New Raman Reti- Alachua Florida

Hare Krishna Dearest Maharaj,

Paoho! AGTSP!

Yesterday, we celebrated Snana Yatra. Here are some photos below!


HpS/ASA - Srila Prabhupada is fighting impersonalism. Here we have God with a form and frock!

A smile that makes socks rock!

This movement is becoming the most powerful community in the world!!!

Catch the wave.

Find our position!!!

MUY IMPORTANTE: permanencia en NVM YASODA

Hare Krishna, Gurumaharaja 🙏🏻

Por favor acepte mis reverencias 🙏🏻

Jay Srila Prabhupada 🙏🏻


Dear Gurumaharaja, the reason for my letter is because our stay in New Vrajamandala is becoming increasingly difficult. The phrase the authorities always tell us, "THERE IS NO PLACE FOR GRIHASTRAS HERE," is becoming more and more true in our daily lives. I struggled and endured until I couldn't take it anymore. We wrote a letter to the community, formalizing what everyone in NVM knows: that we live in a space that is too small (we have to take out the mattress to open the door) and that it used to be a garbage dump. We cleaned it up.

I am the daughter of a lawyer; I explained my case and supported it. Beforehand, I asked seven brahmanas, as you once told me; I asked seven families who lived and still live here. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that it's best to leave this place.

I'm already married; I can't always live in the house of my spiritual family. Prabhupada says that the grihastras should contribute to the temple, .. my husband and I should not continue living off Iskcon.

We do not want to be a burden or a nuisance to anyone (although the letter affected several of the administrative board) I repeat: I am the daughter of a good lawyer, my father taught me to tell the truth to defend what is right.

The administration no longer has normal spaces for us to live, and we accept it. It is time to go out into the world and work.

My husband and I are grateful but it is now necessary to leave.


HOWEVER I made it very clear that our commitment to supporting the hostel service is to maintain the only source of income for NVM and my husband maintains his service taking care of the 92-year-old devotee who gave and gives everything to the NVM rural project.


In short, WE WILL NOT LEAVE THE SERVICE BUT WE WILL LOOK FOR A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE OUTSIDE OF NVM 🙏🏻

**Le envío una copia de la carta que envié a la comunidad

En medio de Troya, su discípula de tercera clase Yasoda Devi Dasi

** Espero poder volver a verlo en NVM...yo no dejo de pensar en usted siempre es mi refugio espiritual Gurumaharaja 🙏🏻


HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna. Thank you for this news. We guess you are back in NVM from India.

What you describe sounds accurate. We guess your husband is of the same mind.

We talked with the Brahmana leaders of the Houston community, Temple President and authorities, State and Federal government and now we plan to be based in Houston until Janmastami.

If things really fall apart the railroad track in one block away and we can just leave all shelter and start walking East along the track toward Braja!

Thank you!!

Sankirtan Online - PMD

Hare Krishna Gurudeva

PAMHO - AGTSP


I am writing to you after listening to your class on Sunday, March 2, in which you reminded us to send a sankirtan report.


The truth is that my attempt to preach through social media is bearing fruit. I have been sending reflections on Krishna consciousness via WhatsApp for approximately 2 years, with the idea of ​​providing support to the people I meet in sankirtan.


In Cabildo, almost no one takes books with them when I do sankirtan, so on any occasion that I go outside this city, I take books and distribute them.


I continue to do programs at home, but not as constant as before, and I also continue to spiritually accompany people interested in Krishna consciousness in this city.


A year ago I began to create public content on social media on Instagram, and 3 months ago on Tik Tok. Applying the knowledge I learned in the digital marketing career I studied.


On these platforms I share “lightweight”, entertaining and general content. But for those who are really interested, I send them the Krishna consciousness reflections via WhatsApp.


I have not distributed many physical books, but when people ask me for digital books, I send them the link to The Science of Self-Realization from vedabase.io. (We could have more books like that on that website)


It is amazing what can be achieved with this service and, when I am allowed, I would like to help other devotees in the community to echo what I have done.


