Mis repetuosas reverencias a Srila Prabhupada¡¡¡

Mis respetuosas reverencias a Su Santidad ¡¡¡

Maharaja, estuve de viaje y descuide de leer el Srimad Bhagavatam, por unos dias. Continuo cantando 3 rondas temprano, y durante el día llego a 16 Maharaja; todavia no puedo evitar el deseo sexual  siempre estoy orando por que pueda seguirlos siempre ;cantando artik en el dia y en la noche, tomando siempre prasadam, dibujando y daliendo a Sankirtan a veces.

              ASA - TLGASP. Necesita mas adoracion de deidades. Banando cada dia, cambiando ropa etc. Con idea de Krsna como persona, idea del cuerpo como persona disminuir, deseos sexuales, raros.

Lectura de libros: Maharaja, en el Krishna Book vamos junto con mi abuelita en "Oraciones  de los Vedas personificados" por segunda vez; en el Néctar de la Devocion, estoy en el capitulo cuarenta por tercera vez ; en el SB : en el primer canto capitulo tres, por segunda vez; en el BG : en el capitulo 14  por segunda vez.

Maharaja, un curandero me curo y hecho de mi a los malos espiritus que estaban en mi cuerpo; desde ahi me di cuenta que esa energia que sentia en mi era un bhuta, y me di cuenta que para percibir a Paramatma necesito purificarme mas, ahora estoy mejor y ya no me siento peresozo, recien se me da por bañarme. Maharaja ahora puedo dejar de tomar los medicamentos, es que estos medicamentos tambien arruinan mi estomago y me causa estreñimiento.

Maharaja, mi abuelita se volvio mas devota y se ha interesado mas en la vida espiritual, y ha desarrollado cierto conocimiento y determinacion, siempre esta cantando 16 rondas, y a veces hasta hace muchas más; ella sabe leer pero no mucho, por eso le  leo todos los dias,  cantamos los artik juntos, ella sigue los principios mejor que yo y siempre toma prasadam.

                           HpS - ASA -- Muy bien!!!  Unos fotos de sus dibujos??

AGT SRILA PRABHUPADA!

Agt Nitay y Gauranga!
Please accept my humble obeisances! 
Hare Krsna Maharaja, I am Bhakta pablo of Parikrama from Spain. 
I hope You are very well in all aspects when you receive this letter. And I hope that Krsna give many blessings and protection. 
I wanted to comment that I was talking with 24 Kirtan Mayapur, for the requirement, few problems if there is continuous chanting, but I think maybe it´s better when my duties are done, (what is your opinion?). 

ASA - Don't  know?

I remain firm with the idea of dedicating a Sankirtana traveler, (it's okay for me?) Is good for a devotee like me use book distribution for to keep me ?? 
        ASA - Could be. Have to know the details!

Soon will be the Vyasa-puja of Jayapataka Maharaja, and as you know I love him a lot too, (you 2 have my heart) and I would like to write this year by Vyasa-puja as well-wisher and want ask  to accept my be my Siksa-guru, is it correct that prompted this?,  You reviewer?, looks it good, my request is correct?? .... The truth, not know how it goes...

    ASA - Of course, is very nice.
 

Few days ago I read a very nice Bhakti Caru Maharaja text in which he spoke that in Krsna consciousness one can ask questions about Krsna, God, without being ugly and not as in other religions .. etc, Prabhupada said "ask, I have the answer "and so, and at the end says" Just like a subject has to be Studied Systematically Following specific books, under the guidance of qualified teachers, This process has to be Studied also Following a specific syllabus under the guidance of the qualified . teachers ", my question is please, which means" Studied Following a specific syllabus ... "?? 

           ASA - It may be this idea of Bhakti Sastri, Bhakti vaibhava, Bhakti vedanta that Srila Prabhupada suggested. Look at the Introduction to SB you will see life of Lord Caitanya and Prabhupada says that he doesn't include all the discussions between Lord Caitanya and Ramananda Raya because they are for more advanced devotees.

Thank you so much for everything Maharaja, and forgive me for so long robe. 
At His feet. 
Bhakta Paul. 
Hare Krsna.

Todas Las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj por favor reciba mis respetuosas reverencias, seguimos en el servicio de asistentes de pujaris, ahora me levanto a las 2 am y canto 10 rondas de Japa junto a mi esposa Nadiya Nivasi, despues pasamos a realizar nuestro servicio en el templo, en el resto de la mañana terminamos nuestras 16 rondas antes de las 9 y 30 am, despues cantamos algunas rondas extras, también siguiendo los 4 principios, leyendo el Caitanya Caritamrta y el Bhagavad - Gita, Mangal Artik en el templo.

