AGTSP !

Please accept or humble obeisances

Dear Maharaja

   HpS - ASA --  AGTSP paoho.  One month and three days since you wrote this! We were like in India, no? No internet for one month.

Vyasapuja !   Maharaja we thought it was on Feb 2nd !  forgive our foolishnes.  We can't express how much you are inspiring and moving forward my spiritual life in Krsna Consciousness.  And the devotees around notice it, we hope some day to be able to serve you better than now, OheVaishnava Thakura !     we are speechless, such fools..your mercy is driving us forward.  Srila prabhupada   ki  jaya !

Here we are back in Montreal. We decided to spend more time on the asrama, from Tuesday to Friday so far,  we get so many things done that way saddhana, studies of books, service, etc   We found a very nice book from Damodara Swami `"Synthesis of Science and Religion"  on the Temple library, big book published right on Prabhupada's centennial,  lots of lectures from the programs of Bhaktivedanta Institute, symposiums etc..  we are studying that one also.  We want to serve you and possibly bring the NIOS program to Montreal, but we are preparing our spiritual selves and wating for your instructions on the matter.  There are two main english universities here  Concordia U (we are alumni)  and McGill.   The rest two important colleges are French.   We are in contact with a devotee who just opened a satellite centre in the intellectual, artistic neighborhood also.

          HpS - Hare Krsna Hare Rama... If Krsna lets us get in the mode of goodness we hope this article on Jung written with Dr. R. P. Singh (NGDas) will be published. It will be a nice platform for approaching univerities.  

The Rathayatra in Montreal is very nice, not as big as the Toronto one but very nice,  Lord Jagannatha  rests right next to Mont royal  were Prabhupada used to have His morning walks in '68.    Usually the Montreal yatra is followed by the Toronto yatra  that makes for a double transcendental week.   

Please forrgive our foolishnes in not finding words to honour your Vyasapuja,  we are just singing Ohe Vaishnava Thakura over and over and remembering you.

your servant

                HpS - AGTSP. . . Srila Prabhupada made his Generals (and soldiers) from MUD....  please go ahead!!!

NitayGouraPremanande!! Querido y siempre recordado GuruMaharaja,

por favor acepte mis humildes reverncias,

TODAS LAS GLORIAS A SRILA PRABHUPADA!!!

                                                        Muchas Gracias a Krsna, que pude obtener su misericordiosa repuesta a una de las varias cartas que le envié, me siento muy afortunada porque apesar de que ud. está saturado de tantas correspondencias y con una Super Agenda de actividades, compasivamente se da un  tiempo para responder a una necia carta como la mía,

           HpS - ASA --- TlgaSP. Pfanrh.... Descupla la demurra responder mucho. Si, viaje, pero tambien flojo.

. . . afines de Enero pude conversar con P. Aravinda das  con respecto al termino de la Deuda antigua que tuve con el BBT producto de la emfermedad de mis riñones, el año pasado fué de momentos críticos en mi vida tanto material como espiritual, sumergida en Gastos y mas Gastos que demandan los tratamientos  de salud y los de mi Padre, y una ansiedad muy grande porque no podia pagar mi Deuda con el BBT,  decidí no pedir mas Libros porque no queria endeudarme  Más , (fué un acto de Conciencia, porque el BBT es la sangre de Prabhupada y es lo más sagrado para mí) pasé una etapa muy dolorosa  pues, andaba alejada de la distribución de Libros, era como un cuerpo muerto, por eso pase la verguenza de pedir ayuda a mis hermanos espirituales, p. Aristasena  me ayudó con una parte de la deuda y otro poco fué p. Maitreya  se pudo reunir aprox. la mitad, antes de la Marathón recordé que habia un Laxmi de las Sankirtanera que donaron para mi salud, conversando con P. Aravinda acordamos usar una parte de ese Laxmi para cubrir el resto de la Deuda.... .ahora, me encuentro mas tranquila, organizo 2 semanas para colectar haciendo faciales de belleza a las Madres, y otras 2 semanas en Sankirtam de Libros,   ocupo buen tiempo en cocinar prasadam Dieta,y hierbas medicinales, tengo que esperar a que mis riñones salgan de su saturación en las mañanas,  el poco tiempo que dedico a colectar no me alcanza para cubrir todas las necesidades basicas, pero, siempre, ocurren situacones favorables que me ayudan, estoy muy Feliz Querido Gurudev, porque la dicha mas grande que puedo experimentar es verlo a ud. y continuar con mi Sankirtam, esperarlo con con una guirnalda hecha con los resultados de los Libros de Prabhupada en mis manos que es la Misericordia sin causa proveniente de su divina Compasión!

