Health and Purity

All glories to Srila Prabhupada & All glory to Sankirtana Movement by Gaur Nitay & All Glories to ISKCON's devotees.


Please accept my humble obeisances, and dandavas unto you.

HpS/ASA - The same to you and more, more, more of it!!


Dear Gurudeva, I hope that everything is always good for you, I am very glad and motivated by your activities.

Thanks to your mercy and example I have continued chanting the rounds, I also continue to read and study the SP lectures and books, I continue to share what I have learned with all who listen to me. for example in Bhagavatam Srila Prabhupada say: ... The body can be maintained by any kind of foodstuff, but cow’s milk is particularly essential for developing the finer tissues of the human brain so that one can understand the intricacies of transcendental knowledge. A civilized man is expected to live on foodstuffs comprising fruits, vegetables, grains, sugar and milk...(SB 3.5.7) the vegan diet has made much emphasis that dairy is bad for health, and there are even doctors who say that sugar is the cause of many diseases.

There is a proliferation of keto diets for being very healthy, and promotes the consumption of meat, also much is said that grains such as wheat, rice and corn are very harmful, contrary to Bhagavad Gita 3. 4, Although it speaks well of the consumption of healthy fats, which are mentioned in the BG 17.8.

Are cereals and milk really very harmful?


ASA - Brown and White - 🐵 🐷 We don't eat beer or pickles made with vinegar. We do chant and dance and dance and dance!

If you chant and dance then you can digest almost anything.

Yes, get the cleanest grains, the best milk for KRSNA.

Then He, mother Yasoda, adjust the problems in the food.


If you are a brahmana living in the forest then you may not have, need, milk. your wife and kids may be just as brahminical as you. Your neighbors.

But if you are a brahmana living in the city, have to THINK. give practical advice to Putin, Trump, Pope.... then you need milk to feed your mental (not intellectual) activities.


Mooo! 🐮


What do you recommend to preach a healthy prasadam diet?


Two very dear devotees with whom I had very good association, Prabhu Jay Gadadhar and Radha Raman, have left the body, now it is very difficult for me to find good associations, I appreciate very much the efforts of devotees who preach and pray for good association.

Thanks for your attention, your crew member AniruddhaKrsna Das.


HpS - You will be following them soon! 🙂

You will find new, young people coming to this movement who are more intelligent and sincere than we are. Good association.

Krsna is our only friend!

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

Please accept our humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada


I hope you are in very good health.


HpS/ASA - and... AgtSP... we hope you are richer than Bill Gate, stronger than Superman and the next Pope of the Catholic church! 😆


I have not lost hope that you will be encouraged to return to Peru at some point so that we can receive the mercy of being able to see you, serve you and enjoy your association.


HpS - Why not rent the Yatch Hanuman for the weekend and sail to Houston?


We have been chanting the Maha Mantra again for a few months now, resuming our studies and service to the Deity and we are complying with the principles and regulations. As I mentioned before, for the time being, due to work responsibilities and my master's degree, I cannot commit much more to Srila Prabhupada's service.


HpS ASA --- Hey! Do your thesis for Srila Prabhupada. Make money for Krsna. Maintain your family and body for Krsna.



For the moment, I can only wonder about such basic issues as what association with devotees means, or what the inability to connect the details of my life with Krishna's will represents. In the meantime, I ask you: we stopped chanting the Gayatri Mantra and would like to know if you could give us the opportunity to chant it again. Indira Sakti dd and I would like to return to the standard of worship we once had and at some point offer service to Radha Madhana Bihari. This can only happen under your auspices and with your permission, so we humbly ask for your instruction in this regard.


HpS - As far as I know, if you haven't chanted for one year then you have to hear it again.

Also, if you had gross.

GROSS.

Fall down from the brahminical life like Ajamil, then takes like a year of following before taking up the deity worship again.


If you all take to Srila Prabhupada's education, you can be tremendous help to so many people.

Lord Caitanya was always happy!!!!

Heartily happy!!!!

Thank you for you association.

Write to us on WhatsApp for confidential details!!!!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!

You have already done so much!



Always grateful to you

Your servant, Gandharva das


ASA - Nice photos! We added a boat for you to use!!!