Several people are chanting the Maha Mantra as a result of this effort, some are encouraged to visit the temple, others ask how to become a monk and one girl in particular wants to take spiritual initiation.


Preaching is my life, it is what pleases my heart the most.


Please your blessings to continue sharing Krishna consciousness through social media and other means.


Your Servant

Piyari Mohan das


HpS/ASA - Thank, agtSP, you. Srila Prabhupada talks about going preaching door to door, but in the modern world that seems to be going address to address on social media!

The Ramayana and Mahabharata by Krsna Dharma on Vedabase.Io might also be good for new comers, no?

He puts in philosophy in such a natural way!



How to Preach

3 months, 2 weeks ago by hps in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

[3/7/2025 5:32 PM] Deva-dharma Das: TgSP Pamhr Hare Krishna Maharaja 

En un mes recibí dos invitaciones para dar clases de BG en templo y en un programa de congregación. Hoy me invitaron a hacer puja para un programa de congregación. A las tres respondí que no estoy preparado. No me siento entrenado. Me falta más confianza.

También recibí la invitación para jugar soccer con amigos del colegio 

Debo empezar ya a entrenar y aprender a hacer puja, a aprender a dar clases? No tengo idea de cómo empezar.

Por favor tiene un comentario? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Mi experiencia máxima en lo que es predicar ha sido bhakti vriksha

[3/7/2025 5:32 PM] Deva dharma Das: TgSP Pamhr Hare Krishna Maharaja

In one month I received two invitations to teach BG classes in temple and in a congregational program. Today I was invited to do puja for a congregational program. After three I replied that I am not ready. I don't feel trained. I lack more confidence.

I also received the invitation to play soccer with friends from school

Should I start training now and learn to do puja, learn to teach classes? I have no idea how to start.

Please have a comment? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

My greatest experience in preaching has been bhakti vriksha


HpS/ASA - AgtSP. paoho. First, we are trying to help everyone by giving them Bhakti yoga based upon our personal practice and Srila Prabhupada's books.

If we are not chanting 16 nice rounds and following four principles strictly, then we should work on that.

Then, we can give classes and preach by knowing the audience. Ask the organizers about who they are. What is their level of development?

Are they just coming for the first time: Adau sraddha?

Do they understand stand the basic ideas of Bhagavad-gita, reincarnation? Karma? How God incarnates and is present through His energies?

What is the process and different levels of development of Bhakti yoga?

Ask someone else to join you in organizing and presenting the classes.

Just read NoI from the beginning to the students. Answer any questions and if you can't then try to go to an authority with them.

O.K.?

Thank you for the letter and here is a general report

Hare Krishna Gurumaharaja, please accept our obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! 


Thank you so much for this wonderful letter and these illustrations. The Alfred North Whitehead quote is something I want to remember everyday. So grateful to have you in our lives. And we feel very fortunate to have you approve/bless Madhavi’s name as well and to read your kind words for her in the letter. 


HpS/ASA - Tom Brown, Monkey, agtSP, does most of the handwritten letters! 🐵


The grand plan is to keep Radha Bankibhihari happy and taken care of. Make friends and good association here. Do this and do it fully until another opportunity comes on its own accord. And then someday maybe go on tour again but this time with devotees and yes bring the Lordships with us! 


HpS - Super! Prabhupada recommended Gaura Nitai for traveling.


Anadi will be home schooling Yamuna and Madhavi with Mother Arudha’s books and her personal guidance. 


HpS - Super. If it happens, a nice step is Collective Home Schooling, where up to five families work together to have one or people be full time teachers.


I’ve been asked to take over the temple president role here and have been talking with Radhika Ramana Prabhu quite a bit. Not a huge change because Anadi and I have essentially been sharing that responsibility for a few years now but still it feels like a big weight and a great challenge. I’ve been laughing with Krishna about it and have had some arguments too. I just never could imagine that I would have a responsibility like this. 


HpS/ASA - Get everything written down by the principal participants. Fix it for a certain time eg. six months, one year, then review the contract after that time? Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.


Going to have our second movie night at the temple in March. Going to show Brother Sun Sister Moon a movie about Saint Francis. Then we will start showing the Diary of A Traveling Creature movies each month starting in April. 


