Hare Krishna!

Please accept my humble obeisances!

All glories to you!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Hare Krishna Maharaja,

Thanks so much for sharing about the state parks. I'm here at Finger Lakes State park, it's a beautiful place to chant and read.

I was going to go on a Japa walk, but then my camping neighbor saw me and asked if I was Buddhist. We got to talking and he said that he read Bhagavad Gita As it is!

I gave him a copy of "If attacked I'll chant Hare Krishna", and a temple song book. we read from Srimad Bhagavatam and Light of the Bhagavata!

It was really beautiful to show the pictures from the LOB in the middle of a forest with all the birds chirping.

ASA - "Chir Ping" 🐦 . . 🐦

I thought of you when the page turned to the picture of the renounced monk. And then I also remembered the LOB seminar in Boise.

HpS - Wonder Filled Book!! 😆

I guess I just wanted to say thanks for everything. I appreciate you so much and it's really beautiful out here!!

Hare Krishna!!

Part Two

I'm here at the RVC [Rupa-anuga Vedic College] and I had a conversation about the training program.

They are sleeping from 9p-3am. (So this is kinda late for the "get up early and get your rounds done" program...) (what do you think??)

ASA - No, that is fine. Get your rounds done early can be before Mangala arati, before breakfast, before 10AM, 13-before breakfast . . .

Then a full morning program and other programs during the day.

The focus here is teamwork and chanting during the brahma murhurta, and they have an amazing program of reading, book distribution, and Harinam every day!

HpS/ASA - Super!

This program is so blissed out!! It's the spiritual world!!!!

ASA - Discussed enrolling?

Your servant,

Jaya Hari Das

ASA - More!

Hari bol, Guru maharaja, AGTSP please accept my humble obeisances.

Now I am in Argentina (Bhakti Sashtri), it has been somewhat difficult to adapt to the rhythm and especially to the small details that living in an asrama has (such as sleep close to some one that it is common for others to snore and not being able to sleep well all night) or the typical problems that have a bathroom when it is shared by more than 4 people, but other than that the classes and the place are lovely,

ASA - !

Maharaja Dhanvantari Swami gives some very good classes on the Bhagavad-Gita, we are now in Cordova with Devaki and Mitravinda who have been very good hosts. Well, I've also been singing my 16 good rounds (although sometimes it's kind of complicated) and following the 4 principles.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja.

May health be with you and without much more to add.

AGTSP and please accept my humble obeisances again :D. 

HpS - Thank you 1,000,000 times for sending this news. Did you meet with Deva-vrata and Mataji and others in Cordoba?

My respects to Maharaja.

Yes, ashrama life is challenging, but it is easy in that you are carried along without any effort in following the standard principles, no?

HpS - ASA --- AgtSP. Thank you. We hope you get partners for these plans, and your plans develop in terms of the Hollywood Directors, or PhD mentors et all that you get.

First, let us know what are the parameters for the PhD recommendation letter.

Hare Krsna Maharaj! And welcome back to Tennessee area, Hari Bol!

Please accept my humble obeisances 🙏

All glories to Sri Guru and Gauranga,

All glories to Srila Prabhupad 🙏

It was nice to have your association at Nrsimhadev Caturdasi program Saturday 🙏 Pravine Prabhu was real happy to meet you.

HpS = We felt bad that there was not so much time to associate more with devotees, especially you.

I'm doing some book distribution and meeting people who are interested in murfreesboro area, also in Nashville some young people have started chanting. They visited Murari Sevaka with me a number of times.

ASA - Maybe we can visit Murari with you also.

Yes, Maharaj, so the last letter I mentioned at Murari Sevaka there is Mitravinda Mataji and her three daughters who stay at Murari Sevaka.

Jvarajit Prabhu is a Prabhupad disciple who visits and helps them with cooking for the deities each week also.

Mitravinda Mataji was asking if you would like to visit Nitai Gauracandra's temple sometime, Murari Sevaka. I could take you with Pravine Prabhu also on a weekend if you would like. If you wanted to give a class or just visit possibly, maybe our murfreesboro devotees could join too?

HpS - As we said, it seems like a possibility, but right now we are just getting this ashrama in The Boro going. It is doing pretty well.

What dates would be good for others?

These are just a few thoughts, just trying to serve Krsna's devotees. Hare Krsna Maharaj 🙏😊

TlgaSP! Esta carta es vacio!!!!!

Noticas de New Govardhana. Todos!

Hare Krsna beloved Gurudeva AGTSP PAMHO

You once told me that in a fire we have to rescue the photos before tthe money

JAYA Gurudeva 🌝

HpS - Many people in the fire storm in San Francisco reported making this decision.

Atreya Rsi Das had a house with four others on a hill right in the path of the wall of fire. I asked him if he grabbed his deities or his money.

He said, "Neither one. I grabbed my ass (trasero) and ran!"
