om ajñana-timirandhasya jñanañjana-salakaya caksur unmilitam yena tasmai sri-gurave namah

Querido Guru Maharaja:

Hoy celebramos el evento más auspicioso, el día especial de su aparición trascendental en este mundo. El propósito de su advenimiento es despertarnos de la ignorancia a las almas dormidas en la ilusión, para revivir nuestra relación eterna con Krsna. Así ud. está cumpliendo su servicio a su maestro espiritual Srila Prabhupada y complaciendo a Krsna.

Las Escrituras Védicas declaran acerca de la importancia y el deber de todo ser humano de rendirse a un maestro espiritual genuino perteneciente a la sucesión discipular. Ud. reúne todas las características y cualificaciones de un maestro espiritual y las sobrepasa con creces.

Es admirable su lealtad incondicional a su maestro espiritual Srila Prabhupada, sirviendo con amor dentro de la institución que él fundó, ISKCON, en cooperación con sus hermanos espirituales.

Su servicio a la prédica y el sankirtana de Srila Prabhupada van siempre en aumento y con entusiasmo.

Ud. está impulsando de tantas maneras que este conocimiento y educación de conciencia de Krsna se difunda y amplifique en diferentes niveles y medios.

Su apego determinado y entusiasta al sadhana es un ejemplo vivo para todos los devotos dondequiera que ud. está presente, en un templo, en una casa, en pleno viaje, en cualquier lugar y bajo toda circunstancia ud. mantiene sus prácticas diarias.

Su vasto conocimiento y dominio eficaz de las escrituras reveladas es sencillamente impresionante, no solo para devotos sino para cualquier persona, académico, erudito o lego.

Todas sus cualidades y virtudes son realzadas aun más por su extraordinaria humildad. Ud. personifica la humildad que Srila Prabhupada enseñó y así nos inspira también a volvernos sinceros y humildes. Las palabras y el tiempo no alcanzan para hablar totalmente de su personalidad. Guru Maharaja, ud. es simplemente maravilloso.

Quiero darle las gracias, cientos y cientos de veces, por el regalo incomparable e inmerecido de su santa asociación, que es capaz de lograr que hasta alguien como yo pueda aspirar a hacer algún servicio y poder dirigir estas palabras. Muchas gracias por la merced del refugio a la sombra de sus pies de loto, en verdad sus loto son lo único que nos puede salvar de las garras de la ilusión. Sujetos firmemente a sus divinos pies de loto estamos conectados directamente con Srila Prabhupada, con Sri Caitanya y con Sri Sri Radha-Krsna. Muchas gracias por todos sus esfuerzos por darnos conocimiento, impartirnos instrucciones y ocuparnos en servicio devocional. Cientos y miles de gracias.

Por favor perdone mis ofensas, soy muy indigno y estoy luchando por avanzar. Por favor perdone mis faltas y errores.

Todas las glorias a Srila Hanumatpresaka Svami Maharaja.

Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Jaya Sri Vyasa-Puja!

Su sirviente eterno, Jiva-Sakti dasa.

HpS - ASA -   AGTSP.   Paoho.   We are facing the same problems and experiencing the same progress. What to do?  Chant Hare Krsna as much as possible. Abandon pleasing the material body and seek to please the Soul of our soul.   The results depend on Krsna.    I do not know what will happen to our Japa Forum when we travel for four months.  Let us hear Monkey's opinion in his DTC this day, 31/Thursday.

All glories to Sri Sri Gouranga NITYANANDA
All glories to Srila Prabhupada
All glories to H.H Sri Hanumatpresaka Swami

Please accept my most humble obeisance

Hare Krsna Gurudeva, My name is Ignacio González and I`m from Viña del Mar. I hope that your body isn`t giving you too much problems.

           HpS - Jaya!   AgtSP... !     Yes...  we remember you and your cat, no!?   Also your nice family.   Your too intelligent for your own good!    Ha!     Ha!       Ha!              It is more of a challenge in some ways to become Krsna conscious for iintelligent people because they have to engage their BIG intellects in Krsna consciosness and that can be harder than engaging wealth or physical ability!

I`m writing to wish you a happy birthday and Vyasa puja Guru maharaja!!! Also I want to thank you very much for you association and everything that you give me/us. My association it`s no good, I`m proud, materialistic and I have no good quality. If you find something good in me it will be only a reflection of your many beautiful qualities.