Aprendiendo a entender y valorar el servicio a las Deidades, tambíén sabiendo relacionarnos con los devotos del pujari de una manera respetuosa y aprendiendo  mucho de ellos.

A  LAS   SILAS  LES   GUSTA   MUCHO   EL   DULCE  Y  TAMBIÉN  EL  SANKIRTAN!!!

¿como esta su salud? ¿vendra por segunda ves a Perú este año 2014?. Bueno Guru Maharaj me despido que Krsna y Balarama lo protejan mucho, un abrazo. Hare Krsna.

Gadai Gauranga Das

AGTSP. Paoho. Gracias los benos noticios, as, is....  Diedades y Libros, dos lineas del ferril caril. Necesitamos amobs. pero por es Kali yuga, Sankirtan tiene que dirigir la adoracion de Deidad.

Pienso vamos a Sud America como Marzo, 2015. Vds tiene que visitar aqui. Despues de un tiempo vamos todo perdir nuestro movimiento. La conneccion es por la corazon.  Zooom!   Zooooooom!

Nos vemos!!!

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupad and Gurudev.

It's been a while that I wrote anything on the blog and few changes have occured in my professional and personal life.  My personal life is going well with "Nitai Chaitanya Chadra" 's krupa. I'm regularly attending Bhakti Yoga club in VCU (weekly once) and discussing on different topics with students (from BG and Nector of Instructions). So far so good, at least 6 to 10 students became regular and we are doing Japa (small one 27 beeds) and Kirtan, a 15 to 20 minutes class and prasadam.

And also we started (past 8 weeks) a "conference call" (weekly once an hour) with devotees from different placess (join on the phone) and have a clsss primarly on BG, but we also discuss on Nector of Instruction and during festival times "Krishna Katha".

With all the above (including our regular Bhakti Vriksh) my reading became regular and I started reading BG and SB and my chanting became more focused (became my source of energy, especially when I'm puzzled).

Maharaj, Is there a posibility to consider a trip to Richmond, VA in your schedule? we are all (including our ISKCON of Richmond) sincerly requesting and we all feel blessed if you consider.

Please pardon my ignorance Maharaj, have question. In BG 9.4 Krishna says, "everything is in me, but I'm not not in them" and in Bg15.15 "I'm in everyone's heart". How do we understand these two statements Maharaj.

Always your humble servant

Subala Sakha Das

HpS - AGTSP paoho. Such nice spread of Bhagavata culture all over the world. Then greed for selfish pleasures decreases and the Earth becomes happy. 15.15 means the Paramatma, no? So Krsna is not exactly present as Gopal but as the Paramatma. It is like the person controling the front door over a security camera, but we can also consider what happens in the heart of a devotee. Like the Prince and Princess going into the prison.

We are just settling down after four months of travel. It was almost lethal, so we have to see how our body recovers. you can see the current ideas in the calendar link in the Kapi Dhvaja. We were thinking of going to Washington D. C.  How far is that from Richmond???

Thank yoiu for your association and all the work. We hope the kids are also seeing life from a high perspective!

All Glories to Sri Sri Radha Krsna

All Glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitai

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Dear and Kind Guru Maharaja, firts of all allow me to put our stupid head beneath your most humble feet, we offer dandavats to you and Srila Prabhupada, over and over.  we also ask for the most merciful smack with a cane in the head.

     ASA - AGTSP paoho. Hmmm? What will come next! 

It has long been since our last conversation. Im so sorry for not writing sooner. We've been in the north of chile, kidnap by our family. we try to scape to braja, but our sentimentalism is bigger than our common sense. 

Family is fine, Gopal, Vrinda, Madhumati, Dayamani, Hari Bhakta all trying to survive. our health is not the best, many nerve problems, but getting better. its amazing how much our torerance to frustration has increase.

our  2 younger babies are completly insane, i think they think they are monkeys, the wild kind.  so we try to civilize them, and on that path we may  have become a lot like a gereral of the german army. 

We have tickets to Go back to Vrindavana the first days of may. if Srimati Radharani let us go, we had tickets before and we could not go!

plan is to stay there for a month and move to Rishikesh, we all would like to take a teacher training course in Yoga, Hatha yoga. and then maybe darmashala or Kerela for Tibetan/Ayurveda school and maybe a holy vaisnava safari in family.  

Our family (mom) is buying for us a land with a restaurant and the possibility of a Hotel in San pedro de Atacama, Chile.  very near where our family live in chile, so we can make a living and pay for college for kids (Gopal is 16!!!)  and after 10 years retreat to the holly Dham with a pension.    So we manage to convince family  to let us go for a year to India. and after that come back and make a nice self sustainable eco/turism farm.  its really high in the mountains and theres not much people, few hundred families but so many tourists. no contamination, no buildings, native people.  hope is a good idea.

