Hare Krsna!!

Dear Gurudeva,
Please accept my humble obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada,
Gurudeva, your words got deep in my heart, bringing peace and solace. So clear so practical.
Now I see a direction a way to go, a base where to stand.
How shall I serve you gurudeva?
Bhakta temporary Bachelor.

HpS - ASA -    AGTSP         We are just agents of Srila Prabhupada and Lord Caitanya, so the basic service to Krsna through them is the Yuga dharma, chant Hare Krsna, recite Srimad Bhagavatam, and distribute what good you experience to others. Specifically, keep looking for ways to benefit your good family. Everybody is different and they need different medicine. Support your local Yatra.

It's pretty simple.    As you see you natural passions then put them in Krsna's service!!  How is the medical study going?

Hare Krsna Gurudeva,
Please accept my most humble obeisance,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

It is not easy to got a conexion while in the farm (cueramaro), we are coming to the village just few times. Sattva devotees did not send any report, and I could not send them a reminder.
I took advice for my desicion to go to the College this year or the next... The autorities here told me I can decide as I like.

ASA -   AGTSP   we sent a letter of recommendation for you!

Malati Mataji told to go this year, Prabhu Akrura told me to stay. With Mataji Malati, she gave me advice very quicly, with Prabhu Akrura and prabhu Aravinda I talked longer... My argument to stay is to finish this experience of sadhana, sankirtan and temple, like my brahmacarini asrama.

ASA - Sounds like good ideas!

I was waiting for these very long and now I have the opportunity to make my bases... I feel is not nice to go so soon. Maharaja Yadhunandana told me to go this year, because is better to take a good opportunity now ( "no dejes para mañana lo que puedas hacer hoy"). So I still feel confused. Is hard for me to take the decision because I feel both are so good! For instance, it looks that it will be for the next year because I don't have all the papers yet and the date had already passed (but Maharaja Yadunandana told me I can still send...), I took the decision of the next year more by external circunstances. It is not good I am so inmature, and not able to take my decision... Excuse me... I am not good to take advice, neither to take decisions...
We went to sankirtan on Friday and I distributed 46 small books. I am not so good on the street, too much mind, not enough spiritual desire, but still I feel lot of attraction for this sankirtan service, but I am like a bee trying to take the honey that is inside the bottle.
This bhakti sastri is so nice, I really didn't understood the BG before... It is so nice to study this books in the association of the devotees (the books are the center!). We have lot of good association, Prabhu Navina Nirada, P. Krsna Nama (auditor of the BBT, from India), m.Radhika (a Mexican senior devotee). They give us so nice classes and care. You are also coming. Life is perfect on the association of this kind of study programs.
But understanding deeper the books, is also making to see ourselves more deeply. And we see how fallen we are, and not sincere... I see most of the time I practice Krsna conciousness to stop from suffering, specting to have a better life, like a pious activity, to have good results. I see so many defects on me, I see I am in an ocean, and I don't so much to really get out. I will try to become more sincere, to apply what Krsna tells to Arjuna to take him out of his material conciousness.
I am just a pretender, but Krsna took a little of sincerity in my heart and He connect me with this mouvement, with Srila Prabhupada's mercy, with you, with the vaisnavas, and I am having an opportunity to heal the envy that keeps me far from devotional service to Lord Krsna. I am very fallen, but very fortunate, and at the same time unfortunate because I am not more surrendered. I pray I can becaome a devotee some day... devotees are dear to Krsna.

Excuse me Gurudeva it is so long,

ASA - Yeah!

you like the truth in few words.

ASA - So does God!
In this context, seen that the heart is so dirty, I see I don't reveal my mind to anyone. I don't have any more experience devotee how I can trust, and I don't have secrets, and he can help me to advance, like a mentor... to overcome my difficulties in a practical way, someone who can give a Krsna conciouss understanding of what I am going through... this is the meening of revealing the mind in confidence?

ASA - Yes, but you don't have to go into profound psycho drama with everyone you meet. We have a lot of friends, that we discuss things with on different levels.  (This is Monkey writiing)

A more experienced devotee, we trust, we don't have to lie or keep secretsm who can give us a Krsna coniouss understandind to overcome our difficulties? I think I lack of this...

Excuse me Gurudeva for my offenses,
I am chanting, 4 reg, mangala aratik, studing, sankirtan... all by the bhakti sastri program mercy

Sad to be in maya, happy to be in Iskcon, and to be your disciple!
your servant, Nitya Kisori dd

ASA - Pretty good letter.  You seem to be half mad.  That's O.K.   better to blabber from the heart than click from the head.

O.K.  We see you in just a few moments.

