Hare Krishna Dear Gurudeva 

Its being a while since i wrote i am very ashamed 
to have taken so long , i always think that  
unless that i dont have updates i am not worthy of writing , I hope you are well and in the company of Hanuman , Lord Rama and Sita .

HpS - AGTSP!!!!   paoho.   You can just write, "We chanted the Mahamantra one time today and looked for people who might be interested in buying a book on Yoga."
 
I am still having full service at the temple making the sunday and week days garlands, i wanted to let you know we saw there is a an increase of new devotees interested in Krishna conciousness so Prahbu actunanda [Acutya-anandana?] and I decided doing a follow up  with the young devotees i am so happy they are very active ,3 of them took shelter in HH Bhakti Sundar Maharaja and getting ready for initiation. I am so happy I can help out with this new service, its being 4 months of the follow up with the new ones .

Outside of the temple there are some walls in the street that have some ugly spray painting this saturday i am decided to paint over them and put Krishna name in sanscrit so it will be sacred . At my work my coworkers ask me alot of krishna and makes me happy i can speak to them about his glories , when i can i bring them cake prasad that i make Banana cakes or ladhu ,some of them got from me some books of Srila Prabhupada its a humble sankirtan i know its not much but i am trying.

ASA -    ---[SUPER]---

I am trying to form a group of young devotees for Food for life but for the homeless at night .

Ratha Yatra is coming son June 3 i am so excited they ask me for a new flyer for the festival and Snana Yatra I am working on them as soon as i have them ill will send it to you Gurudeva,

HpS - Jayananda Das used to make them also.

also a friend of mine from Venezuela is coming to panama the 31 of May she is a tattoo artist and chef as well, into Krisna conciousness , when i was in venezuela last year i sent her japa beads and many books she chants everyday and is a vegetarian. She is very inspired by you Gurudeva ,she will like to meet you and be instructed , i am so glad she gets out of the situation there she was so eager to help out with service for the Lord , frustrated she couldnt do any temple service . Its so beautiful how just talking about the Lord inspires and moves so many .

Dear Maharaja: 

All the glories to Sri Sri Radha Krishna

All the glories to you
Please accept my humble obeisances

Thanks for answer my letter, your answers have been very helpful.
Now I find myself in a different situation, my moods are changing constantly, when I'm doing service, chant, or I'm with devotees I feel very happy. Meanwhile there are situations that make me feel stress and anxiety. They are related to my job and the home maintenance.

I've been working at the same place more than two years, it became repetitive and boring, I work lots of hours and I come back home very exhausted. Having to pay the rent and bills stresses me because it's a big part of my salary. Always I'm going to have to deal with this kind of things. Sometimes I think about to change my job or home, but that isn't going to resolve it.
 
After to spend the weekend at the temple or with devotees is really hard to return to work on Monday, especially after Sunday Feast, Sunday became in my favorite day.

Thanks Maharaja for your mercy
To serve you
With love Bhaktin Carol

HpS - ASA -- Maybe you were an Egyptian Pharoh in your last life and you made lots of people work hard every day hauling enourmous stones into place for your pyramid, and now you have to pay for that.   Of course, maybe you were something else.

Pray for Krsna to engage us in His service.   Then whatever external situation presents itself we can basically accept it as the Lord's will. Of course He may be offering us the chance to change our situation also.  We push to improve things for our service but don't get violent and then depend on Krsna. So, many times we see obvious miracles and something happens. Other times we see that this strange situation is what He wants and we accept it.

If you are stuck in a booring job then there is the opportunity to think about whatevery you want to think about or sing whatever songs you want to sing, Memorize songs. Don't be too worried about the roof over your head or the food on your plate. Don't be negligent but put Sankirtan first!

Nice photos!!

