Hare Krishna querido Gurumaharaja.

Por favor acepte nuestras respetuosas reverencias.

¡Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

Continuando con nuestros reportes, tenemos una lista de devotos que están entusiastas en dirigir el kirtan los días lunes, 7:00 pm. 

Nos pareció prudente hacerle conocer a Usted y los miembros de ASA para que por favor nos diga si hay algo que se debe mejorar en el servicio, las instrucciones del maestro espiritual son las bendiciones para el discípulo. 

El kirtan dura 15 minutos. 

También aprovecho en preguntarle si FEP online se mantendrá durante su estadía en Perú en donde habrá devotos locales con Usted. Disculpe por favor por preguntar con tanto tiempo de anticipación.

Lunes por mes:

Primer: Jiyada Nrisimha das y bhakta Damián 

Segundo: Mitravinda dd y ladies ASA 

Tercer: Gandarva das e Indira Sakti dd

Cuarto: Parama Karuna das y Radharani Gopi dd

Gurumaharaja muchas gracias por las oportunidades de servicio que mantienen nuestra conciencia purificada por servir al Señor Supremo Sri krishna y a sus devotos. 

Vuestra eterna aspirante a sirviente

Asta Sakhi dd 

HpS - ASA --- AgtSP!!! So, sorry we have been slow in responding. We are writing in Robot English so that we think "translate.google.com" will be able to translate clearly. Your decisions about Kirtan leaders of the Monday FEP seems fine to us.

I think we can maintain the same program on 2nd and 9th of August at 6.30PM Boise time. That is 7.30PM Nashville and Lima time. Advantage is that Murari Das from Spain is there. We plan to join the program with him on August 2nd. Kirtan and arati for Radha Banki-bihari are at 6.30PM and after that we can talk about Krsna, devotional service and devotees in Spanish in the Temple.

We should have a lot of fun.

Go on walks to the river together.

Meet people and distribute books while we are there.

Got your request for a gotmeeting teleconference. We can do that.

Hope your best use of a bad baragain in using your robot, body, is going on. She you all soon in Goloka, Nabadvipa, ISKCON.

"¡oh, tú, el de los poderosos brazos!" https://vedabase.io/es/library/bg/2/26/

Hare Krishna Gurudeva,

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

In reply to the previous post about podcasts

https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/12537/

This letter was left unfinished and while at work the kids had seized my computer and probably sent it. Thank you for your feedback.

Yes, I have been a kind of stranger and there's a story to it. After family life got more intense and demanding I couldn't maintain practice and this gave me idea of losing rights to proper disciple guru connection.

HpS - Maybe as Diksa guru, but reason for even more intense relationship as Siksa-guru, Patha-pradarhika Guru.... The Guru who gives us instructions how to get out of the jungle and get on the path!

Plus, distance and technology restricts my sense of how to relate to you.

HpS - Henry James, the Nobel Laureate said that he thought letters were the highest form of literature.

I didn't foresee this many years ago when deciding on asking initiation. There are many things i didn't think of at the time, and it was a passionate thing in a way. So i've had doubt whether i did the right thing of becoming your disciple. I have an honest heart but my mind is, well, mostly foolish and impetuous and also dull.

ASA- Well, we have one, doubt. It seems that it could not have been too passionate. You were following the process for one year before you took initiation, so there was time for practically clear evaluation.

• Is there a God?
• Has He manifest Himself as Sri Krsna, Lord Caitanya?
• If I serve Him will my family, social, physical, psychological necessities all be satisfied in the best possible way?
• What does He want?
• 1728 maha mantras on beads and 4-principles strictly?
• How can I do this?
• 🤔

And as usual things picked up again. . .

🐷 🐵 ASA - Ahh! We were right! We were right!

. . . . and i started connecting to you through prayer and hearing your Daksha talks and now we're here. From the Monks podcast i finally realized that in my approach of presenting KC with others, i share a lot of your mood. A recent job oriented psychology test showed i'm mostly artistic and analytically oriented.

One point i appreciated especially from the Shakespeare podcast was your description of the recurring theme in drama of becoming dhira. For me as a sadhaka a necessary basis for progressing to a next level in spiritual life. It is happening, but it's not that deep yet.

