ALL GLORIES TO HIS DIVINE GRACE A.C. BHAKTIVEDANTA SWAMI PRABHUPADA
ALL GLORIES TO YOU

Please accept my most humble obeisance to your holy lotus feet.

ASA - Lettuce feet.

Dear Guru Maharaja:

How are you?

HpS - ASA - Aaaaaaaaaa!   Drowning in this ISKCON Sankirtan!

4 principles ok, and 16 rounds and improving!! :)

HpS - Krsna never instructs anything impractical. All your desires will be fulfilled if you work on these two things as central.

We start a monthly program in my neighborhood of KIRTAN, I has mention to you about that, it's in a Yoga center. The last week was the first one and 5 new people has come, they was so inspire, chant holy names, take prasadam and we talk shortly with them, distribute books, was so great, PREACH IS THE ESSENCE (Jay SP!!!) photos attached. Really auspicios in Purusottama these people can chant!! Kirtan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=53&v=QafDDcu87NY (short video)

HpS - Teach them to dance, clap!

This week I have my Bhakti Sastri Exam 1st module. BG. OH KRSNA!

HpS - Kuruksetra, dharmaksetra!

Next month I start again to give the course "The Spiritual Scientist" with 2 great  Senior devotees. I'm so happy because of that.

HpS - "Give"?  You teach???

My job in the architectural estudio is well, I bring Maha Prasadam always I can, and they get mad! They love it!!! :D (some of them...)

Please bless me to be intelligent in choose always the better option for developing myself in KC. Protect me from myself and my selfish desires, with your blessing I can transcend my false ego. Any effort I make any goal I "get" is because of you, eternally thankful. I cannot express my gratefulness with words.

who always want to improve, your eternal SERVANT.

HpS - Watch for Tweets on the conference. et al!!   Japa - 4 principles.

Hare Krsna!!

Esteemed Professor Samaresh Bandyopadhyay,

We continue in a delightful battle with our energy resources and try to establish priorities very well.

Now that the Houston Education Conference is so close we are basically giving up on organizing anything and letting it go ahead now under its own steam.

This is practical too because this Peru Jung/India symposium is coming up very quickly.

After considering everything I have suggested to the scholars participating that we read the Jung-Kundalini Lectures as a basis for dialog and discussion. Here is the first letter we have sent to them:

Hare Krsna!

[2:39:01 PM] hp swami: We have just finished re-reading the Preface and Introduction to the Kundalini Lectures by Jung up to the section on Willhelm Hauer. Again, they are so stimulating for us.

[2:41:21 PM] hp swami: 1. I feel that we are very fortunate to have the scholarship of Shonu Shyamdasi and that he echoes what to us is one Jung's greatest gifts: Rigorous, thorough scholarship, combined with practical investigation, moral values and a good sense of humour and passion for one's own views without becoming proud and arrogant.

[2:42:35 PM] hp swami: 2. The content included in the Preface and Introduction so far is enormous. So many things upon with we could comment from our experiences and investigation. This brings us to the question why are we organizing these Seminars?

[2:44:07 PM] hp swami: We would say one principle reason is to free people from lust, anger, greed, fear, death, to let them taste immortality and investigate aspects of their immortal nature that are not even mentioned in their common education.

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada y a su sankirtana eterno.

Hare krsna querido Guru Maharaja, por favor reciba nuestras humildes reverencias.

Hemos estado como pujaris en el templo de Cusco durante 3 meses y a la vez haciendo sankirtana en las mañanas al rededor de 3 a 4 horas.

Nosotros hemos tratado de ayudarles en la adoración manteniendo el orden, la puntualidad y la limpieza, lo que podemos observar es que las deidades de cusco - mandir necesitan tener su propio local (casa), no compartimos la idea de  que a las Deidades le cocinen Karmis y le ofrescan el alimento, sabiendo muy bien las autoridades que son Deidades instaladas.

Como sugerencia seria bueno que las Deidades de Gaura Nitay sean cambiadas, pues estan muy dañadas (estan rajadas, las piernas y los brazos, casi rotas), hasta donde sabemos no se pueden adorar Deidades en esas condiciones. Esto es con respecto al pujari del templo de Cusco.

Ahora con respecto a nosotros estamos de sankirtana viajero, estuvimos 3 dias en Puno, ahora estamos en la ciudad de la Paz - Bolivia con 1000 libros, estaremos de 15 a 20 días, y de ahí estaremos viajando a Puno por una semana despúes estamos pensando ir a Arequipa por unos 5 días si es que se puede.

Probablemente iremos a Tarapoto a verlo y si no se pudiera lo veremos en Chosica  para Janmastami.

Nuestro sadhana es de mangala artik 4:30 am, 4 principios, 16 rondas de japa y un poquito más, lectura del S.B., Venu Gita, B.G. cap. 18, atendiendo a nuestras silas, ofrenciendoles dulces y frutas en la mañana y bañándolas con agua ganga.

Con respecto a nuestro deseo de ir a India aún seguimos teniendo el deseo, estamos juntando de a poco para nuestro pasaje, esperamos ir en febrero, ojalá se pueda si Krsna lo permite.

Lamentablemente no tenemos autoridad, esperamos encontrar una autoridad que sea para reportar nuestro sankirtana.

Visitamnos a M. Amparo, está muy mal la madre, es aveces muy difícil de entender que estámos en Martyaloka (el lugar de la muerte).

Nos damos cuenta que para mantener buenas relaciones con los devotos y con las personas que nos rodean es mejor estar en una ciudad sólo 2 semanas como máximo.

bueno Guru Maharaja muchas gracias por todo, en otra carta vamos a enviar las cantidades de libros que estámos distribuyendo y de nuestros amigos que nos están ayudando a distribuir los libros de Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna.