Stay until next year.  Yadu Maharaja is just in his Salesman's humor for BVC.  That's also good, but better to take advantage of where you are now and then go with a little patience on to university for your degree in education from the college!

Hare krishna!! Jay Srila Prabhupada !!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !!...Please Accept my most humble and respectful obeisances !!

My Sadhana report : Mangala Artik, 16 rounds of japa (everydays), Assistant of Pujari (thursday and sunday) , Maintenance of the temple, Bhakti-sastri with Laksmana Agraja Prabhu(sunday) and the other days i work in my locksmith shop.

About my situation of married,  for many years ago i did'nt have good relationship with my spouse so  we decide  to divorce last year because Rai KIshori Mathaji does'nt want any relationship with me. I try my best for arrange my situation but it's not possible and i understand that she does'nt want nothing of me . So my sons and i decide  to help Rai kishori dd to cooperate with her happiness  but she does'nt want  any help of  us and she feel frustrated about our married because i know  that from the beginning we starded bad . now she is in relationship with Bhakta Felix and  she leave the house for 1 week  my sons:

-Hrisikesha Govinda Das (Does'nt mind).

-Radha Kishori Sundari dd(She is not agree and she does'nt  want  to come  home because when she comes to home her mother always discusswith me and then she try to help but her mother does'nt want anything  and they discuss for me )  

-Sri Isvara das (He is not agree) and Caitanya Candrodaya das(he is not agree but he understand  that his mother was suffering for along time so He called to her from India manytines for speak with her trying to fix and calm down the situation and he say if  my mother wants to be happy let give the opportunity and krishna will arrange her happiness)

Rai Kishori dd wrote a letter to caitanya candrodaya das that she doest'nt want illicit sex just she wants protection and feels happy servant to krishna together with him.  we dont know if she is gona come back to HOme but i will go to my mother's house if she want to come back  to home , she wrote a letter to caitanta that she is gona leave the house because she does'nt want to discuss with me and anyone.

I will be out of her life and just  i will follow with my duty and keeping chanting hare krishna, bhakti-sastri, service and etc .

Always we will help her when she needs.

His servant Anuraksa Das .

HpS - ASA - Jaya!               Kali-yuga is a complete mess.  Things were bad enough in other ages, but now it is catastrophy, but the really good thing is that if you take shelter of the Holy Names, Hare Krsna, Hare Rama, then you can easily ge free from all these things and go to the Spiritual world!     Jaya.  So our only thought is that.   Stick to Srila Prabhupada's order of 16-enthusiastic rounds and 4-principles strictly and we will see that all these material relations adjust and become auspicious.

Todas las Glorias a Sri Sri Goura Nitay!!!!!!

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!!!!

Todas las Glorias a usted querido Gurudev !!!!!!! que el Señor Nrsimhadeva lo protejan siempre!!!!!

Mis más humildes reverencias a sus pies de loto

asa- pies de lodo,   tlgasp...

....mi reporte de esta semana (16 rondas 4 principios estrictos, servicio en el templo), básicamente estoy concentrandome en levantarme temprano, cantar 16 buenas rondas, estudiar los libros de SP ( para tener una comprensión más profunda de la filosofía y no que sean solo palabras que no aplico en mi vida diaria), tratando de ser una buena madre ( me cuesta ser autoritaria con ellos tenemos una relación más de hermanos que de madre - hijos) en poco tiempo mi hija Manjari de 9 años será más alta que yo, ella es como mi madre, siempre dandome consejos inteligentes de como mejorar, cuando estuvimos alejados del templo ella me regaño diciendo que porque la había alejado de Krishna, si para ella era lo más importante, esto fue  como un balde de agua fría para mi diminuto cerebro, en parte todo esto también lo estoy haciendo por mis hijos...

Está semana tengo que hablar con P. Omkesavaya quién es el encargado de refugios, iniciaciones,etc..me dijo que debo hacer una repactación

asa - palabra desconocido para nosotros

, bueno más adelante le contaré como me fue con esto...Gurudev, pienso que no es bueno lamentarse por lo que uno hizo o dejo de hacer, pero no puedo más que entristecerme al pensar en todas las oportunidades que tuve de servirlo y no lo hice, en lo poco que valore el tener sus instrucciones y su guía, eso es de lo único que me lamento, en haber perdido el tiempo en seguir a mi mente y no a sus pies de loto, oro a RadhaKrishna me permitan servirlo apropiadamente, gracias a usted es  que yo estoy nuevamente aquí.....

asa - buena oracion para srila prabhupada y sus representates.

