Hare krsna AGTSP, PAMHO 

Dear Gurumaharaja!!!
20 bcaris and we hope more by the end of the summer. The chicago temple is in the best moment ever. This is historical. Therfore my sadhana on such steady atmosfere it could not be better. 16 rounds, jumping in mangalarati every day.
This summer is going to be very busy. Here is a summary of my preaching activities to the latin people.
Book Distribution regularly 4 days of the week. 1 new person every weekend. Hoping increase faster the number of member in latin group. 50 members before i leave chicago?
Bhakti club at Truman Collage. Succesful program. Attached picture.
Food for life. I'm involved on organization and our latin group is engaged in this recently.
Bhakti Vrksa where we cultivate through seminars new people. Spiritual Scientist course.
and diferent services in the temple.

I dont have questions about visnu tattva for you. I know that krsna is the Controler and I m his servant and that is enough for me. It is wrong not to have these tipe of questions?

              ASA - Hmmm. If you are reading then you should be getting practical, exciting questions, no? He is my Controler, but what does He want from me today, for example? Mother Yasoda had to make decision about what service to offer!
Im reading regularly and I already finished 2 canto of BV with Param Padam, but is only an acceptance. I dont feel this like a problem. Can you give me guidance gurudeva?

             ASA - We don't understand. What does, "Only an acceptance" mean? Very interesting.

Finally, the temple president, Nityananda Prana is asking me about  you all the time and he really wants to invite you. These last to weeks Radhanath S, Romapada S, BB Govinda S, Danavir Gos visited us and waiting for Gunagrahi S and others. This temple has a lot of oportunities in preaching field to offer Gurudeva. And the congregation really want your transcendental asociation.

Shold I give to Nityananda Prana the email for disciples to be in contact with you? Or may be another one?

I know that you are extremly busy and your health is not always good, and i can visit you wherever you are, but they are asking me.

              HpS - Ooof. Health is O.K. It is just a result of "energy". At 66-years old we have that kind of energy, so we have to "act our age". I think we can visit, but have to get our preaching programs a little more defined first!

Well thats all for now. I'm gonna work hard to finish my mision here.

HpS - ASA - How much longer will you be there??? What is you plan. Our respects to Nityananda Prana Das.

Srila Prabhupada ki Jay!!!!!!!!

ys etasa krsna das

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I hope you are fine.

Unfortunately i still haven't received your TPP-CB :(
I hope the Royal Mail didn't find it as a national security risk and i will receive it next week.
Thanks for your shipping i hope i can pay it back sometime.

All the best!
Your servant,
Sri Radhe dd

HpS - ASA --- AGTSP.   paoho. Thank you so much for asking. We are doing these without much reaction so far except for your good self. We have been having mild war with the photo copy machine. Here is like 10-cents each for copies in market so that is $10 just to copy each one. NGD machine in office is free but we must use it when office is closed and it had malfunction(!). Also, to go from 9-1/2 to 11 inches and loss in quality by reproduction has slowed us. Now we are making simple copies of the first five Composition Books and planning to distribute the actual originals.
We can only do that when we get back to Murfreesboro. Now we are in Texas for the Temple Opening and are not sure what where we will be when we return to Tennessee. We have your address and three more. After the fifth we were thinking to change to an 11-inch format for easy and quality copying.
They seem to have good value.

• TPP-CB
• NOI 5AM Lectures
• BhVai - Seems to all have good utility.

HK TGASP PAMHO

Gurudeva gracias  Krsna estoy contenta viviendo en templo de wilson donde hay muchos iviendo gracias a la presencia del Sr. JBS. Estoy siempre asistiendo a Gaura Nitay de Wilson un día a la semana en mangala y distribuyendo libros, este mes empezmos a estudiar para el examen de titulación, es un objetivo este año, entre otros.

