Letters to the editor

hare krsna maharaj,
Please accept my obeisances (may be not humble yet) at your feet
Jaya Srila Prabhupada

I have been reading letters of others devotees mentioning thier servics, concerns. I see my concerns at very different platform then them. One should not approach guru to solve petty things, but to get way to purpose of life. I hope my questions help  myself and others in solving the mystery of life.

i have intermettentily started reading canto 2. i think i should read atleast 3 times before i move ahead. rounds are ok. The communication with mother Urmila is helping a lot ( though we can not offer any help in her service) in establishing lost connection with Krsna

---------------------------------

This is in reference to letter http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/5314

you asked : "HpS - Well I can see her being disturbed with our picture, but what did Krsna every do to cause her distress?" Krsna has not done anything to her. whatever we have done is and had been problem. As you said "Of course, we may not come to the natural standard immediately, and to force it artificially will cause other problems". This had been problem. we practically dont know which standards to apply in our life. We tried to have non-onion-garlic diet in home for every one, eat only offered food, have regular offering. out enthusiasm turned in passion and fanaticimsm etc..

so she has  got negative emotional cues with ISK  (classes and altar(not with you)). All sufferings come back to her as flash back.

---------------------------------------
on another note we remember your life ( as married men). You must have great  renouncing abilities when your wife and kid left you because of your adherence to the movement. Hats off to you !!!!
--------------------------------------------------
all this suffering we tolerate with this perspective... " austerity/suffering  is there, only chocieis voluntary or involutanry ". i hope all these sufferings nullify my sinful actvities (which i have definitely done a lot in this life time itself).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
we suggested by you in previous letter.."Work toward good association of any kind. It is even worth risking economic situation to get good friends, no?"  yes you are correct...we are working towards that.....
------------------------------------------------------------------------
we did look on internet on "super cool liquid: .. it takes a moment for life to change....but as we understood there are many prequisite for that...

HpS - AGTSP. paoho.  We have to communicate with you a little about the NIOS work and Professor. It is all so amazing. Being in the material world means being in a prison. Have you every visited a prison. Is full of emotionally sick people. It has been tolerable for us. We have similar emotional stress to you, just different group. Nobody in this world is in an enviable state.

Thing is to learn how to have fun in the middle of the magic.

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

    Gurudev, We all are in Yatra and you are much much more ahead
    and you have left/put marks on the path so that we also reach to the destination by following
    those marks.

    Your every comments on letters are very precious for us, while, i have just collected 180 as of, from
    your letters. All are very very precious for me. I am just sharing your 10 comments below:

    1. Our beads are our worshipable Deity.

ASA - Bead bag like a Temple!

    2. Every moment is dying and nothing more. So, can we do it for Krsna? For His applause with His friends.
    3. Living in this material world is like driving Krsna to a party with Him in the front seat next to you
       in the rain. You have to be a little careful because of the rain and other drivers, but it doesn't require
       all your intelligence. Most of your attention is on the converstation that Krsna is having with Sridham.
    4. You are a loser. You have done nothing for anybody. You have nothing to show for your life!
    5. Whatever Krsna wants, that is our service. Whatever the Gopis, Srila Prabhupada want for Krsna, that is our service, eternally.
    6. Krsna doesn't waste anyone's austerities.
    7. Dukalayam asasvatam.  A place that Krsna guarantees will not work! We can never be happy here. We are perfectionists!
    8. If you want a nice husband, nice car, nice house, nice partys, nice friends, nice babies, then.... you are in the right place.
    9. Biggest way to dump the false ego is to help devotees, Karmis, do their service.
   10. Bad Japa is spiritual death.

   Your comments are like instructions or indications for us to atten our goal of life and you always live with me through your marks,
   instructions, indications and sayings.

   Thank you, Guru Dev for continous enlightening for truth.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - ASA --- We have to write letter for your second initiation. It is in our list!!!!     I hope we can hear at 9PM the things we say at 3AM.    The mode of ignorance and the mode of passion.

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

    Gurudev, Have attached, one of your good photo, which we like very much.

HpS - Yes, it is """mystical"""".  It was when we were staying in the B'cari Ashrama in Russia for one month for teaching Bh. Vaibhava.   They have big, thick, log building of two stories. In the Winter it is 50 degrees Celcious below zero so the logs get warm from the heat inside and then stay warm.

    Gurudev, To prepare SB and BG, have downloaded your lectures from Vedabase, again. Also downloaded, your lectures on Necture of instruction,

    Necture of devotion and a folder called various and few kirtan, sung by you.

    Preparing Android for frequent communication with you.

    Have collected around 180 your quetes, which i read frequently and get instruction.

    Hope to please you some day.

your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - AGTSP paoho.  We have two other letters from you!  We will look at them.  You are so fortunate to be able to visit Vrndavan so often. For us it costs $1500 and days of "exciting" travel.  You are pleasing to us if you are pleasing our Guru, Srila Prabhupada. Of course, basically that means good rounds and 4-principles.

Gurumajaraja perdone que no le hable mas de mi hijo.

Mi hijo es Gabriel, tiene 8 anos estudia en segundo de primaria,

en una escuela aqui en Madrid. Es mounstro y angel a la vez.

Es un buen devoto, desde que tiene 3 anos me ha acompanado 

siempre al templo y a todos los eventos Vaisnavas. 

Ama a Krsna, yo le dije que es el unico padre que ha tenido.

Su servidora, Krsnita. Que bueno, le veremos en Madrid.

Que Krisna le bendiga siempre!

HpS - AGTSP. Canta algo de Japa, Gabriel.
