Hare Krsna, maharaja please accept my obeissance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to you!

it s been a long time since I don t write anymore but my last letter was like chaos letter, haha, and Im sorry for that last year was intense for me in many aspects but mainly my espiritual life.

now Im traveling with some devotees aroun europe and united kingdom i meet many devotees and many Gurus here the asociation is little bit diferent but i feel great. I want to thank you all your advices when I was so bad you answer me with one verse of the SB and I have that verse deep in my heart. 

Other thing is that I feel compromise with you because I told your desciples I want to take iniciation with you but at the end nothing happend and I meet other Guru here and have more comunication and relation I dont know if this is bad or if some persons are going to be mad with me.

HpS - No, is fine. We are all working in ISKCON with Srila Prabhupada as our Acharya.

but Im just trying to be sincere I dont know if this is the right way but please forgive all my ofenses

YS: Bhaktin Fernanda

HpS - Thank you. Hare Krsna. Please engage all of us in your service to Krsna.

AGTSP!

AGTYOU!

Gracias por tus respuestas. Les deseo que su viaje a Perú y su prédica tengan mucho éxito! Y que este muy feliz con hermosa asociación.

Con respecto a su pregunta ... oh, perdón Gurudeva, al parecer, debo hablar sólo de mí misma cuando hablo de mi vida espiritual. Si es así, asi será a partir de ahora. I always remenber  haber oído que el progreso espiritual es individual y es una realidad.

Disculpe también para hacer frente a su forma de mencionar Jaganatha, Baladeva y Subhadra. Veo que incluso en aquellas cosas más pequeñas, Usted nos enseña que podemos seguirlo pero nunca imitarlo. Gracias por enseñarnos siempre.

Whit respecto a su pregunta sobre las franco rounds, dice que prefiere decirle personalmente sobre su vida espiritual.  once I dreamed that you franco were talking together, I would be very happy if I ever saw them like this.

Con respecto a su pregunta sobre los devotos que dan clases en el centro predica aquí, yo no sé mucho. Vi a  Prabhu jagad bandhu y sé que p Keshava Ram también da clases. Casi nunca vamos a los programas.

Sigo tratando de hacer Mangal y gaura artikas, rondas, lecturas, dando la dirección del centro de la prédica a las personas favorables y tratando de ensayar.

 leí que los Manipuris son descendientes de Arjuna Pándava, de uno de sus hijos (babhruvahana) pensé en Usted y su gusto por manipur. Pensé que podría ser una de las razones ..

HpS - Solo los Reyes estan descendientes.

Franco está construyendo una casa rodante. Vamos a vivir allí ahora. El alquiler en Córdoba es muy caro y además, es divertido, pero, todas las casas que ocupamos, se venden pronto. Recuerdo que en BsAs pasé la misma. Una vez que un lugar se vendió a la semana que estaba, se había puesto a la venta hace cinco años. Es muy raro.

.HpS - Debe ser agenta de ventas de inmovilares?

Vi hermosas danzas de Sri del avatar stotra, el que más me gusta es en Manipur estilo. Es fascinante! Les pido sus oraciones para ofrecersela a Usted.

HpS - Vayase A manipur

Por favor, disculpe cualquier ofensa cometido en esta carta.

Gracias por su ejemplo admirable, sobre todo, por verlo feliz.

 Hare Krishna!

Siempre deseando complacerlo: rjpj dd

ASA - Adelante

reply to guruvastakam

8 years, 3 months ago by nataraj in Personal Sadhana Reports

hare krishna, dear guru maharaj, please accept my dandavat pranams. All glories to srila prabhupad. Honestly i dont chant the guruvastakam with great vigor. I feel like i chant it mechanically, but i will make a sincere effort to do so with offering a wick.

your servant

HpS - We must chant with ENTHUSIASM (Hari Bolo!). Enthusiasm means intelligence. That comes when we actually know what the words mean. Learn the word-by-word meaning and then chant with meaning for your Deitys of Radha-Krsna: We aren't qualified to chant HK/HR for You during this most intimate time of the day, but we are worshipping this kind (vande guru...) of guru and so please accept this little music, Japa, to enhance your pastimes. 

Getting up time

HpS - Do you chant the Gurvastakam with great vigor. Offer a stick of once we on your altar?

personal Sadhana Report - FMP

.Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaj

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

I have been chanting 16 rounds everyday (Most of the rounds in the morning). After initiation, I feel it has gotten a bit easier to chant rounds with more focus. Although I still have a long way to go, it is all because of your causeless mercy. I am following the four regulative principles strictly.

When I met Caru Prabhu after my initiation, he was fondly remembering the Berkeley days when he was the temple president and you were the treasurer. He was telling me that you would walk to the bank everyday with a bag of money and would carry a gun along with you.

HpS - Someone would do that only on the days when he had a lot of money!

He was thinking why it never occured to anybody to drive you to the bank instead of letting you walk.

HpS - There was no one around and it was only 1-1/2 blocks.

Sankirtan wise, I join the FMP whenever possible. It is really enriching to join my godbrothers and godsisters and see their loving exchanges with you. I try to meditate on your short talks during the FMP when I chant.

We also have a conference call with devotees in SLC at 5.00 am during weekdays and 6 .00 a.m during weekends, where we read scriptures for 30 mins and chant together. We finished Bhagavad Gita and are currently reading Isopanisad. I also attend Friday home programs and Saturday temple feast program.

I have been doing book distribution. I have taken the responsibility in SLC temple to facilitate book distribution by maintaining the inventory and accounts. The reception to Prabhupad's books has been amazing. In our 4 outings so far, we have distributed 314 books, mainly BG and SSR. The accounting part is difficult for me. I need to streamline the process.

We also started a Bhakti Yoga Club in University of Utah last semester. We are now updating the facebook pages, websites and completing paperwork in the university to get ready for the fall semester.

HH Bhaktimarga Swami and Madhava Prabhu are coming to SLC next weekend. All of us are trying to invite as many people as we can for the program on Saturday.

I have created a soundcloud account to collate all your lectures in one place (https://soundcloud.com/user-938973912). I have uploaded a couple of your lectures from Boise there to start with. I would like to do this service and need your blessings for me to go ahead with it.

Your Servant

Srinatha Krsna Das

HpS - ASA - Your report and news are so inspiring. You can see from the DTC that we are running through the jungle with monkeys trying to through coconuts at us. We are just hoping to meet someone who understands our deep desires.

Very, very, very best wishes for you Sankirtan. Ask us if we can be of service. Back in USA in a few weeks.

Honesty part II

8 years, 3 months ago by candra108_mukhi in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krsna Beloved Gurudeva

AGTSP

PAMHO

I hope this meets U in really good health!

Many years ago I wrote a letter to U titled honesty. And I know that by that time U already know me very well.

I have received many text messages, emails, phone calls, etc. From devotees who want advice, or want to know about your activities.. And I feel useful. But also with a lof of responsibility. They take me as an example, a guide and honestly I do not feel like that right now. My life is not the one that I want and that frustrates me a lot. So I do not have utsaha. 

I just read a letter in which you reply why feel sorry?? I wish I could have your realization any become detached from this delusion.

I hope to have your association will help. I know it will. But saying I am good I am good GM everything is Ok.. is not the way..

Please kindly forgive all my offenses

See U at the airport soon !!!!