All Glories to Sri HpS Guru Maharaja, Sripada Maharaja and A.C. Bhativedanta Swami Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna, Mataji,
AGTSP paoho.   We see that your letter is headed, 
Report Sadhana, confidential", but as we explain in the description of the Blog, Letters to the Editor file that should be linked to th Kapi Dhvaja, we are all B'caris here and cannot hadnle confidential correspondences with ladies. So we won't read any further because we would have to make the contents publick.

Just write about things in a general sense here and then if there are confidential details that we can handle we can arrange confidential correspondences with a proper gentleman (and lady) to help us.
Hare Krsna!   Of course, Krsna is the confidential friends of all sincere souls!

Gurudeva how are you? I can not imagine how you feel after so many years of practicing spiritual life, how you see people, being able to see more than others.

Once sad after leaving the service of Pujari in Wilson, traveling for the first time out of Peru to Cochabamba, to accompany him on his tour and met such kind, educated and good devotees, I returned later in my beginnings of Sankirtan with the group of P. Aravinda, and we share nice experiences with the Bolivian family. That was the beauty of that service, to go and come free for the world, and to always find friends everywhere.

On Sunday Chosica's show was beautiful, I found many of my Jambavanitos from last year, what I like about the relationship with children, is their purity and kindness. I had a nice interview with P. Mathuresh, I was so excited about my former colleagues at NIMSAR that I asked P. Mathuresa that they will be in charge of BS, on the subject of examination administration. And that I would take from my proposal the part that interests me most, form the area of ​​the group of devoted educators and projects, So my first task entrusted by P. Mathuresh and P. Karuna is to recruit all educators. Within a month it will only be seen in the National Board who is approved to teach in ISKCON - Peru, "the finger of Caesar", What nerves! In a month everything is decided in National Board, both projects and everything will be decreed.

Then my team will meet and rethink our project, as suggested, we will serve the education officer of the National Board. Gurudeva we wish to be an ASA branch. And we need a new name for this area, can you give us one as nice as the last one? One of the current projects in my area is Sunday School. We need constant counseling. As for the meetings with you Candra and LAD, I can on Saturdays any time, and from 5 PM on Mondays and Thursdays. Please Gurudeva give us his mercy, so that we can attend and have your association.

May Krsna bring him soon to the land of the Inca.

HpS - Hare Krsna!   AGTSP  paoho.   Let us bring these projects back to the level of Normal and no longer Urgent, is O.K.? <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />  Right now it does not seem necessary to have any official branches of ASA in Peru. Let us just see how we can work with Karuna Krsna Das to get things organized and if we need separate institutions like ASA to be working there formally, then we can make formations then.

What will the Kids do for the Pada-yatra?  Many flags?  Go visit Sunday schools in other churches, Jewish, Mormon, Evangelicos?

=========================

Gurudeva cómo está?, no me imagino  cómo se siente después de tantos años de practicar la vida espiritual, como ve a las personas, pudiendo ver más que los otros.

Alguna vez triste después de dejar el servicio de pujari en Wilson, viaje por primera vez fuera del Perú a Cochabamba, para acompañarlo en su gira y conocí a tan amables, educados y buenos devotos, volví después en mis inicios de Sankirtan con el grupo de P. Aravinda, y compartimos bonitas experiencias con la familia de Bolivia. Eso era lo bello de ese servicio, ir y venir libre por el mundo, y reencontrar siempre a amigos en todas partes.

El domingo el programa de Chosica estuvo hermoso, re-encontré muchos de mis Jambavanitos del año pasado, lo que me gusta de la relación con los niños, es su pureza y bondad. Tuve una bonita entrevista con P. Mathuresh, vi tan entusiasmados a mis ex colegas de NIMSAR, que le pedí a P. Mathuresa que ellos se encargarán del BS, del tema de la administración de examinación. Y que yo tomaría de mi propuesta la parte que más me interesa, formar el área del grupo de devotos educadores y proyectos, Entonces mi primera tarea encomendada por P. Mathuresh y P. Karuna es reclutar a todos los educadores. Dentro de un mes recién se verá en Junta Nacional quien es aprobado para enseñar en ISKCON - Perú, “el dedo del César”, Qué nervios! En un mes todo se decide en Junta Nacional, ambos proyectos y todo se decretará.

