Hare Krishna.

We are on vacations until May 9th... We will start working everyday in the school. We finally got the permission to do it. So, no more virtual classes.


Our sadhana and worship is good, thanks to your mercy and help. Reading SB everyday.

Family is ok. Health is ok, too. Everything is on Krsna's hands.


ASA/HpS - Thanks Patraka, Antuanette. Your reports make us ashamed of not being stronger in our Sadhana. We are improving.

Kapi Dhvaja is essential to our ASA...

Ptrk - Please, forgive us ... It may seem our last letter was misunderstood... Our sadhana is going well THANKS TO YOU... You are the main inspiration to continue doing and improving our sadhana... without your mercy we are totally lost.


We made a note to write our thoughts on fire sacrifices and saligrama/govardhana sile worship. We will send you a link.

Ptrk- Thanks a lot... It was a really great advice... We will try to follow your instructions. Forgive us for not being so advanced.


Thanks a lot for your infinite mercy

PC: Jay Haridas / MANUEL'S 14TH REPORT

2 years, 8 months ago by manuel in Special Category A

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada and all his enthusiastic, determined and patient disciples like you who are ready, always, to carry out his transcendental instructions.

 

Please excuse this report being 2 days late, ARTD is trying to better tune with Paramatma. We hope to be more helpful and punctual in our humble efforts.


Tom Brown: Sorry it has taken one week to answer it. We are also struggling, but when the

Kapi Dhvaja stuff arrives late then escapes from your normal, though small, system to do stuff. In any case, it is so welcome.

Hope it is funny.

 

DTC-UT FILM:

A. ADJUSTMENTS TO DEFINITELY FINISH THE 1st MOVIE (Peru): On May 3 we hope to have a meeting, via Zoom, with HH HpS, Raul and Pablo to refine details,

for example the voices of Tom Brown and Bucke White, the credits of Óscar Naters and Ana Zavala (They are the National Prize for Culture, in 2017, in the creativity genre, they also have other international awards) and how to present Radhika Ramana Dasa.

TB-Yes we have had very productive meetings and film is done. Now we send it to Jagat guru Das and he puts in on Vimeo with a private address. Then in Texas we plan an Avante Premier.


B. DETAILS OF THE 2nd FILM (USA): Pablo will travel to Minneapolis from June 10 to 21 and then from June 22 to July 20 he will travel to Houston to meet with HpS, TB and BW. Right now we are seeing what technical elements, in addition to the Chamber, should be brought to the USA.


TB-Because Krsna is merciful, second film is developing. All we should aspire for is to find our little place in Srila Prabhupada's orchestra.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBZ7AfZR9xs


C. DETAILS OF THE 3rd FILM (Spain): Due to Krishna's arrangement, the trip of Ambarisa, Vrisabhanu and Hari-Vansi to Madrid is cheaper by making a stopover in Lima (the stopover can be 10 hours or 1 day) this will allow them to get some equipment that they need and that Raúl has, and on the other a suitcase with SOLARIS Magazines.


TB-Thank you for doing this work. You are earning your title in the film as Producer. We all thank you (although we all have room to improve, no?!)


D. DETAILS OF THE 4th FILM (India): Now that the dates have been changed, now the trip is scheduled from September 7 to 30, we are making adjustments with the mother of Govinda Pramodini to see the issue of accommodation.


TB-See the letter from BRC published today. They say they can help with accomodations.


The delegation would leave Lima (10 to 12 people) in the crew are Miguel Polo and his wife, Héctor Béjar (he is in Switzerland on that date, he would join Madrid on September 5) Óscar and Ana, possibly Claudia Lira or Elvira Ríos and some devotees complete the crew

 

The meeting of April 24 for the presentation of the project for June of an International Symposium: Science, psyche and spirituality. The meeting between Carl Gustav Jung and Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur was a success, the entire coordination team of the Masters and disciples forum attended. In the end, three of them have a decided proposal for a presentation:

  • Claudia Lira: About Taoism in Jung and Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati
  • Héctor Béjar: on War and Peace.
  • Dwarka Prabhu: Meditation a comparative study between Jung and Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati.

