Letters to the editor

Querido Maharaj, reciba mis mas humildes reverencias

todas las glorias a Su Divina Gracia Srila Prabhupada Ki yai!

Quiero agradecer su infinita misericordia al darme la carta de recomendación para la iniciación y participarle mis más profundos y sinceros sentimientos al recibir su carta.

"Se que no estoy en pleno conocimiento. estoy en la ignorancia acerca de mi naturaleza espiritual, por lo que quiero seguir las instrucciones de mis Gurus personas espiritualmente avanzadas ... "

Cuando recibí su última carta me sentí muy mal, me

dolió mucho que usted me diga ¨Good luck¨ sentí que había perdido a mi querido Guru Hanumanpresaka Swami

Creo recordar que Usted me dijo que

si me iniciaba con Guru Maharaj Jajapataka Swami, o sea tomaba Diksha Hari Nama con JPS podía

seguir teniendo su refugio como Siksha Guru.

Por favor Guru Maharaj dejo absolutamente a su interpretación, y me pongo en sus manos, le pido me ayude con la luz de su conocimiento!

No quiero perder su maravillosa asociación!

Reciba mis humildes reverencias

Sri Krsna y Radha lo bendigan siempre y que siga distribuyendo su Gracia

Su humilde sirvienta

HpS - ASA - Por que no. Por mi es algo informal: Preguntas y respuestas, pero por Jayapataka Swami ha sido algo formal. Tattvavit-gaura Das de Peru pidio de Maharaja como Diksa guru y yo como Siksa y en el momento sde iniciacion JPS era formalment estableciendo eso.

De mi, de cualquiere manera es muy bien!   Pero solamente mencionando a Maharaja para formailzar.

agtsp.

at the beginning [Of the Bhakta Training Program at Bhaktivedanta Manor in England] we were 5 people; then a devotee leave after two weeks; then in the middle of the course came another devotee from Germany; and late last month, came two devotees from Hungary.
so today we are 7 people.

ending, the final is April 27.

We also did the course (Guru - disciple)

Yeah, well, in the beginning it was very difficult for me; but after struggling a bit I can say that survived; at least we're still here.

be in the room of Prabhupad is serious business.

not to commit offenses there.

there are times when I dance, I feel that Krishna controls me.

MASTER OF THE SENSES

it's a good idea.

without the favor of Nitai it is strange.

Maharaj thank you very much for your support
you are always a source of inspiration for me

HpS - Hmmm.   You can see that it has taken us three weeks to answer this letter!   We are also very much struggling to be regular devotees and establish our priorities. Pretty much, whatever we do if we have the basis of the Full Morning Program, 16-4, then we will derive good benefit from it and Krsna will direct us in detail which programs to join.

We hope to hear from you now, your next program!

Hare Krishna Maharaja!

Is there a proper or recommended attitude toward the realization of one's own spiritual body/service in Goloka? Should the desire to return to serving Radha and Krishna in their lila be the forefront of my practice and the motivation to pursue the path of devotion? My feelings at the moment are that I am very fallen and far from advanced stages of Krsna Consciousness so I should just focus on performing the fundamentals of bhakti and not jump ahead to these deep subjects. Is it appropriate to think like in siksastaka prayer that Krishna is free to do as he likes with me, he can leave me broken hearted by not being present before me etc? I will keep attempting  my basic services whether or not my internal/eternal service is EVER revealed to me or even if I never get a taste or positive feedback from Krishna. Or is the proper approach to be intensely greedy to get back to Vraja and serve the Lord in a spiritual form. Am I simply a fool in denial? Please enlightened me.

Your aspiring servant

HpS - ASA - We can only try to remember what Prabhupada is discussing. The last verse of the Siksastikam that you paraphrase is described in Caitanya Caritamrta as coming from Lord Chaitanya in a mood of advanced devotion.

As I know you I would say its fine to think about Krsna and Braja and wanting to serve there and go there, but it is more natural for you and us to be thinking about freedom from distress and a life in ISKCON that is positively harmonius with our business, family, church, health.

O.K?    Focus on getting your rounds done for practical purposes but as much as is natural focus on going to Goloka in the Holy Names.

Thank you!

Hope this meets u in really good health

Today I present my resignation as chief pujari in wilson.. we feel good. Because if they allow me I will continue with my seva.. but not in charge. I was not doing my service as well as before. I realized that I was a burden rather than a help.

So i think and think a lot about my priorities. Get up early and get my rounds done.. 4P.. read.. And do some for this sankirtan movement.

