AgtSP. Paoho. We have seen your two large books on NOI, An Ocean of Gauras prema amrta krpa. We have been studying and teaching NOI for decades. We have developed study guides, PowerPoint shows. From Intro to Bh. Vedanta. Your books are a great resource. If we can be of any help to you or know more about your projects let us know.

Hare Krishna, Hanumat Presaka Maharaja,

Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and your service to his educational mission.

So glad you find the Gaura-premamrta-krpa (NOI) books helpful. If senior Vaisnavas like yourself are pleased with my insignificant and imperfect attempts at devotional service, that is my perfection. Many thanks for your kind words of encouragement.

With you in service at Srila Prabhupada’s divine lotus-feet,

Srimati Dasi

P.S. Maharaja I would be very interested in any resources you have developed for teaching NOD, and would be most grateful for soft copies of the same if at all possible. Many thanks.

AGTSP paoho. We have been struggling, struggling, struggling with our institutional efforts to contact Dr. Shamdasani et al to push forward our dialog between Jung and the Bhagavata. Bhati Vijnana Swami told us once, "Jung is essential for our preaching!" but so many difficulties. So, we are finally just writing a letter from our actual lowly position to him with copy to esteemed!!! Professor Bernardo Nante.

Esteemed Prof. Shamdasani,

We hope you remember us. We were the Bengali Sannyasi who gave you the Laddus and a copy of our magazine, Solaris, when you were on stage in Buenos Aires with the very poweful Prof. Bernardo Nantes. Later we were able to participate in the programs in Cordoba.

We have been developing East-West bridges with National Museum of India, Govenors of West Bengal, three day excellent Seminars on Contribution of Ancient India Toward Making a Better World,

National Library of Peru, Psychology and the Sacred,

San Marcos University (oldest in the Western hemisphere), Lima,

And ISKCON (now with one million members).

Our most active title is "Science, Psyche and Spirituality: The Encounter of Prof. C. G. Jung with the Mysticism of Ancient India".

We would love to converse with you for any given time, but we feel that you are far too busy for that, and would like to know if there is anyone you can recommend who is conversant with Jung's cosmology, development of this ideas, and would resonate with integrating these with Indian, Caitanya Vaisnavism, for general illumination of this world.

As a common academic standard there are texts such as Prof. David Haberman's translation of the 15th century, Bhakti-rasa-amrta-sindhu, of Rupa Goswami and of course, our Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami's, translations.

We will be in Argentina in April and hope to continue work in this area with Prof. Bernardo Nantes et al. He has been essential inspiration to us, and guided us most recently, to "Jung in India". Of course, in this effort we have read "Jung and the Making of Modern Psychology" et al.

Thank you so much for any time and direction in this matter.

(Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, after reviewing all of the major Western philosophers commented with some intensity, that amongst all of them Carl Jung seemed to have the most common sense!)

Please accept my humble obeisances.

We have started the process of indexing SOLARIS in the international sphere of academic and scientific publications. This implies editing two numbers a year (minimum) one in June and another one in December. In addition, the articles are going to be evaluated to guarantee contents of high quality. Our research area revolves around the development of the human spirit cultivation. This indexing allows SOLARIS to be listed in a worldwide query database. This will make the magazine have a higher and higher impact factor.

SOLARIS indexing offers several advantages:

• Much greater world visibility.

• Access to the magazine from various places in the world (in fact, we have started in LATINDEX, which is a regional online information system for magazines in Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal).

• Use by the academic community. To measure the use that the community has given to an article, it is used an indicator called IMPACT FACTOR that relates to the number of citations that the article receives from other uses.

• Stimulates the location of peers, which allows academics from other parts of the world who are investigating the same or similar topics to commit to our projects.

• It is achieved a greater exchange about our research at national and international level, and with this, greater progress and depth is also achieved related to the study and knowledge of human development and spirituality, in general, and to the cultivation of the human spirit, in particular.

SOLARIS RUMBO A LA INDEXACION

Hare Krishna respetado Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias

¡Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada!!

¡Todas las Glorias a Hanumatpresaka Swami!!

