Letters to the editor

Dear Gurudeva,

receive a cordial greeting and best wishes, may Krishna and Radha bless you and always accompany you in your arduous task.

Hoy are you?

HpS - Fighting our selfish desires!

I hope that by reading this letter you are in good health.

HpS - Nobody in the material world is in good health, no?  Ha!   Ha!    Yet we can do service.

Dear Gurudeva, I feel the need to express my desire to take second initiation, I joined the movement in 2003, 15 years have passed since that first contact and almost seven since my initiation, I lived a year as an interim between Madrid and the farm and in the course of that period I took the course of Bhakti sastri. I was an active member of the Madrid Congregation formally until 2015, not actively participating in 2016, that same year there was an attempt to live in Guadalajara (Nueva vrajamandala) but it did not turn out, finally leaving for Almería. Currently we have plans to return to Madrid, but before making this decision we had other possibilities, even a few months ago we were about to leave for the UK, we also thought about Milan but due to fate our plans did not materialize .

On the contrary, at the end of December I obtained my accreditation as a psychotherapist or Counseller. At the end of my training the academic director of the association asked me to be part of the training team, I am currently fulfilling the role of librarian.

My standard is simple, 16 daily rounds, SB-CC reading, four principles. I have a small pocket altar, The constant changes have taught me to go light on luggage.

I do not know if I meet all the requirements, but as the saying goes, if you do not ask you do not get (quien no llora no mama)

I hope I have not missed any protocol with this request.

Your aspiring disciple

Bhadra Vardhana.

HpS - Second initiation is very nice, but first is enough to go to Goloka.  We have thought of you many times and were sad not to hear from you.  What has happened to Sananda Devi Dasi? She has become Judo instuctor in Hollywood and drive Jaguars?   She will be the first Spanish astronaut on the moon??

Second initiation:    Are you up always?   Regularly?  For Brahma-muhurta????

All Glories to A.C. Prabhupada Maharaja, Sripada Maharaja, Sri Guruji Maharaja. 

Radha Krsna Ki Jay, Gouranga Mahaprabhu Ki Jay and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay.

Guruji, Dandavat Pranam,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Sri Guruji Maharaja’s padmacharan that the work of proof reading of Prabhu Partha Sarthi Das’s Gita translation from A.C. Prabhupada’s Gita As It Is into Manipuri both in Bengaali and Meitei Mayek script. His translation technique is exceptional. It will realy helps to the new generation for understanding Gita smoothly in right ideas. His word meanings are in the simples form without changing the Sanskrit ideas. One can’t say that it is a translation from any languages. I have some improvements and learn many new things which I have no previous ideas. Before doing this work, I had already read Gita in Manipuri of different writers but it is quite different from them and it will be a new test.

HpS - Such wonderful news!!  Please give our respects and thanks to him and hope he has all strength in his service (even in another body).

I am a regular listioner, viewer of ISKCON desire tree lectures on video, audios and written on different topics. Among them, Gokuleshwara Das is so interested. If Guruji also uploaded all lectures of tour programme, conferences, classes relating to NOI, NOD, Gita or Bhagavatam it will be very help to all the deciples. It is the only means for me because I could not go and participate such activities in the Mandirs.

Your ignorant servant,

Yamunesvara Das

HpS - In the previous Kapi Dhvaja we had the link to our miserable lectures that one devotee was keeping. I will try to get it again. We have to run to different letters now. Our health is much improved and honestly hearing from you is like seeing and smelling Manipur.

<cite>I am PabloParikrama from Spain.</cite>

<cite>I hope you got better from your eye, and that you have recovered many strengths.</cite>

<cite>HpS - Much better!   AGTSP!</cite>

<cite>I do not know what to tell you about when it is best to come. I selfishly wanted to advise you to come when I had Varuna on summer vacation ... hahaha ... but the mother told me yesterday she does not want me to be with her this summer ...but with my parents there is no problem…hahaha …but I can think, of course, and I can say to You something in the next letter. Thanks.</cite>

<cite>I guess because she does not want Varuna stay with me in Nueva Vrajamandala, and I will not go back to continuous problems with the mother, again. Varuna is already 10 years old by the time he is 11, and he already knows everything. She will know what she does.</cite>

<cite>I have already sacrificed a lot to be close to him all these years (and I have done it with pleasure and duty), but I think it is time for a change. I had for a long time the idea of waiting until I was 12, but it's almost the same.</cite>

<cite>In the previous letter I told You that everything was fine in Nueva Vrajamandala because I did not want to bother You with so many external things, which are always the same ... problems.</cite>

