Letters to the editor

               AGTSP.   paoho.  O.K.   We will read it.  We can't read it before we answer it.  Strange feature of the Blog. Maybe Prahlada nrsmrha can change that!

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada & All Glories to Sri Sri Goura & Nitay

Please accept my humbles obeisances

Hare Krsna dear Gurudeva, my english it´s no so good, but i´m learning, and i was thinking maybe this can make more easy to you your service. In this special day of ekadasi i want to thank you for answer my letters in spite of the inconveniences of the body. These letters are fundamental in my life.

I and my husband are living in Santigo, in house of my father for while, we are trying to adore the deities step by step. Senior devotees some of them give us advices about how  to do it in the house. The experience of have deities has been of great help to sing better rounds and follow the four principles.

We are distributing books together, and my service in the temple still is the festival of sankirtan in paseo ahumada, in this time we have done the same program in other such cities as Viña del mar, los Andes and Rancagua. I will send photos.

The next saturday the festival of sankirtan  will be with prabhu aravinda, he comes from Mexico for one week  and it is going to go.

I continue taking the course bhakti sastri with prabhu param padam.

Gurudev please excuses my offenses and thank you again for always giving  us your shelter

                  HpS -  AGTSP... Paoho.    So, nice to here from you Prabhu...   Yes, for Grhastha worship of the Deity is essential.  You are so lucky you seem to have good past credits, good husband, good father.  Now you just need good sons, ja, ja, ja.       Yet, you really need to have a good Guru most of all. Prabhupada is offering himself,so take advantage.  Get fixed in the standard for initited devotees as soon as possible or Maya's waves will be very strong and may even push us away from Krsna for some time or for some lives!!!          O.K?                        Send progress report!

well, i met KC since june 2010 through  Srila Prabhupada Book! Sri Isopanisad, it was a gift from a friend. i think i read it about 5 or 6 times, i was really atracted, even though i was so covered for intoxication that i didnt understood too much... i continued reading it and searching for more books, then it appeared beyond birth and death, and i found Sankarsan Das Adhikari web page backtohome.com and i started to chant Hare Krishna 1 round each day, and offered in the morning some vegetables to Krishna, but i added onion XD.

then i think Krishna wanted to send some help to me so he sent a sankirtana traveling party to Cuernavaca, i started to go with them to morning programs in the house they were renting, then going to sankirtan with them, and for the end of that week, i was following 4 reg principles, chanting 16 rounds and joined the sankirtana party,(that was for Srila Prabhupada's Marathon 2010) we finish that marathon at the mexico temple, there i met you for the first time, i still have with me the upadesamrta that you signed for me :D i read it from time to time to remember the goal of KC and the point where im situated right now. after that i returned to my home; 3 months later i joined Mexico temple, and as i wrote in the letter Aravinda Prabhu send to you i went to many diferent services for 2 years, and then this year in february i came to Cueramaro to keep my growth under Aravinda Prabhu's advice and serving the BBT.

Actually im working on the front and back matters of Srimad Bhagavatam in the re-printing project.

i wold really like to have your guidance and instructions about Sankirtana, because, even if i would like to keep on book distribution my whole life with your blessings, i know this body is not lasting at all, so i want to learn all kinds of sankirtana we can do so we can keep serving Srila Prabhuada. Also theres some subjects about Srimad Bhagavatam i would like to ask you maybe you can give me some cuotations that i can study, if you like.

Maharaja, im so sorry that i cannot write with more details, but right now we took 4 days for traveling sankirtana and we are in guanajuato right now, i took a few minuts, but i have to keep on the service. i ask for your blessings so all the peopple here can have the greatest chance in the life, the chance to go back to home, back to Godhead. (BTW. we broke ekadasi, the whole group forgot that today was ekadasi, we are so sorry, tomorrow we will fast grains on dvadasi, is there anything else we can do?)

Aravinda Prabhu once told us, the precious time of the spiritual master is paid trought a precious coin: the submissive surrender to his instructions, so remembering that, i just want to ask you help me to get the attraction to surrender fully so i can pay your un-valuable time and mercy.

Your still-trying aspiring servant

Bh. Christian. 

