Vaisnava Identity

AGTSP !!

Please accept my humble obeisances

Dear Maharaja

We are so grateful for this digital link with you, it keeps us going with full faith and confidence in Srila Prabhupada's sankirtan.

HpS - ASA -   AgtSP!...    Thank you for your criticism. It helps us enormously to know what services are valuable.

We are chanting 16 & +   rounds daily,  we realized (finally)  16 is just the minimun,  so always go for more hopefully one day reaching 24 or 32 ..following in your footsteps. Trying to take your Vani as far as we can in our poor condition.  We shaved our head and left big sika,  we are accepting our identity as a Vaisnava monk,  the only identity that really matters, the essential identity...took us so long but here are with your mercy and all Vaisnavas.  Our service to the Temple is mainly through the Bramachari ashram,  harinama, programs, etc  we had a very inspiring and full of service Montreal Rathayatra and very blissfull and instructive Toronto Rathayatra.

ASA - Devotees went the the Toronto Rathyatra and brought some Mahaprasad for us. They were very stimulated by the festival.

Played the bansuri for the sunday school presentation of Ramayana !!  ki jay !!   Hanuman and the army of monkeys, like 29 kids, storming the stage from everywere!  To fight Ravana's army !  Blissful, transcendentally joyful!

We are still hoping to receive harinama iniciation from you Maharaja,  we pray and pray and hope the letter of recommendation will finally come.  Then our life as a Vaisnava monk will be complete and ready to take off further.      The grounding you recommended is always our base camp. 

your aspiring servant

Raul

HpS - We are just rough servants in the link. The Diksa comes from Krsna, through our Sampradaya Acharyas. We are just acting under Srila Prabhupada's shelter as we understand he wants us to do. You should also be a link in the chain. 'Yare dekhe...', wheverver you go just tell people about Krsna based up BG, SB ....

May you Sankirtan potency increase and increase!

Hare Krisna Gurudev: Pamho. TgSP.

Espero que se encuentre bien de salud cuando reciba este mensaje. Nosotros por aquí seguimos tratando de volvernos devotos algún dia. El mes de Julio he cogido vacaciones y hemos visitado Radhadesh (8dias). Ha sido una experiencia muy bonita. Los devotos nos han tratado con mucho cariño y el lugar es muy bonito. Tambien hemos aprovechado para hacer otras actividades; Nimai y yo hemos hecho kayak y, por las tardes ibamos todos  a bañarnos a la piscina y al rio con otros devotos del lugar, ya que hacía mucho calor. Despues hemos estado estado 9 dias con el equipo de sankirtan de Avesa Rupa y Adiras. Purnamasi y los niños estan ahora en NVrajamandala haciendo un "Campamento de Verano" y cuando termine se van a otro en Navalakunda.

En cuanto a los permisos para construir en Navalakunda,  despues de 3 largos años acabamos de pasar la peor fase (El Impacto Medioambiental). Espero que antes de acabe el año podamos empezar la construcción del edificio.

ASA - Oooof! Hace mucho tiempo.

Sigo leyendo algunas cartas del blog, lo que me permite asociarme con usted de forma indirecta.

Gracias por el buen servicio que está prestando a Srila Prabhupada, ISKCON y a la Comunidad de devotos.

Sin mas se despide

Please bless me to be intelligent in choose always the better option for developing myself in KC. Protect me from myself and my selfish desires, with your blessing I can transcend my false ego. Any effort I make any goal I "get" is because of you, eternally thankful. I cannot express my gratefulness with words.

All glory to Srila Prabhupada and All glory to all devotees of Sankirtan movement's by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu

Dear Guru Maharaja, Please accept my humnbles obeisance unto you:

The last days I read Srimad bhagavatam second canto, keeping the chanting of 16 round, in the morning.

I visit many devotees and new friends who help'me to remember Srila Prabhupada and Krsna.

I know the life is very complicate for keep good relation with everybody, I just try not to cause anyone anxiety. but on this path, certainly I'm not good, I know that there are many minds views, and it's complicate walk on the path of  purity and truthfulness.

Thanks to good friendships, I can keep chanting and follow the principes, reading Prabhupada's books and hearing his lectures. The sankirtan's way is the most important goal to me, not by deliveration, just because i'm very distressed, and I haven't another choise to remove all the sufferings.

The environment is gettin hardest, each time the selfishness, the envy, greed and others enemies, divide us while oppositely the path of lords Chaitanya and Nityananda require us to come together.

Seeing your efforts, I remind hopeful on krsna consciousness, just thanks to your mercy. I joining with another to chant Hare Krishna and try to get hope and faith. Rathayatra comittee (Guadalajara) invites me to join, one more year.

Thanks to your prime example and instruccion; see you at your next visit (Mex).

Hare Krishna, your simple servant aniruddha Krsna Das

HpS - AGTSP!  Paoho.  Thank you so, so, so, so much for 16-good rounds and 4-principles strictly. You are guaranteed to advance!!!     I hope we see when we are in Mexico. Details of course, in the calendar at the website.  Very best of luck beoming more and more integrated with Srila Prabhupada's ISKCON.
