Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to Guru parampara.

Gurudev, got inspired internally to double the rounds so thinking to start 32 rounds from coming ekadashi.
It will be life long.

So if you have any advice or comments please help me to know.

Thank you so much Gurudev.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - We wrote and answer to this yesterday but we could not post it from La Paz.   According to our understanding it is best to take this vow for two weeks, like from the the next Ekadasi to the following. See the result and then with more consultation maybe take it for one year. Then ...

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay

My obeisances Maharaja.

I want to thank you for your always so clarifying answers, I appreciate it. I will have more progress in this topic and I will tell you how I have been working on it. I want to use Vaisnava psychology and philosophy for this, is it adequate?

HpS - Yes. Being an ISKCON devotee. Following the general process. Is great. If you need some specialized physical or mental help then being a devotee you can see that and then have good intelligence who to pick for a doctor.

On the other hand, I want to tell you that in the month of November Maharaja Dhanvantari Swami visits us, apparently they will be together on the same date in our yatra. I have thought about taking advantage of the instance and asking for refuge, although I think that would be complicated since I am involved in supporting the cases of sexual violence that have occurred, for which we have been very badly cataloged for creating protocols and forming a protective team Vaisnava I hope that this is not a difficulty, please give me your blessings so that with the mercy of Srila Prabhupada I can take refuge in my spiritual master and go forward on this path, which I promise that every day I do my best.

HpS - Hare Krsna!!!   We will be very happy to see Maharaja!

No more to say for now! I say goodbye Maharaja. Already counting the days to have your association in our country.

ASA - Photos attached.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada All glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay My obeisances Maharaja Dear Maharaja, how are you? Here in Chile feeling the separation of your association

. . . .

First, a small report: 4 principles: OK Japa: Not so Ok. I am aware that I must improve my singing.

Now, I want to tell you that as a result of the call to a meeting in the temple about "Caring for the devotees", a public denunciation of a fact of child sexual abuse committed by the one who was a member of the congregation is made, at present and for efforts of the victim herself, this person is prohibited from entering all the temples. On this topic, the devotees began to talk about respect among Vaisnavas, and to address issues of sexual violence .. . .

HpS - [As you have asked we are not publishing the details of the situation but have shared your letter with Jiva Goswami Das in Houston who is our student and finishing his work for his Master of Social Work diploma]

Please, Maharaja help us in this struggle with his light and his words. Your servant, Ma. Soledad.

HpS - ASA - This is the material world, even when Krsna was personally present in Vrndavana there were demons causing so much terror that the girls were having miscarriages. There is no real peaceful way to live in a mental hospital, except becoming doctors, good patients, with the aim of getting people out.

Considering who we are we don't want to stay in ISKCON Chile. We should only look at it as a transit place to ISKCON Goloka.

O.K.?

Beyond this you can contact the GBC Secretary, Zonal Supervisors. I have done this and was not satisfied on certain issues, so I took it to two more GBC Secretaries and was still not satisfied. It may not be that they are less competent or sincere than I am, but just that the way the institution is structured, the world is structured they cannot help.

Then, we can and have gone to Srila Prabhupada directly. We pray to him etc. and are working to solve the problems ourselves. Of course, it is hard but we don't feel frustrated. We are doing what we can.

You can do that.

O.K.?

If you DO SOMETHING then knowledge will come how to do more. It is the DOING, Bhakti, that gets the progress, not just making extended plans.

Be eveyone's well wisher. The Evil One is the one who is suffering the most. Find His fault and help him.

HARE KRISHNA DEAR GURUMAHARAJA, AGTSP, PAMHO.

Dear Gurudeva, first of all, you want to develop some fiery feasts and that the Mercy of Sri Krishna and your Gurumaharaja His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabbupada, always be poured out on you. I also want to thank UD and Srila Prabhupada for allowing me to continue and be part of this great ISKCON, and try to contribute something, even if it is insifignificant, we realize that we need to do something more, but of course, you have to improve first, we only ask for intelligence to to do it, and our promise to you and Srila Prabhupada is to improve each day more so we can serve you in the best way. All glories to Srila Prabhupada !!!!!!

HpS-ASA - Hare Krishna!

For being away, it is very difficult to do a service for the Temple in Cusco, but whenever I can I go to the programs, the last time I was in the Temple, I felt the annoyance of some devotees. LAD, once told me they see me as disinfected by the TEMPLE, but hey, I know they see the glass half empty, or they see my reality, but surely they must be right, nobody has ever asked me how I am, if I am Well, once I wrote to P. Gourarupa, comment on my activities, keep him informed, but hey, sometimes you also have to know how to give to receive.

I wanted to give the class for the Balarama Festival, it was Saturday, and I made arrangements to be there. It could not, the service is not cheap, I know. They had already organized, the party was held the following Sunday, the class was given by P. Astavarga. Those days I was very bad for a strong flu (change of climate), that Sunday I went to the hospital to give me some remedy, I could return to my house, but I wanted to be in the Temple, and so I went wrong, we believe that was Our desire, and by the mercy of Sri Balarama, can participate in the kirtan, although I did not stay long, I saw how beautiful the party was. I saw P. Amalakaruna and P. Jagaisvara, I could only greet them with joy, I saw them very well, also the family of Jagaisvara was there, how beautiful it is to see all the devotees gathered.

We could not participate in the Sri Janmastami and Srila Prabhupada parties on weekdays, and the work and my memte, did not let us participate. But we did fasting, we broke at midnight and at noon, glorifications in silence but with much love, we sang our rounds, our sadana, we felt that we improved little by little.

Dear Gurumaharaja, thank you very much for your time to read this letter of stupid servant, thank you very much for your mercy without cause, and although we have so many limitations and problems, we try to maintain, we try to improve our sadana, our family, although with many problems , but we know that everything will improve too. We will tell you more things in our next report. May the mercy of Sri Krishna, always be poured out on you.

Hare Krishna Dear Gurumaharaja.

Your useless servant