HpS - ASA - AGTSP Paoho.   Muchas gracias para sus noticias!!!   Mas, mas..  BG 10.9-11 para Vds.

Hare Krsna Gurumaharaja

Please, accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

With regard to the organization of the academic part of the event everything it is running very well. There is expectation and enthusiasm on the part of devotees  and authorities are letting us work in peace. For the activity of the workshops we will use a model of a little more dynamic than the usual, I hope that devotees find it interesting and that everything goes well in this regard. The logistics are also working out well, we have some problems with funding but I am sure that everything will resolve satisfactorily.

HpS - ASA --- AGTSP.  paoho... I just talked with Nitai-gaura-sundara Das and he said that he answered LAD's budget proposal and thought it was very nice. I have to look at his letter. It seems that there are so few good things in this world that if we do something even half way good we can get support!

Leaving aside the event, we still planning some major changes for the second half of th year. It's time to grow and become more professional, I have many questions for you, and we will talk in person. For now, that's the most important Gurudeva. See you very soon.

I say goodbye to you Gurudeva

your servant
Gandharva dasa

HpS - Like 3 weeks, 4 days and we are in Lima, at home with Radha Madan-bihari!!!

We will work on on-line participation for yourselves, in Spanish, for the program in Texas.

Todas las glorias a Sri Guru Y GOURANGA

AGTSP Y SS HpS¡¡¡

PAMHO

Querido Gurudeva, muchas gracias por su respuesta, si mantiene las respuestas precisas a destruir nuestra ignorancia.

Querido Gurudeva, las actividades en el templo son muy sesgo Gaday Prabhu y su esposa Nadiya DD son los responsables del intento de Goura Nitai, la versión estándar de la adoración se ha elevado y P. Gour Rupa está buscando.

Las clases y el partido kirtan Domingo están en mi cuidado, así como los programas que usted ha mencionado en la letra anterior, lo que hacemos en el restaurante Govinda.

Querido Gurudeva, sobre Mataji Amparo, nos enteramos de una de las cartas que le envió por el bloque, la verdad es que no sabíamos nada de ellos. En Cusco opera un centro de prédica dirigida por das Jagadisvara y entendemos que asistir allí, tienen limitaciones pra que debe saber sobre la situación de los devotos, pero como nos comunicamos con Prabhu y su esposa Amala, tenemos que mejorar el tema de la comunicación.

Este fin de semana voy a hacer de ellos un espectáculo digno de saber sobre su situación y ver cómo podemos ayudarle. Querido Gurudeva tiene 05 meses como administradores del templo, sabemos que tenemos muchas limitaciones, pero nos dijo que si nos mantuvimos un buen Sadana (16 rondas, 14 Principios) y mejorar nuestra Sankirtan ser fácil de superar los obstáculos ... Somos convencido de ello y estamos trabajando en ello PRA para servirle mejor Querido Gurudeva.

Reciban los lazos de todos los devotos de Cusco Yatra que esperan pronto nos conceda Su asociación misericordioso. Querido Gurudeva, por favor si pudirera escritura a un amigo Yatra algunos detalles y devotos agradecería un mejor informe.  [hps ?????]

Querido Gurudeva, nuemanete gracias por su tiempo y rezar para que Sri Krishna nos permite ver en agosto en Chosika Mandir. Querido Gurudeva Sri Krishna siempre derreme sus bendiciones sobre UD. Siempe están en nuestros pensamientos y corazón. Reverencias, Hare Krishna.

asirante a tu siervo inútil

HpS - Descansa suficiente. Krsna daraaa (will give you) suficiente intelegencias hace consas bien. Es buen carta, pero no tan "Urgente", no? <img alt="wink" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/wink_smile.png" title="wink" width="23" />

Hare Krsna

AGTSP

All glories to you guru dev

Hope your health be fine.

HpS - Imagine what your body will be like at 67 years old and expecting complete collapse in nine years. Ha! Ha! Hare!

we still alive, 35% Krsna consciousness 30% karma consciousness 35%  maya consciousness.

we are organizing a study group all the tuesday with the local devotees and we started with the NOI. we have kirtan, japa, conversation about the book and prasadam.

 we are opening  with local devotees a preaching center in these área where we live. in Villa GIargino (Cordoba) one of them rent a house and he live there and distribute Prasadam. The name of the preaching center is Jaipur “centro bhakti yoga”.

The idea is to have a Holistic Therapy center but for now all the thursday we have Bhagavad gita clases and two sunday per month sunday feast.

First of all our idea is to improve the sadhana of the devotees who participate in the proyect, have a better japa, cultivation of knowledge through the regular study of Srila Prabhupada books. i need to improve all of these pilars of the spiritual life (sadhana, study and contemplation).

we still here building a house with sticks, wood , stones and mud.

Vrsabhanu Nandini  and i were tolking with Abhirama prabhu from peru about the possibility to go to peru to participate in the programs there in August. we are following the plan of Abhirama Thakurji to arrange everything to go peru. He say it s 95% confirm. hope we can be usefull in your Sankirtan.

Here i send a link with the NOI movie in youtube. then we will add the subtitle in spanish.

Everything that you see, or think that we can correct we can do it.

thank you guru dev. your servant Ambarisa das

HpS AGTSP paoho. We will look at it!!!   Why not use the Krsna book instead of BG?   Print chapters with 14 pt type. That was the size of Srila Prabhupada's original and was very different reading it.
