them possess incredible wisdom. I'll stay here until the end of June.

HpS - Are you in touch with Purnamasi Devi Dasi? She is doing so much similar work in Madrid. Jayanta Das' good wife.

Also, of course the grand Waldorf Acharya, Patraka Das.

Changing the world!

On the other hand, I have some important news to share with you. At the beginning of this year, I applied for a master's degree program in Education in Finland, following the recommendation of my family. Finland is known for having one of the best educational systems in the world. Recently, I was informed that I have been accepted and even awarded a scholarship. The program will begin this August and will last for 2 years. While many have congratulated me on this great opportunity, I'm feeling a bit worried. Finland has a very particular climate, with very few hours of sunlight during the winter. Additionally, there are no ISKCON temples or preaching centres in the city where the University is located. I know that the program will require a lot of dedication, and I recall when I was studying at the University in Peru, I completely neglected my spiritual life due to the demands of my studies. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. How can I know if this master's degree will contribute to my service to Krishna, You, and Srila Prabhupada? Ultimately, this is the most important thing to me, and I do not want to pursue a degree solely for obtaining a title or earning money. How can I maintain my sadhana and have a good association while living in a distant city and for a long time?

Thank you very much for reading this letter and I apologize for my offenses.

Trying to be your disciple,

Rukmini Devi Dasi

HpS/ASA - AgtSP. Wonderful. Fin Land.

Just being accepted is a great honor.

Bhadra rupa Das went down a similar line.

Remember him.

He came out as a member of the United Nations.

Yet, it was

hard

work!

Maybe contact him.

Talk with your family.

I think I have the same fears that you do, that you will go insane and starting eating cookies cooked by Karmis.

and turn into a frog

🐸 🐸 🐸

then eating flies.

One alternative is to try it out.

Even let your school know your situation.

After one year you can have better idea.

Beyond that I do not know.

Talk to the Purnamasi!!

ALL GLORIES TO SRI SRI GURU AND GAURANGA!

PAMHO AGTSP!

Hare Krishna Maharaj! How r u?

HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, are eternal, but our body is struggling with strong allergy. 😃

I’ve been a kind of busy and couldn’t do the X (Twitter) sign up in order to follow u. So I’m going to catch up with your news.

ASA - Very nice!

So I stopped smoking like a month or so, and been following again the 4 principles. I prayed to Krishna and took shelter in Srimad Bhagavatam, and my sorrows were gone. So that harsh trip left me with some new add-ons to my sadhana, now, whenever I feel kind of down, I read the Bhagavatam, or play some devotional music (that last one in particular has been my shelter lately) and always feel that my energies are renewed.

ASA - 💪💪💪🐒

So I keep doing Kirtan every morning, and chanting the 16 rounds, trying to chant boldly, like to suggested me. My life has been better overall.

I’m feeling more confident regarding my child’s custody trial, I have an audience with the judge, my child and her mother this coming week, so I would like to please ask for your mercy and blessings so I can be Krishna’s instrument in court.

Yesterday I visited ISKCON Buenos Aires and was missing your classes in that temple, do you have any plans to visit us?

I’ll try to attend some of your online classes again, the other day I watch one of them in which you were showing your drawings, which I really liked!

Well hope Maharaj you are always well!!!

thanks again for encouraging me in this path!

Please accept my obeisances!

HK!
