Letters to the editor

All Glories to Guru Parampara,

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

H. H. HpS Maharaja! Dandavat Pranam!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Guruji Maharaja’s Padama Charan that when I read Bhagavatam 10.79.15 Translation : " At Mount Mahendra He saw Lord Parasurama and offered Him prayers, and then He bathed in the Seven branches of the Godavari River ....."  Is this Lord Parasurama (Avatara) the same Parasurama of Ramayana?

HpS - AGTSP paoho. Agt the Wonderful Land of Manipura! From the Kapi Dhvaja you can see how we are struggling to answer all the mail. Yours is VERY dear to us!!!! Please read the KDh. Put the current Priority Code from the Letters to the Editor section in the Title of your letters so we will notice it.

We are preying to Sri Krsna for quick improvement of Guruji Maharaja's health condition. We are so sorry to know that Guruji could not read letters and write answers to the devotees who lived far far away different countries and waiting Guruji's Aasirbad.

HpS - "Guruji" is even more sad!!! Any shortage we have in our service Krsna will fill that!

As my retirement is nearing (28.2.2022), I was promoted from Section Officer to Assistant Registrar recently. It is also a part of Bhagavan's mercy.

HpS - Do you get to wear a special hat? 😁 What are you reading? How is Krsna consciousness in Manipura? Hope you can connect during the lockdown.

Yours fallen servant,

Yamuneswara Das

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Please Maharaja, accept my most humble obeisances

Its been a while since i last wrote you,

ASA - Us also!!

but i´ve been keeping track of your wherebouts thanks to Parasurama Prabhu and Bhakta Hector Prabhu, thanks to them that also have helped me so much thru my process.

i hope you are in good health and doing good.

HpS - Like yours!

As for me i´m still in Panama, its been 2 years and a half now and im amazed how fast time is going!

As my mind got trouble and rebelious i took a step back (again) and i feel like everytime im close to start doing things right i bounce back to my worst behaviors. I also feel very tired most of the times , in general, i can call it laziness, and i feel in ignorance, i wasnt following any principles for the last 6 months...i also stopped going to the temple...

HpS - The Evil One got you!!

... but around two weeks ago something [God] shook me out and started chanting again, and back in order to start following principles again.. i dont feel completly guilty, its like an internal battle between i know what i should do and why i dont do it the right way. Im tired of being tired, lazy and mediocre...

why is it easier for certain people and for others is so hard?

HpS - The same reason it will be easy for you in the next lifetime, because whatever progress you do you take with you!

can all this tireness and laziness come from also being supressing a depression?

HpS - Maybe!

thank you Maharaja for the precious time you take to read all this that i put out about my troubled mind.

ASA - Sorry so slow to answer. We are lazy, but also can't answer while traveling. Too many personal consultations! Read the Kapi Dhvaja. www.JayaRama.US!! You are way ahead of many people on the planet! Become better. Become a Doctor.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Estamos aquí en el templo de ISKCON Chile junto a 8 devotos, 5 cuerpos de hombres y 3 de mujeres. Ha estado intenso algunos días, el no poder salir estresa y genera fricción entre nosotros. Nos visita un hermano espiritual suyo, su nombre es Misra Bhagavan das.

HpS - Somos asociados desde 1979 o mas.

El sadhana es regular, tal como si estuvieran las deidades, ellas ahora están en la casa del pujari del templo, por el momento solo tenemos pinturas y la murti de Srila Prabhupada.

Estamos transmitiendo las clases en vivo por nuestra página de Facebook, ha tenido muy buena acogida.

Comenzaremos un programa de maha ronda desde mañana a las 7.00 am, en conexión con el proyecto de algunos devotos de latinoamérica como mi hermano Ananda Maya das de Perú, en el cual invitamos a que las personas centren su atención en Dios, independiente de su religión si es que no quieren cantar el maha mantra, para que el coronavirus pare de expandirse. De corona a Karuna, para acercar a las personas a la espiritualidad.

Gracias Gurudeva por sus clases y programas, usted tiene un reloj de Bhakti, su despertador es el amor por Dios. Yo tengo un celular, que a veces ni escucho. A pesar de que me cueste, hago el esfuerzo siguiendo su instrucción de levantarnos temprano y cantar nuestras rondas entusiastamente.

Ahora me doy cuenta que estoy muy lejos de llevar a cabo sus instrucciones de una manera ideal, tengo una naturaleza muy dispersa, siempre me involucro en muchas cosas, mucha pasión. Quiero centrarme en un solo deseo, servirle a usted por la eternidad.

Gracias Gurudeva

Hare Krishna

Su eterno sirviente, Pyari Mohan das.

HpS - Gracias, Pyari mohana Das. Adelantamos. Integramos con birth, death, disease and old age. They are Krsna pushing us to reconnect with him and live healthy lives. Without material suffering there is no material enjoyment. World of dualities.