We read your letters and ask all the time to Srimati Radharani to protect you, we dream about our spiritual master very  often, maybe most of those times out of guilt. but very nice dreams, so many answers.

right now we are writting with one hand and fighting and blocking babies with the other one. 

Hope you are well, so much preach, so much seva, so much inspiration Guru Maharaja. Thank you for being our fuel and source of inspiration.

At your feet,

Cakori Radha Devi dasi

                 HpS - Hmmm.  Very good news, but the Japa!!!  Otherwise you are all going to take birth as Indra and Saci devi in your next life!

Agt SP!

Agt Guru Y Gauranga!

Agt Radha Y Krsna!

Agt Gurudeva!

Pamho Maharaja.....o..

Hare Krsna Maharaja, soy B.Pablo del Parikrama, de España.

Sorry to write so quickly, but I would like to tell all my external situation exactly, because many times I am too introspective.

!6 rondas, 4 principios, Mangala arati ( no 2 days, I was extremely bodily tired ), Gaura arati and so happy, sooo sooo happy, but internally. Externally, I am in a heavy situation, but if but if I stand a little more, it'll all be gone, I explain ...

The government has spent months trying to not pay me my share (lol), can not, but they bother me delaying payments (6 months now), by these and other things, I could not pay a fine who got put Virginia (soon I hope to pay it), but I have to go to prison 60 days, is little little money, but the law is the law...haw haw haw and I don´t want my family money more, . This don´t disturbe me anything, really, except that not rot to go to India to Nrshimha to see Radha Krishna Dham and Sadhus....also is that I will to lose the money of the tickets, but really really that is any important to me. Actually I want go in Damodara more...will see what happen ( sure thing I will do. So I have to think and so I'm always thinking. You have taught me well maharaja. )

Virginia is fully possessed by his situation. In a very critical moment of his life, he decided to put his trust in a number of holes, materialists people, and it will cost much personal suffering that decision...

The only reason I do not go elsewhere is Varuna. It is a great person, very sensitive and it deserves the best. I can not leave him among the "pack of hyenas". Now he have 6 to 7 years, within 4 or 5 years, will take about 10 years, then I will continue my path and Varuna decide on its way.

I have many economic problems mainly because I deliberately decided to work with the family, evil doing. Are completely misguided. My father thinks I'm possessed and every time I start to pray Hare Krishna he show like he were praying with the rosary, but he is looking the tv...jajaja so pity. Is totally possessed for his gross gross desires.

My young brother is a nice person but is with the moon at 0 %, then his mind is like the wind and is totally controled for my father, like a child. Now whenever is laughing like mad, because he thinks I can control his mind ... jajaja. Like me elder brother, he live in Boston, had important job he is boss in chip design in a large company of fools, who has taught him that the world can only advance by slaves ... lol totally crazy because of his position and wealth. I laugh at them, all crazy.

A lot of people, many people have much envy me because I'm very independent and I have very very straight. I always say what I think, and if your  company is unbearable I continued " as a ñu "

Like my town, less that 500 persons, very close people, they only only eat fresh, uuuugggg....if you don´t eat meat, drink, and have pig-sex are crazy, any speak to me becouse I am crazy and I do black magic...my Japa, and chant " Hare Krsna "...black magic...jajaja. Are crazy.

If all goes well, within 1 or 2 months everything started very well resolved. I've spent years enduring this, I will not leave now, even if I get into prison, lol I laugh. Consciously or unconsciously all want to I stay away from my son.

When I finish my "obligation", I'll go to not ever back  if Krsna permits. Only Nama Sankirtana, single, Hare Krsna Hare Rama, Hare Krsna Hare Rama .... o ..

This years en medio I wish doing Sankirtan, preaching and distributing Maha-prasadam from my Nice Deaties.

Sorry for the letter soo long, butI have years without tell You details, are sooo horrible, You are not for that, I think, You give me Krsna, Realitation, and I have one eternal deb with You, I do not expect the stupid fools understand it, either my family or other.

Yours, at Your feet, Your servant B. Pablo.

Hare Krsna!

                   HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. Thank you for Enlglish translation. Helps a lot. Seems you are going ahead very, very well with a big battle. It took the Pandavas years to solve their problems but Krsna was using them.

Japa principles, GOOD morning program and get some good counselors, eg. Jayanta, Jara mara, Dandva, so many there. Yadu Swami. Then it will all have been benefit.