                                                                                                   Radhe, Radhe, Radhe.......

su inútil y torpe sirvienta

m. Jambavati d.d.

 - HpS - Jaya! Adelantando apreciamos que nuestra cuerpo es intrumento de Krsna y no pertence a nosotros, no? Mejor usa de una mala ganga. Viviendo como nuestros alumnos pueden seguir nuestros pasos. Era bien eoncontrar a Vd. y TODOS mientras Gaura purnima en Mexico. Mas!
Distribuiendo libros a distribuiedores!

Todas las glorias a sus señorías más misericordiosas Sri Sri Gaura Nitay y a su movimiento de sankirtana

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada

PAMHO, hare krsna querido gurudeva, le escribo desde Chosica - Mandir, tratando de que los 4 principios sean estrictos, mangala artik con radha madhana Vihari y por la fiesta de Gaura purnima me propuse cantar 25 rondas diarias para poder saborear mejor el maha mantra Hare krsna, ahora con P. Gadai Gauranga das estámos entrando al servicio de la madrugada como asistentes, turnándonos por día, entrando al puyari con 8 rondas a realizar servicio, los días que no me toca entrar como asistente yo entro al altar para aprender con M. Gaura G. D. a cambiar a sus señorías Gaura Nitay, me siento muy felíz  el poder estar al lado de ellos y le oro para que nunca me abandonen y me manden al exilio fuera del sankirtana por ser tan afensivo, aveces me siento muy triste  porque no estoy dando libros de SP en las calles pero a la ves veo a Gaura Nitay y siento que puedo servir de una u otra manera  en su sankirtana.

Gaura Purnima fué muy hermoso cocinamos; galletas, queques, pies y salados con p. Padapadma. Hemos estado leyendo Manual de adoración de Chosica, El Pancaratra pradipa, Cosmología Védica traducido por Niranjana Das de Isckon, Etiqueta vaisnava y citas hermosas de Prabhupada y Bagavad Gita cap. 3 karma yoga.

Caytania Cartamrta, difícil de dejarlo, tiene todo, desde como atender a un sannyasi y las comidas que le ofrecia Adveita Acarya a Mahaprabhú hasta el amor extático del señor Caytania y otras cosas sorprendentes difíciles de concebir.

Mi sankirtana en estos tres meses desde que terminó la marathon de Prabhupada ha sido solo de dos dias de sankirtana con 30 libros pequeños, gracias a krsna pude al menos volver por un instante al servicio que siempre amo y quiero realizarlo por todo el tiempo corto de mi existencia en éste cuerpo, pude salir con M. Gaura Karuna Sakti d.d., mi hermana espiritual y m. Lilasakti d.d., fué muy bonito, aprendí a  hacer buses  en el distrito de Huaycán y estoy planeando salir con alguna otra madre al menos en las tardes a distribuir libros y también con m. gaura karuna sakti ir a los colegios e institutos, me gusta aprender las muchas maneras de dar libros. Libro de m. Janmbavati muy inspirador.

Bueno gurudeva gracias por su valioso tiempo, apesar de que ud. está lejos físicamente lo siento tan cerca cuando lo recuerdo y lo veo en mis sueños contantemente.