Dentro del programa de conferencias que los devotos están preparando para usted en Chile, estoy organizando una conferencia en mi casa en el campo a unos 35 minutos de Santiago, ahí mi madre está terminando la construcción de un centro cultural, ya quedan solo unas semanas para su inauguración, ella tiene talleres que realiza en el hospital donde trabaja ( ella es matrona), y hace unas reuniones con los que participan en los talleres, gente educada pero que le gusta la vida sencilla  en contacto con la naturaleza, así que estamos planeando una conferencia para que usted pueda visitarnos....esperamos contar con sus bendiciones para poder servirlo apropiadamente...

Se despide una inútil aspirante a su misericordia

Bhaktin Andrea

asa -  esperamos que luz de la bhagavata de hanuman prabhu esta listo para distribuir a ellos....

TLGASP!

PAMHO, Hare Krsna Gurudev, le escribo para enviar un reporte de los programas de sankirtan, hemos realizado dos veces, los estamos haciendo cada sabado por medio, en este último tuvimos la oportunidad de poner un stand con libros, prasadam, y bhajans en una calle muy transitada de santiago (paseo ahumada), mientras los distribuidores de libros se acercaban a la gente en los alrededores de los stand, al estilo del programa "weekend warriors" Fue una muy linda experiencia, para Su complacencia los resultados de la distribucion  fueron: 94 libros pequeños , 71 libros medianos, 4 reina Kunti, 2 Kapiladeva y 5 Bhagavad Gitas, con un total de 171 libros, abajo le adjuntaré algunas fotos <img alt="smiley" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.gif" title="smiley" />. 

También queria aprovechar de contarle que en lo personal dejé de asistir oficialmente al curso de bhakti sastri con prabhu patraka, se me hacia muy complicado conectarme a skype, y ademas no me ajustaba con el tiempo para poder responder las guias de estudio. 

y por último si no es mucha molestia, queria hacerle una pregunta: ¿esta bien cuando al cantar el Maha Mantra se pronuncia "ramo" en vez de "Rama"?

Bueno Querido Gurudev gracias por siempre responder mis cartas, espero que Krsna  lo proteja en todo momento, se despide su aspirante a sirvienta Fernanda Leiva.

asa -  jaya     tlgasp.      muchas gracias reportaje de sankirtana.  quieremos participar....     deja curso con patraka, pero cual curso de estudio sistematica de los libros de srila prabhupada tiene...     por que, ramo?    interesante.    la mas importante es el significado.   que significa, rama, para vd.    gracias prabhu.......

Toda Gloria a Sri Sri Goura Nitay!!!

Toda Gloria a Srila Prabhupada!!

Toda Gloria sea a Ud Gurudeva!!!

  Aqui estoy otra vez Gurudeva, Jahnava devi dasi necesita de su consejo e instrucción, en esta ocación es porque el último Domingo asistí a una clase de Sajjan Swami , el es un discípulo de Prabhupada, hermano espiritual suyo,claro, pero tengo entendido que se apartó de Iskcon. Y por consejo de un devoto mayor me  pidió que le pregunte a usted Guru Maharaja, si está bien que asista a estos programas. 

HpS - ASA -   Ooof!   TlgaSP    pfanrh   Pienso es suficiente bueno consultar con el Presidente del Templo.    Si es algo FUERTE podemos communicar mas, pero pienso su Presidente va a ser suficiente rasonable tomar decision. Presenta sus ideas y preguntas si tiene algo, obtener una buena idea por que el ofrezca el consejo que tiene.

  Vale aclarar que no es mi costumbre asistir a estas reuniones, yo tengo mi servicio fijo en el templo los domingos y es mi responsabilidad cumplir lo mejor posible. Pero me gusta experimentar por mi misma y no limitarme a conocer solo Maestros Espirituales de Isckon, e incluso me gusta conocerla prédica de otras religiones, para tener un panoramamas amplio de lo que se está predicando fuera de Iskcon. 

HpS -  Si, esta bien.  Presenta esta ideas al Presidente.   Possbile el es acuerdo ir con Vd. o sugiera que va con otro devoto.  Yo he participado asociado con Maharaja con compania de Mathuresa Prabhu una vez por ejemplo quien es Presidente del Templo en Bolivia.

 Espero Gurudeva que esto no sea un problema para Usted ni para nadie. Mi casa es Iskcon y mi refugio Srila Prabhupada, Usted y los devotxs. 

 Estoy conciente de todo lo que está haciendo Usted por nosotros cada día, así que una vez mas quiero agradecrle su feedback trascendental...

 Eternamente agradecida de poder comunicarme con Usted Gurudeva, me postro a Sus Pies de Loto una y otra vez.

 Jahnava devi dasi, su sirvienta.

Hare Krsna.

HpS - Jaya!    Esperamos su respuesta.
