KDPC - Life in times of the " threefold klesa"

4 years, 6 months ago by RiturajMajumder in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krsna gurudev .

AGTSP !!

Dandavat pranam at your lotus feet.

HpS - ASA -- Chrysathamum feet???

In my last letter you had asked about my life . I am currently chanting my 16 rounds , 4 regulative principles seems OK ( evening time had taken two sips of coffee - just the act of boiling the water had felt good- that's all ..will stop it by tomorrow most probably. ),

ASA Herbal tea is O.K.??? Boil water.

... worshiping the deities is fixed while listening to srimad bhagawatam , whole day trying to chant better or relate things with Krsna - need more vaco vegum.

Next plan is to regulate the day according to the various book reading . Like NOI , NOD , BG and SB ...like I saw you doing in my travel. Mangal aarti timing is still not up to standards ...but improving on right direction.

ASA - "Early to bed and early to rise, and you will be happy, wealthy and wise", Benjamin Franklin.

On duty front , have covid 9 screening and sample collection duty from 19- 25th of July in shift basis . Cases are on rise . But good time to realize that "I am not the body " and also how to react if death comes - as u said No Assisted ventilation ..even I plan to do that if it comes to that . Don't want to be drugged and forget Krsna completely.I hope my deities continue to get services after I leave the body .

This is practical demonstration of the various klesa described in bhagawatam .

Thank you so much for the association over start meeting and zoom . I am trying , please do not reject me completely .

Thank you gurudev for your intense help .

Hare Krsna

Your trying to be disciple .

HpS - We are all trying to be Srila Prabhupada's disciple. Go ahead, go ahead, no? The progress on this path accumulates even eternally. You life will become more and more interesting and productive. You will get more and more relations in Sri Krsna Sankirtan.

How is your biological family?

HpS - Willie, Margot & Harold, no??? What have you done since then? I suspect your father has gone to "his reward"??? I remember you so well. Mexico you studied medicine and were afraid to go down the cliff to look at the dead body, no?

What kind of deity worship you do?

[kdpc]" Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

4 years, 6 months ago by bhaktadamian in Personal Sadhana Reports

 Hare Krishna Maharaja

Por favor, acepte mis humildes reverencias

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las glorias a usted


Soy Bhakta Damián, de Traslasierra, Córdoba, Argentina.

(Espero me recuerde, abajo le adjunto una foto)

HpS - Yes, I remember you. Cordoba. We talked one time at the program with the candidate for Mayor, no? Yo are train conductor? Several times we talked at Madhavendra's house?

Espero que usted se encuentre bien de salud y contento.

Hace varios días que quiero escribirle, y en realidad no quería ocupar su tiempo.

HpS - ASA - We are your servants.

Pero después pensé que quizás sea bueno contarle un poco más sobre mi vida y mi situación actual...

Como le dije, estoy cantando Hare Krishna desde 2016 y desde el 1/1/2020 cumpliendo con las 16, a veces bien cantadas, a veces bastante distraído.

Con respecto a mi vida espiritual, tengo días que estoy muy entusiasmado en conciencia de Krishna. Leo mucho, hablo de Krishna con todos los que puedo, etc...

y otros días, debido a alguna que otra frustración material, mi fe se debilita bastante, y entro en un estado de sin sentido en la vida bastante grande... pero igualmente, trato de cumplir con mi sadhana lo mejor que puedo (lo mejor que me permite la mente).

Gracias a Krishna, al otro día ya estoy motivado otra vez... Son ciclos...

HpS - It may be because we are not perfectly connected to Krsna. We are like a person still in the water but holding on to a rope from a safe boat. When the big waves come we go under (Mode of Ignorance) but it is different being under the wave with no rope, and being under it with strong rope, no? What is the rope? (16-nice rounds, 4-principles strictly).

Es muy difícil vivir en este mundo. Y es difícil lidiar con la insatisfacción material, cuando aún el sabor espiritual es en cuentagotas...

HpS - Yes, we have to understand what is this world better and then change our habits and then we can get complete success here. This world is a school for mentally sick people, no?

Un día, en la clase de la mañana de gotomeeting, yo le hice una pregunta:

“por qué tomamos una decisión TAN MALA de venir a este mundo (¿a disfrutar?) donde no hay manera de disfrutar…” Una decisión muy tonta hemos tomado…

Y usted, en su respuesta, al final me dijo: “Tú no eres Krishna… y yo no soy tu Radha”…

Nunca voy a olvidar esa respuesta...

Puedo darme cuenta cuánto envidio a Krishna y su estado de bienaventuranza eterna. Junto a Radha.

¿Alguna vez dejaré de envidiar a Krishna y de hacerle reclamos por mi infelicidad?

Maharaja, quiero preguntarle, si usted me acepta como aspirante a sirviente suyo.

