[ASA Carnaval] – Reporte Padmini Ekadasi 2023

1 year, 11 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, 11 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?


re: Improving VedaBse.IO?

1 year, 11 months ago by pnd in Special Category A

Dear Gurumaharaja,

Please accept mu humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.


Reply to your https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/14180/


[after sending this letter I realized that quoted text is not formatted differently, so it looks same like other text, fixed it]


We hope your part in Srila Prabhupada's Sankirtan party, ISKCON [!] is growing with enthusiasm.

I am improving current sankirtana and generally considering myself as part of ISKCON, although somehow it seems there are two ISKCONs (one ideal where we all assist Srila Prabhupad and one which is mixed)


HpS - ASA --- As many ISKCONs as people who join it.

  1. The insititution. Always will have porblems. Always. The devas agains the asuras, yet each fight has eternal results
  2. The community of friends, learning how to work as friends to satisfy our supreme friend i ISKCON
  3. Srila Prabhuapada. We must experience his direct concern for our situation and his guidance in Lord Caitanya's movement.


Any way we can help you?

YES. Please bless me, so I can always please you and parampara and follow morning program on 100%.


HpS - Hare Krsna!!!!! AgtSP. You will conquer all the obstacles. Just keep confident and making inprovements.


Srinatha Krsna Das et al were visiting for our Cultivation of the Human Spirit (CHS) symposium last weekend. Wonderful.
He commented that if LOB (and NOI) would open like a chapter in the SB on VDB.IO it would seem to give so much more access for study and teaching.
That would mean instead of opening to the untitled verse numbers, it would open to the whole booklet with each verse and their purports arranged as they are in the individual chapters of SB.


Yes, it is must have for new vedabase.io version (actually this feature is already planned and in my todo list). Sri Isopanisad has same issue.


I made recently one project for Sri Vaisnavas (www.uveda.org) and already did same for them, it works nicely with new system. But vedabase.io is more complex (e.g. multilingual and smallest unit is paragraph), so takes little longer.


HpS - Great news! Great news. Sastras are our Astrasd!!!


This is a suggestion from Users with very little knowledge of how much work it would take to make the change.

I am always happy to hear suggestions from users. If they are doable and make sense (like this one) I am happy to add them.



Need help?

Yes, regarding Vedabase (online and/or offline) I need suggestions from all kinds of users for desired features, expectations, ideas, etc...


And actually I had idea make some kind of online meeting or forum/chat group to find suggestions about missing features or any desires which can improve both projects (online and upcoming offline reader).


HpS - Maybe advertise it like: Please send suggestions on challenges that you face with Vedabase.io and improvements that you like by September 15th.

Then collect them. Look at them and talk back?


I am somehow envious of Christians as they were able to make Accordance Bible software which is packed with interesting features for advanced researchers. If Krishna will want I would love to bring offline reader into same (or higher) level to make 'ultimate research tool' :)


Send some news: VDB.IO? Family? Yatra? How long it take you to buy Audi?

Will send in another letter.


Hare Krishna,

Your servant Prahlad Nrsimha das


HpS - Thank you. Thank you for this Blog!

Maintaining VedaBase.Io is bigger than "owning Audi".

always chanting

1 year, 11 months ago by harsh_horse in Special Category A

Hare Krsna Gurudeva, AGTSP, PAMHO

we were trying to chant mentally, as its best thing we can do in city life/commutation, when we are not speaking.



----

how can we chant constantly?

what does it practically mean ?

how to chant constantly ,if hearing/ talking sense is engaged in external world activities?

how to chant constantly, if mind is involved in problem solving or palnning ?


folded hands in anticipation of mercy

harsh pradhan trying to be Hayagriva Avatar DAS



previous references: https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/13940/




HpS - By the time we answer this I think you will have finished your surgery! We want to news but realize your body will not be doing much internet.

Hare Krsna.

Hare Krsna!

Chanting, thinking of you.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!


We all help each other grossly or subtly to chant constant.

Engage in hearing and chanting constantly.

We keep the FMS going. That is so, so, so powerful.

It draaaaags us forward.

Everyday we learn more about Gurvastakam.

The more we know, the more we are attached, motivated.


Our chanting has influence on the subtle platform.


Members of our group are attached to each other.


How to chant constantly? By seeking association of devotees, acharyas on the gross and subtle platform. Sharing what we find with others.

Do you have a picture of Prabhupada on your altar?

Do you have an altar?

If you do arati, offerings, kirtan for them, they will be present.

Another regular piece of the 24-hour day becomes eternally Kirtan.


Then we join Krsna's dynamic completely new lila which occupies outside of even 24-hour regular schedules.

Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna.

we need pictures of you!
