Hare Krsna Querido Y Recordado GURUDEVA

Porfavor Acepte mis Humildes Reverencias

Todas las glorias a Srla Prabhupada

Espero q esta carta lo encuentre en buen estado de salud.

HpS - O.K. pero tenemos 66-anos en esta cuerpo y los ojos, por ejemplo, no pueden funcionar tan fuerte para interenet como antes.

Gurudeva gracias a su miscericordia y a las bendiciones de nuestras autoridades directas P Aravinda, Guruprasad Swami y Bhakti Busana Swami, los libros pudieron ser traidos de venezuela a Colombia, pues por la dificil situacion de Venezuela amenazaban con quemar los libros, pero gracias a Goura y  a Nitay todas las 51 cajas de libros ya estan a salvo y estan siendo distribuidas en una marato que estamos llevando acabo aqui en colombia. Hay dos grupos de sankirtan de devotos y devotas nosotros estamos en la zona norte de colombia y las devotas en la zona sur, parece que los libros tenian mucho desceo de ser distribuidos porque pudimos cubrir la cuota de toda la semana que perdimos intentando recuperarlos en tan solo 3 dias, Krsna es muy miscericordioso.

                  HpS - ASA - Senor Caitanya es TAN BONDADOSO....

Gurudeva me he enterado que estara en Mexico DF en  GOURA PURNIMA :(  me alegra mucho por los devotos del df, pero esos dias nosotros estaremos a mitad de la maraton aqui en colombia, y desafortunadamente no podre estar en su visita, sin emvargo mi corazon esta a sus pies intentando seguir su intruccion y la de Srla Prabhupada, seguimos  en la calle distribuyendo esta filosofia trascendental, aumentando la cantidad de rondas diaras a 20 min, 4 principios, mangala y gurupuja Diario.

                    HpS - Super Hombre!

Querido Gurumaharaja, porfavor expliqueme como puedo avanzar en mi servicio devocional a la suprema personalidad de Dios, pues aun no he podido controlar los seis impuldos, y me cuesta mucho trabajo tener intercambios amorosos con los devotos, soy como una oveja en la calle pero un leon con los devotos, las austeridades del habla siguen siendo mi gran debilidad y no siento apego aun por cantar el santo nombre de manera entusiasta, debo seguir cortando las malas hiervas de mi corazon.

gracias por su miscericorda para conmigo Gurudeva, cada vez que medito en Ud la alegria viene a mi servicio devocional y la calle se vuelve como un templo.

Su Sirviente

                        HpS - Pues Vd. conocen MUY BIEN todo las requisitos por que esta citando las faltas de una manera muy experto. Un tonto no conocen cuales son los faltas. Esta indica bastante advanza. Pienso es claro Vd. estuva un monje, devoto, en su vida anterior.

Pienso tiene que adelantar en la linea que sigue, eso es el mejor, afilando, no cambiando.
Voy a quedar en Sankirtan viajero para mas tiempo?
Voy a seguir Kardama Muni y ser casado con "Devahuti" y tener Senor Kapila para Hijo? O va a seguir sendero de Narada Muni? Indicacion?

hare krisna beloved gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances,

All glories to srila prabhupada,

here we are in mar del plata, living in the association of devotees struggling to take shelter in the internal potency of the lord. harinama.

gurudeva you are the greatest benediction in my life,

      HpS - ASA - AGTSP we are making a very small effort. Some sincerity. The benediction comes because Krsna is using us!

...a living proof of sastra, a secure shelter for fallen souls. You possess the qualities of an exalted vaisnava and your example is a huuuge source of inspiration for myself and im sure so many many other devotees.

. . . after initiation sadhana fell apart, a waterfall of material desires drawned my regulation, had to finish rounds the next day. but

16 rounds ok 4 principles ok. preaching fine and growing, real life.

. . . arrows of lusty desires struck me very often. longing of family life. we seek intelligence in the mahamantra. No plans but chant and survive.

i feel tremendous gratitude of being aware of my possition, my weakness, makes me staying alert.

We are so fortunate, here at sama our health center we receive the visit of senior devotees very often, two weeks ago SS bhakti sundar maharaj was here for a week. we felt like narada muni serving the sadhus as the son of a sudrani.

i stopped  worshipping the little gaura nitai deities and im helping in adorarion of the big one. im focusing in japa.

Since a week ago we restablished our sadhana and we are having morning program finishing rounds before starting to work. i realized everything expands from there. aiming mode of goodness for further advance.

Gurudeva your mercy is unlimited,

seeking your lotus feet,

Nikunja Bihari das.

            HpS - Jaya! AGTSP! I think we could say the exact same thing as you. We follow 16/4 and more but also things like this trip to India, etc. They confuse us. We read in Hari nama Cintamani that if a devotee is dexterous in Sadhana he can wake up his natural love for Krsna and take up his service in Vaikuntha again very quickly, even a few days, but if he does not do it so expertly it can take several life times.

Maybe you and I are products of this several life time path.

We have to get good at Sadhana in a very simple practical way, use lots of mechanical though transcendental tricks eg. stop and chant one-round each hour.

So, news from Mar de Plata.

We HOPE news from education soon.

We write a DTC in a few moments with you all in mind. Thank you. Respects to all.