Hemos empezado el proceso de indexar SOLARIS en el circulo internacional de las publicaciones académicas y científicas, esto implica editar dos números al año (es lo mínimo) uno en junio y otro en diciembre, además ahora los artículos van a ser evaluados para avalar contenidos de alta calidad. Nuestra área de investigación gira en torno al desarrollo del cultivo del espíritu humano. Esta indexación permite que SOLARIS este listada en una base de datos de consulta a nivel mundial, esto hará que la revista tenga un mayor y más elevado factor de impacto

La indexación de SOLARIS nos ofrece varias ventajas:

·        Mucha mayor visibilidad mundial.

·     Acceso a la revista desde diversos sitios del mundo (de hecho, hemos empezado en LATINDEX, que es un sistema regional de información en línea para revistas de América Latina, el Caribe, España y Portugal).

·        Uso por parte de la comunidad académica. Para medir el uso que la comunidad le ha dado a un artículo, se suele utilizar un indicador que se relaciona con la cantidad de citas que recibe el artículo por parte de otros usuarios, esto se denomina FACTOR DE IMPACTO,

·        Estimula la localización de los pares, lo cual permite que académicos de otras partes del mundo que estén investigando el mismo tema o temas similares se comprometan con nuestros proyectos.

·     Se consigue un mayor intercambio a nivel nacional e internacional sobre nuestras investigaciones y con ello se logra mayor avance y profundidad en el estudio y conocimiento del desarrollo humano y espiritualidad, en general y del cultivo del espíritu humano, en particular.

Eso es todo por ahora, Hare Krishna querido Gurudeva, su insignificante sirviente, Abhiram Thakur das. 

Hare Krishna Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

All glories to Hanumatpresaka Swami!!

Before starting this report, I want to apologize for the delay of the report, I am trying to be a good servant, but there is still a long way to go.

HpS - Ohhhh! Again and again we say this to Srila Prabhupada, to everyone. We think that maybe we are the second worse devotee in ISKCON.

We have tried, for several weeks and in several ways, to reach a cooperation agreement between NIOS and CEAS (UNMSM Center for Asian Studies) for EDUCATION AND THE SACRED 2020, in the end it did not result because the study centers cannot subscribe agreements of this type.

Then, we have resumed the process to make an Agreement of Academic and Cultural Cooperation THE EDUCATION AND THE SACRED 2020-2021 with the Faculty of Letters and Human Sciences of the National University of San Marcos. The General Office of Cooperation and Interinstitutional Relations-OGCRI of the university has already issued its favorable opinion, but, has asked us for some additions for final approval. We hope that this process will be completed in a month or before your arrival in Peru in April.

HpS - That is why frequent communication is good because we can help with decisions. Maybe it would have been better to give up the focus on these events with San Marcos and focus on something else. Hmmm. Yet, there is no loss in going ahead with the agreement with San Marcos. As always the magazine before the symposia.

To give the necessary formality to the convening of the II INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM, EDUCATION AND THE SACRED 2020 we have developed a DECLARATORY OF WILL OF PARTICIPATION which will be signed by the CEAS and NIOS as ORGANIZERS and by the Embassy of India, The Faculty of Education from the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, Antonio Ruiz de Montoya University, ASIRI-Peru and Montessori-Peru as SPONSORS.

HpS - We sent it back to you today with one very important correction. Did you get it?

Considering his arrival in April we are making arrangements to make Dialogues and Round Tables with the sponsors based on THE EDUCATION, THE SACRED and THE GOOD GOVERNMENT, we are also talking with prabhu Karuna Krishna about Rama-Navami on April 2 in Chosica. In the Next report we will make a detailed proposal of the calendar.

HpS - O.K. It is only five weeks until we get to Lima! Who will join the Rama-navami festival from ISKCON and outside? What do you want to do? How will it relate to Solaris?

That's all for now, in another report we are communicating the progress of SOLARIS No 5.

Hare Krishna respected GURU-MAHARAJA, his insignificant servant, Abhiram Thakur das.

LA EDUCACION Y LO SAGRADO 2020 – AVANCES

Antes de empezar este informe quiero disculparme por la demora del mismo, estoy tratando de ser un buen sirviente, pero, aun falta mucho camino que recorrer.