HpS/ASA - What night? Friday night?


I would like to visit you in Houston in the Spring. Is that okay?


HpS - Our plan is to get ready to board the airplane to Vaikuntha (hell) with notice of one breath. 78-year old body!!! but general consensus is that is practical to plan being based in Houston ISKCON until Janmasatami = August.


11-18 March = Nashville. Especially talking about visiting again around Janmastami time for a big North American festival in Nashville ISKCON.


Always happy to have your corporal association.


Been listening to the SB classes in Houston almost everyday and corresponding with Jaya Hari Prabhu so I’ve been receiving lots of mercy in that regard and it’s been empowering projects here in Boise. I eagerly await your classes each week and they inspire our Krishna Lounge talks and everything else. 


Thank you, Gurumaharaja! Oh and thank you for the donation🙏🏻


Your aspiring servant, 

Nitisara Das 


P.S. here is an animation/puppet show that someone made for a song of mine. The song is about Love in separation with God. He wants to keep working with me so as I develop my own Sankirtan I can engage him in more krishna consciousness subject matter.

HpS - We will look at it a little later!!!

Now... 4.10PM... and packing up to go to the Temple by 4.30PM to be available for and Sadhu sanga, then 6-6.40PM make the Sunday Love Feast lecture presentation.

As usual, www.youtube.com (ISKCON Houston).

Thank you!!!

Respects to everyone!!

Krsna has a career plan for all of us, no?

Maybe over several lifetimes!

Who might you be in the Mahabharata in you next life???

Where are you my beloved son of Nanda?

Please, beloved and remembered Gurumaharaja, accept my obeisances to the dust of His feet of lotus 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌷🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷🌹🌺


I have never sung publicly. But I have made some songs to Krishna, for several years now and I would like to start sharing them on my Youtube channel.


Gopal likes them very much and I think that if at some point I leave the body, He can continue singing them and be inspired by Krishna consciousness.


I have given a tone to some of the Arcayas' songs, like this beautiful poem by Srila Rupa Goswami that I share with you here:



https://youtu.be/uIplUWpT608?si=YpOrKvzkljH85IVv


I am still perplexed with my dance to Sri Nityananda.. I don't know if I pleased him or not? ...I remember Lord Brahma when he offers prayers to Sri Krsna and he doesn't know if he pleased him or not? .. Krsna didn't respond at the end.. He just played his sweet flute 😊


Last night I saw you in a wonderful dream. I was in Manipur and I was talking to a Manipuri dancer who told me that she went to Peru and was happy to see the Peruvian devotees so united to do their service. And you were there and then you weren't there. There was a big monkey that was passing by laughing and suddenly I saw your face Gurudev..! inside the monkey's face.. I couldn't believe it!! And you were extremely happy, with a beautiful smile!


Because of the dream where the devil was with your face, last time, I'm not worried, I know that it will go away with the maha mantra.. I think that the less importance we give it, the faster it goes away... Can you recommend something to me please? It's good to have you here Gurudev to confirm these things.


I pray to Krsba that I may understand His instructions Gurumaharaja and carry them out with soul, body, mind and words.


But even though I don't chant publicly, I go out into the streets every day and give Vedabase.com to many people. I am always excited to do this sankirtan and distribute the chanting of Srila Prabhupada ki jay!


Here I share some gems that Franco spontaneously made for Krsna Balarama!


I was trying out the camera on this blog and I see that you can also send a video. Would you like me to send you a video of me singing a minute of my japa here?


I'm also going a little blind... as Gopal says, let's go to Goloka!👏👏👏😅😂❤🌷🙏


All this foolish J.P Radha dd. wants is to please you Gurudeva, thank you for your time and adorable Self.


Trying to serve you eternally:

J.P. Radha dd


HpS//ASA - We are going a lot blind. GUess we will all be seeing KRSNA by reawakening our insight! That is very good.

I think that your dance, music, media is great.

The more you get out and share it, the more you will understand how to format it?

Any Sankirtan partners in Cordoba?
