Living at the temple.

10 years, 3 months ago by kitri das in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna Maharaj, Please Accept my obeisences . From Sydney, camilo.

heaps thanks for answer me i was a bit sad and worried, but now I'm okay.

I'm already living at the asrama with the bramhacaris, i moved on wednesday afternoon, everything was resolved very quickly.

I'll be able to do sankirtana three times a week because I'm doing a english course to get the IELTS(International english test) and also in charged of the temple shop in the evenings 'cause they need some help with that, and well attending mangala-arati and morning program . Here there is a very good and strong bramhacari asrama because the Manager is very responsible and nice devotee, his name is Ghanasyama Govinda prabhu he's also my mentor,  always very much concerned about everyone's sadhana ,he had training in chowpaty india , (JPS disciple), and the name of the temple president is Varanayaka prabhu he is from poland and very serious devotee as well. 

HpS - AGTSP. Our Second Disciple, Madhumanajari Devi Dasi is the Head Pujari, no???

we have bhakti sastri class every Sunday arvo, we also attend harinam twice a month,all the monks, and we have kirtan among  monks every evening, we read krishna book every day, instrments practice, yoga or excercise, sloka memorization, and sankirtana, well that depending on everyone's service of course. 
  If there's any particular aspect or thing you would like to know maharaj tell me . I'm so sorry about being very informal writing.
I just hope to have your blessing to make spiritual advancement ,to tolerate my mind and make real progress, and at least to stay at the temple with a good sadhana and maintain it through the years.


Thanks again for your time Maharaja! Hope youre well I'm not being able to hold japa joe because its the time we go to bed here, so it's sad.
Trying to be your servant, Camilo ! Hare Krishna, AGTSP.

HpS - Of course, we are catching up on the old letters from our USA tour.  What is the news now?

HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. Utiliza translate.google.com!   We are good.. Each day we learn how to do better service. Each day it is more fun. Each day we can see that we are getting free from death.

HpS - Bien. Pero ahora esta afuera del ashrama, no????

4 de septiembre comienzo sri isopanisad...tratando de escuchar las clases de srimad bhagavatam por mahatma prabhu....mangala-arati y 16 rondas (imposible cantar las rondas en el templo gm no logro cantarlas bien) :( ashrama si o si...¿esta mal? muy mal?...

sigo con lectura todos los dias...servicio para janmastami y srila prabhupada ofrenda!!!!

                                                                ter kadamba devi dasi....

HpS - Bien. Usually we must try living in the Ashram, then living outside the Ashram. Then we can start to adjust what is best place for us. Sometimes share an apartment with a friend near the temple... we learn.

Send us more news as you get some results to your experiments.

Querido Gurudev: Pamho. TgSP y sus seguidores fieles.

Espero que al recibir este mensaje se encuentre bien por la gracia de Dios.

HpS - TlgaSP. Paoho. Muy bien. Muchas gracias su asociacion.

Yo por aqui podría decir que estoy en una nueva etapa de mi desarrollo. Una etapa mas reflexiva y menos activa externamente. Estoy tratando de observar mas y ver las cosas desde diferentes perspectivas sin actuar.

Creo que estoy preparado para normalizar las relaciones vaisnavas (personales) con los devotos que, de alguna manera, hemos dejado de relacionarnos o hemos distanciado las relaciones. Por mi parte pienso caminar en la dirección de restablecer las relaciones hasta el punto mejor posible.

HpS - Ooof! Increible. Yo estaba pasando fuertes conflictos con hermanos espirituales, todo, pero, HK, HK... ;poco a poco la relacion con cada uno es claro. NOI 4,5,6

Pienso todos los dias en los sabios consejos que nos da continuamente y en la manera de poder ponerlos en practica despues de haberlos asimilado.

Le agradezco sinceramente la madurez, paciencia y tolerancia que tiene con todos nosotros.

Ayer estuvimos en un programa de predica. Un programa de Terapias Alternativas  como reiki,  osteopatía, flores de bach, etc. Nos invitaron a participar a hacer un bhajan y poner una mesa con parafernalia y prasadam. Pedí ayuda a Jaramara para que enviara algunos devotos del Templo  para ayudar en el bhajan y para que pusieran un stand con la parafernalia y prasadam. Jaramara prabhu, de forma muy amable,envio cuatro devotos y pienso que el programa fue exitoso. Por otro lado Purnamasi y otras devotas se encargaban de cuidar a los niños mientras los padres hacian las terapias.