Sin embargo quería compartir estos pasatiempos de sankirtana:

Una vez distribuyendo libros en buses un Sr. tomo los libros y se quedó contemplando la foto de Srila P´pada, cuando me acerque me contó que lo había conocido en india, que hablo horas con él, que sabía el idioma y hablo en hindi, “¡Era muy sabio!” decía, me contó que tenía fotos con él, y como desafiante me pregunto qué sabes tú de este conocimiento, le dije que estudiaba y enseñaba los libros, y agregue que había que practicarlo. Le invité al templo, me dejo su tarjeta vendía antigüedades. Me quedé pensando tal vez fue antes devotos, se vehía que sentí algo de nostalgia, quede en llamarlo e invitarlo al programa, lo llamare en la fiesta del Sr. Nrsimha.

En otra oportunidad me encontré en el bus con un Sr. que todo el rato hablo con su amigo mientras daba el mantra, al final le ofrecí los libros los tomo y manifestó que le hiciera cualquier pregunta que él podría responderla que sabía mucho, al final aceptando el reto le pregunte cuál es el propósito de la vida y el respondió ser feliz y tener paz, por supuesto que no le dije que era correcto, pero que si era una buena respuesta, que debía investigar más, era un jñani, y como él hay muchos a con los que nos estamos encontrando todo el mundo necesita de estos libros ojala pueda siempre entregarlos y enseñarlos, lo lindo de enseñar es que uno aprende, tiene buena asociación y hace amistad de por vida. Gracias Gaurangi, Kirtida, Tania, Rukmini, Gandha, Nikunja Bihari y Lucchiano, etc. por su asociación.

Estoy convencida que cualquier devoto por tan sólo estudiar los libros hará su servicio mejor, incrementara sus deseos de predicar y no dejara de amar más y más a Srila P´pada, y a Gurudeva por este regalo invaluable.

Ahora cada día según el calendario leemos la vida de los devotos del Sr. y estamos más entusiastas, estamos más contentos. Pedimos sus bendiciones para vencer a maya, sus pruebas para poder mantenernos puros y seguir sus instrucciones. 

Su hija que lo adora y extraña mucho:

Yugala Kishora Dasi

              HpS - Jaya!!!  Muy bien. Esta adelantando! Cual va a ser el resultado? Vd. va a tener un servicio como Draupadi en Maha-bharata.

Ha!  Ha!  Ha!   Antes pruebas fuertes! Y cual es el resulado?????  Puebas mas fuertes.  Ha!  Ha!  Ha!             Buena suerte con la Assemblea de los Kurus, Senorita!!

Pleace acept my humble obesience..vanca kalpa.....

All glories to Srila Prabhupada...

I wish that you are very well, Its been long time since I comunicate by tecnology with you.We folow you via twitter and reading constantly the blog with our smart tel nokia 520 but is not posible to wrigth from it ,its not posiblem sing in my acount, any way...Here we are in Sierra de los Padres, we arrived from Chile on the 10 april after a extatic sankirtan travel with Abhimanyu das, Adi Yajña das and others. We distributed moreoless 5000 SP tracendental books, we done several very nice preaching programs, Nityananda Trayodasy fesival in a hotel in Pichilemu was vry nice, lots of new bhaktas aproaching to SP lotus feet,In the city of Talca we been at the radio preaching and we did some programs to. Personaly I can feel in the Cile citizens that they are much more open for K.con than Argentina,it could be my maya i dont know...

Right now we are finishing the bramacaris ashram at the SdP, MdP. Preaching not very much, just lecturing at the loft,some sankirtana , reading and studing quait good..Is increacing..(.finishing SP lilamrta nectar..SB 3.24...NOI..Narottama vilasa....)morning programs, good japa, nirjalas ekadasi with 8 extras rounds and extra reading.Preparing a preaching program for the university ,distribution prasadam,etc to start when coming bhack from Brazil..

We already change our car for a VW van and we are programing  sankirtana in Brazil  for next month June, July..With  a group of bcrs...

My idea is hardly try to dedicate this life for SP book distribution, emancipate from temple deaty worshiping.so we are more free to travel and form a bcrs groop of sankirtan...I now I dont have cualifications for doing it but am Complete sorrending to SP lotus feet and yours instructions....How is the best way to do it.? How can we get in the way to travel and preach with out  limit .?

