Hare Krishna,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
First month completed with success. I am still commuting on my bike regularly as I am allowing the brahmacaris to use my vehicle for their programs and other needs. That has been a little bitter sweet. I'm very happy that I can use a portion of my income to allow the devotees to be able to execute their service more conveniently. But, my body is getting tired! Last week I didn't make it to the morning program on the weekends due to lack of strength, and lack of sleep. The little studio I currently live in is surrounded by other tenants that enjoy staying up late and being loud on the weekends. I stayed at the temple all day this Sunday to try and do a little more service since I missed out last week.
HpS - What about sleeping (zzzzzzzzz) at the Temple on the weekends?
I have been working mostly with the brahmacari/ashram leader in regards to my seva/sadhana. Tushta Prabhu is often very engaged, so it is more practicle to work with Vinoda. My first 6 month letter of recomendation will probably be a combination from both of them. I have also spoken with the two of them and am trying to rearrange my situation so that I can vacate my current studio and live in the temple. I'm praying that it happens easily and very quickly!
Japa has been good. There were two days this month that I did not complete my rounds and had to make up later. But in contrast I'm chanting more of my rounds in the morning. There is a very clear, distinguishable difference in quality when chanting during brahma muhurta vs any other time of the day! Harinam is still going on minimum once a week nicely.
I have found a PDF version of Waves of Devotion. I am still going through and studying NOD, and have just started using WOD as a guide. This is certainly providing a lot of good topics of discussion. Srimad Bhagavatam reading is also posing good questions and good realizations. Most recently we are trying to discern if some of the words are just beautiful poetry or exact science. Right now we are in canto 2 chapter 10 wherein the Lord is creating all things (specifically sense organs) by his own desire. He desired to speak and taste, so he create the tongue. He desired to feel, so he created the skin. But then it sages that due to the desire of the great sages' desire to hear, the Lord then created the ears for hearing. Is it to be understood that the sages' desire to hear was the impetus for the creation of the ears and that their desire came before the Lord desired to hear (although I also understand that there was no chronological point in "time" when any of these things came into creation)?
HpS - Details, no? Require detailed study. Of course, each day when we wake up we have to "recreate" the three worlds in our own bodies, no? So, we can exam it then also. Our body is an echo of Brahmaloka, Svargaloka, Go Go Goloka!
I'm learning that I have a tendancy to be meticulous and analytical when it comes to studying sastra (maybe that's a bad thing?).
HpS - If you are using to find artificial reasons not to surrender to Krsna it is bad. Otherwise, that is how we become Uttama adhikaris, developing our logic, but Jesus Christ is the "logos", so our analaysis has to be PERSONAL, no?
Another example is that in NOD is [it] says explicitly that we should worship banyan trees and Lord Ganesha. But it is my understanding that we are not neglecting them with our current ISKCON practice as given to us by Srila Prabhupada. I suppose I'm just anxious to find more in sastra that confirms my understanding.
HpS - Look at Dhanurdara Swami's comments. I think he makes some points about this!
I was reading Srimad Bhagavatam on my phone through causelessmercy.com. But I recently dropped my phone and cracked my screen all over, making it slightly difficult to read. I'll be just purchasing a set of SB for my own reading and studying.
Anxiously awaiting any advice/instruction.
Your aspiring servant,
Bhakta Adrian
HpS - Very nice to hear from you!! Very, very nice. You seem to be better off than you every have before. Any news from Utah or The Rebecca???
The Temple class SB is on the same topic?
Hare Krisna Querido Guru Maharaja
pamho agtSP
Le cuento q estos dias ha sido puro nectar en templo de mexico df llego Maha Vishnu swami y se ha hecho mucha predica. es muy entusiasta en salir siempre a harinamaaa y se distribuyen mucho libros, hemos salido los fines de semana a sankirtan con la camioneta nueva q compramos en el templo, ya casi la terminamos de pagar.
SS Maha Vishnu me pidio q fuera con el a colombia del 10 al 23 de noviembre, y me ayudo a pagar el pasaje, me siento muy afortunado porque es un gran gran alma!!
gracias a su miscericordia he seguido su instruccion de levantarme temprano y cantar las vueltas minimas antes del amanecer, he estado analizando mucho mi naturaleza como ud me lo pidio y estoy descubriendome.
la verdad, me gustaria mucho en el trayecto de mi vida devocional poder por lo menos unos meses viajar con SS Maha Vishnu Swami y ser entrenado en el canto de los santos nombre, el me comento q estaria dispuesto a ser mi siksaguru pero quiciera preguntarle si ud esta deacuerdo o que planes tiene para mi,
HpS - TlgaSP!!! pfanrh.... Conozco a Maharaja para un tiempo aqui aca. Somos simpaticos. No se las detalles de su perspectivo ni modo de Sankirtana, pero a mi parece que es bueno acceptar el como un Siksa guru. Sudama Swami dijo que Prabhupada le dijo que cualquiere persona que anima nosotros en servicio devocional, citando las escrituras, o la palabras de los Acharyas relevantes previos son nuestra Siksa gurus. Entonces uno puede ser Vartmana pradarsika siksa guru, Rasa siksa guru; Kanistha, Madhyama o Uttama-adhikari siksa guru.