               HpS - ASA -  Jaya, Srila Prabhupada.  Thank you so, so much for your history. If we eat grains on Ekadasi we should also honor  grain Prasadam on Dvadasi and then fast on Trayodasi, the day after.  It is not good to miss Ekadasi!                 Different kinds of Sankirtana, our personal Sankirtan, will develop with time and also with asociacion. Look for people with whom you can asociate in diferent kinds of Sankirtana.   Prabhupda also encouraged restaurants that had book distribution arrangement.  Asociacion, Sankirtan-gurus, partners.

Our respects to Aravind and everyone.  We will be back in North America on June 1st.  Thank you so much for your association.               For studying SB we have an entire three year course, but I think what you are doing with Aravinda Das probably super!

Todas las glorias a usted GuruMaharaja

Por favor acepte mis humildes y repetuosas reverencias 

Hay días en los que cantamos un poco más de 16 rondas lo que aun nos sigue costando es la concentración, cuando nos damos cuenta solo estamos cantando en automatico que podemos hacer para no caer en la mente?

             ASA -   TlgaSP.   Pfanrh.  Podemo simplamente esforzar mejorar.  Try to control the mind, intenta controlar la mente como en cualquire esfuerza, pero el processo, mangala arati, SB, servir ISKCON de Srila Prabhupada es super purificacion para desarrollla un atraccion espontaneo para Japa etc.

los 4 principios van bien, seguimos leyendo la Bhagavad- Gita. 

Hace algunas semanas fui a un taller sobre equidad de genero y la ponente explicó que vivimos en una sociedad en donde no hay equidad, donde la mujer queda en segundo termino, yo le dije que la naturaleza de la mujer era servir a los demás que tenia un instinto materno, la ponente me dijo que no existe tal institnto materno que todo es impuesto por la sociedad en que vivimos. Maharaja yo se que el mundo material esta muy degradado,  usted me podria explicar la función verdadera de la mujer en la sociedad y principalmente en conciencia de krishna?

    ASA -  Oink!   Oink!   Whoop!    Whoop!    TlgaSP.  Super oir su Japa en Japa Joe por la manana.  Tiene mucho trabajo essential realizar en esta vida no desviajes!

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias;TLGASP.

Gracias por contestar mi carta Maharaj;    Anka es el nombre que me puso mi padre al nacer; ( He born in Croatia), se el significado de Ankita(como me llaman algunos), significa la que lleva marcada los signos auspiciosos, segun he visto en el BG; quisiera saber Maharaj que significa Anka por favor. Por aqui en el PA, seguimos  con el Sadhana  y teniendo nuevos visitantes para los retiros espirituales , intentando servir a Guru y al Señor Krishna. Anka dasi

        HpS - ASA -   AGTSP...   Gracias...     "She who is marked with auspicious signs?"  Nuestra Espanol falta bastante.      Si eso es, Ella tiene tiene rasgos auspicioso, podemos interpretar como Radhika Devi!               Cuales son los fuentes de los contactos para los retiros espirituales?  Tiene nuevo pero?          Como estan los devotos??

Hare Krishna Maharaj

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

              HpS - ASA -   AGTSP!   We don't have lotus feet.   Pineapple feet.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Hope your health is doing good and you're able to get some rest.

              ASA -  Ha!    Ha!        We are fight with a FEVER and exhausted, but pretty happy with the results.

Maharaj, you may not remember but am one of the many recipients of your mercy from Boise.  I have to take my final test for Bhakti sastri next Sunday. I'm far from doing the application of the study. Its only due to the mercy of Srinivasa Pr(Boise) that I was even able to study and continue with my schedule. Ofcourse, his strength comes from you.  Thank you so much for everything Maharaj. we follow you through your lectures, notes and hearing from your disciples. Our sadhana is holding on, still long way to do 16 good rounds.

From the study preparations, there was one question - Are Vraja bhaktas superior to Prema bhaktas or is it the other way round.

                 ASA - Prema bhakti begins at Maha-visnu loka to Vaikuntha to Ayodha to Mathura to Vrndvana and then is more intense in Gopas, Gopis...   So Vraja bhakti is the highest form of Prema bhakti.

I check your itinerary to see if you would be even passing via Chicago. We really pray that you may someday come to see Sri Kishore Kishori. Praying to become a nice sadhaka and serve the servants of Srila Prabhupada. Kindly shower your mercy that we may continue our service to please Guru and Krsna.

your aspiring servant

priya carana Dasi

                  HpS - ASA ----  I think that now we remember you more.      We are barely able to travel at all, now but by the mercy of Krsna we cross over mountains, fly in the sky...   If Kisor Kisori want, we can go to Chicago.