Without you and the parampara I will be at the bottom of this awful ocean and Krsna will be unachievable, but you are my hero because you can give me Krsna-prema. Therefore I own you my life and I will always try to serve you in the best way, whatever the cost may be.

16 rounds per day (working in getting better rounds)
4 principles for almost 2 months (determined to have a diksa relation with you)

          HpS - Param drstva nivartate.   Getting a higher taste one gives up the lower taste.  Are you finding new expressions of love and intoxication for your family in KC activities?    Also having six kids is within the 4 principles!!!  Krsna will send all the money you need!!

My administrative authority I guess it is Om kesavaya (but i don´t know…is complicated here in Valparaiso... Working on ISKCON law to figured out)

Aspiring to serve you

Ignacio.

           ASA -  Awk!  Copy of your report to the Yahoo address?  If not then it may be lost.   to our ASA administration.  Oh well,  God notices everything!!!    You know Vanamali devi dasi's father.  He has big house he inherited.  Ask him about it, making nice pleasure house on the beach for Radha-Krsna!

¡Mis respetuosas reverencias a Srila Prabhupada¡¡¡

Mis respetuosas reverencias a usted maharaja¡¡¡

Maharaja feliz viasapuya; le prepare un pastel de queso y se lo ofreci cantando el pranama con su nombre, me lo recomendo prabhu Mahajana que vino a casa para hacer sankirtan junto con Prabhu Advaita.

Mi sadhana esta mejorando y estos ultimos dias cantando mas de diez rondas, siguiendo 4 principios por unos dias o interdiario, leyendo libros de Srila Prabhupada, tomando prasadam y cantando artik.

Maharaja aqui tengo unas preguntas:

¿cuando Krishna dice que su devoto es el que sirve a su devoto significa que debo servir a los tres tipos de devotos: kanista, madhyama y uttama.

              HpS - ASA ---  TlgaSP!!!    Nectar de la Instruccion, Texto Cinco!!!!

¿ cuando siguo las instrucciopnes de mi maestro espiritual lo estoy sirviendo?

           HpS -  Claro que si!   Eso es servicio, haz lo que el Maestro dice!  Jaya Sri Krishna!

Hare Krishna , todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada y a usted Guru maharaj

Queria contarle que estoy mejor,y que siento que Krishna es muy bueno,y estoy muy agradecida por su misericordia , ojala lo pueda ver cada vez que venga.

Bueno gurudev estoy tratando de avanzar, le contare novedades ;tome las deciciones gurudev y siento que debo hacerme un poco mas fuerte e instruirme .

Bueno gurudev deseo servirlo y desarrollar mas amor por usted por favor ayudeme a cantar y a levantarme temprano y leer.le  contare mas novedades.tambien tratare de asistir a japa joe.

que ande bien...SYAMASUNDARA!!! jaya Srila Prabhupada

HpS - AGTSP    Quienes Vd? ?   El Syamasundara de Peru!???    Donde esta???

Hare Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO,AGTSP.
we know ur time is precious. But this confused soul trusts u the most esp in matters of ISK. So hence he is writing urgent on Topic>

what we are writing is the brief of  discussion we had over phone on 25 jan ,9pm boise time.
he asked/chastised us to change our prioritis to 1. chant 2. family 3. phd.... he said then comes Bhvai,BS, online lectures etc.

There was no mention of morning program and evening program.

frankly our Phd is in soup because whole family[espousa hijo] is sustaining on our stipend which last till july 2015 and we still dont know research problem , however we were trusting Krsna [as we mentioned earlier]  and keeping 1. chanting 2. four rules 3. mangal arti 4. book reading [BS and BHvai} studies.  5. PhD work   >> as we hear SB from realized sould to get its effect. hence we were hearing ur lectures online and in BHvai. 6. asssociating with local devotees and ISK temple darshan.

again I dont know how much details we should go in, is 1 year of chanting and 4 rules prasdam is ok for first intiation.. we can try to do morning program but it wont be 5/7.

we want to write more in details, but think we should restrain our mind from expressing.
trying to act to please the paramapara<

   HpS -  AGTSP   Unless we have nice morning program the 16 rounds won't be nice. Anantarupa and I talked about you. Very nice.   Morning program is simple.  It doesn't take anymore time. Just getting up early rather than staying up late.  So up 1-1/2 hours before sunrise.  To bed early.  Then arati can be simple. 2 minutes. then chant japa, and when there is light SB then breakfast and PhD work.
