Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna Oh Holy Sage!!
You have been delivering many fallen souls in all over the earth. Working day and night just to reach out to more and more people. You are compassionate on others, and strict on yourself. We may have joked with you according to our level. Please forgive us for our grave offences we have done against you.

        HpS - ASA -  AGTSP!!!       You see only the good qualities in people and magnify them. We have also been attached to reading Sherlock Holmes stories in the name of "World Classical Literature".

...we have troubled you a lot over blog, skype and in person. But we may not have capacity to have any other fruitful relation with you. We may be taking advantage of your tolerance , but that is not our intent, but sort of conditioning.

Oh travelling preacher. we write to you in great trouble we have in heart. Please forward this message to Supreme Lord. We live in this kaliyuga were things are detoriating we can feel that our bodliy and mental health is taking toll. we are in grhastjha asrama where we dont have support or reminders of execution of KC. Our mind is un-controlled intelligence is weak. Jaundiced by avidya we dont relish holy name.
 

We are becoming conscious that death is coming closer every second, ulitmately we have to die. We know we can only attain perfection be mercy of lord. Karma-jnana-dhyana-bhakti, 9 stages of bhakti.. all this science esp which tells us stages of perfection.. questions us can we attain them in this life time. what if we dont!!! we have not even begun!! mercy is dependent on our endeavor , we feel we lack that endeavor..

not able to process is concern. but before process comes association. We are so rascal that we are very bad at relations- very low on emotions, we can not maintain relationships. we can not hope you to micromanage... but we are saying all this  to express our momentary seriousness and saneness... hope super soul -- dadati buddhi yogam to us.

our only refuge is holy name, all we can do is chant as much as we can, chant internally or externally work or no work... but dont know how much is practical... we want to write more...but we rest...can you give us some prescription out of your compassion on rascal like us....
regards,
insignificant acquitance.

                  HpS - ASA --  AGTSP!!!!    BG 2.41 or so...  Nehabikramo naso sti....  on this path there is no loss or diminuition.   Even the Gopis feel that they are rascals who can't execute real Bhakti. Objectively you are in a difficult situation, but it could be worse. You could be in the West where animal slaughter and multiple "wives" is a common practice. You could have never come in contact with Srila Prabhupada nor his movement nor his other aspirants.  So, thing is to set some goal: eg. on Sunday stop and think, this week I will chant x-number of rounds every day.      Set a practical standard and then do it.  Also, associate like this in a regulated fashion.   Do you think it is not having an effect?           What is your Japa vrata?   For how long?    Tell the whole world!     Be a pioneer!

We are always grateful for your association and determination under such difficult circumstances.

All Glory to Srila Prabhupad

and all Glory to Sankirtan's movement by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

....please accept my humble obeisances unto your lotus feet...

                (ASA - Lodo)

.... clearly my life depends on the mercy of you,

              ASA  -  AGTSP     This could be a BIG problem unless you include Prabhuapda as your Guru also!   

....if you like it I'll must continue chanting the Holy names;
through the good auspices have kept chanting japa by the grace of the association of devotees, surely we are very far from understanding what this means, but I try to understand.
we are taking some services for Ratha Yatra, we will if we have the mercy of their Lordships, giving host and taking contact of guests, we would like to maintain the correct association, not only reading, but in daily life, taking instructions and have friends. I have not understood the message of the acaryas however the bhakty Vriksa Program seem to me very necessary. cultive is task entrusted to us by the devotees, so personally am not expert in anything, and I just can keep trying. Please dispence my ineptitude and lack of proper communication, I hope to improve, however I depend on your favor, please, I hope that you will guide me.

your simple servant Aniruddha Krishna Das

               HpS - ASA  ---   Rathayatra donde????      What is your favorite book?

      Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj, por favor acepte mis reverencias, todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada y Usted.

                   HpS -   !!!!!  Jaya!!!!!     Anandavardhana Das!!!             99.999% a Srila Prabhupada.

  Por acá estamos casi como siempre pero un poco mas feliz cada vez y eso ocurre por sus bendiciones.

Perdón por no escribir tan seguido, es que mi vida cambia poco, de la ultima vez que escribí lo mas importante es el HARINAM que organiza la madre Fernanda ( aspirante a dicipula suyo) cada 15 días es MARAVILLOSO, son 8 horas de Harinam y Sankirtan como con 20 devotos, gracias a Srila Prabhupada, cada vez llevo esas 2.000 galletitas Prasadam que parece me arrastran al mundo del SANKIRTAN, estamos distribuyendo ese pan integral cada vez en mas lugares ahora se llaman "MADHU", son como 3.000 cada mes, con un vendedor " no devoto" que sale a vender y así estoy todo el día en casa haciendo pan, leyendo los libros de Srila Prabhupada, cantando rondas y asociandome con la familia, estoy feliz de poder verlo a Usted ahora con su cuerpo burdo en chile, mis reverencias  una y mil veces a usted que es muy bueno con el mundo entero. La familia está bien con Narotam la Maha anandini y todo el resto....

                  HpS -   Nos vemos en 6-dias!!!!    Distribuir tan mucho Prasadam, como puede ser un "no devoto".  Ha!    Ha!      Ha!!   Adelantamos.  Nos vemos pronto!!!!!!

DEAR GURUDEVA,

PAMHO ,AGTSP, AGTHPS!!,

I HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER.

WE WERE TALKING, JAYANTA, POURNAMASI, BHADRA AND I ABOUT YOUR TRIP.

JAYANTA SAID, AND WE AGREE, THAT IF YOU WISH TO JUST TO COME TO MADRID AND SPEND YOUR TIME RESTING, OR WRITTING, WE WOULD  BE HAPPY.

