Is there anyone in this material world who is not being chased by the Tigers of Nescience at every moment in every place? Ooof! We got our selves into one big mess, but yes, it is good to change from suffering while traveling to suffering while sitting. Thank you very much. What about you?

We (the family) miss you tons and look forward to seeing you. We watch your lectures on youtube often streamed to the tv. My parents send their best and ask for blessings.

HpS - May they all advance devotional service!

Some news since the last update; I have a new job now (been about a month). It’s pretty great- keeps me busy, on my toes, pays better than the last one. Krishna is very kind and watching out… I was offered a leadership position and given a laptop and other goodies. It’s serious and I think it’ll take me further along career wise. It’s contracted so not sure where I’ll be after 2 years but its keeping my dependence on Krishna strong. I have my own place now also (Krishnas place). Trying to fill it with devotees but the youth association is weak here, but still trying! Sadhana is decent, sometimes my hours start at 5 am, so I get a good chunk of my rounds done during brahma murat [Muhurta https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhurta] (and can’t make it to the FMP). Please forgive me on that front.

ASA - We have the same problem. fighting with Tama-guna. You will get better at it if you fight. Then you will get even a better position to serve Krsna!!!

The last letter you sent had the most beautiful sentiment. You said to pray for a “decent dude” or “Ask Radharani to share Krishna with you…” haha. I thought about doing the latter and the funny thing is when I went to the alter, I saw how beautiful and perfect they were together, and couldn’t get myself to ask her. I told my friend AcyutaGopi the conundrum and she responded “I just want them both happy and smiling. The amazing thing is that’s exactly when she takes your hand and shares him. Its like magic. When you don’t ask for it, her heart melts.”

I thought about that and how her heart is an ocean of love with no shore and no bottom.

ASA - "Sri Vrndavana Mahimamrta, Nectarean Glories of Sri Vrndavana-dhama, by Srila Prabodhananda Sarasvati Thakura, (Translated by Kusakratha Dasa)
1.2 I am not strong enough to go to the far shore of the great nectar ocean of Vrndavana’s glories. Who can go there? However, because I love Vrndavana I will now dip into that ocean. I pray that this endeavor may become successful and bring an auspicious result."

Been thinking of that consistently. Still hoping secretly other prospects may blossom.

ASA: "Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) explains to Neo that the Matrix is an illusory world created to prevent humans from discovering that they are slaves to an external influence. Holding out a capsule on each of his palms, he describes the choice facing Neo:

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.

ALSO! Baltimore finally opened their new temple and RADHA MADHAVA were installed (Pictures included). They are breathtaking! And just pull pull pull on heartstrings. My eyes spurted out tears like fire sprinkles the first time I saw them. It was magical. Even more so, the first night, after Maha Abhishek and the eye opening, the pujari did a special darshan of Radha Madhava sleeping. The dieties were laying down and we donated gold and gems to be molded for their ratna-asana. I had never seen anything like it. The whole alter was lit with candles! Ive never heard or seen anything like it!

I hope you can come soon and be seen by them! They are truly splendid!

ASA - NGD, our host here, grew up in ISKCON there. He watched the installation on internet. Maybe he saw you? He told us about them.

That is all about I have to report. Learning to now fight maya [Maya] day by day with work and increasing responsibilities. Please send your blessings that everything I do is for Krishna and never to satisfy my own wicked desires. Please keep me engaged, and sheltered at your lotus feet gurudeva.

With much love and respect.

Your aspiring servant,

Sugopi dd

HpS-ASA -- Thank you. Your life is getting more and more interesting. Shocks us!

What about your father? Is the battle with the Dragon waiting up ahead for him and his friends?

<pre data-fulltext="" data-placeholder="Traducción" dir="ltr" id="tw-target-text"> Hare Krsna Maharaja My obeisances All glories to Srila Prabhupada All glories to Sri Sri Gaura Nitay With regard to your reply in the previous letter, the date of our marriage to Abhimanyu is July 8. Apparently Prabhu Jagad Guru already made reference of our invitation to the ceremony in the calendar of activities. We hope to attend, this will be in "Dhatri", Visvanath yoga center and Gita Vali, who very lovingly agreed to lend us their yoga center for this special day. It is located about 5 minutes walking from the temple. Let's hope everything is so that you can bless us with your presence. HpS - ASA -- Sounds very nice. It is a formality but not a formality without meaning. After you make these vows in front of Krsna, the devotees, your family, if you break them, everyone is going to say: They are a pair of brainless hens. Can you put up with this rascal, Abhimanyu Das in heaven and hell for the rest of your life? If you do, then pratically speaking your return to Krsna, your real shelter is practically speaking guaranteed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w70-1b9SCj0 good song??? On the other hand, I want to thank you for your instructions, try and try to carry them out, I await the mercy of Radhe, my spiritual master Srila Prabhupada, to allow me to advance in this path that has a response to everything and calm my anxiety every day. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to associate with you, please allow me to serve you in any way I will send my reports and continue to participate in the morning programs of Startmeeting. These days I did not do well with that because I have been very sick and I have not been able to wake up so early, since after that I have to go to work, I have Awakened with fever and very weak. I do not know if to justify with the disease of the body is well, perhaps my little spiritual advance makes me identify with the body and its symptoms and be negligent with spiritual activities, I do not know, those reflections make me confuse many times and work hard So as not to feel guilty, I know that Krishna Consciousness is not about guilt, do you understand me? ASA - Some guilt! (If we are guilty) but mostly enthusiasm eg. "I will learn from the that mistake, The Evil One shall not trick me again!" Takes time to put all the principles of Sadhana bhakti together to be always in the mode of goodness. We have heard that Srila Prabhupada said, that the only excuse for not coming to Mangala arati is an inability to crawl. The work, the health, the family, the Sankirtan, they all go better if we do Mangala arati, but it may take some time to learn that. My obeisances Maharaja I hope your health is well, that your travels also go well, preaching all over the world! Jayaaaa! </pre>

