Prof. Dr. Samaresh tried to call us at 6PM last night, and then I had this WhatsApp exchange - very informative:


[Missed voice call at 5.53PM]

[8/9/2023 7:44 AM] HP Swami - Prof HHR: Professor, just getting to my mail. Missed your call.

May we be of assistance?


[8/9/2023 8:05 AM] Samaresh Bandhyopadaya: You may call now if you are free.

[8/9/2023 8:48 AM] Samaresh Bandhyopadaya: May I know the time when you are free to call me ?


[8/9/2023 3:15 PM] : Just getting back to my mail. 😕

[8/9/2023 3:16 PM] : I seem to be borderline Alzheimer's so if I push too hard with any psychic or Rajarsic or project work I start getting things like my body cramping.

[8/9/2023 3:18 PM] : Had to just turn off on Monday because cramps were coming down from my shoulders and my hands were just contracting into fists. Intense pain if I believed in pain. 🙂

[8/9/2023 3:21 PM] : I can do some planning, arranging, organizing (people say, even very well) but it is a limited amount. I think it may be similar for your good self, no? Yet, you have the fortune of taking birth as a human being in the land of Bharata. 😎 We took birth in the middle of the Hippy revolution and were saved by a Hindu monk.

[8/9/2023 3:22 PM] : I am prioritizing my work. We spent 2-hours outlining it in our last 'Kapi Dhvaja': https://www.jayarama.us/news.htm

[8/9/2023 3:26 PM] : We have stuck with giving SB classes with our Hawaii center and now they are in the Fifth Canto and there is intense controversy over the Cosmology described. It has taken from 8AM to now to begin to discuss ideas presented there, and tomorrow is the class.

[8/9/2023 3:28 PM] : Can we plan to call at 7.30PM IST? That will give us some time to prepare for the Hawaii class at 9.30PM IST.

[8/9/2023 3:28 PM] : Thank you.

Hare Krishna, Dear Guru maharaja!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and All glories to you.

Please accept our humble obeisances. (PAOHO)


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. How are U???


HpS - ASA -- AgtSP. I am very well now that I can chat with you all!

Our voice, eyes, muscles, cerebrum, are all going, but we are learning very good techniques to get all the energy out of this body possible to serve Krsna to the end.

Basically we won't adopt any medical intervention more than Srila Prabhupada did in his own example.

You and your body and life are good example to us!



I am ok. This is my last week oh holidays.


I had meetings with the school owners. They asked me to be the academic coordinator for secondary level.

It means next year I will continue with only one of my groups, the old one (8th grade) be their tutor, and be in charged of all teachers in secondary level.


HpS - Is it an open ended service or fixed for a certain time, and then everyone stops and looks at the situation?


Next week I will have my appointment in the Hospital. Let see what they say now. The good thing about all this situation is that I am taking fewer pills. I don't feel anything weird. None of the symptoms indicating transplant failure. But only Krsna knows what is best for me.


HpS - Maybe you were Abhimanyu in your last life. On loan to Krsna for 16-years then went back to his, Poppa!? 😅


We thanks a lot all you support and patience. Your words give me a lot of strength and faith to face any situation.


HpS - 😢 AgtSP who has given/gives his life for us.

In this Kapi Dhvaja we tried to organize all the work. Was great help for us.

You are Waldorf not Montessori, no?

[ASA Carnaval] – Reporte Padmini Ekadasi 2023

1 year, 8 months ago by asacarnaval in Special Category A

¡Hare Krsna! Guru Maharaja por favor acepte nuestras entregadas reverencias

¡Todas las Glorias sean a Srila Prabhupada, y todas las glorias a usted y a los fieles seguidores de nuestro Divino Acarya, que nos guían en el camino que él nos ha mostrado!🙇

🌻


Oramos por que la energía de su cuerpo sea buena y favorable a su sankirtana. Muchas gracias por la inagotable inspiración que nos brinda para continuar con nuestros intentos de servir en el trascendental ejercito de Srila Prabhupada.


Escribo como parte del equipo de ASA Carnaval, para enviar nuestro reporte de actividades:


*Durante este periodo; Sugopi Devi Dasi, Jaya Hari Prabhu y RamaKrsna Ananda Prabhu, amablemente compartieron fotos y videos (De Richmond y Nashville). Apreciamos especialmente los videos del festival del Cultivo del Espíritu Humano (CHS) y del Harinama e iniciaciones en Richmond.🎶

*Por otra parte continuamos transmitiendo las clases sabatinas de Prabhu Upendra y usted.

*También hemos agregado al canal de youtube las clases que usted ha dado para ParthSarthi Foundation (Houston)


Proyectos:

*Tenemos pendiente comunicarnos con Abhirama Thakura Prabhu respecto a las grabaciones de Santa Eulalia.📌

*Aunque muy lento, continuamos con el trabajo de indización y respaldo en la plataforma de youtube.


Importante:

Guru Maharaja, respetuosamente, nos gustaría poner a su consideración la posibilidad de que, durante algunas clases sabatinas, se imparta algún seminario del “Guru Tattva”; Consideramos importante este tópico, porque la correcta y profunda comprensión de la función e importancia del Maestro Espiritual es el eje para el desarrollo de la vida espiritual. Sabemos que el tema ha sido tratado anteriormente en diferentes yatras, no obstante, creemos que estas clases, nos servirían para iluminar nuestro entendimiento y para contar con grabaciones de mejor calidad que podrían ser de utilidad para generaciones posteriores. Otra opción podría ser un seminario sobre “Canciones Vaisnavas” que puede ayudarnos a comprender y a relacionarnos con la canción y con el autor. Agradecemos su consideración y quedamos atentos a su amable respuesta.🙏

I will do (Hare) Krsna! Guru Maharaja, please accept our dedicated obeisances.