HpS - Deep Dhira comes when you have to be a Manjari follower of our Radha rani and see Krsna flirting with another girl!

Thank you Maharaja.

Hope you are doing well in all respects.

Your servant,

Raghava Pandit das

PS. Greetings from cat Sergei.

HpS - Thank you!!! We feel that you may be thinking of us from too much of a Vapu perspective. As Diksa guru we are just focused on the formal vows. As any service we can do as Siksa guru it is more how we can help you connect your Sankirtan service to Srila Prabhupada. For that you may have many prominent Siksa gurus. We may not be very prominent at all!

Hey you got a cat, but what about your wife and children.??.

Dear Maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP!

We have been working with Govardhan Eco Village to create a university level curriculum for classical dance (booklet attached).

You also asked us to share here some of the work we've been doing with them, perhaps to start a discussion here and connect with other devotees working in this area 🙏. For your pleasure we have attached those documents here.

Our latest choreographic work on Chapter 6 of Bhagavad Gita: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8zAvw5Fvxw&t=555s

(13:00).

We had only 1 month to put this assignment/project together, both difficult and fun. 😥

😀

Please bless us and guide us. This endeavor is a fruit of the seed you have planted and watered in our hearts since childhood. We are so so blessed to have been bestowed some service in our insignificant life __/\o__.

Your aspiring servant,

Shatakshi

ASA - Thank you for this excellent report. Maybe Paramakaruna Das, Radha-prati-japa Devi Dasi will do likewise. The video links are essential.

https://www.learnsanskrit.cc, says that zatAkSI means night! You will teach us to understand BG by dancing and deliver us from the darkness of night? Then by understanding SB by dance we will be qualified to meet Krsna for the Rasa-lila at night?!

BG is a great ocean of family conflict. It shows us that even if those conflicts come to the most extreme limit we can resolve them so that everyone is maximum happy.

7/14/2021 - Caitanya-carana Das: Maharaj, Pranam. Here is a comment on our podcast that you might want to see.

Still Born

Thank you for an interesting discussion. I'm wondering whether you feel that there is the potential in Jung's conception of human psychology for the kind of eruption of higher consciousness that we find depicted in our own tradition in the Rasa Dance and the Love of the Gopis, for example? Doesn't the kind of break-through in the human psyche that we call 'self-realization' or Krishna Prema go past Jung's archetypal understanding? It's been a long time since I read Jung, but now I'm wondering whether anything in the psychological process that he envisioned is indeed helpful to us in advancing toward our goals?

Many thanks.

Hare Krishna.

Just to clarify, Bhakti Vinod Thakur said that all religions (and this includes systems of metapsychology such as Jungian psychology?) are essentially Vaishnava. Some are steps up to it, while others are distortions of it. Which one is Jung? Its interesting that BVT had only these two categories i.e. he didn't allow for anything to be unrelated altogether!

HpS - ASA -- Esteemed Mr. Still Born. Let us apologize for being slow to reply to your question. It is very nice.

We have done some depth reading of Jung and associated with members of the current community, but that has led us to the conclusion that we need, and are trying, to get a guide to Jung's experiences and conclusions in more depth.

I think we expressed our opinion in the Pod cast, I don't remember for sure, but as far as we could analyze Prof. Jung's comprehension of the Absolute Truth it comes up to direct experience of Hiranya gabha conception of the Lord, above Virata rup and below Param-atma.

Of course, looking at the garden through a surrounding fence is much better than hearing descriptions from a block away.

For our humble comprehension we see tremendous courage, honesty and sincerity in Jung's character. Maybe.... there is some pride that would turn his efforts into an attempt to distort the truth rather than move quickly toward the next step.

These are things would want to know as they are manifest in the character of his actual followers.

I don't see that he has any problem with conjugal relations in transcendence. The archetypes can exist as statues, words, mental images, comprehensions (attitudes), Laksmis, Dvaraka Queens et al, no?

Please contact us though our web page: www.JayaRama.US and join this investigation for the actual need of modern society!