HpS - ASA -- Thank you! The blessings of a pious good lady never go in vain.

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Por favor acepte mis mas humildes reverencias a sus pies de loto.

HpS - ASA -- Pies de (mitad) loco.

Querido Gurudeva:

Como es de su conocimiento estoy casado con una persona que no es devota, cree en Dios pero no cumple dos principios regulativos (come carne y de forma muy esporadica consume bebidas embriagantes).

Segun las escrituras vedicas existen requisitos indispensable dentro del matrimonio para tener hijos concientes de Krishna, como por ejemplo: cumplir principios regulativos, cantar un minimo de 50 rondas, tener un tipo de alimentacion si uno quiere hijo varon o quiere hija mujer, esperar que la concepcion sea en un dia auspicioso, etc. etc. etc.

Mi esposa como toda mujer esta planificando tener un hijo a futuro, la pregunta es:

¿Cuales son los requisitos minimos que ella deberia cumplir para que yo pueda tener un hijo consciente de Krishna ?

Comprendo que en su posicion de Swami, este tipo de temas no son de su agrado, y quiza le este incomodando con mi pregunta, pero me gustaria que haga un esfuerzo en con responder mi pregunta.

Siempre muy agradecido por su atencion prestada me despido muy afectuosamente y agradecido por su tiempo prestado.

Atte. Su eterno sirviete Jiyada Nrsmha Das.

HpS - ASA -- Hare Krsna, Prabhu! TlgaSP. Es gran placer oir de Vd. Nos vemos en unos dias en Cocha bam ba ba, no??? Basicamente Vd ha dicho todo lo que yo conzco en esta tema. No, soy muy envolucrado con detalles de Ashrama de Grhastha entonces tiene que hablar con alguien como El Mathuresa Das , no?

No tengo una citación, pero recuerdo que la hija de un Raksasa se acercó al sabio Vishrava para obtener hijos y él estaba enojado con ella, pero concedió su deseo y dijo que ella obtendría un Raksas feroz, Ravana, por un niño.
Situación complicada.
Habla con varios buenos devotos, Grhasthas, cuéntanos los resultados aquí.
Queremos ayudar a todos a subir!

Maybe you will become he father of a Great and Powerful and Famous Demon. Ha! Ha! Ha!

Balabhadra, Subhadra, Jagannathadeva Ki Jaya!!!

All gloies to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Patita Pavana Srila Hanumatpresaka Swami.

Beloved Guru Maharaja.

Please accept my most humble obeisances.

I am really happy to be able to write You and say that one more week and the 16 complete rounds and 4 principles fulfilled, I continue reading the CC, chapter 21 of Madhya Lila, chapters 20 and 21, in addition to the conversation between Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Ramananda Raya are to re-read and study them.

I feel very ashamed to have asked You to remove my previous letter, it is so difficult to me to ask favors and even with Sri Guru, I would usually ask You to forgive my offenses, but I prefer and deserve to be punished for this and my innumerable offenses and sins.

I still do not know how to connect with Starmeeting [StartMeeting], but I will see how to do it, that morning I will listen to Your japa chant and it was the most wonderful thing that happened to me in a long time.

We have 4 wheels of two meters in diameter, and endless helm, a rear axle and a front train to make the car of Jagannatha, we have them more than a year ago, unfortunately the plans were in nothing, hopefully Krsna bless us and we can continue with the project.

I still do not communicate with prabhu Maturesh, but it will be soon.

We were continuing together with the mataji reading the SB until the 7th chapter of the first chant, which we have stopped for obvious reasons, I hope they resolve soon.

Your sinful disciple, amalakaruna das.

ASA - AGTSP paoho... So nice to hear from you! Please excuse us if we have posted things improperly. We read your letter and then edited it to what we thought was proper level as mentioned in our file: http://www.jayarama.us/kd/lte.htm . We also did the same for letters from Mataji. The Blog is a place to talk with some confidentiality and get help.

I have my past, present and future. I have to deal with them alone with me and Krsna. I also have to deal with them in the association of devotees. Such a fantastic opportunity!

Little puncture. Squeeze out the poison, forever?

PAMHO!!

Thank you so very much of your letters.

