maharaja, sadhana y preguntas

Mis repetuosas reverencias a Srila Prabhupada¡¡

Mis respetuosas reverencias a usted maharaja¡¡

Aqui en Tacna, me propuse 3 rondas fijas, aunque hago 6 rondas; continuo leendo krishna book, SB, BG, y otros libros; siguo cantando los aratik, pero no a su debida hora, cuando hago todo esto experimento paz en la noche.

Maharaja:

En el SB 1.17.18, Dharma le dice a Pariksit Maharaja '' es muy dificil determinar quien es el malechor.... ya que estamos confundidos con toda clase de filosofos teoricos'' ; entonces ¿en que opinion nos basamos nosotros los Hare Krishna?

             HpS - ASA -  TlgaSP!       No se, pero como yo entiendo, la contaminacion basica es que pensamos podemos entender: Por ciencia, por music, poesia....   No tenemos potencia de entender solo.  Somos moo   moo   chachos pequenos.    90% nuestra conocimiento es basado en ACCEPTAR bien la intelligencia nos envia!                  O, leer bien los libros de Prabhupada regulararmente!

¿porque dice en el krishna book que la mente de las gopis se ''perturba'' cuando oyen la flauta tracedendal de Krishna?

             HpS -  Huh!   Eso es obvio no?   Cuando yo miro helado mi mente pertuba!             Entonces las Gopis piensan de Krsna de una manera muy personal cuando oyen el flauta, piensan como realizar differentes servicios para Krsna, cosas que Lo encantan!

En el krishna book relata que las gopis tenian envidia de los ciervos, ¿existe envidia espiritual?

              HpS - Aparece que si, pero pienso que Ellas solamente anhelen tener esta facilidad que tiene las ciervas.  No quieren matar las ciervas, para eliminar esta competencia.

en el sentido de que dormimos ¿que es el sueño?

               HpS - ASA --  Sueno en la dia, sueno en la noche.  Tenemos ambos, no?   Todo la dia la mente es con cuentas, imagenes, como en la noche.  Pero en noche no hay competencia de imagenes de los sentidos, entonces podemos ser mas involucrados en las ideas, imagines, pensam., etc en la noche.   Despues de sueno (supti) pasamos a  (susupti)  descana profundo.  En esta etapa no hay suenos.

¿se puede cantar y alabar a Jesus y la virgen Maria?

             HpS -  ASA    -     One devotee asked Prabhupada, are the Christians going back to Godead?  P'pada answered, "Yes, if they follow Lord Jesus's instructions".

Devotee - How will they know His instructions?

P'pada - One Priest will tell them.       (I forget who told me this)

               SO,    we SEE  you IN chile Pronto!

Realizing how small we are

12 years, 2 months ago by BhaktaAdrian in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna,

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

Bhakta Adrian, Utah, always hanging in there! :)

               ASA - !!!!   !                  !  (!)

With Reb having left again, I find it strange to say that I have been moving forward nicely in spiritual life. (at least compared to how I have been in the past) I am still keeping the same regulated schedule. Work, Gym, Yoga. I am able to chant all my rounds to get my day started.

There have been some major changes in this small temple. Two senior devotees have moved away, leaving only us youth to run the place. I have to say, it has gone beautifully so far. Tracy, the oldest of us, has been named temple president. Two other young men have moved into the temple. We get very little senior association, but somehow we manage to stay inspired. I humbly gave my first "Saturday Feast" speach. I take no credit for whatever good came of it. I didn't prepare very well, but I prayed and prayed that Paramatma would just speak through me. It was successful, but not by my efforts.

I have been put in charge of taking care of the deities!! It is the best part of my day. I wake them, do an offering, then get ready for my day, chanting my japa on my way into town. Then they are the last thing I see as I put them to sleep after I get home. I am feeling so blessed!

I am starting to see this world and myself through different eyes. I truly feel like Radha has bestowed some greatly undeserved mercy upon me. I am also still keeping a weekly update with Sri Hari Prabhu, trying to take my spiritual life more seriously and continue to move forward.

I just want to cry out to the Lord and his devotees for being so kind to me. I feel so fallen, but I am always so blessed by their mercy, and your mercy as well.

RADHE RADHE RADHE RADHE SYAAAMM!!!!!!! :D

Your lowly aspiring Bhakta,

Adrian

            HpS - Jaya!   AgtSP.       So nice to hear from you and news from Utah for all of us.      SO, SO, nice.     Yes, it is better to have a small, but regular Sadhana than being the Bhakti Yo-Yo.     UP_down-UP_down.        Wait for Rebecca.       She may be suffering from temporary insanity, or better yet resetting her life to relating to you as a devotee friend rather than trying to advance to Ghrastha ashrama two years too soon.   O.K.    You are on the path to first iniation!!!