Pregunta sobre depresión.

1 month, 1 week ago by Yulisa Yugala in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hk pamho querido Guru Maharaja, aquí reportándome, regresé muy feliz de un pueblito piadoso de Murcia, me quedé con una devota amiga de Prabhu Karuna, ella suele venir como voluntaria a NVM.

Se separó de su esposo y no se recupera. Es común encontrarme con gente depresiva, mucha gente se acerca a Krsna por temor a la pobreza, por aflicción, etc. Por eso quería saber que nos recomienda, como podemos ayudar a esas personas, como ellas pueden sobrepasar esas dualidades, la mayoría sufrimos por condicionamiento material. Todos quieren algo necesitan algo, algunos están más locos que otros, frustrados, todo esto hace que descuiden sus prácticas espirituales, merme su fe, muchos caen en inacción.

Le mando unas fotos como reporte de mi servicio en NVM. Y algunas del evento, muy poca gente, faltó publicidad efectiva, algunos creían que venía de India. Recordando Su espíritu, pensé que, aunque sólo hubiera una persona, me esforzaría igual que si fueran 100. Fue una bonita experiencia.

Gracias a sus bendiciones y la venía de Krsna, aunque estamos en cero, sin un plan trazado, espero pronto tenerle un reporte con el que espero aportar en España al Movimiento de sankirtan de Lord Caitanya.

Su humilde sirviente:

Yugala Kisora Dasi (El león blanco de Brihuega)

Hello, dear Guru Maharaja, reporting here,


HpS/ASA - Jaya!! AgtSP. Paoho.


I returned very happily from a pious little town in Murcia. I stayed with a devoted friend of Prabhu Karuna. She often comes to NVM as a volunteer.


She separated from her husband and hasn't recovered.

It's common to encounter depressed people.


Many people turn to Krishna out of fear of poverty, affliction, etc. That's why I wanted to know your recommendations,

how we can help these people,

how they can overcome these dualities.


Most of us suffer from material conditioning. Everyone wants something, needs something, some are crazier than others, frustrated. All of this causes them to neglect their spiritual practices, diminishes their faith, and many fall into inaction.


I'm sending you some photos as a report of my service at NVM. And some from the event.

Very few people,

there was a lack of effective publicity,

and some thought I was coming from India.


Remembering His spirit, I thought that even if there were only one person, I would make the same effort as if there were 100. It was a wonderful experience.


Thanks to your blessings and Krishna's blessing, although we are at zero, without a plan in place, I hope to soon have a report with you with which I hope to contribute to Lord Caitanya's sankirtan movement in Spain.


Your humble servant,


Yugala Kisora ​​Dasi (The White Lion of Brihuega)



HpS - AgtSP. We cannot say much about depression. I guess the best Sanskrit word is Shoka. Lamentation. That is described as Arjuna's state at the start of the Bhagavad Gita, through out the Gita, and in the end Krsna says, surrender unto me and you will not Shocati. Lament.


Brahma bhuta prsanatma...


I see, many times, my mind is falling into lamentation, because my stomach is upset. Of course, it could also be our even lower chakra.


Then, if I give my stomach some Prasadam, it is "happy".

Not enough rest.

Checking with our face to see if it is "smiling, happy" or "frowning, depressed".

Just a bodily reaction. Of course a spouse can be viewed as a complex physical, psycho-social machine for complex bodily gratification.


Hare Krsna!!!

HARE KRSNA!!!!!!!


If we want to lament, develop complicated systems of lamentation:

  • He said this. They said that.
  • He doesn't understand me.
  • I am a monster.
  • No one can love me.
  • I will smoke opium, tobacco, marijuana... shoe-polish and die. Sleep.


Then Krsna can't do much to stop us. We want enjoy elation, we want to enjoy depression.


Yet, Krsna is more kind than just, so even if we want to be depressed, then He still tries to tickle our funny bone...

Make us laugh.

Send a friend.

Send some courage.


You don't have to chose to be a victim.

Look at any depressing situation with a service attitude and then you can develop enthusiasm.

Eg. My boss is a moron, neurotic. Always verbally abusing me and others.


How can I help him?


What abuse is really deserved and good for me!

What abuse is just part of his insane view of reality based upon his childhood.