The other members of the team have not yet decided on their presentation. Please we URGENTLY request help to provide them with a good biography of Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur and any books we have on him. Miguel, Héctor and Claudia have requested this material with great interest.

TB-The heroes big and little did the work and excellent academically of highest authorization encyclopedia artice written by Prana Das of Bh. Siddhanta Prabhu AND Jung in India have been sent to all.

We will work on refining our idea of these symposia, the possible building of bridge between Jung and Bh. Siddhanta Sarasvati.

Same two books have been sent to Dr. Samaresh.


To finish this report we have good news: By the mercy of Guru and Gauranga the Spanish translation of the book "Tava pache pache" is already done, Parbhu Partha who is an excellent professional translator is finished, now we are in a style review , which goes to Prabhu Jayanta, we hope that when Ambarisa traveled to Spain, would take with her 108 books in English and 108 books in Spanish.


TB-Is better to print in Spain, no?


That's all for now next Friday May 6th I will send a report exclusively about SOLARIS, thank you very much for accepting our limited service.

TB - Salute from the Supreme Absolute Undifferentiated Commando of ASA in photo below.

Hari Bolo!




Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada y a todos sus discípulos entusiastas, determinados y pacientes como tú que están dispuestos, siempre, a cumplir sus trascendentales instrucciones.


Por favor disculpa que este informe llegue con 2 días de atraso, ARTD está tratando de sintonizarse mejor con Paramatma. Esperamos ser más útiles y puntuales en nuestros humildes esfuerzos.


PELÍCULA DTC-UT:

A.    AJUSTES PARA ACABAR, DEFINITIVAMENTE, LA 1ERA PELÍCULA (Perú): El 3 de mayo esperamos tener una reunión, por Zoom, con HH HpS, Raul y Pablo para afinar detalles, por ejemplo las voces de Tom Brown y Bucke White, los créditos de Óscar Naters y Ana Zavala (Ellos son Premio Nacional de Cultura, el 2017, en el género creatividad, también, tienen otros premios internacionales más) y cómo presentar a Radhika Ramana Dasa.

B.    DETALLES DE LA 2DA PELÍCULA (USA): Pablo viajara a Minneapolis del 10 al 21 de junio y luego del 22 de junio al 20 de julio viajara a Houston para darse el encuentro con HpS, TB y BW. En estos momentos estamos viendo que elementos técnicos además de la Cámara debe llevar a USA.

C.     DETALLES DE LA 3era PELICULA (España): Por un arreglo de Krishna el viaje de Ambarisa, Vrisabhanu y Hari-Vansi a Madrid sale más económico haciendo escala en Lima (la escala puede ser de 10 horas o 1 día) eso va a permitir darle algunos equipos que ellos necesitan y que Raúl tiene y por otro una maleta con Revistas SOLARIS.

D.    DETALLES DE LA 4ta PELICULA (India): Ahora que se ha cambiado las fechas, ahora el viaje esta programado del 7 al 30 de setiembre estamos haciendo ajustes con la madre de Govinda Pramodini para ver el tema del hospedaje. La delegación saldría de Lima (10 a 12 personas) en la tripulación están Miguel polo y su esposa, Héctor Béjar (el está en Suiza en esa fecha, él se uniría en Madrid el 5 de setiembre) Óscar y Ana, posiblemente Claudia Lira o Elvira Ríos y algunos devotos completan la tripulación


La reunión del 24 de abril para la presentación del proyecto para junio de un Simposio Internacional: Ciencia, psique y espiritualidad. El encuentro entre Carl Gustav Jung y Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur fue un éxito, todo el equipo de coordinación del foro Maestros y discípulos asistió. Al final tres de ellos tienen una propuesta decidida de ponencia:

Claudia Lira: Acerca del taoísmo en Jung y Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati

Héctor Béjar: La guerra y la Paz.

Dwarka Prabhu: Meditación un estudio comparativo entre Jung y Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati.

Los otros miembros del equipo todavía no deciden su ponencia. Por favor URGENTEMENTE solicitamos ayuda para proporcionarles una buena biografía de Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur y algunos libros que tengamos de él. Miguel, Héctor y Claudia han solicitado este material con mucho interés.


