Esteemed Swamiji
It is gratifying to learn about the fact that your preparations for the Peru event are in place and my suggestions have been welcome. I am sure that this noble initiative will fructify in further ventures of practical import. Wish you and your learned and messianic colleagues the very best . My fond regards and goodwill will be with you through your gruelling travels . Look forward to seeing you when you are in India .
Regards

Jaya Sri Krsna!!
Esteemed Dr. Chakravarty, Prof. Samaresh et al,
It is very animating for us to be able to write to your esteemed self. We are still in USA after our India, Europe tour. The work for the June 21-23 Symposium on "Psychology and the Sacred" is going on with great roaring and splashing. Your article for the parallel magazine, 'Solaris' has been translated. The short video interview that we did in your residence in Delhi has been sub-titled and will be one of two video presentations for the Symposium. The other is from Nobel Laureate candidate, Humberto Maturana. Also, your suggestion that the organizers approach indigenous groups that have efforts to preserve their cultures and get intellectual members of their communities to join the Symposium has been taken very seriously by the organizers. It was already on the edge of the marketing scheme, as Peru is a place where indigenous cultures are very active.
Dr. Samaresh mentioned that you had asked him if we were going to send your ticket for our physical participation in the Symposium and I hope with very fervent zeal that we had not given the impression that we were going to inconvenience your esteemed self at this early date by dragging you out of your splendid country to take you to the remote land of Peru!
In the beginning the Library and NIOS were aiming at a global event, but this was quickly reduced to a Western world event and finally it has come down to Western Hemisphere, and this has been manageable. Is that alright? In so many ways I see you as one of the chief strategists in this endeavor. The general view now is that if things go on as successfully as they are now then there will be a plan for a Global event in 2017 or 2018. One of the principal organizers with the Peruvian National LIbrary commented, " This year, Hanuman Swami, we will make friends and enemies. Next year we will have your Battle of Kuruksetra".
The magazine will be ready for release on the 20th of June. We hope to have a copy of it to you before that. The prestige and actual content of the contributors is very high, and the interest in translating everything to more practical results is universal. None of the contributors are ivory-tower thinkers. We will have a copy of that to you as soon as it is even in the final review stage. Please then give us more advice. With the magazine in hand I will then also promote your ideas amongst relevant people, such as Hector Behar and others.
After South America I will be for two weeks in Houston for the 3rd Annual, North American, Education with ISKCON conference. Then we are planning to sit still and rest and work from Tennessee until January. Then seems South America and India again. I think this is the last year we will have much to do with administrative work and hope that we can start to contribute more with individual and collaborative writing and media work.
I guess I should not say anymore until the magazine is in our hands and we can use that as a basis for much, much more communication and promotion. If you bless us we certainly hope to be your agent in this effort.
Always at you service,
Hanumatpresaka Swami

HpS - ASA -- Very nice news! What is happening with legalizing NIMSAR??
Hare Krisna por favor Acepte mis humildes reverencias Toas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada.
Le he escrito varias cartas y nose si llegan, pero no tengo respuesta.
Muchas gracias
Su humilde sirviente Jagamohan Das.
HpS - ASA ~ We have received some, and they were very nice, and were answered them. Please send more.
HARE KRISNA
Por favor, acepte mis más humildes reverencias, Gurú.
Gracias por su contestación y por las correcciones en su última carta. Lo primero que quiero hacer es contestar a su pregunta de que si tengo amigas en la Yatra. Si tengo: Pournamasi, Mathura Mani, Yus (esposa de Kirtan), Sveta, Mela Devi, Carcica e Irina, son las más cercanas. También me llevo bien con otras muchas devotas como Diana, Kalindi, Ranga, Antaranga Manjari, Mani Manjari, etc. La verdad es que disfruto mucho la asociación con los devotos. Me encanta estar con ellos porque siento que son personas especiales. Aprendo mucho de ellos y mi alma se beneficia mucho de las conversaciones acerca de Krisna que tenemos y demás cosas que giran en torno a Él.
Ahora me gustaría contarle algo más sobre mi servicio devocional. Sirvo en el templo todos los domingos por la mañana en la cocina ayudando a Jaga Mohan a preparar el Prasadam. Y si se necesita, ayudo a servirlo después. También estoy haciendo giwis para el templo de Madrid y para Nueva Vrajamandala. Hago Sankirtan varios días a la semana en mi pueblo, Villalba. Es un pueblo situado en la Sierra de Madrid. Es muy grande, casi una pequeña ciudad. Los libros de S. Prabhupada tienen buena aceptación .Hace poco que hemos puesto en marcha un Kirtan todos los sábados en el parque del Retiro. Voy a todos los que puedo así como a todos los Harinam organizados por el templo. También me he ofrecido para dar cursos y talleres de Reiki en el templo. Actualmente estamos organizando uno. Cuando voy a N. Vrajamandala, colaboro activamente en todo lo que puedo: limpiar, cocinar, etc. A partir de ahora empezaré a coser ropa de las Deidades para arreglarla, bajo la supervisión de Mela Devi, pujari y excelente repostera(pastelera) de las Deidades allí. Por último, canto el Nirsimha en el templo cuando me lo asignan o el bhajan. Me estoy preparando para poder cantar con el armonio y mrindanga (con los kartalas sé un poco). Cantar a Krisna es algo tan maravilloso y sublime...No puedo expresar lo que siento cuando canto para Él, o cuando cocino para Él, o cuando limpio en Su templo. Cuando sirvo en el templo me siento un poco más cerca de Krisna y eso me da una felicidad que no puedo describir. Siento que mis pies no tocan el suelo y simplemente, ya no quiero hacer nada mas que estar postrada a Sus pies de Loto. Y cuanto mas Le sirvo mas Le quiero servir y mas feliz me siento y así por siempre.
Muchas gracias por su tiempo y atención.

HpS - ASAS --- Pienso es un hecho que Vd. era una devota (monja) en su vida previa. En foca en desarrollando apreciacion profundo de valor de su Japa, entonces en base de eso puede organizar otros servicios.
Esperamos mas noticias del Yatra, sus ciudad. Un festival cada ano con los devotos de Madrid et al???
Hare Krisna mi querido Guru Deva por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias Todas las glorias a Srla Prabhupada.

Intentando ser su sirviente Jagamohan Das.