PAMHO
 

Gurudeva we have been following your activities through twitter and the photos from the devotees who are india (they share them on facebook), we feel really happy to have iur association in that way… but we miss Japa joe :(

Our Nityananda Trayodasi festival was so so nice extremely nice.. we had the opportunity to share the service with so many people … as U told us once the position of the person in charge is to occupy others devotees in service… Personally this year Nitai gave me another service Madhumati dd and me prepared the sweets for the festival at home ¡¡ we finished at midnight and with the salty preparations and sweets  we had more than 108 preparations ¡¡¡ Wilson was full, the program was complete, abhishek, maha prasadam, kirtan, class, concert, dance theater ¡¡¡¡ the whole atmosphere was so nice ¡¡¡¡¡ 

CMDD is still alive fixed on her sadhana,rounds, principles, study, etc but but but maya is so strong gives a good fight and whenever I feel a kind of weakness I asked for good advice from Madhumanjari dd she is really helpful I trust her very much ¡¡¡ I write to her in order not to bother U.

THis sunday I am going to sing with some devotees in one festival in wilson in order to collect for Gaura Nitai ¡¡¡ Gaura purnima is comming soon ¡¡¡ JAYA  

Please give me iur blessings in order not to be an embarrassment for U and to continue with my journey going back home ¡¡¡

Thank U all so much for all iur inspiration and blessings

always trying to be iur disciple

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

HpS - AGTSP! paoho. We are REALLY exhausted from this/these trips. For three weeks in India it was cold and we didn't have warm closthes. Every day there was so much emotional pressure from Administration, meeting with Students, Friends. One morning 35-people approached us before class.

Ha!    Ha!  Hare!

All we can all do is chant as much as possible and then follow the good advice that comes from that chanting.

Now we do some rounds and Kirtan and Reading.

Thank you for your association!!!

Letter to the Eiditor

"

hare krsna maharaj,
pamho, agtsp,
two days back we went to meetABC Prabhu and his wife DEF

some strange facts ame up for us.
our wife and kid also went, there.

though they are nice couple, but i dont know/think if they can work as Asrama guru.

lots of practicall issues have plagued our life completely..
untimely prasadam,  diety worship standards, incomplete rounds, illicit sex etc.

moreover our own lack of Krsna consciousncess, and ability to connect to Krsna. esp in tough times has create lots of problem.
it seems there is lot of self-pity we have on us.

in todays arugement our wife asked/commented

ISK is creating Brahamans, not house holder vaisnavas. one must know house holder skill himself and not depend on ISK, then he can learn vaisnavism.

majority householders dont/cant teach me.
 

this fact is amplified by seeing lot of remarriages, single ladies and single men in ISK esp..

and we dont have answer where should we goto to learn householder skills. everywhere we have went with our wife we have met failure. 
 
..and esp dovetailing householder asrama.

we are heavily stressed in understanding priorities of houseolder life in general and in emergency.

we think we should not get intiated, we like to take back our formal candidate application.

regards,
XYZ

hope we would have been celibate or would have known basic house holder skills... and would served you.."

HpS - ASA - Bachelor, Married, These are secondary. First thing is Chant Hare Krsna, Holy Names as directed by an Acharya like Lord Caitanya, Christ or Mohammad. The follow the four principles as the suggest. Then you will be happy and otherwise will suffer for every.

Ask your Christian scholar what the Bible says about sex in marriage, all the quotes, not just the ones he wants to give and let us all know.

Querido Gurumaharaja:

Por favor acepte mis reverencias!

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada !

 El día domingo tuvimos una buena reunión de hermanos espirituales:

Lalita Gopi DD, Angada D, Sacinandana D. Gopi Radha DD. Deva Darshan D. Karuna Sakti DD. Arya Srestha D. Saranagati D. Aindavi DD. Govinda Pramodini DD. Bhaktin Dulce, Bhakta Alan, Bhakta Yair,  Bhakta Francisco y Asta Sakhi DD.

Las convocaciones y acuerdos siempre enviamos por mail, facebook  a todos los discípulos y aspirantes.

SOBRE EL DOCTOR KAWAZAKI:

Estoy en comunicación con karuna Sakti y Jambavati quienes se han comunicado con el doctor para ver la posibilidad de que se reuna con Ud el día domingo 16 Marzo, respondio que le resulta bastante dificil por ser el único día que descansa. Menciono que el día martes puede recibir el monto faltante.

Gurumaharaja podemos fijar que las matajis hagan el pago o Ud necesita que tratemos de hacer arrgelos extras (lo cual sería muy incierto) para ver al doctor ??

Es importante definir esto para poder hablar con Krsna Balarama prabhu y fijar un horario, asimismo esto dependera del horario de clase que las autoridades del Templo proponga para UD en el festival.

Estoy en comunicación con las autoridades del Templo para estar enterada de estos detalles, posible la ceremonia de fuego sea en la tarde-noche, pero falta afinar más .

Por ahora debo enviar a la Junta del templo la lista y reporte actual de los aspirantes formales para que ellos evaluen, asi como la propuesta de dos aspirantes para formalidad, ellos escribiran a Ud.

NOTA IMPORTANTE:

Gurumaharaja en la lista de Guru tattva falta el nombre de bhakta Marco de México como aspirante formal.