Gracias Gurudev por seguir ahí y, espero algún dia poder ser un digno discipulo suyo.

Sin mas se despide

su sirviente

HpS - Super, Super, Super. Muchas gracias su asociacion. Aqui estamos trabajando como fanaticos para esta festival Sabado, Celebrate Nashville. La ciudad espera como 20-mil personas y tenemos como cuatro sitios para mantener. "booths".

Por favor unos noticias de su perspectivo a veces! Esperamos muy bien la predica en Madrid, Espana.

bhakta from india aspiring for your mercy

Hare Krisna maharaj. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you H.H.Hanumatpresaka swami. Please accept my dandavat pranam at your lotus feet. Maharaj hope you are doing well . I am very sorry for writing so often i know you are very busy in the service of radharani and krisna and helping srila prabhupada. Please forgive me . I had few questions . Maharaj they are as follows--- Q) how to make myself humble from inside ? Why do i become proud while telling someone about krisna . I dont want to have that proud feeling . I feel like i know so much while in fact i know nothing . Please suggest few practical ways by which i can feel and make myself humble .

HpS - ASA - AGTSP. Paoho. Try to see how the people you are dealing with can be engaged in Krsna's service and then try to help them with their service. That makes us humble.

Q) sometimes i see the world black and white. When i dont like someone because they had treated me badly i cant seem to forgive them even later on after months. It takes me a many years to change my opinion for that person. This is hindering my progress in Krisna consciousness because here there is a initiated devotee . I just cant seem to change my view about him even now when he behaves nicely with me . Please teach me how i can change myself . Because if i keep grudge agaist krisna's devotee i will never be able to become devotee . Please help .

HpS - Is the same answer. See that devotee. See how he is doing some service. eg. cooking the Sunday feast. Help him. That will make your mind and heart change usually. Try it and tell us the result after a few weeks.

Sorry again for writing about my silly problems . You are very mercifull towards me . Thank you maharaj for taking out time to answer me. All glories to H.H.Hanumatpresaka swami maharaj. Thank you very very much. Your aspiring egoistic foolish servant Rituraj majumder Shillong , india

HpS - Is nice to hear from you! Read the letters to other devotees. You will find that many of their questions are just like yours.

Hare krisna maharaj. All glories to Srila Prabhupada All glories to you maharaj. Please accept my humble pranam at you lotus feet. How are you maharaj ? How are your projects going on ? I know for a fact that by the mercy of Srila prabhupada and sri Caitanya mahaprabhu you maharaj are distributing the prema of Krisna to all of us extremely fallen people. I am so degraded but you still accepted me . I am so much gratefull to you . Thank you maharaj . Yes maharaj i have read the article on guru tattva . I completely accept every word of it . I completely believe you to be a enpowered acharya on the disciplinic parampara with srila prabhupada as the founder acharya and supreme connector to krisna. I also accept that after diksha if i fall down because of my offences ( radha sunya ) you will then become my siksha guru but will only accept me again when i follow the rules and chant my rounds. Maharaj as you asked me to do some service . Today by your and Srila prabhupadas mercy i for the first time went for book distribution on my own . Because of your blessing i could sell prabhupada books worth of Rs 755 in only 2 hours . Its all your mercy . I remembered you and most of the books got sold. Regarding vrindavan ..no maharaj i dont live near vrindavan . I stay in shillong ( north east india ) . The deities in our center are also named sri radha shyamsundar. Yes maharaj i am in contact with haridas das prabhu. Last time i talked to him was during radhastami. He too has been mercifull towards me. My chanting is going on ok. 16 rnds and 4 regs are ok . Because i live in hostel i sometimes eat mess( karmi food ) . Trying to find solution . Need to manage time better. Maharaj please give me some siksha. Should i start with TPP file given in ASA starting from NOI. Please maharaj although i am unfortunate that i didnt get your personal association but please help me. Begging for you limitless mercy. All glories to H.H.Hanumatpresaka swami maharaj. Your very fallen and ignorant foolish servant. Rituraj majumder. Shillong , india P.S. pictures of our center deities. HpS - AGTSP paoho. Let us look at more recent letter.
