Letters to the editor

Hare Krishna, Dear Guru Maharaja. Pamho. Jaya Srila Prabhupada!!!

Yes, I really feel that yesterday I am born again.
Thank You for everything and for your blessings before initiation. I like my new name, Jambula. I like that He is a servant of Krishna and that he is always near Him. Great responsibility. Yadunandana Maharaja told me the meaning of this name after giving me the Japa Mala and after the initiation he showed me the song "Bhoga-Arati" in the Vaishnava songs where it appears.
I still don´t have pictures but I hope to send You some when the devotees give them to me.

Dandava das told me that possibly this coming year You come to Spain. It is great news and I hope to see You if Krishna wants.

Thank You very much. Your humble servant.

Jambula Das

HpS - Aaaah! Yes, AGTSP.   paoho.  Now I remember finding it. Yes big responsibility.

All Glories to Sri Sri Gauranga Nitiananda
All Glories to His divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
All Glories to You
All Glories to devotees

Please accept my most humble obeisances to your holy lotus feet.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP. Paoho. at your holy lotus feet also.

Dear Gurudeva:
                  How are you? I'm so so so (X108) happy, because of your comming. I really can't bealieve that's soon you will be there :D
16 Rounds or less :( I start again with my debt, I think less service can help me for that., and 4 principles ok.
Gurudev you're my daily inspiration, each good thing I make is because of you any good quality I take is because of you and my parents. I started to appreciate it, all the time the people invert on me, to help me. I really thankful for that, hope my actions show it.
The organization of your visit keep on, I keep confirming things. One new door is open. I met a consular of India embassy, and talk with him to introduce you, and he answer about you can take a meeting with them in India Embassy and he can introduce you to the embassador. Are you interest? I think it can be a good seed, to other visits, but wait your answer to confirm. Madhavendra P D, suggest to make a lunch with them, now we are trying to organize your visit.
Yes Gurudeva. Bkt Luis the psychologist is helping, and too Dhanya Lalita :)
I'm so happy the devotees are so interest in help you in every service! They're so inspire because of your visit!
Helping in Education Congress in design stuff.
In my next letter send my VP letter.

HpS - ASA - Actually we have done programs in the Indian Embassy maybe six times in the past and was not much response from their public, and is only useful to meet with the Ambassador if there is specific task. They all know ISKCON quite well already, so I would say that we can ask them to send notices of our programs to anyone they think might be interested but no need to visit them personally now.

Other questions;
1.What can we do with persons, who make a lot of time are in KC, but still taking drugs or like that?

ASA - It is a very individual process. Some go slow, some go fast. Some are Kardama and Devahuti, some are Daksa and Sati. So, get to know them individually as Krsna arranges and then if you have some knowledge to give them, preach to (teach) them. If they don't WANT to listen then keep a respectful attitude, show a good example.

2.You have some new tryptich for Jung? or the same of last year? Diferent persons than last year. With Nikuñja we try to invite the most important person about jung here in Arg, but he will be on Hollydays at these time, and too my contact from my university. But a women who is in charge of one of Jung's schools will come.

HpS - Don't have any tryptic so make one as you like. You could make it with Crayolas. (Ha! Ha! Hare!)

3. New material for the education seminar? or the same?
HpS - Same.

Thanks for your time. Sorry for my long letter.
Always trying to do my best to please you and Srila Prabhupada.
Rati Manjari Devi Dasi.
Please bless me to fix my Japa. I'm so worry to lost myself because of that.

HpS - Yes, is a fact. Make it first thing RIGHT NOW. Without good Japa we become more and more and more stewpud.

Hare Krishna Maharaja, please receive my humble obeisance, all the glories to Srila Prabhupada! I hope that when you receive this letter you are well and receiving all the blessings of Krishna.

Today is the day of my initiation if it´s the desire of Krishna and yours. I would like to thank you very much for accepting me as your disciple and It is my purpose in the future through your instruction to serve Krishna, to serve You, to serve Prabhupada and to serve all the Devotees.

I will give you some mangos to offer to Krishna when you get to Spain :)

Thank you with all my heart.

Your humble servant

Jacobo.

HpS - AGTSP!  Paoho. Only one problem! I think I wrote your new name on the paper you sent to me and mailed it back to Spain but I don't have a copy. <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" /> <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" /> <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" /> <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />   We are very fortunate that we have Srila Prabhupada as our leader and not ourselves! What is your new name? Now you have taken another birth, no???

Hare Krishna: Maharaja, por favor acepte mis más humildes reverencias. Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Soy Mercedes. Una devota del templo de Madrid. Dandava Das le ha hablado de mí; le conozco desde hace 4 años, él me ha estado ayudando con mi espiritualidad hasta que he conocido a Srila Prabhupada y su movimiento para la conciencia de Krishna.

HpS - Hare Krsna! Bien venidos a nuestra Blog de ASA. Estuvimos juntos en esta viaje a Valencia, todo, antes, no?

Actualmente hago servicio en el templo de Madrid: guirnaldas para las Deidades, bolas de coco para Harinama, salgo de Harinama todos los domingos, ayudo a limpiar el templo y estoy en el grupo de Bhakti Vriksa. Actualmente estoy cantando un minimo de 16 rondas desde finales de verano. Sigo los 4 principios regulativos desde hace más de un año

Pedí refugio como Siksa Gurú a Yadunandana Swami

Le conocí a Usted la ultima vez que estuvo en Madrid; me inspira mucho para seguir mi camino espiritual y a Srila Prabhupada.

Me gustaria ver la posibilidad de tomar refugio en Usted de la mano de Yadunandana Swami.

Muchas gracias por todo y espero me permita poder escribirle para contarle más cosas de mí.

Su humilde aspirante a servidora

HpS - ASA - Jaya!   AgtSP. Si, vamos a ser disponible en Skype desde 12.00 horas aqui, 18.00 horas de Madrid, El Capitol!

I'll follow yours recomendations about you told me in your last email. We are working to be better, but I have somethings driven in to my heart. This is the hardest year in my life and almost all the pain comes from devotees, some of them senior devotees. Only a little pain from no devotees. But I'm not complaining. I have to purify myself. I'm sure I have done so many many evil things in my life and previus lifes, and now I have to pay for that. I accept it. I can't be all day thinking why?. It's clear for me. I only ask your patience, Prabhupada's patience and Krisna's patience to understand which is my position as a soul in this world. Maybe Krisna will let me to serve to His devotees (dasa anudasa).

Thank you for all Gurudeva. I hope you can connect with Madrid on Dec. 23 at 18:30 (Madrid Time) via Skype. I'll have Skype ready.

Please, forgive my offenses. Your humble servant.

Dandava Das.

HpS - Jaya! Mr. GRAB Donkey.
