todas las glorias a srila prabhupada!

Espero ud se encuentre bien y feliz en conciencia de Krsna!

          ASA - Ooof!   Hecho...   Mundo material es allergia, conflictos social....  pero recordando que hqy Gopal y Sus amigos, estamos bien!!

Nosotros nos encontramos en Cordoba capital ahora, estamos alojados en casa de un devoto, una familia grjastas amigos de Franco. Krsnagopal cumplio 10 meses el 15 de marzo. EStoy haciendo publicidad con las clases de danza. Ahora tengo 4 alumnas tres inicial, y 1 avanzada que era mi alumna del 2011 y acepto ir al centro de predica. Le cuento que hace poco volvi a soñar con su misericordiosa persona, Usted me llamaba para conversar conmigo, espero poder hacerlo personalmente.Extraño muchisimo a los devotos, las deidades, los programas del templo, aqui sollo hay 2 veces al mes programa en el centro de predica pero no hay kirtan, solo bhajans clase y prasadam, que tambien esta bueno porque la conciencia de krsna esta avanzando en todos lados.estoy participando en los programas de aqui que hay en casas. Siempre recordamos k no importa tanto dnde estemos sino con quien, con quien...Me gustaria saber como rerlacionarme con personas que no tieen fe en el proceso, no canta  rondas, no estan iniciados)van con los devotos a sus programas pero tambien los critican, me parece dificil relacionarme pero krsnita me pone en una situacion en la cual debo relacionarme todos los dias, ¿cual es la mejor manera de relacionarnos, sabiendo que al parecer tienen un corazon generoso?

         ASA -  Upadesamrta.    Predica a ellos si acceptan lo que dice Prabhupada, SB, pero, no....  Buenos Dias, Prabhu!!

hay mucho apego a la especulacion y a comer sano, krsnita me esta sacando ese apego de a poco.  se que podria ayudar pero tambien se que me debo cuidar. preferi no predicar si carecen de fe, como la 9na ofensa, y asi no escucho ofensas.

estoy siguiendo el programa de la mañana completo menos lectura del S.B., pero leo N.I  y ahora estoy leyendo el venu gita, que inspira mucho para entender el humor y crear mas danzas. estamos viendo siempre videos de srila prabhupada, de  clases suyas Gurudev, gracias a pàtrak. ahora me doy mas cuenta de lo corto k es el tiempo despues del incendio y quiero dedicarme a i servicio de danza, mi familia y servirlo a usted y a krsna. lo que me pone contenta  es que a pesar k etraño mucho las deidades, el servicio direto, los programas, los kirtans, gharnam, los devotos, etc, es que krsnita tiene un plan comingo aqui al parecer y si asio voya complacerlo a mi señor eso me ayuda a mantenerme firme. veo que este mundo realmente no me gusta muchop y me allienta a querer salir de el.quiero realmante volver con krsnita a goloka, y necsito limpiar mi corazon y krsna es tan misericordioso k me esa ayudando.

Muchas gracias por ayudarme  dandome asociacion k me ayude en mi avanze espirituial como p nicasio que me ayudo, gracias Gurudev.

Para servirlo Gurudev, su discipula que quiere limpiar por completo su corazon: radha japa prati jalpa dd.

                 ASA - Oink!   Oink!                   Espera    cosas    milagroso siempre.  Eso es Krsna!!!!                     Entonces esperamos noticias de los milagros que pasan a Vds.  devotos!!

 AGTSP   paoho.   We can't read it.   Too small!!!!!

Hare Krisna, Maharaja. Accept my humble obeisances, dandavats. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Thank you so much for your last reply to my lastest posts and your upadesa.

I'm starting to do changes to follow your tips as get up earlier before sunrise.

It's harder being to get up earlier in the morning. But bit by bit i'm getting up earlier ( 1 hour and half before sunrise).

My rounds of Japa are going up to 20-24.

The last week i was in Malta for 4 days with Yadunandana Swami, Jara Maya Hari Das, and my wife to do Sankirtan. There's living a devotte, Lakshmi. She has a yoga group. Yadunandana Swami gave a conference in the Philosophy's departament of de Malta University. We distributed 132 Sirla Prabhupada's books, we sang the Holy Names, etc ... It was a wonderful experience.

I don't take you more time. Thank you for your attention.

Your servan Nityasevaka.

       AGTSP.  HpS - ASA  -  Thank you for the news!   Yes, up early and life is easy!!

Hare Krsna!

Por favor acepte mis mas humildes y respetuosas reverencias.

Todas las glorias sean a Srila Prabhupada.

Estimado Hanumat Presaka Swami Maharaja,

Le agradezco su gran misericordia sin causa al responder mi carta. Seguiré adelante únicamente gracias a sus bendiciones Maharaja.

Su insignificante aspirante a sirviente,

HpS - ASA - Jaya!    TlgaSP.  Pfanrh.  Mas cantamos, mas estamos en contacto con realidad profundamente!

