Como está Ud.?
HpS AgtSP. Vea otros cartas. Haw! Haw! Hare!
Leo frecuentemente el boletín Kapi Dvaja y sigo sus actividades.
Aquí le escribe su discípulo Devarsi Narada das de Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Hoy estamos festejando Krishna Janmashtami y quería saludarlo a Ud. , y luego ir al festival del templo.
Quiero contarle que estoy organizando un programa mensual de kirtan en un centro de Yoga, en donde damos una introducción acerca de la filosofía del Bhakti Yoga a los invitados y también distribuimos prasadam
También en el templo de ISKCON Buenos Aires, yo junto a su discípulo Mandara Sakha das, estamos por comenzar un programa especial sobre canciones de los Vaisnavas Acaryas. Lo vamos a realizar un domingo al mes, luego de la fiesta dominical. Mandara Sakha ya habló con las autoridades y le dieron su aprobación para este evento.
HpS -- Comentario en carta a el. Es super.
Para todas estas actividades le pido sus bendiciones, como así cualquier sugerencia o instrucción , que pueda brindarme al respecto.
Le cuento también que estoy estudiando Licenciatura en música en la UNTREF, para especializarme sobre todo en producción musical integral.
HpS - Esperamos encontrando buen profesores y alumnos!
Estoy ofreciendo clases de Sitar, armonio y canto. Por ahora tengo un solo alumno de Sitar, que es muy bueno y que está interesando en la conciencia de Krishna. Yo le distribuí algunos libros.
En cuanto a mi sadhana, las rondas y los principios, bien; pero todo puede estar mejor, sin dudas.
Espero que Ud. se encuentre bien de salud.
Muchas gracias por leer mi carta
Happy Sri Krishna Janmasthami!!
Mis reverencias a Ud.

hare krishna gurudeva! How is it going?
HpS - AGTSP. paoho. Janma mrtya jara vyadhi. Birth, death, disease and old age. Our eyes, teeth, ears, stomach, knees, short term memory are all disturbed, but our spiritual life is ADVANCING. AGTSP.... and you. We got this letter before we left for Peru... and now finally catching up.
Here we are at the base in buenos aires argentina, experiencing a little the miseries of the body; flu and throat inflamed, but we can sing hare krishna hare rama!
We are trying to detach ourselves from the body, but when we are sick, it is difficult for us to maintain sadhana, it is our fallen condition. we hope to improve!
HpS - Do the best you can. That is enough.
this month we had a seminar of the madhurya kadambini of visvanath cakravarti thakura. It has been very good to know our position and how to keep advancing more towards Krishna!
we also had the visit of ss bhakti bhusana swami and it was very inspiring
I am striving to sing the minimum of 16 rounds before the srimad bhagavatam class and I have experienced a tangible change in my heart. a change in the way of thinking and acting. also during the day I can sing some more rounds depending on the services we have.
HpS - !!!! We try to do at least 17/day, but really chant while we are taking bath etc. Shoudl do 64-rounds worth of Maha-mantra each day. Sixteen on beads and the rest while we work.
We are always trying to push ourselves to do something new or something that helps us to occupy ourselves in more time of service. with a spiritual brother; devarsi narada das, we started a new program in the temple of buenos aires. Actually, this program was done years ago but I do not know why it was not done anymore. the program is called "vaisnava songs" and we choose 2 songs per program, this program is once a month, and with a projector we show the song, the meaning, and a video with prabhupada commenting it with subtitles in Spanish, and then we sing it. that way we enter the singer's mood. For me it is an honor and a very special service to remember such exalted personalities as narottama dasa thakura, bhaktivinoda thakura, etc. We will start this program in September, now we have not been able to do it for all the festivals. For me this is really very good, since I've been studying the songs and the program is a mixture of philosophy, devotion, expression in music and inspiration. songs like gouranga bolite habe, nitay pada kamala, are such deep and beautiful songs gurudeva! finally the programs are finished with a bit of kirtan, and the schedule is designed to finish all together singing for sri sri gaura nitay gaura arati and dance for your pleasure, and then share the prasada ..