Para terminar este informe tenemos una buena noticia: Por la misericordia de Guru y Gauranga la traducción al español del libro “Tava pache pache” ya está hecho Parbhu Partha qué es un excelente traductor de profesión ya lo entrego, ahora estamos en una revisión de estilo que la va a Prabhu Jayanta, esperamos que cuando viajé Ambarisa a España lleve consigo 108 libros en inglés y 108 libros en español.


Eso es todo por ahora el próximo viernes 6 de mayo enviare un informe exclusivamente de SOLARIS, muchas gracias por aceptar nuestro limitado servicio.

[Jaya Hari dasa] - "Waves of Devotion" Translation Report

2 years, 8 months ago by Mitravinda d.d in Special Category A

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🏻

Please, accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!


Gurudeva, here is a little report about our progress in "Waves of Devotion" translation..


Some weeks ago I got from Param Padam prabhu the Eastern Ocean of the book already translated into Spanish.


ASA - AgtSP.... Hmmm. There was an English version of WOD for the Eastern part that was circulating in hard copy. Later they did some extensive editing of it for the final printed book. Guess you should check the translation you have to see if it matches the official English copy.


So, we started with the next part: Southern Ocean..


Until now we have translated about 70 % of the Southern Ocean.

Of course, all this work has to be reviewed and edited carefully.


HpS - When I finally appreciated what Maharaja had done in WoD, my understanding of NoD increased many times.


Apsara Gopi dd is helping a lot, because she has already previous experience in translations work.


I have to improve, Gurudeva 🙏🏻

I am delay with my part, due to mistakes in my time management.


Seeking your blessings and begging for your mercy to obtain inteligence to go on..

Mitravinda dd.


HpS - Such a nice substantial work.

Hope you health is always teaching you new things about devotional service.

Respects to Apsara, Param, everyone. Thank you.

We are trying to arrange partnership between NIOS and Bhakti Vedanta Research Center in Kolkatta/Mumbai.


We made some suggestions to Sumana Rudra, director, about working on the Jung project ect and here is his answer:


"[4:24 PM, 5/7/2022] Hp Swami: Dear Maharaj,


My dandavat pranams to you. Hare Krishna!


I am sorry I could not revert to you earlier as I have been travelling extensively. We are very grateful for all that you have mentioned regarding working in collaboration with BRC. 


We are eagerly looking forward to collaborating with NIOS for all the academic activities you have listed. We will share with you some reports of BRC activities and a couple of MoUs (Memorandum of Understanding) we have with other institutions.


BRC will be very happy to host yourself and the NIOS team in September. I am happy to note that Radhika Raman Prabhu had recently participated in our conference “Bhakti in Vaishnava Tradtions”. It is a pleasure to know that Prabhu will also be part of the September conference. I will also connect with Dr. Samaresh as you have advised. 


Thank you.


Regards,

Sumanta

[4:24 PM, 5/7/2022] Hp Swami: Prabhu... You are so merciful!  AgtSP!   I think you may be very busy. Did you have facility to call Dr. Samaresh Bandyopadyay about the two books. I think I attached them.

[4:24 PM, 5/7/2022] Hp Swami: I also contacted his son, Satadal, in the South and he said that he was trying to arrange that Dr. could print them in the house.   I am also forwarding your letter to Sriman Abhiseka Singh (Abhiseka Das) our current NIOS President. He also just became like Chief Legal Counsel for Conflict Resolution Office for ISKCON.  Thank you.  More news as it becomes available.

[4:26 PM, 5/7/2022] Hp Swami: Estimado Abhiseka Das...  Do you know Sumanta?  He is like director for the Bhaktivedanta Research Center in Kolkata. They have an authorized PhD program with Bombay Univerity. ETC.  E T C!"

Please advertise it on your blog and implore everyone who is going to come and see you in Boise to come during Ratha Yatra the weekend of June 4-5. It is on 5th from 12 to 4pm. And have them contact Sriman Nitisara Das, 503 307-8268, ASAP so we can plan for accommodations Prasadam etc.
