Letters to the editor

Dear Swamiji,

PAMHO, AGTSP! So after 6 months of regularly attending mangal arati and working at BDS, continuing to chant 16 a day, and strictly following the 4 regs, Dina Dayal Prabhu (the school principal) can reccomend me as a candidate. Then after 6 more months I can be initiated? When I chant my rounds I try not only focus on pronounciation, but also think wy I pray to Krishna and the meaning of the Maha mantra.

HpS - AGTSP. If you have been getting up early and keeping a morning program by internet, that is also fine. If you have been 16 nice rounds and 4 principles strictly and morning program as soon as you can get a recommendation you can become a "Refugee", then six months more = first initiation. Jaya!

Dear Swamiji,

PAMHO, AGTSP! I'm not a saint. I'm just trying to maintain a regular program and hopefully come to the spiritual platform. I read the link. As far as I understand it I must attend temple program daily, attentively chant 16 rounds a day, follow the 4 regs, pperform devotional service, and seek guidance of a guru.

I am seeking your guidance, I have an unpaid position at the Bhaktivedanta Dharma school as librarian and story tellar, and I am seeking your guidance. Next month I move close to school and temple. I want to go to mangal everyday and chant japa in temple. I'm trying to surrender more and hopefully make advancement in devotional life. 

your servant,

Bhakta Ken

HpS - ASA - AGTSP Let's look at your other letter.

Hare Krisna Por favor mi Querido Guru Deva Hanumatpresaka Maharaja acepte mis humildes reverencias todas las Glorias a Srla Prabhupada. Como sabéis he estado en la India durante 93 días exactamente y lo he pasado bien en general por misericordia de Sri,Sri Guru Gouranga, Nitiananda. Todo lo que te pasa en el Santo Daham es Bueno. Lo primero que hice nada mas llegar a los dos o tres dias de estar en el Santo Dham de Mayapur fue apuntarme a Mangal Goura Parikrama dirigidido por S.S. Jaya Patraka Maharaja y si no hubiera sido por el esguince que me empezo a dar problemas hubiera ido al Safari. Intentando ser Su humilde Sirviente Jagamohan Das

HpS - ASA - Jaya. Desculpa responder. Viaje de 6-semanas por USA con mal conneccion de internnet.  Y ya que pasa!   Mas detalles!

I feel like my service here is to teach English to devotees so lectures won't need to be translated. After my trip to Philiooines I hanker for more preaching . I realize that teaching is also preaching. I pray to Krishna that I will become a suitable candidate for initiation.

HpS - AGTSP! Did you read the file link we sent?  What did you think of it? It is clear??

 Swamiji,

PAMHO, AGTSP!  I have been following the 4 regs since I got Custody of my daughter in 1999, and doing 16 a day since May, 2013 when I arrived in Indonesia an got a new set of Japa beads. I don’t live near the temple so my morning prog is to get up at 4, shower, watch mangal and tulasi puja on my laptop. Start chanting japa by 5. After Japa I have guru puja then watch Bhaga vatam class That I downloaded from Youtube. In the evening I watch Gita In this way I try to increase my Krishna consciousness.

Your servant,

Ken