Tratando de mejorar

HpS - ASA - TlgaSP Pfanrh. Muy bien! Todo los Gosvamis tuvieron Sus deidades y predican y adoraban. So bien relacionado como do carrilles del "train", pero por que es Kali yuga, Sankirtana es el carrilla que tiene que dirigir.

Agt Radha y Krsna!

Please accept my humble oblations Maharaja!

I wish You are nice in all aspects Maharaja!

About the priciples, Yes Maharaja, strictly.

Yours. At Your feet.

Bhakta Pablo.

HpS - AGTSP. 16/4 .. Mangala arati -SB for one year.... You can take initiation.

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

It has been very long since I have written. After my wedding and moving 6 months ago I became very absorbed in material life (still am). I'm going to the gym often preparing for a police officer job in one year. Reb and I are still working at the same place. We haven't gone to the temple much over the last few months, but are now prioritizing this more. We are getting ready for a nice Gaura Purnima program tomorrow. Haribol! We have also just started reading Mahabharata. We still at the beginning, just before the incident with the wax house.

I have had a few inspiring conversations with another householder devotee here. He told us about a sadhana chart he was using to keep track of his reading/japa. It's nice and organized in a spreadsheet, suits my style a bit. We will start tracking our daily sadhana there. 

I haven't been in touch with Sri Hari prabhu from Boise in some time. I am hoping that over the next few  months I will be able to continue with good sadhana and take the pursuit of first initiation more seriously. Radhika Raman Prabhu moved to Utah a while ago to teach at one college north of where we live. I had the thought the other day that because he is an advanced devotee, and also one of your disciples, it might make good sense to take siska from him. What is  your opinion?? 

I hope this letter meets you in good health and high spirits! We will be in Boise for Ratha Yatra again this year. Haribol!

Bhakta Adrian-Utah

HpS - Jaya!!! Career in law enforcement. Sounds nice. Devotee, our Student, in Spain  is police man for many years. Yes, Radhika is very nice association. Also, he would like to get your association very much!! Contact him as soon as possible.

Seems that you are on the right path. All you have to do it continue. Of course, that takes innovative thinking, how to do the same thing every day. Sounds like a paradox, but it is not. Unless you are improving you are falling down.

Hare Krsna Maharaja!

Agt Srila Prabhupa! Please Accept my humble obeisances.

Thank you for answer my above questions... All clear. The last question I wrote, was about my service. I am going to trying to write it in english: I keep on 16 rounds for day, and keep on regulations but sometimes the service its hard for me.. because it is difficult to link up the action to serve with the cause, Krsna . I have a fixed service in the pujari.. like an assistant of pujari all wednesday during the morning and sometimes its difficult to me thinking that I do it for Krsna... How can I improve that? That is the pending question of the last time.

HpS - Well, AGTSP paoho. It seems that it should be natural. The Deity IS Krsna, so adjusting His clothes for example is service to Him. But service to the Deity as a person requires to be in a little bit advanced position. First we can realize Krsna is a person by hearing about Him and talking about Him. Then we can realize His Form, the Deity, then His characteristics. (NOI 7-8).

Play a nice Kirtan or chant while you work.

On the other hand, today i am very happy because yesterday in Gaura Purnima, I had Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mercy to be in the altar in front of deities for the first time. I was making all the decoration for a few hours and it was amazing. I was thinking in Krsna all the time inevitably. Also you was there in that beautiful moment for me, because there were a disciple of you, serving to Gaura Nitai and he had your picture. And that was fantastic. I think that maybe Nityananda Prabhu are show me something that I had been asked him for several times... something about who should to be my gurudeva... but maybe its just a coincidence.... (I dont think so) :B

Attach a Gaura Nitai's photo I took them, yesterday!

Thank you for share your rounds by japa joe.. it is a very nice inspiration for me

Your aspirant of servant,