Hemos tratado, por varias semanas y de varias maneras, lograr un acuerdo de cooperación entre NIOS y el CEAS (Centro de Estudios Asiáticos de la UNMSM) para LA EDUCACIÓN Y LO SAGRADO 2020, al final no resulto porque los centros de estudios no pueden suscribir convenios de este tipo.

Entonces, hemos retomado el trámite para hacer un Acuerdo de Cooperación Académico y Cultural LA EDUCACIÓN Y LO SAGRADO 2020-2021 con la Facultad de Letras y Ciencias Humanas de la Universidad Nacional mayor de San Marcos. La Oficina General de Cooperación y Relaciones Interinstitucionales-OGCRI de la universidad ya emitió su opinión favorable, pero, nos ha pedido algunos añadidos para la aprobación definitiva. Esperamos que este trámite concluya en un mes o antes de su llegada a Perú en abril.

Para darle la formalidad necesaria a la convocatoria del II SIMPOSIO INTERNACIONAL, LA EDUCACIÓN Y LO SAGRADO 2020 hemos elaborado una DECLARATORIA DE VOLUNTAD DE PARTICIPACIÓN la cual será suscrita por el CEAS y NIOS como ORGANIZADORES y por la Embajada de la India, La Facultad de Educación de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, la Universidad Antonio Ruiz de Montoya, ASIRI-Perú y Montessori-Perú como AUSPICIADORES. 

Considerando su llegada en abril estamos haciendo arreglos para hacer Diálogos y Mesas Redondas con los auspiciadores en base a LA EDUCACIÓN, LO SAGRADO y EL BUEN GOBIERNO, también hemos conversado con prabhu Karuna sobre Rama-navami el 2 de abril en Chosica, en el próximo informe le haremos una propuesta detallada del calendario.

Eso es todo por ahora en otro informe estamos comunicando los avances de SOLARIS No 5.

Hare Krishna respetado GURU-MAHARAJA, su insignificante sirviente, Abhiram Thakur das.

Todas las Glorias a Srila Prabhupada

Todas las Glorias a Usted querido Guru Maharaja.

Por favor acepte mis rendidas reverencias. 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

Deseo su salud este mucho mejor 🙂 y oramos constantemente a Lord Nrsmhadeva para que le otorgue su protección.

HpS - AGTSP. Es diferente pero no mucho mejor. Realment dolor del pecho y falta de latigos a veces.

Escribo para dos asuntos:

1- En mi carta anterior le pregunte si podía tener una copia del diario de pigui y monkey, así que usted me pidió que le envíe mi e-mail y dirección postal. A continuación envío los datos:

E-mail: [email protected]

Postal: xxx

(La madre Natyelli me hará favor de recibir, por lo que si le parece bien, le ruego lo envíe a nombre de ella.)

Por favor disculpe la tardanza en responder, no quise escribir antes porque sé que tiene muchas cartas por responder y no deseo molestarle.

HpS - Si!! Estivimos esforzando enviar DTC a Vd. Pero el correro aqui dice la paquetes a Mexico son horribles. UPS no mas envia. Muchas veces no llegando o llegando despues de semanas! Entonces necesitamos hacer otro arregla.

2- Vi el archivo "hanuman-sita-asokavan", traducido al ingles por prabhu Radhika Raman.

(https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/10826/)

Pense que sería genial tenerlo en español. Madre Natyelli lo tradujo y editó... Por lo que, esperando sea útil, le enviamos el enlace del archivo en español.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aHOzRDp6OSZ4oTXEKoPTAZIbJ3Y2fvm_/view?usp=drivesdk

HpS - Esforzando para cinco minutos pero mi computador es en Repair y no puedo hacer con esta cellular! Espero hacer despues de unos dias. Super!!!!

Muchas gracias por ocuparnos Guru Maharaja, es solo por su misericordia sin causa que seguimos en la batalla, recordando sus palabras "no estas perdiendo hasta que dejas de intentarlo"...

Muchas Gracias Guru Maharaja. 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

Su torpe aspirante a sirviente

Karuna-sakti DD

HpS - ASA ---- Gracias!!!!!