...these  last days i have problem to finish my round i m traying to get all my rounds done, finishing the round that i debts.

to much service filming and not geting up to mangalarti this days very tired and sick but now i m better, my brother-ass conditions me, i m a fool. i like very much Mangalarati specialy here with Radha Madhava and SP samadhi.

 also the 12 of october at 5 pm Krsna Kisora a SP disciple left his body here in Mayapur we was helping him with his problems coused by the desease. he was cancer in the liver and bones. we are tolking a lote he was very inteligent and lovely. in just a few month we develop a nice conection and friendship. he was a great preacher and help a lot in the development of the preaching and devotees in all latin america ( argentina, chile, peru brasil mexico panama, etc).

we was helping in the funeral ceremony preparing his body for the cremation. he s wife is very advance she have a 1 year old boy and another of ten (very advance child), he told me when we were cleaning the body that was like the deparure of a guru.

     HpS - ASA -- Why, "like"!?    Seems for sure departure of a Guru...

... he left his body peacefully and conscious looking picture of SP, nrsimhadeva, Gaura and Madhava, and drinking Caranambrta when the devottes chant hare Krsna and he was detach to fight . when the people come with an oxigen tube to help him in his breathing and the tube does t work,( indian style NO PROBLEM BEST QUALITY). he was counscious that the tube dident work and detache at that very last moment. he was very fortunate. a few day before he told me that he was curios to expiernce this, this trip. a mounths ago we give to him a recorder because he want before leave write a books, one about myth and symbols in the life and other about forgiveness, so we are helping to do that. please give us your bleesing to fullfill the desire of this vaisnava.

         HpS -  The magic will be done by Krsna when we become pure devotees of Krsna.  So keep your priorities:  16 enthusiastic rounds, 4 priciples strictly, full morning program and then . . .   you can adjust all these services with special shakti from Krsna.  Learn to engage others in helping you...

we want star a printing  in argentina when we return.

how the vaisnavas live and died is unique in this world, thank srila prabhupada for rescuing us for the dark world. jay guru deva!!!

i attach a very special and not so know photo of BVT leaving his body. i rescue this treasure from the room of Lalita Prasadam (one of his sons) in the birth place of BVT. the person with BVT maybe is one of his sons or one disciple, the devotees there doesnt know well.

traying to be your servant Ambarisa M Das

                     HpS - ASA   ----  Now 4.51PM here in Arrequipa.   Also, little problems of six kinds with this body, but if we can walk and chant, chant and dance then we can occupy everything in Krsna's service.        Our thanks to P'nrsmha for this blog, for Caitanya in the Ministry, for M. SuKanya Sita DD for Sanskrita teaching...

All glories to Sri Sri Goura Nitay, Srila Prabhupada and You.

Dear Guru Maharaja, Please accept my humble obeisances, since I read your answer to my last letter, everything has improved in the restaurant things are going much better, Om Kesavaya is the receptionist for diners while I prepare and serve the Prasada. every day we are improving a bit, refining details and adding new preparations to make the restaurant a great thing. My mood also improved in service since now there isn't so much criticism or maybe because I'm not giving much importance.

    HpS - ASA --  Jaya!   Very nice.  When the first restaurant was opened Srila Prabhupada suggested to the western devotees to get lessons from nice Indians on cooking.  He also asked if there was nice promotional display of his books!

The service on Friday party is good, cooking with Candrabhanu and Gopal Bhadra, preparing pizzas for Rsipati, helping to Bhakta Claudio Silva with hamburgers, sold to the kitchen of the Godhead, the spiritual family always trying to serve, and together, is very rewarding!
 
Follow the regular channels and supported by the authorities of the temple is very important, we are raising the starndar the kitchen again, educating people who want to do service to do it the best way, on Friday October 12 I stayed in the temple and could participate in the program as long didn't, I felt good, the mercy of Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai is immeasurable!
 
Every day I try to improve my spiritual life a bit, not confused myself by anartas which always appear in the most difficult times, surrender to Krishna and let him move the strings and let me do a better service for you because I know that so will please Him.
 
Hoping to serve, Bhakta Alcaíno Pablo Santiago, Chile

           HpS - ASA  --  We feel inspired to advance by your association.  We should be in Chile in just like 24 days.  See you then...    See the restaurant then.  You have a plate for Sannyasis?    You and pizzas!!!    !
