aqui seguimos en barcelona, estoy nuevamente distribuyendo libros cada dia; en agosto las personas de barcelona se van de vacaciones y solo quedan los turistas, aun asi siempre algunos libros puedo dar por misericordia de krishna, asi nos estamos manteniendo a nivel economico.

 Continuo con el servicio en el pujari los dias viernes y un domingo al mes.

 16 rondas (tratando de mejorar la calidad) y 4 principios cada dia, hago el programa de la mañana pero me cuesta empezar 4:30.

Varuthapa nos regalo una Tulasi y estamos cuidando de ella.

Vaisnavi nuestra hija ya cumplio 2 meses, estamos aprendiendo a ser padres cada dia.

Hare Krsna BELOVED Gurudeva 

AGTSP 

PAMHO
 

I hope this meets YOu in really good health ¡¡¡

Despite we communicate everyday at Japa Joe, I think that it is mandatory that I report in detail my activities plus, this letter is urgent because I am going to humbly request your blessings because without that  I can not do anything.

1.- We continue with our service as chief pujari in wilson now we have 3 more kids JBS JAYA.. new devotees to work with it is a struggle because everybody has a different personality etc ufff we just need to be patient, also the authorities are kind of changing and we were accostumed to work in one way and now we just have to adjust some things. My politic is not to get involve in politics jeje I just do my service and work with the authority that Krsna has chosen. 

HpS - ASAS - AGTSP paoho... Enthusiasm is more importan than patience. If you have a nice goal in mind for improved relations with each person, appreciating the value of the difference of each person and develop a nice way to reach that goal you will be enthusiastic and patience follows as a delightful result, like watching a flower grow at an amazing pace!

We go to chosica once a month and do service in pujari from noon to night it is very nice to spend one day in chosica with RMB, the sun, etc. We feel really blessed to have the association of the deities again. <img alt="heart" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/heart.png" title="heart" width="23" />

2.- We are organizing Balaram purnima well trying jeje as U told me once my first duty as chief pujari is to involve others in the service so I asked for help in  many different ways. not just money they can bring some fruit, flour, flowers, etc but it is a pitty that just some very few actually people colaborate with us, If just one of all the devotees bring some bhoga for example we can do marvelous preparations for the deities, So WHAT CAN I DO TO MOTIVATE THEM??

HpS - ASA - Srila Prabhupada told Panca-dravida Swami to preach to people that were not chanting their rounds, then if they would not listen not to become influenced by their bad behavior but to continue with a good example and because they were following 4-principles and doing some service, Karma-yoga, then they would feel guilty to see his example and eventually start to act properly. That's one suggestion. There are more in P'pada's books!

3.- Ratha yatra 2014 we are part of the RY team ¡¡ along with Rohini kumar das and Narayani dd (BBS), again we need a lot of support, so the same question as above...So WHAT CAN I DO TO MOTIVATE THEM to support the RY ??
 HpS - ASA - One above, another here. "sangat sanjayate kaman", NOI. One's desires and ambitions develop fromt he company he keeps. Who are the associates of the people you want to enthuse? Find out who amongst them are you friends. Get them to help and then engage them in motivating their friends. Put up names of donors: "Oh, my friends have given S./ 75 this week, I also shall give"..
 

...we need lots of funds, we are going to do activities etc... but basically we need your blessings Gurudeva please I see Lord Jaghannatha's face and I just feel inspire...

4. OUr BV should be better I am realizing that many verses I have lost :) I need to refresh them and sometimes a whole review needs to be done.

HpS - ASA - Yes, us also. We must print our revised PVB (Personal Verse Book)!!!

5.- I am kind of delay with my thesis, the tests that I have taken and I am going to use as a sample needs to be graded by another person who is taking some time, but I am going to push her to hurry up.

   HpS - Jaya!

6.- I am taking harmonium and singing classes it is very relaxing I have presented once in the temple jeje it was ok I think now in Balaram purnima I am going to perform again it is really nice to see how the holy name does everything I like to play in front of my deities I have my personal harmonium and i sing for Them for hours jeje it really pacifies and heals my heart :)

HpS - ASA --- Very nice! Another lady can play drum and another Kartals? Three is good for music.

7.- I am also taking cooking lessons to improve my cooking abilities it is really nice I can say now I can prepare that for Krsna ¡¡¡¡¡ <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" />, my mom also helps me with tips the day before yesterday we cooked together really nice.

