As of every two weeks:

* Bulletin is now upload on Facebook (English & Spanish), it is also in Google Groups (English & Spanish) as listed at: http://www.jayarama.us/hello.htm

Hare Krishna!!! I hope you are doing ok. I pray everyday for that.

I read about all your health problems and You inspire me to continue on this path despite health problems.

My health is ok. Still I can do my sadhana. My family is ok . My niece (Aitana) is doing great, she is very smart.

Things at school ended pretty well. New projects for next year with the 9th grade. I just signed up for a Waldorf course for teenagers. Planning training trips to Chile, Argentina and perhaps Germany.

I really appreciate and thank you for doing this bulletin.

Thank you so much.

In 14888 ,HH asked us "What do you think of Ganesha?"

Ganesha- we used to think about him, as he is good of wisdom. He was our original Istha Deva.

Sanskrit break it as-- Gana + Ishha . Lord of the Ganas, or supreme among Ganas.

He has very interesting history.

In Indian Cartoon Industry following is the popularity order Hanuman, Krishna,  Ganesha.

In Maratha Empire kings used to have Ganesh in Background of their throne.

In Indian state of Maharashtra, Ganesh ji is worshipped as owner of the complete land.

In Brahma Samhita, Ganesh ji derives power from feet of Narsingh Dev ji.

Smartest Ganesh ji did very smart thing , he circumabulated around his parents, that is considered to circumbulation of the world.

His carrier is Mouse.

HpS - Rat?? Gana pati! NOD etc indicates that he has Vaikuntha form as well as material form.

BS indicates that he keeps Lord Nrsmhadevas feet on the two lumps on the front fo his head to remove all obstacles.!

Thank you!!!!

Dr. Samaresha!

Family success!

Realizing eternal form of service!

Dear Maharaja,

Namaste! Sadar Pranams! Hare bol!

What is your understanding of remembering Krishna all the time? I wrote an article in remembering Krishna all the time. Hopefully, you like it.

Remembering Krishna: Beyond Mental Focus

Within the Bhakti tradition, particularly in Iskcon, one of the most cherished instructions is to "always remember Krishna." But what does this truly mean? Many associate it with the dedicated chanting of Haridas Thakur, who devoted over 20 hours a day to this practice. While his dedication inspires awe, is such constant mental focus feasible for everyone?

Instead of solely focusing on the mind, I propose ...

HpS - Hare Krsna. AgtSP. Paoho. We understand as it is described in https://vedabase.io/en/library/noi/8/

is pretty detailed and precise,no??

Hare Krsna Gurudev

HpS/ASA - Thank, agtSP, you! We don't get any notification when someone applies. We blocked it because we were afraid that someone was hacking the links.

We looked and found abount five applications.

We approved you and Lalita Gopi [?] and Lalita madhava and disapproved, Satan [no joke] and on Sunil who we didn't recognize. Hope tells us who he is and trys again.

Hare Kṛṣṇa Gurvdeva

Por favor acepte mis reverencias

Al escribir esta carta estoy desobedeciendo a mi hermano mayor Akincana Kṛṣṇa Dāsa, su discípulo iniciado, como ya le había mencionado en una carta anterior lo lleve a Jalisco (México) con su familia porque está muy enfermo, el no ha querido que nadie se entere de su estado y me pidió discreción, pero no puedo hacerlo Mahārāja, es la tercera vez que lo internan en el hospital en el transcurso de un mes, ahora se complicó con hongos en los pulmones, aunque él no quiere que nadie sepa, creo que UD. y nuestros hermanos Vaiṣṇavas son los indicados para orar a Śrī Kṛṣṇa por Él, para que lo que elija Kṛṣṇa le resulte favorable, nadie mejor que UD para orar por mi hermano.

Estoy tratando de hacer un mejor Sadhana por él.

Ojalá los Devotos reunidos puedan orar también por él.

Todas las Glorias Mahārāja.

Jaya Śrīla Prabhupāda

Hare Kṛṣṇa Gurvdeva

Please accept my obeisances

By writing this letter I am disobeying my older brother Akincana Kṛṣṇa Dāsa, your initiated disciple, as I had already mentioned in a previous letter, I took him to Jalisco (Mexico) with his family because he is very sick,

HpS - We haven't read that in a previous letter. Maybe we haven't read it yet.