Entonces mi equipo se reunirá y replantearemos nuestro proyecto, como sugirió, serviremos a el encargado de educación de la Junta Nacional. Gurudeva deseamos ser una rama de ASA. Y necesitamos un nuevo nombre para esta área, nos puede dar uno tan bonito como el anterior? Uno de los proyectos vigentes de mi área es la Escuela Dominical, Necesitamos asesoramiento constante. En cuanto las reuniones con Ud. Candra y LAD, puedo los sábados cualquier hora, y a partir de las 5 PM los lunes y jueves. Por favor Gurudeva denos su misericordia,  para poder asistir y tener su asociación.

Que Krsna lo traiga pronto a la tierra del Inca.

ASA - Nos es igual!

Un dia DIJO "Como lo haces Es Como seras" Y Que El Tiempo es ilusión, eso me Puso en perspectiva. Gracias GM !! Jay SP !!!

Hoy Usted DIJO Que Hay Que constuir el caracter, y me inspiro Mucho.

Como se hace GM para Construir el caracter?

ASA - Puede desarrollar sus habitos. Poco a pocos ellas profudan y converten en parte de su caracter. 

Muchas gracias por leerme, espero Que Esté siempre muy bien de Salud Para Seguir inspirando Nuestros Procesos en Consciencia de Krishna!

HpS - Thank you. What are you doing now?  Daily activities, projects?

Hare Krishna !!! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!! All glories to Guru Maharaj HpS!! And all glories...all glories....all glories to the Lettuce feet!!!

HpS - ASA -- Thank you! Romain Lettuce, Iceberg Lettuce!

So far..so good....except for the minor hiccups.....!! A local daily carried the news of opposing the construction of ISKCON temple at Kakching. All glories to the Seshanag resting blissfully inside the Bhoomi. Banamali Prabhu says we will continue with the work. We are all sparrows...desperately waiting for Garuda to notice us!!

Last Sunday, as we were going for Nagarkirtan, a mataji followed us and requested us to perform kirtan at her home. We did. Then we were invited to two more houses. We  are invited for another house programme next sunday. Thank you so much Guru Maharaj for your mercy.

Aahhh....so relevant....that fish eating Japanese part!! The Japanese came as far up to Moirang,about 40kms from Imphal and they had to surrender to the Allied Forces after the Hiroshima bombings. Did they leave some of their DNA behind?? Why do our people love (eating) fish ...so much???

HpS - ASA - Interesting??

Now the Dharamsala part......now....now....are you doing some past life regression on me ??....hahahahaha

Then they came to a Dharmashala and it was . . . [Describe the Dharmashala, the Deities, people, building...activities]

Paintings...paintings......lots of them.....gold...liquid gold paintings...beautiful dances....so many symbols in their paintings...and yet I can't decipher them!! Does'nt even look like a Dharamshala......looks more like a meditation hall!!!

And the loud, sweet chants and hymns...could I ever make head or tail of those soul wrenching chants!!!

Lanky, bright faced, wrinkles...as old as time.....eyes so full of wisdom.....do they really belong to Homo Sapiens?? Am wondering....as they happily share their food with the monkeys around!!

Seems like they worship the Sun God.....with a kaleidoscope of colours merging into the rays of the sun.....

Just coming out of that trance.....hehehhehehe

I remain,

yes to the four regulative principles ...all my life,

Sarada Gaurangi DD

P.S. Sending some pics Guru Maharaj.  Our Radha Krishnachandra on Ram Navami. Nrshimha on Nrshimha Caturdasi.The elderly couple who has generously donated the land is eclosed......the Bhoomi Puja....and The Prasadam......

HpS - After you (she or he or it) came to the Meditation Hall one of the Monks approached you and they asked: _______________
