ASA[e] Guru-tattva; Death of Guru
"Dear Maharaj,
PAMHO AGTSP!
In exchange for my Tapasya, I ask Krsna today for more years in your life Guru Maharaj. If Krsna has brought Pralaya in my life, and I must save and bring everything good from this land of India, and cross the oceans and settle a new land, a new age, He has to give me the sages to help. Without you, I’m clueless 🙏🏻. I would like to bring you with me as well back from India this year 🙏🏻. This is what I ask Krsna in return for everything He has taken, Guru Maharaj.
YAS,
TN D
HpS/ASA --- AgtSP. Paoho. You should read the "Phaedo". Socrates discusses the same points.

Also, in the Chapter, 'Puranjana Becomes A Woman' there is great discussion of death of guru when Vidarbi's (?) husband leaves his body.
Brother Ass was 40% deaf in August 2023. I think he is at least 50% deaf now in May 2024. So, planning for his complete failure by December 2024 is not impractical. Weather man says 85% chance of rain starting at 1PM so we carry an umbrella.
Maybe we will be in this body until we are 200-years old.
Maybe by the wishes of pious good ladies we will recover our hearing.
I don't know.
Yet, in general, there will always be someone 35 when the elder dies at 75 but he will leave books, etc, and then if the relationship is spiritual then it can go to the immortal level.
When there is Vapu we take advantage of it.
When there is not we focus on Vani.
Many more aspects to this but have to deal with NIOS letter for all of our benefit now.
Will look at the Blog posts later.
Thank you! More Blog-blog-dialog to come!

ASA - Sriman Basu Gosh Das, thank you for the letter:
One point that really grounds us in the discussions of racism, feminism, nationalism in ISKCON is that first we want to distinguish who is Kanistha, Madhyama or Uttama Adhikari in the discussion. If we are talking with/about an Indian, black, woman devotee then we want to know if s(he)it is Kanistha, Madhyama or Uttama Adhikari.
Other point is that Diksa is for us a very [Daivi] Varna-ashrama Dharma position, so if a woman is doing it, then it must be under the protection of her father, husband, grown up son.
Especially for such a role, the Guru must be proper example of an initiated devotee.
When a we think of her in a public relation, it must be obvious to us who is her protector.
For example, Mother Urmilla Devi Dasi, Mother Narayani Devi Dasi, Mother Rukmini Devi Das, are all Gurus to us.
Yet it is not obvious to us under whose protection they are acting in our institution. As a Sannyasi we would really only want to communicate with them under the glance of their protectors. ... Mother Uttama Devi Dasi of the Grhasta Vision team is so much under the protection of my friend, her husband, Partha Das, that I feel communicating with one is communicating with the other... Make any sense?

Hare Krsna Gurudeva,
We were hoping that we would get answer of reports.
HpS - 😟 Yes! We have been struggling with our own laziness and limited ability, and seem to be making some progress to toward that goal. That is why we deny having lotus feet. We hope to be one of many avenues to our Guru, ISKCON Founder Acharya Srila Prabhupada.
We pray that you are getting his association through his books, disciples, the Lord in the Heart, and by using us, even though a limited tool.
Even though we know that you are on the journey towards spontaneous bhakti, though maybe not manifest. Its better to assume as you wrote in Guru-Tattva.txt
We will just summarize, we are sticking to four rules strictly, and some manage to chant.
we also did not want to write because their nothing is inspiring to reads, same problem, same issue, even more aggravating.
HpS - "Contributing or distributing the holy name of the Lord is a sublime example of contributing or giving charity (the dadāti principle)." https://vedabase.io/en/library/noi/4/#bb5907
You can always post the maha-mantra. you can even use different colors etc.
Monkey and Piggy will read it to our ASA Deitys!
our mind rambling is of no help. however on 25 March 2024, the way you checked our chanting,
ASA - Was what? ❓ Impertinent, useful, confussing? Did your mind wander from the rest of the sentence?
..our four rules are intact, Japa has dwindled over 4 months especially in quality, we are maintaing four rules by subtle enjoymets [enjoyments], of history, interviews etc.
ASA - 🐵 send us some of the nice links. We can, must, see KRSNA in our passions. Eg. Krsna says that He is the ability in man, among men he is the monarch. so reading Ramayana is perfect but reading about great historical figures has its utility. Merit. for us fallen 🐶.
we some how implement the idea that communicating with you very essential.
we our getting bogged down, on thought of our VAD situation, basic prasad, sudden crying, adrenaline rush etc.
ASA - Tell us about it! We are still at about C+ in honoring Prasadam. Yet, this is Kaliyuga, so maybe all we can hope for is B+.
Some days we get A scores.
we now prominsing to chant one breath one mantra, for at least 24 minutes. and then chant 16 rounds somehow.
HpS/ASA - I think that may cause hyper-ventilation. Try as many Mantras as you can on one breath. Maybe even a few after your lungs are empty.
https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/3/28/9/#bb26345
we dont know how to maintain even out [our] body....... somehow we think that your Holiness has seen something that he has given inti[ti]ation.
HpS - You passed the test. 🙂 For 1st initiation.
on the other hand we have got introduced to Saint whom we have been hearing , who focuses on Nama-Japa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CNldKCGK80&t=29s
We are finding him more helpful than IKSCON [ISKCON?] execpt [except] you.
HpS/ASA - He speaks in a "funny" language!!! Does he say the Name of Krsna?
Yeah, IKSCON, is kind of a perverted form of ISKCON. Then there are not perverted, but just neophyte forms of ISKCON eg. ISKCON Life Membership Programs.
They can be nice. They can be neophyte pure devotees, but they are not required to follow the standard of Srila Prabhupada's initiated disciples.
I don't know if I will disappoint you.
HpS - I am constantly disappointing our Guru, Srila Prabhupada, but he does praise us for some things we do.
What percentage of people in our social/psychological group of Indians follow the four principles?
Chant any Japa, under the authority of Saint like Srila Prabhupada?
We recommend readers to Hear : Self Love worskhops my H. G. Mahatama Prabhu other workshop https://mahatmadas.com/workshops-courses-devotees/
we are determined not to disappoint you.

HpS - We have been friends for many years. Hope we continue forever. Going to your next letter.
Thank you!!!!