BUT IF YOU LIKE WE CAN ORGANIZE SOME EVENTS, PURNAMASI GAVE ME THE SERVICE TO CONTACT "LA CASA DE ASIA" FOR A SIMPOSIUM, DO YOU ALLREADY KNOW THE DATES YOU WILL BE IN MADRID?.

         HpS - ASA -  We have suggested:
          May
          1-8  Mad(rid)  y Madre Tierra.
          8-15   NVM!!!
          15-22   Barcelona
          22-28   Radhadesa....

I BELIEVE JAYANTA WAS GOING TO CONTACT YADUNANDA SWAMI TO TRY AND DO SOMETHING AT THE UNIVERSITY( DE FILOSOFÍA Y LETRAS) AS WELL OR INSTEAD(AS YOU WISH).

              ASA -  We can do both if they are effective programs.  Light of the Bhagavata is such a good platform!    But watch the Blog and Kapi Dhvaja for other projects.   Looks like this year was Socrates but next year will be the Song of Songs by Solomon in the Bible and the Light of the Bhagavata!   O.K?

JAPA JOE IS FANTASTIC!!!, NOW THAT FINALLY SHARAD HELPED ME TO START, I WILL JOIN  MORE OFTEN, AND BHADRA TOO.

           HpS - ASA -  You translated the book!

BHADRA IS GIVING SUPPER BG CLASSES,HE IS STARTING TO DO  THEM WITH WONDERFUL POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS.

THE GURUKULA IS ALSO WORKING SOOO NICELLY, THANKS TO PURNAMASI´S AND EVA´S EFFORT.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR CAUSELESS MERCY.

ASPIRING TO BECOME YOUR SERVANT.<img alt="" height="18" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/40.gif" title="" width="18" />

SANANDA DD

               ASA - Are you and Bhadra going to contribute a few children to the Gurukula or live a merry Vanaprastha life?  ?   ?       Have a plan for your life/Sankirtana?   Go to India?   Bhadra go to school and get a PhD in Education?
           Please let us know of any ideas for programs in Spain.  Can do a co-ordinated event between all three centers!     We have contact with Pedro Riba   www.puntoradio.com   Que piensas??

TLGASP!!! TLGAHPS!!!

           ASA - HpS - Algunos pequenos a HpS.

Jay Gurudeva Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias a sus pies de loto...

             ASA - Aun no son loto pero limpio.

...Teniamos planeado con mi esposa viajar a Ecuador para finales de Noviembre, para poder servirlo personalmente en los dias de su visita...

      ASA -  Bueno.   Bueno.  Bueno.  Si no es austeridad demasiado fuerte!   Visita su familia tambien???

.. . mas hace una semana recibi mis documentos de permanencia y encontre un mejor empleo, entonces decidimos quedarnos en São Paulo; aprovechar la oportunidad.

       asa -  por un rato, no?  vamos a dejar el cuerpo casi pronto.

   ...quedamos un poco tristes por no viajar y poderlo servir,

     ASA - Aahh!  Solamente un PLAN ir a Ecuador, pero va a quedar en Sao Paulo.  Si es bueno..    podemos encontrar pronto de otro modo, proxima visita!

...mas creo que vani es mucho mas importante que vapu. entonces tomanos esa decision basandonos en eso.

        asa - claro vani es japa y 4-principios.  entonces todo siguien naturalment para buen sankirtan y regresa a casa!

...seguimos levantando temprano cantando nuestras rondas (japa joe) casi todas en la mañana sigo intentando llegar a las 20 -los Buses de São Paulo ayudan en eso- todo es lejos en esta ciudad,entonces conseguimos terminar las rondas camino al trabajo. en la noche un pequeño arati y SB antes de descansar. los fines de semana iendo al templo de suzano para hacer un poco de servicio para JBS, nos sentimos bien y creemos que asi estamos fuertes. siempre intentando mejorar nuestro sankirtan.

Muchas gracias por su asociación de todos los dias, nos mantiene fijos y entusiastas en nuestra vida espiritual.

se despide un vulgar holgazan disfrazado de buenas intenciones

        asa -  como se llama su esposa?  tiene cuatro brazos? Buen foto!!!   Tiene Jagannatha en su altar?  Lleva al templo cuando realiza servicio alla??

                 Hare Krsna Gurudeva Please accept my humble obeisances All glories to Srila Prabhupada We are in El Salvador.

     ASA --  Jaya!   AGTSP    paoho...  And we expect some exciting news!

The street is hard for book distribution, so we are doing universities. The devotees are very nice, we can learn many things from them. We are going to sankirtan with two devotees: Syama and Tulsi, both daughters of devotees. Before coming to El Salvador Prabhu Aravinda organised a marathon for m. Jambhavati's health.

        HpS -  Jaya..........................     We have been  so, so, so worried about that!  We have terrible communication with both Maitreya Das and Aravinda Prabhu...  Thank you so much for the news.   I guess Aravinda Das is a person who does a lot and talks little.  We want to help if we can.   Her Papa came to the temple in a nice suit and we all discussed BG.  He is such a nice person.    We get back to Lima on the 5th and the 6th is his birthday.  Ha!   Ha!   What a "coincidence", so we hope to have a birthday party for him.

I also know there is a devotee in Mexico df who is helping an other devotee to get medical treatment, I heard she was willing to help in m.Jambhavati's case. This is what I know in general, no details... I don't know if I can be of any help? Thanking your attention Your servant, Nitya Kisori dd

          ASA -- Hey..  No more Sankirtana news!