He did not want anyone to find out of his condition and asked me for discretion, but I cannot do it Mahārāja, it is the third time that he has been admitted to the hospital in the course of a month, now he has complications with fungus in the lungs, although he does not want anyone to know, I think YOU and our Vaiṣṇava brothers are the ones indicated to pray to Śrī Kṛṣṇa for Him, so that whatever Kṛṣṇa chooses will be favorable to Him. There is no one better than YOU to pray for my brother.

I am trying to do better Sadhana for him.

Hopefully the gathered Devotees can also pray for him.

All Glories Mahārāja.

Jaya Srila Prabhupada

HpS - Thank you. We can take this as Krsna's instruction to pray for him. Of course, we pray that he can take full advantage of this disease that Krsna is sending him to advance in his service to Goloka Radha-Krsna.

Thank you for informing us.

If you are in contact with him. Please tell to keep us informed of his situation as much as he can.

We love him very much, as do many people, and always want him to be healthy to continue his wonderful Sankirtan!!!

Thank you.

¡Hare Krsna!

Querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte nuestras humildes reverencias

Todas las Glorias sean a nuestro Fundador-Acarya, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Todas las Glorias a la trascendental biblioteca Bhaktivedanta y Todas las glorias sean a usted que nos ocupa en esta orquesta trascendental.

Orando a nuestras Señorías porque le otorguen plena protección. Escribo como parte del equipo ASA Carnaval. Le agradecemos por llevarnos en línea cada FMS. Jaya Hari Prabhu y Unmada-vidhayini dd mataji han compartido con todos nosotros fotos y videos de su visita a Houston.

Gurudeva, en el más reciente Kapi Dhvaja usted mencionó “Hope to start working on ASA Encyclopedia with The Carnival.” Por favor, háganos saber ¿de qué manera podemos participar?

HpS - Can you, agtSP, download the current edition of the Encyclopedia at: https://www.jayarama.us/archives/asa-e.docx and then see if you can open it and understand how it is organized?

Thank you.

Por otra parte, hemos leído la actualización del calendario en https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/14513/ Por favor permítanos consultarle:

Respecto al 17 de diciembre - Aniversario harinama y sannyasa diksa de SS HpSwami. ¿Cuáles son las actividades y la meditación correcta que deberíamos tener los discípulos para ese día?

HpS

1. You might read about Srila Prabhupada's Harinama/Gayatri Diksa and Sannyasa Diksa in the Lilamrta or one volume biography of Srila Prabhupada.
2. Send a few ideas about your Diksa and becoming a Goswami either informally for a lady or formally for a man, and what experiences you have had following those vows.
3. Ask us some question about our experiences and following our Mantra and Ashrama vows?

Y en relación al 11 de enero - celebración del Vyasa Puja (español) en línea. Nos gustaría preguntarle ¿Se realizarán diferentes transmisiones (como el año anterior) o será una sola para todos los hispano hablantes? En cualquier caso, nos gustaría saber si podemos contribuir de algún modo.

HpS - Sundara radhika Devi Dasi made a Whatsapp group for devotees to communicate about the Vyasapuja festival. I think if you just filter the Posts for Calendar Development you can find it. You can ask there.

I have not heard of a Spanish language subgroup, but maybe one exists.

I expect she, others, will post some scheduled for the events pretty soon. If they don't then Monkey/Piggy will start posting.

In general, we think the 11th should be like 10am - 11pm. Some devotees will be live in Srinivasa Das and Mataji's house and we can announce the online link.

General purpose is to glorify the Parampara from Krsna to you.

Querido Guru Maharaja, muchas gracias por mantenernos ocupados en este trascendental carnaval. Esperamos poder ser herramientas útiles a vuestro servicio.

Siempre a sus órdenes

Su aspirante a discípula

Karuna-Sakti Devi Dasi

HpS/ASA - Can Abhinandana Das send some news to the Blog? How does he spend his days? What are his realizations in devotional service?
