Nama om vishnu-padaya krishna-preshthaya bhu-tale srimate Hanumatpresaka-svamin iti namine.

Dear Guru Maharaja,

Aware of your trip to India this coming October 1 of this year, we formed a delegation of 13 devotees to be able to accompany you to Calcutta, Manipur and Vrindavam, in order to be able to buy the tickets and be able to coincide with your itinerary, please we would like to know dates and time of stay in the different places you will visit in order to match our reservations with yours.

Thanking you in advance for your courtesy, I cordially say goodbye.

Atte. His humble and eternal servant at his lotus feet, birth after birth Jiyada Nrsmha dasa. 

HpS - ASA - AGTSP!! paoho. Not trying to be absurd, but we often consider our life breath by breath now. We are always trying to make the Calendar in the Kapi Dhvaja complete from a broad perspective and also in practical detail.

Our rough plan is to be in Spain from 15th July until October first.

The last week of October friends and family from South America may join us and pursue their own work in Spain. Then they would spend three weeks in India: Kolkata, Manipur, (Delhi) Braja.

That is the rough plan.

Of course, it depends on health. Global political and health situations etc.

We have tickets up to the 17th of April and then we hope to investigate the tickets to Madrid 15th July and those on to India starting as soon as possible.

Will we have any trouble as USA citizens traveling to Spain and then leaving for India?

Thank you.

Hare Krishna, Dear Gurudeva!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you.

Please accept our humble obeisances.

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 Krsna!!!

This is our last week of holidays. It seems we will have face-to-face classes 3 times a week and online classes twice a week. But I need to see if I, particularly, can do that or not since I

take immunosuppressive pills.

Today we had my blood tests and within two weeks I will have my appointment. Let see how the results turn out. Family is ok. Since the beginning of this year, we all are taking morning walks. I chant rounds and my mother and my sister pray the rosary.

Thanks a lot for all your help and patience.

Thank you!!!!

What's next?

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva! 🙏🏻

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet!

ASA - Apple feet.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

ASA - !!

This is the monthly schedule of devotees for leading kirtan on "Full Morning Program":

MONDAY: H. H. Hanumatpresaka Swami.

TUESDAY: Mitravinda devi dasi.

ASA - She is sharing with Jagad-guru Das.

WEDNESDAY: Yugala Kishora dasi.

THURSDAY: Tarangaksi devi dasi, Apsara Gopi devi dasi.

FRIDAY: Panca Tattva Das.

SATURDAY: Abhinanda das, Isvari Radha devi dasi, Karuna Sakti devi dasi.

SUNDAY: Candramukhi devi dasi,, Isvari Radha devi dasi, Parasurama Avatara das.

I am sending this monthly schedule on Dvadasi as you recommended me.

On the last Kapi Dhvaja you have mentioned: "May be nice if some local, Ashokavan devotees lead on more days while we are here".

Gurudeva, if Jagad Guru das agrees I can share Tuesdays with him.

So, he can also lead the kirtan from New Asoka Van those days. I will ask him.

Thank you very much for your attention! 🙏🏻

HARE KRISHNA!!!

ASA - All leaders should be regular Mangala arati participants, and if the bandwidth allows share there screens, no? Also, should learn the word by world meanings. Other wise it sounds funny sometimes!

Thank you everyone!!!

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva 🙏🏻 Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

I read the letter you recently posted on the blog about "Waves of Devotion", telling us that Param Padam prabhu has a copy of the eastern part already translated into Spanish.

So, I wrote to him and he sent me the copy.

Also I wanted to inform you that Isvari Radha mataji got an English pdf versión and shared it with us, but after reviewing it we realized that this pdf version is not complete either.

So, I have written to H.H Dhanurdhara maharaja asking him for a digital full versión of the book. I am waiting for his reply.

HpS - There is a letter from LaD about this that we just published. We should have answered this letter earlier but it slipped past us.

We hope to be of more use in the future.

Even if we cannot help, don't give up on thsi project!

In the last days I have been talking with some devotees asking them if they want to participate in the project and finally we have conformed a team of five devotees: Mitravinda dd, Apsara Gopi dd, Rohini dd, Isvari Radha dd and Sita Lalita dd.

HpS - Maybe LaD can help, or he may feel that Abhinandana Das can join.

