Sanskrit for kids, Santiago Chile.

Dear Maharaj:

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I hope you´re very well. We are very happy, working in our projects; Visvanath is organizing the temple´s festival, which has been very beautiful.

Since 3 months ago, I started to use the sanskrit set with the kids in the temple here in Santiago, Chile.

Because I live too far and I haven´t had more time, we are doing it every 2 Sundays; the reception has been very enthusiastic even with non-devotees kids.

The program starts with chanting mantras and then I do a small yoga class so the kids can move some, also I teach them some pranayamas so they can be more receptive for the sanskrit class. We end with simple prasada (fruits, sandwich or what the parents brings).

I´ve adapted some activities so they can be funnier for the kids, because we have a large range of age, from 3 to 13 years old. Nevertheless, I always guide myself by the books. It has been a great challenge to do this service as it´s difficult to have all the kids attention for 1 ½ hrs, but they always seems very happy and anxious to learn more sanskrit, besides they love to write in devanagari!

Please Maharaj, we need your blessings so the program keeps working, improving and giving fruits. There´s a lot to do and learn!

HpS - Hare Krsna!   Thank you so, so much for this news.   We are trying to develop this Sanskrit learning for oursleves also.  Many citations where Prabhupada encouraged it if it was possible. It gives access to so much knowledge, refined understanding of Prabhupada's translations. We are trying to organize the 3rd Latin American Symposium on Education with ISKCON in Brazil, April 2017. Of course, we will try to make this Sanskrit study more available then. We hope that your good selves or others from Chile can come.
We are sure Krsna will give you good intelligence to expand this and engage us as you can!!!

 

Isvari news (little urgen)

Hare Krsna Dear Maharaja,

PAMHO. AGTSP.

I inform you of the following:

1.-The chairman of National Council is: Caitanya Candra db, su mail :[email protected]

Vice president o Vicechairman: Caturatma d ([email protected])

Secretary: Karuna krsna db: [email protected]

 Natioanal Council have a 3 year period. They have too your mail.

2.-With respect to compile the Actas it will make Yamunesvara d (he was secretary before Jivasakti d), he has recordings of meetings and will transcribe.

There are a lot of homework for Yamunesvara p.
HpS - Thank you. Seems nice. B'cari for President and Grhastha for Vice President.  We are concerned about reconstructing the previous decisions, because we must all know what are the rules, but right now hoping that the current Secretary can publish the results. We will put a little of this in the DTC now.

3.-I had a brief conversation with Caitanya Candra db and he said to seek a devotee who communicate agreements meetings.
HpS - AGTSP!   Paoho...  Do you mean he will seek someone can who can communicate the agreements from the meetings?

4.-NIMSAR report latest, I forgot write in the title "little urgent", excuse me.

Pray of the health of your body are is better.

5.-2 consults? 

_Most students of Berkeley University are revolutionaries, this is due to its education system?

HpS - I don't know so much since we are not there so much, but I think that now they are no longer revolutionarys. Chinese are more prominent and so is kind of Artha, Economic Development, focus.

I think it is because incentivize to sutends to investigate. You know anything about this?

_What difference betwen Special Category A and B? 
Piggy: Category A is like non-Calendar, Personal Sadhana, Sankirtan Reports etc. Discussion of certain themes like Education in ISKCON etc.
Category B is same thing but more permanent topics, more conclusions of Category A

Can we perform "Agnihotra" - with more clear question. India Calendar

Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
    Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
    All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
    All glories to Guru parampara.

    Gurudev, in my previous letter, URL : http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/node/6949
    we had asked, can we perform "Agnihotra"?

    we means to say, can we learn & perform "Agnihotra", other then what we (ISKCON temples)
    do Agnihotra for Initiations, Weddings etc. Except these, can we learn & perform other
    Agnihotra  also? If so what those should be?
    
your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das

HpS - ASA --- Ahhh!   I don't know much about this. It is not the work of a Sannyasi, more for Grhastha.  There are devotees in ISKCON who do this for these different Sanskaras.  I think Mukunda Das, the Head Pujari in Vrndavana would know about this and of course there must be Brahmanas in your Yatra who do this. For example there is the Hari Cutting Ceremony and others, no?

Do you have any photos from the book-release in Delhi??? Or do you know anyone who does?   We are planning on fixing our India schedule three months in advance. We arrive 31st December so we will start buying the tickets 31st September. Actually we have the tickets and program up until the 10th of January with Delhi, Tirupati, Madras.

Hare Krsna!

HpS - Resign as Bh. Sastri Examiner in Peru

AGTSP

Esteemed Bhakta-rupa Das,
Paoho.   We hope this meets you well and in the best of spirits!    By this letter let us formally end our position as the Bhakti-sastri Examiner in Peru. Rohini Devi Das is still officially the Administrator for the Diploma in Peru, and as far as I know has been very careful to keep the Records for the Diplomas.
A copy of this letter is sent to the President and Secretary of the Peru National Council and I expect they will contact you to see about the new Officials for the Diplomas. Their Candidates for Examiners etc are also receiving a copy of this letter.

If you write in simple English, www.translate.google.com can make the shift from English to Spanish pretty well.

Thank you so much. We will be in India from 1st January to 15th February and hope to see you then.
Your very fallen servant,
Hanumatpresaka Swami