Hare Krishna Dear Gurumaharaja

AGTSP, PAMHO

Wishing that he is always well, we always pray Lord Nrishamdeva to protect and care for him. We are writing using Internet Explorer, using Google Chrome when writing, it is automatically deleted, apparently there is no problem with it, please if my report could not receive it, can I send it again?

HpS - We are receiving... AGTSP!!! Paoho...

Dear Gurumaharaja, the family is well, B. Ayda has been, appointed as a Teacher for the Institutions of Initial Education of the Government, she is very happy, she is a little far away, but only for a few years, then they will transfer her to another Institution closer.

Nilacandra will be 10 years old, I changed her to an Adventist School, it is closer to the house where we live, very good that school.

HPS - Yes, usually Adventists are good schools for devotees.

Vrisabhanu Nandanu is going to turn 8 and move on to second grade, she is in a school near my wife's Job, it is only for women. Well now they are home for quarantine, they do their homework and then they play, they gave them a puppy and we named it Harinama. We are all locked up at home, my father is with us, a good person, he has retired, he is in good health. Once he told me that before getting married he went to the Temple in Cusco, when he was close to his house, it was only once, he did not attract much attention. He does not go to the Temple, but he is very respectful, I always take him Maha from Sri Sri Goura Nitay, he loves sweets.

We enroll in the Pada Padma course taught by LAD, we have to do our rehearsals, we learn many new things as a group.

Thank you very much for all that Dear Gurudeva, everything you do for all of us is wonderful and we would be very stupid if we did not take advantage of it. Sometimes when I read your Notepad, I can sadly see comments about the fidelity of the Spiritual Master, personally I would like to comment something, many times when I sing rounds or I am going to give the class, I think about YOU, I can feel it close, and it is easier for me to do my service, Paramatma, the connection, sometimes we forget about practical things and start looking for other things that lead us astray, everything is in the sadana, in the study of the sastras, in the singing of the rounds, then everything else it becomes easy, and without fear of being wrong, it is the evidence that exists between Guru and his disciple, we should all know it since we daily repeat Sri Guru-Vandana.

I know that I have wasted a lot of time on mental things, all because of my immaturity, but now I am much more than convinced that what should be done. It is part of the process, but it only depends on you if you stay or if you advance, I am still in nothing but I know that by your mercy we can do the right things, Dear Gurudeva.

HpS - Thank you!!!! AGTSP.. Paoho... Chant and we are together, at Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet, no? Next letter. Let us go together.

Hare Krishna Maharaja

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias a sus pies

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Un gusto saludarlo y espero que usted se encuentre bien en este momento.

Nuevamente me presento, soy bhakta Damián de Traslasierra, Córdoba, Argentina.

Quiero compartirle que tuve una muy linda maratón de Sankirtan aquí en donde vivo y también distribuyendo los libros de Prabhupada en la ciudad de Rosario.

Pude distribuir 264 libros chicos y 10 Bhagavad Gita en el mes de diciembre gracias a la misericordia de Srila Prabhupada y del Señor Krishna.

HpS - ASA -- TlgaSP!!! pfanrh,,,, has visto ellos despues???

Siguiendo con el servicio de Sankirtan en enero, con buenas perspectivas porque hay turismo en la zona donde vivo, entonces hay mucha gente estos meses.

Tratando de mantener una regularidad en el canto de japa. Para este año me propuse cantar las 16 rondas todos los días. Ya que cuando cumplo con el sadhana diario me siento mucho mejor mentalmente.

Tratando de retomar mi estudio de Bhakti Sastri, desde hace unos meses lo dejé un poco de lado y deseo recomenzar.

Junto con los devotos vecinos de la zona estamos estudiando el Srimad Bhagavatam quincenalmente y también nos juntamos semanalmente a leer el Bhagavad Gita.

ASA - termina??

Le dejo un saludo afectuoso

Please accept my humble obeisances.

I´m Pandaveya prsni das, from Spain.

ASA - I'm Tom Brown from Hubei

I wish You are perfect in all aspects, I wish read more in the DTC of today about You, all days I see.

This time I haven´t any Iskcon association, it was a very dry time and space…I wish have association in Nrsimhadeva or Gaura purnina in Nueva Vrajamandala or in Valencia in a near future.

Preach ... I preach all I can to the people around me, some more information than others. I try to give this gift all I can, one way or another, especially the gift of the "Mantra Yoga" meditation with the transcendental names of God ... I don't try to give other knowledge unless I am asked for more information, and I am generally asked for more information on why the names of God or why Hare Krishna, then I explain more. I do not usually explain anything institutional unless they wish to know, and this is not usually the case, they generally want to know more, some, but nothing about institutions.

It is also true that I am generally not very long in one place, and I think I give them enough information so that they can find more in the future if I am not, and I think it's quite in my circles, I don't do a very complex preach.

My philosophy is that people do not decide one way or another, because I do not usually see many results, but that they learn a tool of transcendental meditation, and I put my confidence that Paramatma will guide them then. So I have seen many more results over the years, of course in my circles, which are usually very normal.

Sorry about your concerns for me.

Please accept my humble obeisances.

HARE KRSNA.
