Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj, reciba mis humildes reverencias, estamos aquí en Perú - Huancayo - haciendo Sankirtan con la compañia de Prabhu Advaita, Madre Madhavi, madre Nadiya y yo, estaremos por aquí por dos semanas y despues de regreso a Lima para el Ratha Yatra.

Despues del Ratha Yatra iremos de Sankirtan por Arequipa, Puno, Juliaca y Cuzco para hacer la Marathon de Srila Prabhupada.  

Tenemos un proyecto con Prabhu Amala Karuna, queremos abrir un snack vegetariano en Cuzco, la idea es poder hacer programas de Predica:  Harinan, distribución de prasadhan, distribución de libros, Ratha Yatras, probablemente abrir otro centro de predica en Cuzco. El poner un snack vegetariano es para ayudar económicamente a hacer estos programas,  en nuestras horas libres haremos Sankirtan de libros, bueno ¿que le parece la idea?

Por otro lado nuestro sadhana esta muy bien, levantandonos a las 3 am, cantando 25 rondas de yapa, siguiendo los 4 principios regulativos, leyendo el Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila, capitulo 1 "Los pasatiempos medios y finales del Señor  Sri Caitanya Maha Prabhu".

Bueno Guru Maharaj veremos que plan nos hace Krsna, lo que si tenemos seguro es seguir en la misión de Sankirtan de Srila Prabhupada. ¿Como esta usted? esperamos poder verlo en diciembre.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj, reverencias y un abrazo!!!<img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/38.gif" title="" />

           HpS - ASA - Jaya!   TlgaSP.   pfanrh.  Muy bien sus noticias. Pienso si va a abiri un centro en Cuzco tiene que hacer todo con bien co-ordinacion con Raghuvaram Das, Presidente alla, no? Claro, a veces hay conflictos de personalidad, estillo de administracion entre devotos pero podemos adjustar estas cosas de plataforma Vaisnava.
Esta bien?

Muy bien su Sankirtan!
En los DTC estamos incluyendo noticias de nostros. Como yo entiendo Patraka Das es traduciendo todos ellos, pero si, no puede utilizar "translate.google.com" para hacer lo! Basicamente estamos trantand ayudar Srila Prabhupada, ayudar Senor Caitanya, tomando apoyo de ejemplo de Vds! Somos en nuestra base, Nashville, Tennessee USA hasta 25 Deciembre. Entonces vamos a Peru, Argentina, Chile, Peru durante Enero. Detalles siempre www.jayarama.us/kd/cal.txt.

Vamos a comprar un caja de Isopanisad para el marathon y Krsna the Resovoir of Pleasure Eso es un capitulo muy bueno en CC!

 Mas noticias como pasan!

Hare Krsna Gurudev!

Please accept my humble obeisances.  All glories to Srila Prabhupada.  All glories to your lotus feet.

        HpS - ASA --  Long way from lotus. AGTSP. We are hoping for apple-blossom feet.

I cannot thank you enough for all of your merciful association the past two weeks.  I had many questions on my mind that caused much uncertainty in my life and some struggle, but you answered all of them, and I am satisfied.

   HpS - ASA - See "Image One" below.

You helped put a lot into perspective, which helps to continue in my service with better understanding.

I will remember these (almost) 2 weeks for the rest of my life, but I hope to have the chance to serve you that closely, or even more, again and again.

I brought some books with me to the airport on the way out as you instructed, and distributed them.  I had a nice conversation about Krsna consciousness with the man who sat next to me on the plane, and he took a Sri Isopanisad and gave a donation.  Also distributed a Coming Back, and PoY/BBaD to two others at the Denver airport.  Sending the donation back to Houston shortly.

I hope Bhaktin Govinda's initiation went well!  Hoping to get the recording of the initiation lecture from her or Mother Yasoda.

Your association is purifying, and I feel renewed confidence and enthusiasm to execute devotional service, and also gained some mental clarity as well.

Ever thankful for your mercy,
Hoping to become your servant,
Bhakta David II

HpS - ASA -- Well, the same to you and more of it!!!   Initiation was great. Actually every day becomes greater and greater!  You life is complicated. But also others. I would say that it is very normal for people to be at one level in the formal process and another level in their practical realization. Did Van Got become great artist because of what he learned in art school?

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias sean para Srila Prabhupada!

Guru Maharaja, de acuerdo a lo solicitado "noticias del templo"; hace un mes aproximadamente hubo un cambio en la administración, donde Prabhu Om Kesavaya ya no es parte de la Junta Directiva, sino que ahora algunos devotos Grihasthas estan ejecutando los servicios que Prabhu Om Kesavaya  realizaba. Los programas del templo continúan de manera regular, y la construcción del nuevo templo también. Se realizó Snana Yatra y pronto Ratha Yatra.

           HpS - ASA - TlagaSP!!!!!!  Pfanrh......   Muy bien leer sus noticias. Que es el "nuevo templo". Otro sitio? Misma sitio? Expansion, renovacion del lo que existe?

Éste lunes llega al Yatra SS Bhakti Sundar Goswami, guru diksa de my husband. Nos acompaña hasta el 4 de noviembre, en Ratha Yatra y Kirtan Fest. También tendremos nuestra ceremonia Vivaha Karma el jueves 31 de octubre, donde Maharaja estará presente. Nos hubiese gustado que Usted también estuviera presente, pero, no tendremos esa misericordia <img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/38.gif" title="" />

             Congratulations por su Boda (una torta vegitariano apegado abajo)!!!