I have recovered all my rounds.. my fmp is much more better now. I am teaching BS. It is very nice to share ideas with my students... etc

I am helping Abhiram thakur das for the congress in June.. it is a great group. Patrak, Nitya kishore, jagat pavitram, Parama Karuna, torino. Etc... Jambavan will help us also 

We feel really happy. Hope to be useful with lalita gopi dd... Let's see what Krsna wants

Thanks for your inspiration

Trying be useful

HpS - ASA ---   Hare Krsna...    Are you going deeper in your Krsna consciousness?  If we just go on with basic determination as you are doing then the Witch can't stop you. Step by step we are climbing out of Her pit!

HK PAOHO Querido Gurudeva  caundo lo escucho pareciera que su salud es buena ojalá sea así, hemos estado corriendo de un lado a otro, es por eso que no nos enteramos que estaba dando clases en las noches, he tenido caidas no burdas pero si sutiles, mucha lectura renacentista tiene consecuencias, no vemos televisión, pero de internet nos conectamos con el mundo y tambien nos contaminamos, en fin estamos tratando de mejorar, estamos comiendo a deshoras, gordos no, pero si más flacos, y trataremos de equilibrarnos.

De lunes a viernes estamos dando clases en colegios ahora nos toca geografía, ojala nos vaya bien, en las tardes estamos con niños de 7 años, me agrada su dulzura, pureza  y sinceridad, sabados sankirtaneando, hoy poco sankirtana y salio un Gita, y volvemos a dar clases BS on line. y el domingo pujari.  

La novedad y para lo cual le escribimos es comunicarle que estamos abriendo una escuela dominical el proximo mes, para los pequeños en chosica, catequesis en conciencia de Krsna, por favor sus bendiciones para tener exito en esta aventura. ¿Alguna recomendación?

NIMSAR también inicia un curso de medicina integrativa con P. Ramacandra, quisiera ser menos floja con mis lecturas tener mas ingresos, este año al parecer trabajaremos por amor a la enseñanza y no por el oro.

Estamos a la espera de sus proxima llegada, pedimos servicio, pero si no, nos alegrará hacer un servicio practico, limpiar el cuarto y baño.

Quisieramos hacer grandes cosas mientras no se de la oportunidad seguiremos su instrucción tratar de hacer algo simple pero hacerlo bien.

Hari bolo!!!!!!!!!!!!

HpS - ASA --- Hare Krsna. Puedo entender como 91% de su carta. Espanyol horrible (nosotros), pero muy interesante. Si, la television, internet, YOUTOUBE, es el agente de la Bruja muy fuerte. Pero podemos relacionar con Sankirtan.

Muchas gracias su carta, su vida. Mantener un buen equipo de amigas para consejo de su desarrolla.

Tiene que comunicar con devotos en Mejico si puede acerca de su escuela de domingo. Una carta de ellas va  pasar en unos dis aqui. Busca lo.

O.K. 6-minutos hast clase de Hawaii!!

MUCHAS gracias sus esfuerzas. Vd es una gran esperanza para el futuro de Peru y el mundo.

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

    Gurudev, Hope you are good in health.

    There were lots of things in my mind during stay in Vrndavana with you.  

    We all normally get many instructions from you, your lectures, your quotes,
    but if a pupil gets a personal blessing from spiritual master, Pupil treasures
    that and keeps it in his heart for forever. And it benefits disciples,
    specifically in bad situation.

    If we just follow your instructions and serve Srila Prabhupada, then at the end,
    you are going to take us all back home, back to Godhead, where we would be able
    to talk and play with Krsna. Correct ?

HpS - We are just presenting ourselves as servant of Srila Prabhupada. We have posted our Guru-tattva ideas on the web-page no. Our instruction is to accept Srila Prabhupada as he is living and communicating himself at this actual time in his books. In the NOI he says that if we finish chanting our prescribed number of rounds we will be elevated to the stage of Uttama adhikari. Maybe at that stage you will discover that you are an eternal associate of Lord Narayana or Varaha or Prsna0garbha or...  Sri Krsna. O.K., at that stage you can figure out the higher details.  It was very nice being with you in Braja.  Dr. Samaresh talks about your service and character a lot. More programs.   Very nice to see Pune. Thank you!!

    We all are practicing but we are not knowledgeable. so you words, instructions
    matters a lot for us.

    While, stay with you, we realized that your life is so perfectly organized for Krsna.
    You had perfect time for waking up, for japa, for bath, for the communication and then
    you left for Krsna's wish.

    i am very proud of being your disciple, will keep my given promise till the
    end of life. Need your blessings so that we can make a little for Radha-Krsna.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das