Quiero refugiarme en sus pies. Y servirlo. Espero poder estar a la altura de las circunstancias, si usted me acepta…

Me gusta estudiar. Leer los libros de Srila Prabhupada, el Bhagavad Gita y el Srimad Bhagavatam.

Me gustaría hacer una grabación del canto 1 y 2 del Srimad Bhagavatam.

Quizás sea algo bueno que pueda hacer. ¿le parece útil?

Muchas gracias por todo

A su servicio

Bhakta Damián

Will I ever stop envying Krishna and making claims of my unhappiness?

HpS - You already have started to take your medicine. You have made a lot of eternal progress. Just have to continue. You are on a true path.

Maharaja, I want to ask you, if you accept me as an aspiring servant of yours.

HpS - Only if it is in the service of our Acharya, Srila Prabhupada!!! O.K.??

I want to take refuge on your feet. And serve it. I hope I can rise to the occasion, if you accept me ...

HpS - You read www.jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt?

I like studying. Read Srila Prabhupada's books, the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam.

I would like to make a recording of chant 1 and 2 of Srimad Bhagavatam.

Maybe it's a good thing I can do. Do you find it useful?

HpS - Try one section first. Eg. Chapters of Krsna leaving Hastinapura and entering Dvaraka. Then try adding music and a few images.

Thank you so much for everything

At your service

Bhakta Damien

ASA - Thank you!!!!!!! See you soon. Respects to all the Cordobians.

Personal Sadhana Report

4 years, 6 months ago by Yamuneswar Das in Personal Sadhana Reports

All Glories to Sri Guru Parampara,

Radha Krsna Ki Jay, Gouranga Mahaprabhu Ki Jay, Goura Bhakta Vrinda Ki Jay

H. H. HpS Maharaja! Dandavat Pranam!

HpS - Sri Sri B. S. Damodara Swami, Ki Jaya!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Guruji Maharaja’s Padama Charan that now after promotion to Assistant Registrar, I was posted to the Examination Section-E, and newly connected Internet facilities with a set of computer.

During this period, I could not communicate with Guruji Maharaja. No extra function for promotion like convocation, because it is internal arrangement with the acceptance of Executive Council of the University.

Excuse me for delay of responding Gurujis reply. I am reading Bg 11.2.50. mainly discussing Maya the external energy of Sri Krsna.

HpS - This verse (https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/11/2/50/)? So nice!!!


The activities of ISKCON Manipur is continuing as normal but due to Locked Down the public functions of Sunday was not allowed publicly.

Two months back one of our senior devotee name Yugalakishor Das; (who presented you chandan ladu thinking that it is sweet ladu) was expired . . .

HpS - Yes! I remember him. We did not see him during our last visit and I was wonderng what happend to him!

. . .and performed his saradha separately from our side and on that day Prabhu Partha Sarathi Das narrated Bhagavatam. Due to Corona lockdown, the number is less but successful.

HpS - He was such a super nice person. He must have taken birth in Gaura-lila or some place where he can be close to Lord Gauranga's lotus feet to advance his service!

My chanting of rounds increasing, daily mangal arati and sadhu sanga. It is quite helpful in my spiritual activities. Guruji! what is Guru Mantra? One of my sadhusanga asked me, you should remember your Guruji with Guru Mantra. Please clear my darkness about this matter.

HpS - Maybe refering to the the 2nd and 3rd Mantras in the "Gayatri" mantras we chant each day? Of course, Pranam mantra, "nama om visnu padaya..." is "Guru mantra also".

Once, Guruji Maharaja told us that Guruji will come to India and will stay at Vrindaban in the year 2022. Is it correct? If so we will get an opportunity to serve Guruji every year or so.

HpS - World is changing, no? Maybe Krsna is saying, "O.K. I gave you people powers like demi-gods. Fly here and there. Send your messages all across the world. Have great physical and military powers.

All through, "industrialization", but you have used them very, very badly, and now you are destroying the world! So, I will send viruses that you can only avoid if you start to base your life in the village again."

So, then we may be based locally, but make one more big trip to South America and stay there for some time and then to India????

This world is Dukhalayam asasvatam (BG). A place for tapasya, not enjoyment, and always changing.

Guruji! please give us asirvat so as to enable us to concentrate our spiritual activities to surrender to Krsna. Without His Marcy, no one could imagine his Ananda Swarupa, see His sweet voice. He only can give His eye, ear, knowledge, sparsa, gandha etc. etc. It is only my request.

Yours fallen servant,

Yamuneswara Das

HpS - So, nice to hear from you!!! Please send little news about everyone: Sadhu-sanga, Brahmana Teacher Disicple, Temple Authorities, Manu...

Please (!) send letters following the protocol at www.JayaRama.US/kd/lte.htm