We were about to start the translation of the eastern part of the book until I read your recent letter on the Blog.

LAD has not contacted me yet.

Waiting for your guidance on what we should do..

THANK YOU!! 🙏🏻

HARE KRISHNA!!!

Your aspiring servant:

Mitravinda dd.

HpS - I think that you are correct. Now you should wait for Dhanurdhara Swami to answer.

Hare Krishna Gurudeva:

Reciba Ud. Mis reverencias y respetos personales. El motivo de esta carta es para pedirle su misericordia para otorgarme 2da iniciación. Estos 3 últimos años he estado haciendo servicio de pujari en Wilson Lima Mandir entre otros servicios así mismo he terminado estudios de Bakty Sastry y de Arcana. Me encuentro muy entusiasmado por su respuesta y recurro a esta carta ya que estamos en pandemia. A través del Prabhu Abhiram Das le hice llegar la carta de recomendación de mi autoridad, así como unas fotos de mi servicio. Las cuales también se las reenvió por este medio. Le envié también mi reporte annual con todas mis actividades

Hare Krishna, Gurudeva:

Receive my obeisances and personal respects. The reason for this letter is to ask for your mercy to grant me 2nd initiation. These last 3 years I have been doing pujari service in Wilson Lima Mandir among other services, I have also finished Bakti Sastri and Arcana studies. I am very excited about your response and I turn to this letter since we are in a pandemic. Through Prabhu Abhiram Das I sent him the letter of recommendation from my authority, as well as some photos of my service. Which also forwarded them by this means. I also sent him my annual report with all my activities.

HpS - Karuna Krsna Das has recommended three or four devotees for second initiation on Nityananda Trayodasi, February 14th or 13th.

1. Tarangaski Devi Dasi,
2. Mitravida Devi Dasi,
3. Janapavana Das,
4. Abhirama Thakura Das,

Some of them have some specific requirements to meet but in general

• I need to talk individually with each candidate.
• They all must have passed the ISKCON Disciple Course and show there certificate to us.
• All need be fixed in the mode of goodness in their service eg. Mangala-arati and full morning program regularly.
• Be announced as candidate for second initiation on Yatra media one month, or whatever is the GBC standard, before the ceremony.

Hope to talk with you soon.

Post any recommendations here.

Thank you.

You seem to have many of the qualifications for second initiations.

HpSwami

Hare Krsna querido y respetado Gurumaharaja 🙏

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

All glories to SS Hanumatpresaka Swami!

Please accept our obeisances and respects, and we are really happy for your fast recovery by the mercy of Sri Nrsimha and see you again in your sankirtana.

Here at home, we past some hard days because my father in law got covid complications and now is stable but with senile dementia. Parvati is positive to covid but is ok and two days ago Caturatma started with some symthopms and yesterday his result was positive too.

My mother in law and me do not have symthopms so we can help them with the process.

On this days, I am attending FMP by ASA Carnival Facebook live, because Caturatma is attenting by Gotomeeting in quarentine. He is recovering very well and he sends a message for you:

"Maharaja, you are my family, a member of my family. Last monday I had a negative result and even though my father was positive I didn´t mind getting infected by assisting my dad because he is someone very love to me, he is my family. Maharaja, you are part of my family.... I am fine ... we are ok!

We are so grateful for your mercy and pray to Krsna always protects you and let us have your saintly asociatiation. We miss visiting you at New Asoka van - Santa Eulalia, and here there are some photos from our last visit and hoping to see you soon.

Thank you so much Gurumaharaja for be our spiritual father 🙏

we are very afortunate.

Your foolish servants,

Palika dd, Caturatma Gaura das and Parvati 🙇

HpS - ASA -- 🙂 Thank you for the Banana Cakes for Lord Nrsmhadeva, transport to the airport by you and C. Atma Das, help with transfer of money for Manipuri troupe, transport to so many preaching programs, maintaining BBT, tolerating headache of administration in ISKCON Peru, enthusiastic Kirtan and association in Callao.

Hearing Srimad Bhagavatam stories touches and develops the intelligence below the level of senile dementia.

Krsna is Braja jana ranjana: He is enlivening the inhabitants of Vraja with ever newer and newer pastimes for His delight.

What will He arrange for us next!!!

Ready to play!