O.K?
Siento q necesito trabajar mas tiempo con mi intronspeccion pues tengo que ser un ejemplo para los devotos nuevos y no he logrado serlo, asi q deceo seguir sirviendolo desde el Brahmacary ashrama con mas tiempo y dedicacion.
estamos trabajando en videos educativos para toda la comunidad, ahora ya tenemos clases de Maestros Espirituales en nuestro canal de youtube que se llama Iskcon mexico tv.

HpS - ASA ---- Ahhh, muchas conferencias alla. Claro, si puede mejorar el audio es bueno, no, pero bueno. Los conferencias de Srila Prabhupada son disponibles en Youtube en Espanol?
mi vida gira entorno a su vida espiritual, porfavor considere como aspirante a ser un polvo a sus pies de loto.
HpS - ASA --- Tienso tenemos pies de manzana, y en ISKCON podemos ciertamente tomar refugio de los pies de loto de Srila Prabhupada con Acharya-Fundador. Cuando tenemos pies de loto podemos facilmente entender ciertamente quien tiene pies de perro, puerco, ser humano, rosa, loto...
su eterno sirvirete Vrajendra Kumara Dasa
HpS - Muy bien oir de Vd y la predica en Mexico!!!! Muy bien!! Mas en unos dias.
... O.K. We won't publish the letter. Thank you. Is good news.

Hare Krsna Maharaja. Pamho.
I´m Budanath.
ASA - AGTSP. What does that mean? Bhutanatha is Lord Siva. Lord of the Ghosts. Are you Lord Siva!!!! How wonderful. Such exalted people joining this Blog!!
I hope You are well.
HpS - Maybe Brother Ass has stomach cancer or just an ulcer or something else. but is pretty chronic pain. Also, heart arythmias pretty regularly and vision is going and so is respiration, but hey, there is always orange juice!
I´ve been wanting to write days, but I found I coult not say anything useful, not to waste Your time, or rather, to say something nice to fill Your time.
Jay Sri Sri Radha Damodara!!!
Day before yesterday I was thinking in my dream of one day going to Vrndavan, and thinking as Goswamis say " Where are Radha-Krsna? Where are Yasoda and Nanda? Where are the gopis and gopas? Where are the surabhis? Where the Yamuna does not flow? and I felt a healthy envy of the true spiritualists I´ve met througthout my life, as You and others.
Then I went out to run some errands, and I put the music on mobile, earphones, radio, I almost never do, and then something wonderfull happened, the music is fused with people, trees, myself, and I realized how many times I´ve heard from You "Everything has a direct relationship with Radha-Krsna, Vrndavan"
I was aware that a genuine ecstatic dance always is there to move the reality of souls, of the life, the same way that several sprockets are required to transmit the energi of the primary sproket.
It may be all silly. Today I have low power, I´m tired and I´m little sad.
I have not sung my rounds, now do.
I hope someday I can go to Vrndavan.
Thank You for always being there Maharaja.
Hare Krsna.
Budanath
HpS ---- Jaya Radhe, Jaya Krsna, Jaya Vrndavana, Sri Govinda, Gopinathat, Madana-mohana! We read Vrndavana dhama Mahimamrta some times. It is super, super, super. Maybe it is our archives. Might be vdm.docx.
If you can breathe you can chant. (Albiet maybe a little slowly).
Such a nice vision you had!
Krsna must like you.
Maybe He will give you a cookie with a bite out of it!!!
All glories to sri sri Gauranitai
Algtsp
And my respectful obeissances to you.
I hope you are well.
Here i am with a strange report. I talk to mahahari prabhu, he gave me back the wor ship service to Gauranitai. Since my ego, pride and depression had left him, but i dont care i always occupy in the sadhana thinking of tou and sp. And that helps me be a little more humble and forgiving criticism and learn not criticize.
Thank you alway for your answers and answers to krsna ksetra swami, i can bring my day with faith and little joy. I can bring my day with faith and little joy.
Thanks to krsna gives me opportunities. Always forcing in sadhana and reading because i am a beast.