HpS - Jaya AGTSP.   paoho.  I think we already answered one letter almost the same, no, but again it is very nice to hear from you.  You can see from our Calendar www.jayarama.us/kd/cal.txt what our rought schedule is. We are based in Tennessee so maybe we can meet there. Where is Gajahanta Ji living, your Mother??

Wow, it has definitely been too long that I've missed your association!  This is Nela Madhava (the name Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara gave me)  aka Neal Shonyo (the name my parents gave me).  Krishna guided me to your youtube videos and I've been eager to get in touch.  I am delighted to see the amazing work you are doing and would like to lend myself to your service in any way possible.  Is there any time you will be in the US possibly on the east coast?  I would really like to reconnect asap!  Perhaps you could bring the Bhati seminar to my school before I graduate next year.  I am currently attending University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida.  My studies are in Accounting but I have also taken classes in philosophy of religion and religious studies (there is a very obvious lack of eastern tradition represented...maybe purposely?).  At any rate, I wanted to relay that I am available to assist in your service and am fairly capable in video production and graphic design.  I have done some projects for school and also commercially but its been pretty mundane content.  My real enthusiasm is to produce more spiritually inclined content in Krishna's service. 

I'm also working on an organization called Philosophers of Today, Philanthropists of Tomorrow.  Its objective is to find practical philosophical answers to societal problems as well as philanthropically based financial means to carry out such strategies.  Sources tell me these answers can be found in the books of Srila Prabhupada and other Vaishnavas.  I also was interested in putting together an interreligious conference  at my school and inviting representatives of the various faiths to speak on the topic of conflict resolution and cultivation of an empathic society.  Seeing the selfless work of pure Vaishnavas such as yourself and Srila Sripad has inspired me to follow in that path.  My only relief in this constant struggle with material life is the spiritual principles instilled in me by pure devotees such as yourself. 

I also wanted to sincerely thank you for blessing our home in California with your presence and performing the fire yugya before my birth.  I only recently learned of this from my father.  It may be more than a coincidence that I took a great liking toward the Ramayana and Hanuman at a very young age and even today have two Hanuman deities in my home. 

Looking forward serving you,

Nela Madhava

Haribol!!
Please accept my humble obeisances!!
All glories to srila Prabhupada,
Here we are in mar del plata almost going to bed, rest for another day, !!
Today an argentinian pope was elected, Francesco I because of Saint Francis of Asis.
A very humble man. His nephew was my schoolmate in medschool.
16 rounds every day, brahama muhurta 50% of time, 3 ½ principles.
Reconciliated with wife, we understood we came here to preach and make austerities, not to enjoy, we have strong faith in the power of the holly names and sadhu sanga.
We feel tranquil we accept our maya, attachments, difficulties and without shame offer that to Krisna and beg for purification. Arcanam is our next focus.
Started a bhakti vriksa group at SAMA our health center, many blessings from SP and mahaprabhu, 2 people already started to chant japa everyday. My wife attending the program also and chanting japa every day 2 o 3 rounds.
Once you said in a letter that we must connect with Srila Prabhupada`s lotus feet somehow or other. So there is a big dilemma going on in my heart.
Wether to wait until I raise to the standard you ask for diksa initiation or take diksa from another ISKCON GURU who ask for a lower standard and relate with you as a Siksa Guru.
From the situation I am right now I feel your standard for diksa initiation too far away, I feel like you when you were laughing about Raghunath Das Goswami saying that vaidhi bhakti was cheating.
HH Jayapataka swami said in a lecture at Buenos aires mandir that one can go back to godhead without having taken diksa if one was sincere and was chanting the prescribed number of rounds.
Srila Prabhupada waited for eleven years to take diksa initiation from Bhaktisidhanta Saraswati Thakur.
Should I wait and be patient or should I hook as soon as possible to the parampara?
Please convey my humble respects and warm greetings to Prof. Bandyopadhyay and devotees in Manipur.
Aspiring to become your servant.
Bhakta Nicasio.

                 HpS - Jaya.   So nice to hear from you.  Sorry for the delay.  You know why.   As far as we hear from Prabhupada again and again and again to be his disicples. to take diksa from him we have to follow the four principles strictly and chant 16 enthusiastic rounds.  we can take classes in the university for no credit but to get the diploma we must be registered students.  yes, there may be very unusual circumstances but usually if we are sincere then Krsna will arrange all we need to follow all strictly.

Illicit sex conditions us to suffer in the future. A man who engages a women in illicit sex is a torturer of women.  Ooof!         But we WILL  surpass all this.    We are not disicple of  Srila Prabhupada unless we chant 16 rounds and follow the four principles in heaven or hell.   This is what we have heard from him.

                 We have a connection.  We are patha pradarshika guru for you.   You can take many such siksa gurus and eventually take diksa from someone, and have him and many others as siksa gurus for more advancement later.

This is what we know.       Be sincere and go ahead!  Don't accept unclear knowledge!
