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

¡Todas las Glorias sean a nuestro muy misericordioso Srila Prabhupada y todas las glorias a sus fieles seguidores!🙇

🙇

Orando porque su energía sea buena y favorable a su predica. Agradecemos mucho que nos mantenga conectados a las instrucciones de Srila Prabhupada… ¡Sí, Sí, Sí! Oramos sinceramente para Lord Krsna, nos permita continuar con su asociación por siempre.🐒

😊

Gracias por su respuesta al correo anterior y por sus correcciones, enviamos el reporte de esta quincena:

Durante este periodo no tuvimos actividades significativas, únicamente mantenemos las transmisiones en Facebook de las diversas clases que usted ha dictado, especialmente las clases sabatinas en compañía de Upendra Prabhu.

Poco a poco estamos subiendo las grabaciones al canal de youtube, ahí también, pueden encontrarse algunas clases en español de Srila Prabhupada.

Respecto a las grabaciones en Santa Eulalia, tal como usted sugiere, en cuanto nos sea posible nos comunicaremos con Abhirama Prabhu.

Proyectos: Tenemos varios archivos de distintas clases y seminarios que usted ha dictado (la mayoría son “solo audio”). Estamos intentando compartirlas en ASA Carnaval, aunque nos disculpamos por no ser capaces de compartirlas con la velocidad que quisiéramos. Observamos que requerimos un mejor equipo de cómputo que nos permita editar los videos de manera más rápida y eficiente (estamos trabajando en ello).🤓

💻

Continuamos intentando avanzar de acuerdo a nuestras posibilidades,🐒

muchas gracias por su paciencia.🙏

Thank you for your response to the previous email and for your corrections, we are sending this fortnight's report:

During this period we did not have significant activities, we only keep the transmissions on Facebook of the various classes that you have taught, especially the Saturday classes in the company of Upendra Prabhu.

Little by little we are uploading the recordings to the YouTube channel, there you can also find some classes in Spanish by Srila Prabhupada.

Regarding the recordings in Santa Eulalia, as you suggest, we will contact Abhirama Prabhu as soon as possible.

Projects: We have several files of different classes and seminars that you have taught (most are “audio only”). We are trying to share them at ASA Carnaval, although we apologize for not being able to share them as quickly as we would like. We note that we require better computer equipment that allows us to edit the videos faster and more efficiently (we are working on it).🤓

💻

 We continue trying to advance according to our possibilities,🐒

 Thank you very much for your patience.🙏

HpS/ASA - 'Everyone you will meet, will be more honest, more educated, more sincere than you. The only thing you have to offer them are the words of your spiritual master", Srila Bhaktisiddhanta to his Sannyasis being sent out to preach.

Our Spiritual Master is Srila Prabhupada.

We are all try to just illuminate his words.

Thank you all!

Hope you see the resources Krsna is sending: Tools, people, intelligence, and grab them!!

From Yahoo.Com:

Hare Krishna, Hanumat Presaka Maharaja,

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

Attached below is a first initiation letter of recommendation for Sunita Telhan.

Your servant,

Giri-govardhana Dasa

ISKCON D. C.

HpS:

A A A gSP! Paoho... !. It is so nice to get your association.

On the basis of this official recommendation, our personal contact with Mataji and recommendation of others, we are certainly very happy to act as ISKCON Diksa guru for Mataji.

Very happy.

In general we have stopped giving Hari-nama Diksa because of our advanced physical age and can certainly recommend devotees like Radha-krsna Das in Houston to perform the function, but in Mataji's case it seems appropriate.

What Mataji's date of birth?

The ceremony will be in Rich Mound when we visit in a few weeks?

Thank you.

Hoping you find some engagement for us in your Sankirtan!

Hanumatpresaka Swami

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🏻

Please, accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

HpS/ASA - 😍

In response to your questions from the previous report..

HpS: What is style correction?

As the translation is being done by five different devotees, it results differ greatly from each other, which is why we need a job of syntax to homologate the text in Spanish in the best possible way.

The style correction eliminates grammatical errors and adjusts the text to the regulations.

Syntax inconsistencies, concordance errors, correlation of verb tenses, errors in the use of prepositions, etc. are corrected.

It is done to improve the flow and cohesion of a text.

HpS - Yes, I think Kesava Bharati Swami did this for Brhat bhagavata amrta of Gopi pranadahna. People don't realize how many people may be involved in gfetting the finished product.

HpS: Gandharva das is not working with you?