HpS - We saw the program of a Janmastam that Srila Prabhupada celebrate in Radha Damodara temple before he came to the USA. There was reception of the Governor, two songs with explanation, appreciation by the Governor and then Prasad!
now we are in the chant [canto] 5, chapter 14 of the bhagavatam, the forest of material enjoyment, it is very strong, but necessary to open the eyes ...
Just on the basis of the bhagavatam, a question arose, suta goswami says that by regularly attending the bhagavatam classes and by rendering service to the pure devotee, everything that disturbs the heart is practically completely destroyed. The question is, does that "practically" mean that the heart is cleaned in practice? or "practically" refers to the fact that the heart is almost completely cleansed? If so, what would it take for the heart to cleanse itself completely?
HpS - That is a common question. I think it means that the major anarthas go away, but until the stage of Bhava some still remain. It is like washing the stool and urine off of gold but it still has alloys with other metal like tin. When it is heated to melting (Bhava) then those alloys are broken.
please accept my gurudeva bows, thank you very much for your time to respond even if you are always busy ... your servant mandara sakha das
HpS - Again, sorry we can't answer more letters while we are traveling. What is the news now?

hare krishna gurudeva! ¿cómo está?
aquí nosotros estamos en la base en buenos aires argentina, experimentando un poco las miserias del cuerpo; gripe y garganta inflamada, pero podemos cantar hare krishna hare rama!
estamos intentando desapegarnos del cuerpo, pero cuando estamos enfermos nos cuesta mantener el sadhana, es nuestra caída condición. esperamos mejorar!
este mes tuvimos un seminario del madhurya kadambini de visvanath cakravarti thakura. ha sido muy bueno para saber nuestra posición y cómo seguir avanzando más hacia krishna!
también tuvimos la visita de ss bhakti bhusana swami y fue muy inspirante
estoy esforzandome por cantar el mínimo de 16 rondas antes de la clase de srimad bhagavatam y he experimentado un cambio tangible en mi corazón. un cambio en la forma de pensar y de actuar. también durante el día puedo cantar algunas rondas más dependiendo de los servicios que tengamos.
siempre estamos intentando empujarnos para hacer algo nuevo o algo que ayude a ocuparnos en más tiempo de servicio. con un hermano espiritual; devarsi narada das, empezamos un nuevo programa en el templo de buenos aires. en realidad, este programa se hacía hace años atrás pero no se por qué no se hizo más. el programa se titula "canciones vaisnavas" y elegimos 2 canciones por programa, este programa es 1 vez al mes, y con un proyector mostramos la canción, el significado, y un video con prabhupada comentandolo con subtitulos al español, y luego la cantamos. de esa manera entramos en el humor del cantante. para mi es un honor y un servicio muy especial recordar a personalidades tan excelsas como narottama dasa thakura, bhaktivinoda thakura, etc. este programa lo iniciaremos en septiembre, ahora no hemos podido por todos los festivales. para mi realmente es muy bueno esto, ya que he estado estudiando las canciones y el programa es una mezcla entre filosofía, devoción, expresión en la música e inspiración. canciones como gouranga bolite habe, nitay pada kamala, son canciones tan profundas y bellas gurudeva! finalmente los programas los terminamos con un poco de kirtan, y está pensado el horario para terminar todos juntos cantando para sri sri gaura nitay el gaura arati y bailar para su placer, y luego compartir el prasada..
ahora estamos en el canto 5 capitulo 14 del bhagavatam, el bosque del disfrute material, es muy fuerte, pero necesario para abrir los ojos...
justamente en base al bhagavatam me surgió una pregunta suta goswami dice que por asistir regularmente a las clases de bhagavatam y por prestarle servicio al devoto puro, todo lo que perturba al corazón es destruído practicamente por completo. la pregunta es ¿ese "practicamente" se refiere a que el corazón se limpia en la practica? o ¿"practicamente" se refiere a que el corazón se limpia casi por completo? si así fuer, qué es lo que faltaría para que el corazón se limpie por completo?
por favor acepte mis reverencias gurudeva, muchas gracias por su tiempo para responder aunque este siempre ocupado... su sirviente mandara sakha das
¡Toda gloria a Srila Prabhupada!
