8 years, 8 months ago by bgopurala in Personal Sadhana Reports

Maraj, it is my pleasure meeting you at ISKCON temple in Atlanata to day. Thank you for your time. Bala Ganesh 

HpS - Hare Krsna!    It was just as refreshing to meet your good self. Usually we try to respond after about three days to this Blog mail, but while traveling like this it is a little slower. We publish the Kapi Dhvaja every Full and New Moon days with our general news and then the DTCs (Diary of a Traveling Creature) have our intermediate and daily updates. Our big project now is this symposium on Art and the Sacred 2018 in Lima, Peru. You will come?

Hare Krishna, dear Gurumaharaja, Pamho, AGTSP!
I've been trying to understand the answer to my last letter. Actually your  intelligence is very sophisticated and sometimes I can not follow it.
In any case, in my little understanding I have some clear things.
1. I want to continue helping Srila Prabhupada, ISKCON, you in this great educational service. I do not care what happens to me on the road. Poor, rich, unemployed, etc.
2. I want to work for ISKCON and for ASA simultaneously. Acintya tattva beda beda tattva. I still believe that it may be possible to have my, our, own institution and work in coordination with ISKCON and serve the devotees as a priority public.
3. I believe in formality. I will continue my role of teacher and at the same time I will try to promote by all means the formalization. P. Maturesh, agrees on the proposal to be an examiner Bhakti sastri. M. Candra mukhi agrees to be an administrator. I will develop the academic part. We just need to get to work on the details about it. Form a minimal team. There are other devotees who want to help.
4. I think soon, when you come to Peru, we can revive NIMSAR with a more mature perspective. Making some adjustments.
5. I strongly believe in the development scheme of a project that you always quote. People (Who am I ?, Who are we?, Plans and Resources The most difficult thing, as I see it so far is to find a team, but we are struggling to make it happen.

Well, they're just a few ideas.
Please give me your blessings to continue doing my service. I could not enroll in the University because of problems with documents. I hope I can fix that for next semester. Anyway I will be able to finish it by the end of 2018, if everything goes well, so that when you put your base in Peru for 2019-2021 we will be able to once and for all found our educational institution with all the formalities required by the Peruvian government for the glory of Srila Prabhupada, founder Acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.
Goura prema anande!

HARE KRSNA!

DEAR GURUDEVA,

PAMHO, AGTSP!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT REGARDING THIS SITUATION.

I BELIEVE YOUR INSTRUCTION IS CONFIRMATION OF PARAMATMA WITHIN MY HEART.

IN THE MAIN TIME IT LOOKS I WILL START TO WORK WITH SCHOOLS AFTER

EASTER AND I WILL BE ENGAGED WITH THAT FULL-TIME, THEY ACEPTED MY VERSION OF "A DAY IN INDIA" ALSO.

I WILL FIND THE RIGTH TIME TO SPEAK TO MY BOOSS AND TELL HIM I WILL NOT DO THE WAITRESS PART (ALTHOUGH I FEEL HE MAY NEVER ASK ME ANYWAY, AS I HAVE PLENTY OF WORK IN RECEPTION AND ENTERTAINMENT, AND NOW WITH THE SCHOOLS).

HpS - Give your Boss a big vegetarian cake when you make the announcement and tell him it is a bribe.

I AM ALLREADY ENCOURAGING BHADRA TO STUDY AND BECOME A COUNSELLOR (MAYBE A PSYCHOLGIST IN THE FUTURE), HE IS  A VERY HONEST  AND EMPATHETIC PERSON AND PEOPLE NATURALLY TELLS HIM ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS AND PROBLEMS.

HpS - Awww!   He could also be a bartender! <img alt="devil" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/devil_smile.png" title="devil" width="23" /> (Juice Bar!)

JUST A FEW MORE DAYS TO MEET YOU!! WE ARE REALLY LOOKING FORDWARD TO SERVE YOU

PERSONALLY!

ASPIRING TO SERVE YOU SANANDA DD

HpS - Yes, hope to see you tomorrow.  Ekadasi and Thursday, the MOST, MOST, M O S T dangerous day to travel!

Personal Sadhana and Mandir report of THOUBAL

8 years, 8 months ago by mukta singh in Personal Sadhana Reports

All Glories to Sri A.C. Prabhupada Maharaja, Sri Sripada Maharaja, Sri HpS Maharaja

 Gouranga Mahaprabhu, Radha Krsna, Ki Jay and Gourabhakta Vrnda, Ki Jay!

Dandavat Pranam! [The same from us. Manipuri, Bhakta-vrnda, Ki Jay!]

I have read Guruji’s Amrtavani, it is very inspiring but I have not seen the book “Waves of Devotion” I will try to collect it whenever I find. Again I will try to open the site www.vedabase.doc also.
HpS - [No, it is www.vedabase.com]

 

I am continuing my seva activities in the simple form without offering Ana (Bhook), only lights, scents, fruits or dry fruits, tulsi-patra, flowers. I offer prasadam daily before eating with my family. Always it is prepared by my wife from local vegitables in the bhava of Smt. Radharani prepared food for Sri Krsna.

HpS - What Deity you have on your altar. For whom your wife is cooking?

Mataji …. (Mala) leads our team and jointly performs sankirtana. Guruji Maharaja, nowadays I could not open DTC. So I want to know the exact date and place of Guruji’s programme in India. Let me know for information.

Next Sunday, our initiated group will arrange the prasadam of the Sunday and I will read out some slokas from Bhagavatam 8.21.25… (About Bali Maharaja and Vamana Avatara).

In my life time, once I want to take part sankirtan and darshan arati where A.C. Prabhupada started sankirtana and preaching in Amerika. All are depends upon Guruji’s ashirvat and Krsna’s mercy.

Yours fallen servant

Yamunesvara Das

HpS - Now we are investigating the trip to India for Kartik through Hawaii and Australia. Still not sure of the exact dates.

Tell us more of your reading experiences. Do you have a study partner. That is very nice.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj

8 years, 8 months ago by Gopal C Biswas in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. [Lettuce feet].
    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Hope you are good in health.

This body does not get diseases, this body is a disease! I hope we both 'die' soon.

    Materially bad time, while spritually good at my end. Just thought, you are waiting updates from my end.

HpS  -    Very nice to hear from you.    You can see that we have reached the Rural Castle in Spain.  Today Rama-navami.  Did the key to our room ever get back to the Temple?     If we are Krsna conscious then we can use the 'bad times', no??!

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das