Programing visiting India for 2015...

Please give me your blessings...All glories to your instrctions that keeps me at  SP lotus feet

All glories to your lotus feet, the tracendental shelter of this insignificant servant..

Panca tattva das.

Nitay Goura premanande...HARI HARI BOLLLLL!!!!!!!

              HpS - ASA - AGTSP paoho. Such a great honor to hear from you. All of your news is very, very nice. Traveling Sankirtana also seems nice. It is more of a tendency for B'caris, while Grhastha preaches more from his community. Main thing is just to understand what Krsna thinks is best service for you. Look at Preface to NOI and it says that as soon as we are in the mode of goodness then everything else will be revealed. BG 10,10-11 says same. So, trust your inspiration, intelligence. Confirm them with BBT books, ISKCON devotees and you should be a super efficient soldier.

Of course, you can consider taking Sannyasa by 45-years or so. Krsna has wonderful plans, no? So certainly He will engage you in His fun. Please send us your advice and news.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Maharaj, we are going to start Bhakti Sastri soon due to the mercy of Shri Hari Prabhu taking on this amazing service. What do you think of Bhakti Sastri, even though it is through the forum of Startmeeting, being a class that is open for others to join as guests at the new Portland temple? I wanted to introduce this idea to the temple presidentJai Sacinandana Prabhu.  It would be in a classroom at the temple, and those that  want to join can be asked to bring their laptop and given the code to login as a guest. Formal students could always attend, but I thought that if others want to hear a nice Friday class at the new temple, they can also attend. Shri Hari said he is okay with the class being open to anyone in Portland, but I would also have to propose the open forum idea to him to get his approval.

Also, Maharaj, I need to admit to what might be a very unfortunate action I took last January. Nick and I jointly filed for divorce and it was granted a few months ago. I was in a bunch of maya, krodha, mixed emotional state that I know was due to wanting some kind of shelter. I hope to find this shelter by just being a devotee for Guru, Prabhupada, Krsna, my son, and the devotees. Despite, I will still follow your instruction to serve my child and Nick Prabhu best I can. I ask for your forgiveness though for acting so rashly (I can do this, my astrology says it is in my nature but now that I know I will genuinely Work on this raja guna business. :( ).  

Thankyou for listening and tolerating general rascaldom...

Jai Sri Krsna, Jai Radhe!

Your servant,

Kamagayatri dd

PAMHO

I hope this meets U in really Good Health ¡¡¡

               HpS - ASA -Brother Ass --- AGTSP  paoho. Actually our health, energy, bodily funcion is under GREAT pressure for the Spring. We are having allergic reaction in our nose, throat, lungs, even our skin in itching! So we prayed to God and only had orange juice today and rested and we survived and got some work done! Any stress on the system for digesting Pizza or pasta or even potatoes and the fire, pitta drops then the external fire, pollen from the trees makes the skin, lungs eyes BURN! You probably have similar challenges. Its fun, like playing a competition game with Maya. Of course, in the end our body will burn up, just like any candle, but then we will get another. As long as we can deal with each situation as arrangement of the Gopis to help in Krsna it is fine, new, fresh.

Gurudeva this year JBS from Miraflores are in wilson quite a pastime jeje.

So the Celebration for Nrismha Caturdasi will be in wilson many many devotees are working in order to develop a nice program for the satisfaction of The Lord and devotees for instance Rohini kumar das is organizing more than 6 hours of KIRTAN, we will have abhishek , maha, drama uff many things but nothing will be possible without iur blessings please kindly send us your blessings so the whole program will be a success ¡¡¡¡

Thank U in advance

Trying to be your disciple

        HpS - Because we are alone in ou Office, Cave, we need Lord Nrsmhadevas love so much more, or we get very lonely and depressed. I don't know how He became our friend. So many deities we have had but He has been the first and a friend through so many problems.