<cite>I would like to open up a bit to you and explain a little about my current personal situation, especially psychological, and how I see my future, in the light of the mother's ongoing problems (she has lost her head the sense of reality) and of my decision to enter vanaprastha. I will try to be brief and no mentally Maharaja</cite>

<cite>First I want to say about Nueva Vrajamandala, that it is a miracle that this temple still exists, because when people are more concerned with looking at what their neighbors do and trying to sabotage their projects, and trying to take advantage of others by learning mediocre mystical powers instead of advancing spiritually ... that's the way it goes, really a kind of hell.</cite>

<cite>HpS - We heard from Srila Prabhupada's lips in 1975 in San Francisco when a reporter asked him, "Swamiji... are there problems in your Temples?".   Srila Prabhupada (laughed?) and said, "This is the material world, there are problems everywhere".   We are hearing problems from Bolivia, Idaho, here etc.   Of course, we deal with them but don't neglect laughing at them also. We can make everything perfect with the Maha-mantra. (https://www.vedabase.com/en/sb/12/3/51)</cite>

<cite>I am 85% determined to go to another country when I come back from India (especially now that the mother wants me to be living in a stable place, apparently the temple is not), and I had almost certainly thought of going to Peru to do service, at least one year, and meet other communities. The truth is that throughout my life, I have been about to go to live in Peru two times ... one married and one already separated, and I am very attracted to the idea of knowing Radha Madana Vihari and her community of little monkeys Hps.</cite>

<cite>HpS - Wow!   I think one thing you may learn is that the number of crazy devotees in Peru and Spain are equal.</cite>

<cite>Regarding vanaprastha, I am determined to continue like this ... or rather, to deepen more and more. I think that at one point or another I should wear saffron, I think everything would be more natural externally, but I do not know if a vanaprastha should do it. This decision is linked to the decision to learn to absorb more and more in devotional service, as my last path in this body, hoping not to deviate (It worry me more than to fall) and not to fall. I just want to find a community where I can feel that I am in the right place, and I do not feel it here. I'm only here for Varuna, really.</cite>

<cite>Maybe Krsna's plan is that I do not find an exact place, I do not know.</cite>

<cite>And I am also very attracted to the possibility of being with You longer seasons, learn to help You in Yours proyects,  and being able to be initianted ... of course I am also afraid, since I do not know if I am ready to be able to be close to the Guru, but I would like to take a chance and try it.</cite>

<cite>I think the speech has been pretty boring.</cite>

<cite>Thank you very much for all Maharaja, and please, let me know your opinion without hesitation.</cite>

<cite>Yours.</cite>

<cite>PabloParikrama.</cite>

<cite>HARE KRSNA</cite>

<cite>HpS - Thank you very much for this letter. I was surprised that you were not reporting problems in New Vraja Mandala. We have the same problems at our level.  Just like I guess Varuna has the same problems at his level.</cite>

<cite>How long have you been at NVM? Have you been following standard for initiation for six months?  Longer?   Yadu Swami will recomend you for Shelter?  Initiation?</cite>

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias

En respuesta a la carta enviada por Rukmini, quisiera decirle mis ideas sobre esta relación.

Rukmini es para mi la calidad y la futura esposa, por lo que hemos decidido avanzar en el Grihasta ashram formalmente autorizado.

Quería que mi relación avance conociéndonos más en el servicio a Krishna. Sin embargo, debido a las circunstancias familiares que presenta una denuncia estoy saliendo del templo y lo único que me queda es la relación con Rukmini bajo con visión.

Esperando siempre sirviendo a sus pies de loto.

Atentamente,

El servidor más insignificante

HpS - ASA ---  TlgaSP.   Desculpa la demora responder. Los ojos son mucho mejor pero aun no es normal leer del computador. Aun tengo que responder a su carta con algo de dolor, pero es muy importante. Si la familia de ella no es de acuerdo de una relacion honesto en investigacion de entrar en Ashrama de Grhastha y aun Vds. quiere continuar la unica recurso es involucrar la comunidad mas amplio para tomar un perspective mas amplio.

Por ejemplo, posible, con esta perspectiva, la conclusion es que tiene que esperar para esforzar adelantar esta relacion y adelantarlo de una manera mas suave para segurar que es bueno, en los ojos de la familia y la comunidad. Entonces puede esperar un buen experiencia en su Ashrama.

Esforzando hacer algo solo entre Vds. dos, sin aprobacion de seis buen devotos, es casi cierto terminar en un fracaso para ella, y claro la sufrimiento de ella es la cosa que Vd. quiere mas evitar.