Hare Krsna dear Gurudeva

Please accept our sincere obeisances

Jay Srila Prabhupada!!

I am writing to you hoping that you are in very good health. Our prayers are always with you.

HpS - Thank you. AgtSP!!!!! ..... paoho .... Our health is O.K. We just have limited energy and we are trying to work for everyone's best interest in the best way we can. Thank you for your determination and tolerance. I think you must have a lot of help from your good wife?!

I tell you with joy that a Bhakti Vaibhava program is being organized based in ISKCON La Paz, being the administrator-examiner Mitravinda dd (currently representative of the ministry in Brazil and devotee with vast educational experience in the service of Dhanvantari Swami) and being LAD and Om Kesavaya prabhu official instructors. My role is limited to supporting coordination, especially in the first part of the process in which the file has to be prepared for BoEx approval. I believe that we must be prepared to receive those BS students who wish to continue with their studies. May Lord Jagannatha inspire and drive us always.

On the other hand, I have a question to ask you. I was listening to Caitanya Charan prabhu's interview with you last Tuesday. It is very interesting to learn to identify certain patterns present in the Gita resounding in other universal texts. You call archetypes that set of signs that characterize certain individuals and that represent the original paradigm of thought and behavior. Where do these archetypes come from? How can they be common to Hamlet and Arjuna? Is doubt human or divine? How are they related to rasa?

Thanks in advance for your reply

Gandharva das

HpS - Wonderful. Understand the student's natures and motives for studying and help them develop their service wonderfully. Expect a revolution.

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/2/5/37/

Here is first time we know how the Priest/Magician, King, Merchant, Artesian/Laborer and described as part of the Virata Rupa. The VR is not just sensuous elements, it is also roles and persona that we can use, no?

https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/3/14/ and

https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/3/15/ also describe the details of the Varna ashrama archetypes, no?

Then, as you suggest, there is an analysis of Servant, Friend, Parent, Lover in the Nectar of Devotion etc. It is a big topic and hard to write in detail, yet we think we can clarify these things more and more until our hearts are clear and we can use these material elements for Krsna.

You will play Dhrstarastra in your next life?

For Krsna!!

I can play Sakuni??

😎 Let the games begin! 😎

Hare Krsna querido Gurumaharaja

Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias.

¡Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada!

¡ Todas las glorias a Sri Caitanya Mahaprabu y si glorioso movimiento de sankirtana!

El día de ayer prabhu Sankirtana se reunió con los aspirantes:

Iniciación Harinama

Marco Antonio Galván Torres

Marina Xihuitl Rendón González

Haidee Natyelli Coronel Garza

Segunda iniciación

Laghubhagavatamrta das

Arya Srestha das

Para conocer más de ellos, sus retos e intereses y ponerse a disposición para aconsejarlos, prabhu es un devoto de muchos años, observa bien su sadhana y estudio de las escrituras en el templo así que puede ser un buen siksha si los devotos lo desean. También recibió las referencias del encargado de servicios.

Respecto a los requisitos extras para iniciación que no son solicitados oficialmente el templo está evaluando con el GBC de la zona por los hechos de denuncias y violencia al templo ocurridos este año, sin embargo hay requisitos extras que si podrían aplicarse a quienes deseen vivir en el templo y no a los que desean tomar iniciación, en cuanto a pedir un perfil psicológico prabhu Sankirtana mencionó que en este caso no lo ve necesario porque ya conocen a los aspirantes.

Se les hizo el recordatorio que escriban al blog, que participen dentro de sus capacidades de uso de internet a los programas de ASA, programas en casa o en el templo si lo desean.

Prabhu Sankirtana tiene buenos recuerdos de usted y desea comunicarse en algún momento.

Es importante mencionar que la lista mencionada aún no tienen la recomendación, seguramente en estos días darán una respuesta.

Su eterna aspirante a sirviente

Asta Sakhi dd.

HpS - O.K.

Hay otros Diksa gurus visitando al templo?

Ha pasado conflictos en terminos del edificio, pero hay un comunidad en buen comprehension de uno a otro en terminos de administracion y esfuerzas de Sankirtan?