It's sometimes a test of faith, huh, ...........Not too much spare time now, for I engaged in putting up again the 3d-printer, extruding one (watching for powder one, if it could be part of the service, seva).

Still extruder , even though in library is same kind of here, must be fixed. Queue is almost one month long. I have 3d files for very nice version of Tesla turbine, it is something extraordinary, even though history hasn't treated this invention well, as haven't many of his inventions.

It is quite similar, in my thought, that is Victor Schauberger's implosion effect, in which he says whole nature works, not in explosion. This is still even hair raising, what Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati said about the Vedic Planetarium. 4 stories. movin............. star wars... no.. hehe.... but yes... it means antigravity (at least finally). I know some examples how technically some more hostile forces have made them. Schauberger was finally in 1935 persuaded by one such force to make the box with the fire inside, from vyaamanika shastra.

And I know how your Highness's [My Holiness, Ja, Ja!] own country has made them, not exactly but. It is 3 machines in triangular shaped, 72 meters one side, craft. The machines are mercury whirl type machines(20.000 or some times in a minute), and would cause 88% antigravity.

HpS - ASA -- We had a copy of D. N. Shukla's, "Vastu" 1 & 2, and I remember he mentioned them not so much from the technical aspect but from the social significance. The way he described it was as something like the Ferris Wheel and the 1893 Chicago World Exhibition. The King with family would sit in it and it would go round slowly in circle and then rise into the air and then come down and everyone would watch and applaud. Then the King and the Family would go and judge the Giant Pumpkin Competition and the rest of society would try it.

Dr. Sukla's comment was in terms of Vedic India had all these things but they considered them toys. Technology was for simple living and high thinking.

The problem usually, if this all is a magnet type craft, is that it would make the time go slower in the craft and in the vicinity of it. That is the theory. But actually Tesla knew still more, for his disciple Ott made UFOs flying with gems and first electricity, but finally even with light, big big crystal and light, says his disciple Ralph Ring, who I tried to contact. With no result still.

Personally..... I guess, Maharaja. I just have to learn to remember right. Thank you so much. So very much of your patience. The green colour. I mean was the patience... 4 stories.... wow............. everything can be arranged. That's for sure :) Maharaja :). yellow. To warm it up, I engage us, the people, to do Tesla Turbines and Tesla valvulars with 3d-printers,,,,,valves with no moving parts.......!

As attachments Tesla Ifo picture (Ott too with real photos, that one), with no own power source, but the source he thought would have been the towers similar to the Wardencliffe tower. But that would still have been too easily centralized power, is my still my thought, at least in present days. But what do I know about these... a little, I know about power. Only my own hate.... but Maharaja I am excited... we are excited. What functions there is Krishna ...... such a nice watch Prabhupada wears.

HpS - Two watches, no???

P.S. It is in Gremlings movie that when they eat first time they develop from those little furry Gismos to the real GREMLINGS,, hahaha. yes. many thoughts about technology it brings. And that couldn't be but Krishna as paramaatma who gave these signs. Is what I can see from here... Prabhupada is so great, as are his watches too :) :) :) I have sometimes difficulties to remember though that it is all Lord Caitanya's mercy, so I wanted to participate in culture making too, by a puppetry, and the play is selected to take away the bad dreams. All glories to Lord Caitanya, and Prabhupada. HK

HpS - ASA -- Thank you.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

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

First of all, thank you very much for your letter, and sorry for answering so late, but from 27th april to 1th may, I have been with Yadunandana Swami Maharaja in Avila, to attend the bi-annually meeting of "Encuentro Iberico de Yoga" organized by the portuguese yoga association, and I didn't check the email this days. It has been a very nice experience.

HpS - Jaya! Preaching to Maitreya Muni et al.

Talking about the link "understanding about Diksa guru", I have read it completely and I accept it. I only have one question, the next day of the annual report is 13th January 2018?

HpS - ASA -- No, Dec. 19th. "Our" Vysapapuja Day. Always day before Disappearance of Jiva Goswami. We will put notice in the Blog and hope that we get lots of other reports even before that.

Currently I keep on following all the principles and chanting the 16 rounds (but still not of good cuality [quality], I hope it will change in future) and attending Mangala arati, and morning program in Nueva Vraja Mandala, and will be here until 11th May to attend GBC meeting (following the request of Yadunandana Swami), then will come back to Torrevieja (Alicante) and will come back to Nueva Vraja Mandala at the beginning of July till the end of July. This weekend I'll start Bhakti Sastri course with Yadunandana Swami.

On the other hand, of course I would like to have a closer contact with you, not only formally for Diksa, so I would like to ask about the posibilities of visiting you where ever you are (USA, Peru, India) in future and maybe spend some time in an Ashrama doing seva (as I'm doing in Nueva Vraja Mandala).

ASA - If you look at the Calendar in the Kapi Dhvaja you can see our program and start to think about plans to join with us. Of course, we hope to get to Spain as soon as possible. Then we can all be together on the transcendental plane.

Please accept my humble obeisances.

Bhaktin Maria

ASA - Nice photos! More and more interest in Yoga.