How can I listen to what he is saying and help him with his problem?

At least a little bit, today!

If we help from a Krsna conscious platform (BG 700 verses [Just see what a sunny day it it]) SB 18,000 verses... Devahuti's Laments, then every little bit of help will eternally build up.


Not all lamentation is material.

Radha and Her friends are drowning in the ocean of grief because Candravali and Her friends made better cookies for Krsna and the cow herd boys!


Ayi de mi, caramaba. Boo Hoo Hoo! 🐶 😿

(15 year, 8 year old little girls!)


Prahlada is lamenting for all the imbeciles caught in the material world.

Lament for our fall-downs but just for purification. Don't make a mountain out of it. Do something practical to get back up.


So, these are some thoughts.

  • Listen to the lamentation. 🙉
  • Give Krsna practical conscious comments, encouragement. 👷
  • Set a good example. 

O.K.???

TlgaSP! Amado Gurudev,


por favor acepte mis reverencias y permítame ser perdonada por los años en que estuve alejada de su corazón y de la gratitud incondicional de Srila Prabhupada. Fueron años de mucho ajuste de Karma que con la bendita aparición de mi hijita, maya disminuyó su gran influencia y la conciencia volvió a recordar la verdad eterna. Agradecida de las Vaisnavis que siempre estuvieron presentes y de usted amado Guruji por su infinita tolerancia, paciencia y compasión. Siempre, aún en mi más baja oscuridad, recordaba su dulce amabilidad. Y en ésta Vyasa Puja agradezco la oportunidad de poder escribirle y tener su misericordiosa atención. Deseo que usted mejore su salud y se sienta muy bien (reconozco el gran egoísmo de mi parte en esta petición). Sueño con poder verlo y compartir con usted como antes, está vez junto a mi dulce hijita. 


Feliz cumpleaños mi muy querido Maestro Espiritual. Que el Glorioso y protector Nrsimha Deva lo siga cuidando. 


Con mucho amor y respeto,

Ekangi DD

TlgaSP! Beloved Gurudev,


Please accept my obeisances and allow me to be forgiven for the years I was separated from your heart and from Srila Prabhupada's unconditional gratitude.


HpS/ASA - Speaking quite esoterically, agtSP, we really thought about your esteemed self often, hoping the best for you as you wandered in the world or Shakespeare and Don Quixote. Monkey was pretty sure you would come back up: She's too mean to drown! 🐒


They were years of great karma adjustment, but with the blessed appearance of my little daughter, maya diminished its great influence and my consciousness once again remembered the eternal truth.


I am grateful to the Vaishnavis who were always present and to you, beloved Guruji, for your infinite tolerance, patience, and compassion. Always, even in my deepest darkness, I remembered your sweet kindness. And in this Vyasa Puja, I am grateful for the opportunity to write to you and have your merciful attention.


I hope your health improves and that you feel very well (I recognize the great selfishness on my part in this request).


HpS/ASA - Should we all just pray to rot and die as soon as possible so that we can get back to our real life and responsibilities in Nabadvipa?? 😟 of course, if Gauranga wants us here, then O.K.!!


I dream of being able to see you and share with you as before, this time with my sweet little daughter.


ASA🐖 - little piggys are really the cutest!


Happy birthday, my very dear Spiritual Master. May the glorious and protective Nrsimha Deva continue to watch over him.


With much love and respect,


Ekangi DD


HpS - Thank you so much.

Practice loving sense objects in this world as replicas of Goloka, but chant nice rounds etc to see the REAL form of our associates.

Today I sent another letter to Dr. Samaresh Bandyobadhyay; I await his reply. Right now I'm hard at work, designing two medical books for Primary Health Care. The author studied medicine at San Marcos and Harvard. She is a believer, intelligent, and pious.


She may be elected dean of the Faculty of Medicine, which would allow us to try to introduce Krishna consciousness to that important faculty.


Gurudeva, besides practicing and preaching yuga-dharma, is there anything I can do for you now? I'm attentive.


Thank you for remembering your insignificant disciple. JAY SRI RAMA!!!!


HpS/ASA

Hare Krsna/Hare Rama.

So very, very nice to hear from you.

Such good news.