No Gurudeva, he told me that he was not able to do this service anymore. A few days ago, his wife Indira Sakti dd told me that at this time he is very, very busy in his job.

But the good news, Gurudeva are that Abhirama Thakura prabhu offered to help us in this process in various ways.

We will meet soon in order to make the work plan.

Any suggestion from you is welcome, Gurudeva.

Thank you! 🙏🏻

Your aspiring servant:

Mitravinda dd.

HpS - Our only impression is that it seems to us that when this book is available in Spanish it will create a big step forward for all the Rupanugas in the Hispanic world.

Thank you!!!

Hare Krishna, Dear Gurumaharaja!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and All glories to you.

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????

We are doing ok. Trying to keep a good sadhana (16R, 4.30AM, 4P). Worshipping our deities before leaving for work. Then reading SB everyday.

Things at school are pretty good. This week we celebrate Winter Solstice and The feast of Saint John the Baptist. We work on the image of a new beginning and that the fire of a campfire burns all the bad things that we want to change in ourselves. The students write in a letter everything bad that they want to change and offer it to the fire. The older grade (11th) chant in Sanskrit and Spanish the invocation to Agni. It is such a beautiful ceremony.

ASA - 😲👍👍👍

Last week my niece broke her grain fast. It was a simple but very significant ceremony.

we thanks a lot all you support and patience

HpS/ASA: AgtSP!.... paoho.

Prabhu, thank you for the audio clip of one round of Japa!

Zubra Dasi and CCD sent us a Kroger gift certificate for Happy Father's Day.

Both gifts leave us breathless!

Let us offer everything to Lord Nrsmha Deva, the Supreme Father.

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/7/10/6/

We can go marketing for Him.

How to Improve Japa!

The entire SB, CC, NoD seems to be the answer to that question, no?

We heard H. H. Satsvarupa Das Gos. asked the same question to Srila Prabhupada, "How to chant better rounds, Srila Prabhupada"?

Then, SP looked at him with pointy eyes and said, "By chanting better rounds"!

So, that's the basic answer, no?? That if we are chanting rounds, we are getting intelligence from the Lord of the Heart. So, we have sufficient knowledge how to chant better, then the question is are we going to do it, be faithful, be Bhaktas. Use whatever strength we have to apply the improvement that our Krsna conscious intelligence is dictating.

Beyond that we were in Vaikuntha listening to the one round of Japa. Timed 10-mantras and they were 4.5 sec/mantra. Then the whole clip seems to be 8' 48" which is 5 seconds/Mantra.

(We are doing just about the same now.)

That means 16-rounds, 1728 mantras, = 8,640 sec. = 144 min. = 2hours and 24 minutes, no?

NoI 7 and 8 seem to be nice instructions on Japa. If we are chanting attentively, Nama, then we should start to develop a desire to see the form of the Lord, Rupa. Our intelligence starts asking us, "Hey, you chant'n 'Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare', but where is dis Krsna!"

So, we look around the room for a picture of Krsna (and cows (and Srimati Radharani)) or go sit in front of our Deities or in the Temple Room.

Does that happen to you?

"Nama, Rupa, Carit-adi..." (NoI 7 & 8). Adi = Sanga and Lila, no? All this should manifest if we are chanting with Bhakti.

• Sit properly.
• Breath properly.
• Chant with proper meaning.

We heard that Prabhupada told Guru-kripa Swami that he could chant in the mood of the Siksastakam.

We especially remember SB 10.47.63.

Chanting clearly with our lips purifies the earth,

Chanting also with mental attention purifies the sky,

Chanting also with meaning purifies heaven, Goloka?

Enough people chanting like that, purifying the mental atmosphere and then very difficult for people to think demoniac thoughts.

Some of our ideas.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!

Please let us know your thoughts on the matter.

😃

HpS/ASA

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva.

Please accept my humble obeisances!

HpS - Thank you so much.

Best Kirtan on the planet!

👍

😾

1. Are all the Leaders chanting 16-nice rounds a day and following four principles strictly?
2. Are they keeping FMS at home or in the GoToMeeting?
3. Do they know the word-by-word meaning of the Gurvastaka?
4. Have they read:

. . . https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/adi/17/123/

. . . https://vedabase.io/es/library/cc/adi/17/123/

?

🐐

What stupid questions? How should she know?!!

HpS - Maybe can encourage Leaders to follow some standard. We go forward to cultural conquest!

Thank you so much!

Please give our best wishes to Christina if you are in contact with her. Ask her to send some news to the Blog.
