HpS - ASA - Please accept our humble obeisances!  All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Querido Gurudeva hace tiempo que no escribo al blog. Cuando hace mucho tiempo en la ciudad de México, tengo que preocuparme por la vida espiritual, soy tan vulnerable como caer una y otra vez, solo quiero hacer algo de servicio práctico para usted. por favor quiero servirme de una forma práctica de juego que puedo hacer.usted es muy sabio y entiende siempre mi corazón le agradezco por tomarse el tiempo en leer está carta.

Atte su sirviente gadadhar gosai das

HpS - Era muy, muy, animador ver todo Vds. en Mexico!!  En el Canto Tercero el Senor Brhma dijo la misma al Senor Visnu: En mi servicio va a tener contacto con tan muchos locos y lujuriosos! Como puedo evitar caer en Maya!!!     El Senor dijo, por siempre ser ocupado en servicio devocional.  No tiene que ser algo muy grande, pero siempre haz algo para su Senor, y resultado de eso va a ser mas anima en mas servicio.

Anterioramente Vd. era un B'cari, Sankirtan viajero. Ya es comandante de familia, puede ser alcalde de su pueblo y predica por medio de esta manera.

Krsna es 'yamuna tira vana achari', siempre ocupado en juegos divertidos. Canta Hare Krsna y unirse con estos1

Hare Krsna Gurudeva,

Please accept our respectful obeisances.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada !!!

We hope to find You Gurudeva in good (better) health. As You know Gurudeva, we went to Cusco to know what kind of arragements we had to do to continue studying in Fine Arts, they told us that we can continue our studies starting in August so is the plan so far. The subjects have changed to better! more practice.

ASA - Aacha, hai!    TlgaSP.   He must have arranged this for you.

At the moment, we are living in our grandparents house(Lima) waking up early and closing the door to chant our rounds. We decided to tell our grandmother that we have also our rosary beads.. and she understood very well since she also has her own rosary beads. However, still with some debts, fewer debts than before. Following our principles nicely, we think we could be more strict!

HpS - Very nice.  Get some association. Get a girlfriend for a Japa partner: "How many rounds do you have done?"   ...  "Only 10-my cat was trying to eat my canary and I had to chase them around the kitchen for half an hour!" .... "O.K. See you after school!" 

We are visiting our parents house also very very often with so much love!. I remember when I could talk with You Gurudeva here in Lima, Your advice was that I just had to follow, chant 16 good rounds and principles and everything will be more auspicious and more harmonious, suffering finishes.. (things we forget because we dont read as we should) well, I thought “well thats what I am doing so I just have to continue”. Now, I can experience that the intention and heart apart from attention (and more) are also very important.. direcction or goals?.. still conditional really. Also more will. More Gayatris.

HpS - Fine print at the bottom of the contract: 16-enthusiastic rounds, 4-principles strictly ie. without regular morning program we can't chant enthusiastic rounds. If there are eggs in the cookies or (in the boy friend) then we will get stupid thoughts to disturb our rounds.

I also remember that when we talked some months ago, You mentioned the panca-anga-bhakti, one of them “worship a form of the Lord and Tulasi Maharani”. So we thought about it many times.. we were going to go and buy a deity so we could worship a form of the Lord Krsna!

HpS - We have our baby!! Picture below!

That was the plan until a god-sister we estimate [esteem] told us that it was better to wait for Him to come, when He wants it.

HpS - Hmm!   That is Rukmini, Candravali's mood.

So we went to Cusco, came back and when we go to our parents house, Dad gives us a murti of Sri Pancamukha Hanuman. We almost cried because it was what we were waiting. Now we need Your advice or permission Gurudeva, to worship and carry Them with us. We willl do our best to follow every word and advice. Forever thankful.

Que el Señor Nrsimhadeva lo proteja siempre.. we pray. Please forgive our offenses and our bad english Gurudeva.

Su aspirante a sirvienta,

Sita Lalita devi dasi.

HpS - Send picture of Pancha mukha Hanuman!   He is very frightening to the ghosts. Maybe you are destined to become the most powerful (White) witch in Peru (along with your Brother).

Picture.  Picture.   NO!    A drawning.

Nilachala Chandra Das

HpS - ASA -- O.K.   We sent short note through Yahoo.  Did you get it!   Please send some report on Kala chandji Dhama, Family!    Srinatha Das is moving to Dallas in June.

Spain 29 Aug to 12 Sep??

Dear Gurudeva:

Please, accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

How are you? Thank you for your frequent communication through Twitter. It helps me remember my position in this world. 

HpS - AGTSP. Sorry that it has taken 2-months to answer!  Getting little regulated in Tennessee after all this travel. We will ask Brother Ass to Tweet regularly.  He knows three songs: 1) I am here (so he doesn't lose contact with the flock, 2) Here is food, 3) Here is danger.

I am very busy all day long (Sadhana, family, School Teacher, CPO, Gurukula... ), but I am happy to be very connected to Krishna devotees.

I would like to know if you are considering to come to Spain. Surely, I am being very selfish...

HpS - Yes, we are looking for ticket now. What about August 29th - Sep 12th?   The ticket is about $850 from East Coast to MAD or BCN.   That would be $55/day.  Is it worth it?   Could we contribute enough in that time?   It would be Janmastami.

