Hare Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP,
We were hearing your lecture on books are the basis. In that you mentioned
"one should build personal relation with Prabhupada".
For steel framed heart , a loner, low EQ person, (all this my mind not me ), 2 leg- animal, like us how can we establish personal connection. Is it okay to have personal-indirect connection all the time?
We are struggling with our necessities of eating, sleeping, working and defending. but one thing is good----16 rounds and 4 rules are intact and increasing in seriousness.
Virtual Mangal artik is more regular.
The best time is when we hear your lectures, and as you said "books are the things which you want to remember", kindly give us permission to transcribe your lectures.
I know personally you don't want to eclipse position of Srila Prabhupada,
but for fools like us, we need bridge like you.
We are not that fortunate and sincere as you are, but still somehow we got your association. We know once you are physically gone, only your voice will be remaining.
Frankly speaking we don't see any other purpose than to serve you in any capacity, in current life.
our wife and kid left us. its not a problem. you leave this world is a end of world for us practically.
I know you want us to preach, then what an two leg animal like us can do to preach.
we are saying this because in our department somebody regularly criticked us and then in reaction our hands legs started shaking, with rush of blood. We could not stop it immediately. now this is strange behaviour. reason we could figure out was hunger as trigger.
everybody has sort of disowned us, they expect us to be mature.
we are just two legged animal, who studied things to get bread.
but we console ourselves by saying that we had fortunate to share rooms, car, flight with HpS.
Srila Prabhupada took care of fool like us by making us meet you.
as Srila Prabhupada said he will live in his books forever, please allow us to make you alive forever also.
Youtube lectures are there, but still books seems to be more integrated.
robotic, automated, 2 -legged animal
HpS - Esteemed two legged animal with Doctorate !!
1) Your association is always nice. How can Srila Prabhupada or any one who reveres him forget the work you did to make the 'International Symposium on the Contribution of Ancient India in Making a Better World', in Calcutta. So many other ways you have helped Srila Prabhupada's mission.
Maybe you have shortcomings (in the material world everyone will show that [NOI-6]), but anybody with good heart and good brains will find some way to get the good aspects of your association.,
2) Transcribing: First work on the ASA(e). We seem to have stumbled in moving it forward. I (and TB/BW) just need a file that we can open with Word with everything in one alphabetic sequence ie. Essays and References.
O.K? Some of the DTC-UT presentations that we are making now could be made into publications and well as movies. First the ASA(e), no? The lectures could be edited into it.
3) Personal relationship with Srila Prabhupada: "The spiritual master is the transparent medium, although it is true that the experience is still direct." https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/18/advanced-view/#bb4272
It is like seeing the world through glasses. You have a direct experience of the world. So test of Guru parampara is that we have a direct experience of Srila Prabhupada through:
- Paramatma
- Deity
- Books
- Devotees
- Dreams
- Process
- etc.
We used the weed whipper yesterday with goggles. It was good. Trimmed down a lot of weeds. Now we have Texted Don [Christian] is he can come and cut the major part. Many blossoms here. Hope to get to Discount Tire and get the Mercedes tire fixed.
Cooked two tablespoons of fennel seeds, two tblspns of rolled oats, and one robust carrot, and few walnuts and little salt, little olive oil, for Lord's lunch.
Was nice offering. As soon as we thought about how much to cook for Him etc. our consciousness changed and usually we cooked less and had a finer idea of what kind of food was needed for Him to have full energy.
We do not know anything.
Whatever plans we have, memories, are the result of chanting.
They keep the Calendars.
They defend us, or sacrifice us to the mall assassinators.
AGTSP Paoho..