All glories be to Srila Prabhupada, and all glories to you and the faithful followers of our Divine Acarya, who guide us on the path he has shown us!🙇

🌻


ASA/HpS - Thank you all, ASA Carnival, for showing us such a good example of the complete life of Sankirtan.


We pray that the energy in his body is good and favorable for his Sankirtana.


HpS/ASA - Right now it is good. Just as for you, it is always a struggle, especially to honor Prasadam perfectly. 🙂


Thank you very much for the inexhaustible inspiration you give us to continue our attempts to serve in Srila Prabhupada's transcendental army.


I am writing as part of the ASA Carnaval team, to send our

Activity Report:


*During this time; Sugopi Devi Dasi, Jaya Hari Prabhu and RamaKrsna Ananda Prabhu kindly shared photos and videos (From Richmond and Nashville). We especially appreciate the videos of the Cultivation of the Human Spirit (CHS) festival and the Harinama and empowerments in Richmond.🎶


*On the other hand we continue to broadcast the Saturday classes of Prabhu Upendra and you.


*We have also added to the Youtube channel the classes that you have given for ParthSarthi Foundation (Houston)


Projects:

*We have yet to communicate with Abhirama Thakura Prabhu regarding the recordings of Santa Eulalia.📌


*Although very slow, we continue with the indexing and backup work on the YouTube platform.


HpS/ASA - We hear of all this work, but always hope that the same work is going on for Srila Prabhupada six-times more strongly than for us! Of course, there are Prabhupada's Memories, Lila-amrta, but ASA can also be doing things directly for Prabhupada, no?


Important:

Guru Maharaja, respectfully, we would like to put to your consideration the possibility that, during some Saturday classes:

  1. A Guru Tattva seminar is given; We consider this topic important, because the correct and deep understanding of the function and importance of the Spiritual Master is the axis for the development of spiritual life. We know that the subject has been dealt with before in different Yatras, however, we believe that these classes would help us to illuminate our understanding and to have better quality recordings that could be useful for later generations.
  2. Another option could be a seminar on Vaisnava Songs that can help us understand and relate to the song and the author.

We appreciate your consideration and we remain attentive to your kind response.🙏

That is our report for now Guru Maharaja, please excuse the shortcomings. Thank you very much for keeping us enthusiastic about Srila Prabhupada's mission.🌱

HpS/ASA - Thank you so much. We will especially refer this Post to Sri Natha Krsna Das. He expressed strong desire to work on the ASA Encyclopedia (A Brown's Eye View of Everything)!

Also, we were inspired by your systematic formatting to try and ad a little more. Hope it is O.K.


God, or the Devil, are in the details.

update after operation

Hare Krsna, Gurudeva, AGTSP, PAMHO,


As your grace [holiness 😄] wrote in 14190 --"we need pictures of you!"


We have only two pictures of ourself, one before going in operation theatre and one after coming out...

----

Secondly we think our great/only fortune is that you wanted to give initiation to us, even we are not qualified at all.


HpS - You were, we are, by His Divine Grace!


-----


while discussing our progress with HG Parth Pratim Prabhu,

from

animal birth in bharat --- human birth( manusya janam) --- janam sarthak kori --- karo paropkar....



it was found ..


our desire to be exceptional interfers with our following small things... though we know in this effort we might compete with Krsna, but i think effort to acheive pure devotional service is itself exceptional,


ASA 🦁 Damn right it is!

---

anyways-- we know we want to approach you as pyschologist, father, spiritual master, friend..

we have approached to you earlier as either of these, and you have reciprocated perfectly..

---

as there many letters/instructions/advices by you given to us in this blog, hence we are not writing as much as earlier to this blog.....


though we actually want to write ...

trying to becoming Hayagriva Avatar Das


small but eternal progress


ASA - 🐵. . . 🐖 Hey! What about your surgery. How big is the scar? Did you see the gunk they cut out? Was the doctor feel'n good about the shop work?

How many more miles you got on your present kindeys? Did they give you a warranty?

10 year visa

1 year, 9 months ago by jaya krishna das in Special Category A

Hare Krishna, Devotees


A major change has been made to the 10-year multi-entry visa to India, I learned the hard way.


Today I was planning to move permanently to Vrndavan, my friend Pancagoda Prabhu the TP of Vrndavan, we were flying together. He asked me what type of visa I have, I said the same one for the past 30 years. He said go check I believe changes were made


Before I/we could stay 6 months, do a border hop and return for 6 months. No more! Now we can stay 6 months but....have to stay out of the country 6 months. No more border hops


Needless to say I didn't go.


Now my desire is to return to the states and my desire is Tennessee. I hope Krishna makes that a reality


I hope my bad news was helpful


Jaya Krishna Das


HpS/ASA - AgtSP! Paoho. Thank you! We know several devotees who are in this Vanaprastha situation. Can pay maybe $500/month for rent and only want a little studio apartment, or even part of a house, where they can stay with devotees and be apart of the community.

Houston Temple is like that.

You don't need a full house. You are just four minute walk from restaurant, temple, arati, kirtan, so many programs, other devotees houses, parks, gardens, so if any one knows of single Vanaprastha accommodations please let us know.


Our mind is becoming more unstable day by day. With intelligence we can keep it working, and even use it well, but we certainly cannot plan on making plans and organizing projects.

Will we move to Houston for the Winter and Spring??? Will we stay in Tennessee, Radha Natabara Yatra?

Where is our Sankirtan place?

Where is our purification?