Hoping you are fine when reading this message.

Your servan,

Purnamasi devi dasi

HpS - Our respects to Jayanta Das, Nimai and all the devotees. We would like very much to come to Spain!

Trip report

7 years, 6 months ago by candra108_mukhi in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva

AGTSP

PAMHO

Tomorrow U will be in Richmond jaya ¡¡¡

ASA - This letter was sent 2-months ago.

Gurudeva this trip was so great for my Sadhana, mental and health in general

My coach says that one is the way it is everywhere. And it was really encouraging to have the sea just in front of me when I woke up. My whole life wanted to live in front of the ocean.  I joined FMP chant gayatri in front of the sea, attend Nrismhadeva deity, breakfast and then go to the beach for more chanting... lucky me thanks Srila Prabhupada there were vegetarians restaurants nearby, I avoided to eat grains,instead I took some fruit, milk and so forth

My rounds improved a lot, gayatris as well. I could feel me connecting with nature, etc. I met one girl, who I can tell she was religious, she was evangelical, she was so sweet. You can tell she was a GOD girl haha a Good girl.

On Siva Ratri I went to the Gita asram I met Patraka there, very nice to be with him, I went there to ask for blessings to the best of all vaisnavas in order to improve my faith and devotion. 

I really liked Madhumanjari's letter she is so so nice, some of us write here, I am doing this I am doing that and even if she is much more advance than many of us, she still feels she needs to improve I really admire her, and feel so fortunate to have her friendship and association

I talked with Jambavati m some godbrothers sent me money for her I will give it tomorrow, her father has lost his vision and he needs more medical cares...

In the afternoon I sent to You the Itinerary for your revision.

I feel more relaxed now, my new work needs me focus.. I am attaching some pictures of the resort I was hosted

Ulyses liked the stick from the sea that I brought to him haha, thank U Gurudeva.

HpS - It probably had incredible smells!

In one picture I am with my jacket with S from Super girl haha

I was careful with my pictures as U advice me, and in general, thank U for being so kind, and for always instruct me firmly but with love also

I am very excited about the spiritual retreat because it started on March 16th my birthday :)

Having U here is the most great gift ever

See You soon soon soon

Your eternal servant

Candramukhi dd

HpS - Hare Krsna!    We can always be on a "Vacation" with Krsna. Helping Him in His many adventures with many people!!!       Thank you for your news.   The more you improve your life, the more you improve the world.      ABAT!

Let us look at one more letter!!!  Then write a report about the GBC College.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada! 

Please accept my humble obeisances. 

Sorry I didn't reply to your message sooner.

HpS - ASA --- <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />  That goes for us like 50-times. Of course, we published in the 'Kapi Dhvaja' that it was impossible to answer anything but 'Urgent' letters while we were on tis Marathon trip. So here we are 'catching up' on our mail. Very nice to hear from you all!

Generally I recieve an email when you have edited my post, but it seems that it didn't come this time. And as I had not heard your response, I simply decided to check the website and I saw the 'Recent Content' section and under that 'My Content'. From there I saw you have already replied to my message a while ago ;) We learn something new everyday.

ASA - Some of us are slower! 

Yes! Peru sounds like a very interesting idea. I would like to visit. Perhaps when I finish year 12, I will be forever free. I may do whatever I want - travel. 

Yes, you do have a point. Haha. But these games occupy his whole day. He barely spends time with the family. Hopefully, over time his preferences and interests will change. 

Thank you for your answer. Your anwers are always satisfying ;) I very much like the analogy you provided. After I asked my father several questions, he also told me that Lord Krsna told Arjuna, "The intricacies of Karma are very difficult to understand."

I believe Rukmini's solution to her 'career' choice was marriage, wasn't it? In these contemporary times, women are looking to start their career before anything. Even if they were ready, a man must also be there first ;) Anyway, my father also used to say get married to a rich man. Perhaps he might be helping in planning something for me. Hehe.. Only time will tell. Maybe I won't ever be married.

ASA - Krsna is a jealous Dude (He is also very rich).

But this is why I want to travel after high school for a while. I hope it will allow me to 'find myself,' I guess you could say. I would like to visit all the overseas temples. Also, I want to go to the Polish tour and the Radhadesh Mellows and Kirtan Mela. It will be a nice experience.

HpS - Yes. Tirtha-yatra. Visiting Holy Places with the real focus of meeting spiritual people. There are probably 1000 people who are friends of your Father who would be very glad to host you and give you guided tour of their Yatra.

Gaura Purnima is coming up. I will be participating in a little drama. 

Thank you for your ever clarification to my doubts :) 

Maharaj, I hope for your everlasting good health condition so that you may visit us soon. This year perhaps? If not, next year maybe. Otherwise we may come and visit you ;) 

Hare Krsna! 

Your annoying ;) servant, 

Lakshmi 

HpS - ASA --- Been following the Kapi Dhavaja?  We keep it going out with news!    The tour was 6-six countries, 11-weeks and change of residence 22-times. Exhausting but well worth the investment.

Are you learning anything useful in school?  How is your family?  Has Bhima won the Lottery?  Temple???