La adoración a Radha Krsna aún NO comienza. Estamos atentos a Sus indicaciones de standar de adoración para Radha Krsna, por eso estamos reuniendo lo necesario. Maharaja Bhakti Sundar Goswami nos dió el nombre para ellas: Sri Radha Gopinath.

4 principios, 16 rondas, Gayatri (problema para cumplir con el horario). Continúo con servicios en el templo (gestión cursos y adoración, 1 o 2 veces al mes).

Sukadeva tiene 9 meses y escucha Ohe Vaisnava Thakura por la mañana y Krsna Book por la tarde. 

                ASA - Una regalito apegado para ella tambien!!!  Super! Claro no es persona ordinario.

Espero que Su salud esté bien, y que podamos verlo y escucharlo en enero del 2014.

Muchas gracias por Su eterna inspiración.

Priya Sakhi Devi Dasi y familia.

hare krsna maharaj, pamho, agtsp
jaya gaur bhakt vrinda,

               HpS - ASA - Jaya AGTSP.   Paoho  we were writing this letter and then Bh. David came in to say good-bye and it got lost???   David is very nice devotee who visited from Denver. Now is 5.53PM, Thursday, 31 November, he is leaving for Denver. We will answer like one or two more letters here then bath, Japa, Yahoo mail and go for initiation in Temple.

... little update on question asked by u in node 3508
Our son's would be 2 yr on kartik poornima, his Legal Name is Parikhshith Pradhan.

               HpS - So, 17th November is anniversary of Maharaja Pariksit.

My guide has changed, there is lot of progress, but still not yet to give us thesis.

              HpS - Very nice!
india is changing, lots of materialism keeping in, it seems india is 25-30 yrs behind USA. so u can say India is USA of 1985.

               HpS - We remember that at that time there was a lot of impersonalism. Everyone was becoming absorbed into electronic toys. Palm-pilots, etc. Their sense gratification and relations on sense gratification all had this impersonal, electronic nature.

regarding see you in february, we were thinking to come to Mayapura or Vrindavan or lucknow, mostly we would try to bring espousa y hijo also.
will it be possible for u to give date by date travel plan
but can not commit as of now
seems ur india trip is quite short in duration, and may be lots of your disciples may accompany you. so in that we would prefer to come alone, lets us see what  Nrsng Dev,TB,BW plans.
              HpS - Let us stay in touch with details. Even today we had request to stay one more day in Mayapura for Ministry of Education meeting, so we might skip Lucknow and go directly to Delhi/Vrndavana. We really want to see you all then.

We are communicating with female disciple of Srila Prabhupada, who gives classes in e-sanga, on regular basis,  she has accepted us as Siksha Disciple. We are getting lot of help from her, it is very personalize.

     HpS - M. Urmilla Devi Dasi, no?  She is here with us all for the last week on this educational development in Houston. Like six hours a day of meetings.

You both are our eyes to help to move on path chalked by Srila Prabhupada.

I think we would become formal aspirant by 1 feb 2014.  Jaya!

we wanted to ask you things about preaching.
i. what is motto of our preaching? is to convert people to Hare Krsna faith ?..we are asking this because we are meeting people who already have some spiritual back ground. some body is islamic, some body follows SB but not it line of Mahaprabhu etc etc

    HpS - ONe answer is from the INtro to the NOI. We are learning how to help Lord Caitanya spread the science of Krsna consciousness. So, somebody may know physics from Japan and somebody else from Germany, but if they are sincere then they are all exchanging information. If someone is a sincere Christian he will naturally have lots of interest in ISKCON, Srila Prabhupada's SB, and we in his knowledge.
Those who just take religion from materialistic, nationalistic tradition, we try to help them by quoting from Acharya and Sastra if they want to here this.
They don't have to follow our Parampara.

ii. we give books to people, they hear conception from SB like epistemo from ISO, What is know from SB 1.1.1, 3 aspects fo reality SB 1.2.11, 24 elements etc etc... what is the next step ?and where do we stop.

          HpS - We can give LOB, NOI, BIO of Srila Prabhupada, BIO of Lord Caitanya from INtro to SB. We can give book, Teacings of Lord Caitanya (four dialogs (good for scholars)), then start Bhakti-sastri studies... never have to stop.

iii. we some how are not able to convince people of chanting as yuga dharma, we can convince of ideal sociology, VAD, etc but not chanting.

         HpS - I guess they have to experience it from Prabhupada.

we are reading mathews in bible with espousa, chaptr 6 and 5 are very heavy and helpful to us.

    HpS - Jaya!  Hallelujah!

"

....  I hope we get some more time to read this!

,harsh
      HpS - SUch nice news!!   We hope that you can get in touch with Goloka education, Ramagiridhari and Prana Das when they return to Mumbai. They are in New Mumbai. We have LOTS of work to do.

Can you contact Girivaradhari Das and then find our from Dr. Bandyopadhyay which are the universitys that we should contact first. We need a list of about 40 to start with. Then we can send a promotional flyer to them for the Felicitations volume. Send the news of this to this Blog!  Use Category A for the category.  Thank you so much!!
