Dandavat Pranam

HpS - ASA -- And our Pranams to you and all the ISKCON Manipuri Bhakta Vrnda!

In the BRS Sloka 2:1:113 Translation – Another example from Stotraratna of Yamunacarya (60) – O Ramachandra, best of the Radhu [Raghu?] dynasty! You are so merciful to the crow which packed [pecked?] Sita’s breast, but which then offered respects to You. O Krsna, so forgetful of others sins! You gave attractive impersonal liberation to Sisupala who offended You for many lifetimes. Tell me what offense exists in him that You would not tolerate?   …….. The reference to omitting offenses for many lives (pratibhavam) indicates tht Krsna is superior to Rama because Krsna liberated him.

* Footnote : Jayanta, son of Indra, took the form of a corw and packed ber breast, and Rama sent His arrows after the  crow. The crow finally surrendered to Rama, and lost only his right eye.

Guruji! What is the underlying story mentioned above? Please let me know the story

HpS - I looked for the story in www.vedabase.com. There is nice Ramayana summary there by Krsna Dharma Das, but I didn't find the story. As I remember from ready many Ramanyanas Indra wanted to test Lord Rama to see if He was actually Bhagavan. So while Sita and Rama were lying, resting, side by side in the jungle, he took the form of a crow and then began to claw the breasts of Mother Janaki even drawing blood. This is so horrible, no? There can be no justification for this. Lord Rama saw this and then empowered a blade of grass and it flew after the crow to kill it. Indra flew away but could not escape but then came to Lord Rama bowing down and asking for forgiveness. Rama said that He would forgive him but after being invoked the Astra had to do some damage, so Indra sacrificed one eye.

I will go an participate ISKCON foundation day at Manimandir, Imphal which will be celebrated there on the 25th Dec. 2017.

 Accept my most humble obeisances, dear Maharaja!

  Dear Maharaja, we celebrated Vyasa puja yesterday, it was one of the most beautiful experiences I've lived so far, I hope Krishna blesses you with good health so we can continue receiving your enlighting teachings and find our path to spiritual enlightening to be good devotees. I've been attending to Mangal Aarti every day lately, trying to organize everything so I can continue to assist, doing service,  and also improving my chanting every day. Following the principles has been my main task since I learned about Krishna consciousness as chanting my rounds as well, but I've felt close to the process by attending mangal aarti, it has changed my life. I wanted to ask for your shelter, it's my most deep and humble desire of becoming one of your disciples. I want it to ask you if you remember the letter i sent you with your disciple Japa Nama Rama Das, with the draw of the monkey dancing to Lord Jagannath, back in July? I humbly ask for shelter under your teachings but never received an answer to my question. I don't mean to be impatient (in fact I am mostly, but Krishna knows how much I've been working on getting better and control it). my association with devotees its centered on charing with devotees who live in the temple and the ones that come for Sunday's festival. I'm planning to go to Peru next year. 

Bhaktina Andrea. 

HpS - Thank you. Thank you for getting closer to the Temple. Yes!    Thank you for the drawing. I can't remember exactly where he went but I remember thinking, "Oh, he can go here very nicely!"

Initiation. Did you read our Guru-tattva, how we understand the role of Guru?

Here is the address in Spanish. I think it is pretty current, but the English location also follows. What do you think about it?

Doy gracias a Krisna por Haberle conocido y ser el mejor Guru, mis mas respetuosas reverencias.

Feliz dia de Su advenimiento.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!! All glories to Guru Maharaj HpS! PAOHO at Your lotus feet..again and again....

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Happy Vyasa Puja....Thank you for everything....thank you for the Spanish....thank you for letting us offer Pasta yesterday....yet getting in Spannish only today....You guided us so well...we are soooooooooo happy. We just offered Pasta prepared by Joybhim Prabhu who is a dedicated Brahmachari, that was a special preparation from him. The rest offerings included cakes, fruits, sweets, and the usual Manipuri Prasadam. This coincidence is a transcendental connection....we waited on 19th for a reply from Guru Maharaj....we were a little disappointed as we wanted something special to offer to Radha Krishnachandra on 20th. Somehow Pasta came to our mind and we requested Jaibhim Prabhu to prepare......Radha Krishnachandra liked it so much...hope Guru Maharaj liked it too....the rest of us liked it sooooo much. Thank you Guru Maharaj.

HpS - Seems that our Ista-devata, Lord Nrsmha-deva, likes it.

Sending some photos.......glorification by HH Bhakti Vyasa Teertha Swami and Banamali Prabhu....

Your servant always,

Sarada Gaurangi DD

HpS - Thank you. We made some comment on the ceremony in the letter by Yamunesvara Das.  AgtSP...  AgttAV.!!... Respects to Maharaja and Vana-mali Das!

Two cakes!!

All Glories to A.C. Prabhupada, Sripada Maharajam,

All Glories to Gouranga Mahaprabhu and Goura Bhakta Vrnda Ki Jay!

Guru Maharaja, Dandavat Pranam!

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Guruji Maharaja's padmacharan that after Guruji's reply I have more courage for reading more and more books.

Yestarday, we three members from Thoubal participated Guruji's Viyas Pujah at Imphal ISKCON Mandir. Dr. Sarda D D and the members of Imphal organised Viyas Pujah very successfully. Bonomaly Prabhu is the main talker of Guruji and Sarda and myself also talk some minutes with sincere and whole heartedly . The total members present in the Pujah and took prasadam are around 170. I inform all initiated bhaktas but they could not turn up, it may be their different reasons.

Guruji, could you upload some new lectures in this Blog or in other waveside. It can be downloaded and hear in any time in many topics.

HpS - Hare Krsna. Thank you for the news. I am mostly a very selfsh person, so any Vyasa-puja that sees any goodf qualities in us is actually glorification of the more qualified members of the Parampara before us, with us and after us. We try.

There is one devotee, Srinatha-krsna Das who is in India now, but will be back in a week or so and he has the link to some lectures. If you want to dig for them there are lectures at e-sanga.org. We present class each Thursday by internet and they have them recorded, but not by our name, so you have to look through the old classes. Ask again in a couple of weeks.

So many Srila Prabhupada lectures!!!

After mangal arati, I am chanting 8 rounds in the morning before starting any morning works, then reading books, preparation for office etc.

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das
