stock market- ASA view point ?

ASA-e; Stock Market [s/a] gambling



Hare Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP


This is in continuation on phone call we had. Harsh jumped in to stock market, because only way it seems he can serve temples is to donate money. Though it is not his forte, but that's what he can see as "dovetail" service and training he has got.


However harsh remember's that HpS said, "hope you get confused", now if that is a blessing, then we will leave the stock market, as it is not recommended by you.



can you please clarify the same.

jumping monito


HpS - Thank you!!! What I have heard from devotees directly involved with Srila Prabhupada in these matters, he was not opposed to intelligent capital investment. He set up long term investment portfolios to provide funds for Mayapura and Vrndavana ISKCON. If you invest the companies and their history etc then investment is not gambling, but if you buy speculative stock on uranium mines in madagascar, that is gambling.

Best luck.

I am trying to justify at a talk that there are 8.4million species of life in the universe scientifically. 

Any help would be welcome.

Y i am Stanunathan from Houston originally Mumbai


HpS - ASA - Now we remember you better.

First here is a scientific definition of Species from the Encyclopedia Britannica which is respected by academics:

https://www.britannica.com/science/species-taxon

"Species, in biologyclassification comprising related organisms that share common characteristics and are capable of interbreeding. This biological species concept is widely used in biology and related fields of study. There are more than 20 other different species concepts, however. Some examples include the ecological species concept, which describes a species as a group of organisms framed by the resources they depend on (in other words, their ecological niche), and the genetic species concept, which considers all organisms capable of inheriting traits from one another within a common gene pool and the amount of genetic difference between populations of that species. Like the biological species concept, the genetic species concept considers which individuals are capable of interbreeding, as well as the amount of genetic difference between populations of that species, but it may also be used to estimate when the species originated."


HpS - ASA -- Beyond that we do not know why the Vedas give these divisions and numbers. I think they are divided into swimming, walking and flying entities. Criterion I don't know for the divisions and why how many in each one.

AGTSP!!

If you find out post the news here.

Dance

4 years, 6 months ago by hps in Special Category B

asa-e; dance


"Dance", so essential to Bhakti-yoga, is a 14th century French word, according to etymological dictionary online.

Pretty recent origin.

Previous word was from Latin. In Spanish, "Saltar", as seen in the English, "Salient".

Sanskrit, "nRtya" eg. "mahapraho kirtana nrtya gita" (Sad Goswami Astaka).


Usually described as "sequential movement", this questions the idea that our culture is predominated by a linear view of time, as opposed to a "be here now" iconographic, "Bhava".


Hare Krsna, Hare Rama!!

asa-e (section on laddu gopal below); Laddu Gopal


Hare Krsna querido Gurudev, acepte mis humildes y sinceras reverencias a sus santos pies de loto.


HpS - ASA - Piese de lobo?? 🐺


TlgSP!!!! HpS - !!!


Estas últimas dos semanas viajé a Orlando USA por invitación de Yasodanandanesvari y Vidusaka para conocer a Syam Krsna Gopal Das, perdone por no haberle informado, creí que no se concretaría el viaje por motivos de pandemia, llevamos 4 meses conociéndonos virtualmente y pasamos la fiesta del Señor Nrsimha haciendo servicio para la clase de SS Trivrikrama Maharaja, realizamos sadhana, fuimos al Templo de Naimisaranya en Miami, donde obtuvimos darsan de las deidades, luego viajamos a Alachua donde compartimos con devotos latinos, comunidad, muy hermosamente organizada, con deidades bellísimas y servicio muy determinado.


ASA - Esa es una oración larga. 💪 💪 👍 💪


Allí tuve la bendición de recibir a Gopal Laddu como regalo de una madre que es pujari y que me otorgó ese servicio para purificarme y avanzar en mi vida espiritual. Me autoriza Gurudev para servir a Laddu Gopal en mi sadhana matutino?


HpS - He is not exactly in our Sampradaya. As we worship Krsna with Radha, Pusti-marge sampradaya worship Krsna with Yasoda, and Laddu Gopala as their principle deity. There was a Laddu Gopala diety on the altar in Dehli temple but they decided He should only be present for Janmastami as we understand.

So, I would say it is nice on you personal altar, but not for the big institution. Talk with devotees about simple worship. If you take second initiation it can be more official.


También tomé darsan en el centro de prédica de Gainesville, las guirnaldas de jazmín del cabo realmente purificaron mi mente y mi corazón.


Luego viajamos a Santo Domingo, donde pude emocionarme con la dulzura de Sus Señorías Sri Sri Gaura Nitay y donde me conmoví mucho, muchísimo con la precariedad y austeridad del templo, ruego a Radha y Krsna que envíen a un matrimonio brahmana cualificado, entusiasta y con cualidades administrativas a aportar a ese Yatra.


Ya me encuentro en Chile haciendo la cuarentena en un hotel por 5 días por lo que he podido estar en FMP, leer, cantar, siento que estas realmente son unas vacaciones, ya que no he tenido quehaceres domésticos y donde me he alimentado adecuadamente.


He vuelto con muchos compromisos, que espero usted acepte como ofrenda, terminar el curso de discípulos que no concluí, pero que si tengo claro en mi corazón. Volver a asistir al pujari una vez a la semana y semana por medio quedarme para mangala Arati, también aportar cortando vegetales una vez a la semana en Alimentos Libres una ONG que se está concretando acá en Chile. Seguiré decorando para las fiestas de agosto ya y día a día tomar la santa asociación de FMP, cantar mínimo 16 rondas diarias Krsna mediante.


Con Cristóbal mi hijo aún intensionando mejoras para su vida, sigue rebelde, me comunique con Mandhara Sakha para que puedo apoyarlo y guiarlo con herramientas para su desarrollo positivo y solo me queda orar... Recordábamos a madre Saci con una devota mayor, sin embargo ella se purificaba con las proezas del Señor Caitanya.


Prepararme día a día para poder servir mejor en esta misión, donde muchas veces, no valoramos lo que tenemos hasta que lo perdemos y donde es bueno siempre agradecer lo que hay para que Radharani le diga a Krsna que estamos aquí para dar lo mejor de nosotros mismos en la casa que nos dejó Srila Prabhupada para vivir en el mundo.


Estamos leyendo con Syam el Canto 3 del Bhagavatam como instrucción suya a él, también estamos leyendo por las mañanas el Canto 1, para ir avanzando juntos y mejorando nuestra comprensión espiritual, él ha sido una potente inspiración para mi determinación y hábitos diarios devocionales🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼


Mis reverencias eternas Gurudev, felizmente agradecida y rendida a sus pies de loto.

Laksmiradha DD.


HpS - Keep advice from local devotees. 4-principles, 16-rounds.... !!! Perfection. Best wishes for your son!