8.- I am giving spanish classes to one hindu girl she is married her name is chetalli she is so nice really pious, her grandmother worships tulsi does ekadasi, and one day I was with my SB in english she saw and told me, U read SB??? I said yes, do you have the whole collection??? yes I said she replied can U give me to me the first volume to read???? yes I said then she started to read the sanscrit, when she finished learning spanish a good practice for her would be reading SB, I felt so good she was reading Prabhupada's SB <img alt="angel" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/angel_smile.png" title="angel" width="23" />

Well I guess that's it sorry for the long letter

Thank U for all your effort in the symposium ¡¡¡ NAS ki jaya 

We already have learned a lot

Tryinng not be an embarrasement for U

Candramukhi dd

HpS - ASA -- AgtSP. Paoho. Yesterday, Monday, our day of rest after the symposium we had to work so hard to organize the "Rest". Then we gave like 4-1/2 hours of classes. Ja! Ja! Jare! We were not tired on Sunday, we were exhausted. Then by Monday we recovered enought to be exhausted. Sesa Das, Director, Rama-giridhari Das - Executive Secretary said again and we never thought Hanumat Swami's is idea was very practical. This exceeded our expectations. It is a revolution in ISKCON education. They were so, so enthused that devotees from S. America came for each Session.

NOW they want to plan a SAS. We were thinking of end of January??? Especially of motivated leaders? What do you and everyone else think?

Hare Krisna Dear Gurudeva. Please accept my humble obeisances. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I hope you’re fine.

As you ask me two weeks ago, more or less. I’m writing what we have agreed with Jharikanda Goura Das about his service.

We have designated to Krisna Avatar Das prabhu s as Pujari’s Head. He is Brahmana for some years and he was worshiping in France, Brasil and India. Jharikanda Goura Das will be under Krisna Avatar’s authority  worshiping to Goura Nitai in Madrid. He'll go to do others services too.

This decision was took with Jharikanda Goura Das, and he’s seemed happy. We wait it’s the best for him and the Temple.

In the next letter I’m going to write you about me.

Thanks Gurudeva for your help.

Your humble servant, Dandava Das.

    HpS - ASA --- Jaya!  AGTSP.   Paoho. We are in a stupid situation where we don't knw what is going to happen next. Thus, of the four problems in life: eating, sleeping, mating and defending, the defending is the most powerful. As devotees we are always trying to solve this problem of knowing how to serve Krsna. Of course, we don't have to solve it for the next thirty years. Really it is nice to have a program for the next few months that is within the general ISKCON service of Srila Prabhupada. By doing that service we will get more knowledge of what service we want. We may get an idea of our deeper position in ISKCON and our mission for this entire life.

Very nice photos!!

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja.
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
All Glories to you!!
Please accept my humble obeisances to your feet.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BLog stuff.

I asked about the standard for gentleman's in Japa Joe and you said to me, I have to send my doubt by the blog. and a copy of standard for ladies:
Well, here we go...

ASA - Standard for Ladys

by Guy "Uncle" Gismo
President of the ASA Civil Deadman's Society
(rev. 2014 May 26)

1) No, mini-skirts, dresses should be no higher than mid-calf, and usually longer.
2) Only short term contact with the opposite sex for preaching purposes.
3) Should get married by 15-years old ideally but in Kali-yuga get advice from six good people about the sitution. Actually
best thing is to marry Krsna, the King of Vrndavana.
4) Don't talk with weak-minded Dudes in secluded places.
5) Don't bite people. Ask Radharana to ask Krsna and Balarama to protect you. Chant Hare Krsna and be happy.
6) Only listen to music, watch movies, read books that you would see with Srila Prabhupada.
7) Ignore all these rules if Krsna personally tells you to do so.

Thank you. We will try to follow this standard also. Please send your ideas to the Blog.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One more little thing, the Blog was have a search bar, where you can search by word and now have not. Is a shame, because with that, we can put a simple concept ("envy" "gratitude" like that) and can read what u answer about that. Sorry for ask, but it was usefull for me.


Quick report.
16x108 (or more) + 4 ok! 
finish NOI no exam. 
In my next personal letter I will answer all the question you made to me.
Thanks for be patient with me, my selfishness and foolishness have no limits but, by your mercy I can connect with my escence.Hare Krsna. DANDAVATS PRANAM


Thanks for your time and for engage me in service. jay SP!

HpS - ASA --- AGTSP paoho.
1. Monkey and Piggy suggest that you and maybe Candra-mukhi and anyone else should write a "Standard for Boys" for the ASA/ISKCON and they will edit it. (Buck the Butcher and Tom the Trampler)
2. The Web-page needs a Web-master, and team decision about Content. One groups is NIOS-Nashville, another is NIOS-Indological Studies. Our own NIOS work is really ASA right now. We can discuss it with the members here.

We will have to Publish this letter before we can see a full size copy of the picture. All we can see on this letters to answer section is small image. So, we will Publish it and that will send a copy to you and then we will add more thoughts here and Publish that edited version. You will get a second copy then...

.....  Looks more professional. That favors the Indological side. In the Menu bar on the right, after Archives I would add, Bookstall.

Other stuff like details for our local Rathayatra etc. we can put in as separate links in the advertising stuff we do.

Instead of Home I would put Reception Desk.

Your monkey looks like it is doing the Tango.

3. Send another Letter with "What Happened to the Blog Search Button" as the title and lets see if we can get Prahlada's interest?

Hare Krishna dear Gurudeva

Please, accept my humble obeisances