Por favor, acepte mis humildes y respetuosas reverencias
HpS - ASA -- Sentimos digno ser pateados. Tratamos ser mas sincere.
Hare Krishna Maharaja Hanumatpresaka Swami:
Tuvimos este último sábado un espectacular namahatta en casa de Prabhu Janapavana y esposa Lavanya devi dasi, en le distrito de Magdalena del Mar. Una gran oportunidad familiar para recibir la asociación de los devotos.
Espero que esté muy bien.
Su sirviente

HpS - Era una drama? Que pasa con su servicio del BBT? ? ?
Hare Krishna Beloved Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada,
We had an intense month, we received at Sri Govardhan from october 29th to december 5th, HH Mahavisnu Swami with Harinam Ruci, HH Bhakti Gauravani Goswami, HG Srila Virabahu Prabhu and HH Dhanvantari Maharaja. So living here is much much better than living in Disneyland, but more challenging also!! Everybody appreciated our project so much!! Benedictions!!
Mahajana Prabhu moved to Spain with his family and left us and other devotee, Ekachakra Prabhu, the responsibility to lead the Yatra, with its two projects, EL Loft in the city and Sri Govardhan, our rural community. And also the National Board was renewed and Nanda Raj Prabhu and myself were selected to be part of it.
ASA - Jaya! We are little ants, but Krsna can give us STRENGTH.
We take this service seriously and with a little fear. Knowing that it could be dangerous for our spiritual life.
We had like six hours of meetings with HG Virabahu Prabhu. Very enlightening!! He told us his whole story as a GBC.
I remember when you quote SP " If you follow 4 principles and chant 16 good rounds, administration will be at the tip of your finger" Also i read Prithu Maharaja´s story in 4th canto of SB.
Besides we presented a project at the university to link food for life with med school. A very nice opportunity to preach. With Julieta my wife, we cooked for 30 professors at a meeting. Everybody appreciated the glories of Prasadam.
HpS - Hospital food was the worst I ever experienced in the world!! Save the doctors!
And then we preach to our patients, we distribute like 10 books per month.
So this is what is more natural to us.
Any advice?
HpS - Let us read the last letter.
Thank you Dear Gurudeva!!
at your lotus feet,
Nikunja Bihari das.
Hare Krishna Beloved Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances,
All glories to Srila Prabhupada,
We are studying Bhakti Sastri with a few devotees from argentina, we gather online on sunday morning. Very nice disscusions. We use your study guides, generously ceded By HG Laksman Agraja Prabhu.
Also we are organizing lectures at Sri Govardhan. Now we are reading third canto, chapter 5, Vidura´s talks with Maitreya during the week, and on Sunday CC, we are on Adi, chapter 2. On January we want to start on saturday mornings a Pada Padma study using your study guides.
We want to take seriously the study of SP books.
I saw pictures of your book Twirl your beads, we will try to get it from Abhiram Thakur Prabhu (if Prabhuji reads this letter i bow down to his feet for such a great service he has done and is doing to push this Art and the Sacred program, hope we can gather a team to present this program in Argentina also). Congratulations to Srinath Krishna and Radhika Raman Prabhus for editing this nice book.
I have the idea of one day publish as a book your DTCs, they are so so great, a combination of wisdom and art, is like your japa drawing!! Do you think is a good idea?
HpS - I don't know???? Of course, always illuminating Srila Prabhupada's books and the Kirtan he recommends.
If we read then BG 10.8-11 we will get intelligence how to move ahead. Each step is eternal!!
So much things we can do, but better to chant good rounds!!
So much wisdom, and adventures pouring down from the Parampara!!
Thank you so much Gurudeva!!
At your Lotus feet,
Your silly student,
Nikunja Bihari das.
HpS - ASA ---- H A R E KRSNA!!!!!!!!!
