Letters to the editor

Dear Guru Maharaj, 

We put a lot of efforts in to arrange the calendar to inform you, but we couldn't post yesterday, and in our meeting, Arjuna told me that we should write just about Art and the Sacred before. So we are here doing it.

I have attached .png picture with a large mind map with the timings, day by day, is more visual but is 4mb., So here is a .pdf version in the nube with the text used in the mind map also, and at the end of the document is the text. Also here is the .png. (so no image attached)

You always say that people are first and then the other things, so We start with people first:

Paula Miranda - You already know about her. She will present the same topic that in Lima (Violeta Parra)

Hanumatpresaka Swami

Day 1  DELEITE CONTEMPLATIVE, MEMORIES AND FEELINGS OF A PILGRIM

Day 3 The influence of the Bhagavata Purana in the eastern world

PROGRAM

Day 1 - Corporación Cultural de Las Condes

La experiencia poética y la música de la trascendencia

Same place last year. 200 people capacity.

We will have Claudia Lira, Paula Miranda and Denis Kolovob. We are thinking to have your participation with the same conference that you will have in Peru. Our plan is 30 minutes to everyone and 5 minutes for you, considering the translation. What do you think?

Day 2 - Cine Arte Normandie

Un ejemplo de la espiritualidad de oriente en el 7º Arte

Very nice Cinema. We had the  600 people capacity.

"Cine a Luca" Luca is a colloquial way to say 1000 Chilean pesos. Our friend Mildred Doll, manager of this cinema is agreed. She was interested in to have the Hare Krishna movie there. So, we took advantage of the Bhaktibusana Swami and managed an event to relaunching the movie in this new cinema. Almost 300 people go there, paying 2.000 Chilean pesos (3 USD) in the first day. And last week we were invited to participate in the installation of deities there. A lady was there, chanting the maha-mantra, helping. And she met de devotees in this cinema in this event. Mildred is mature lady very close with the cultural scene in Santiago and Chile in general. He likes Krsna a lot.

Prior to the movie, Cristian Contreras would present the value nowadays of the Vedas. He have spoke on TV about this.

The idea is to replicate the program with Bhaktbusana Swami, and is that you answer the question of the journalist or the public directly due your direct connection as a disciple of the main person of the documentary. We are thinking in invite a lot of people because is almost free but is not. Our calling would be more to be more massive than academic.

Day 3 - Teatro iF

La Divina Literatura y la Estética de Oriente

This is the place where I work. A collaborative platform of entrepreneurship and innovation. Cool neighbourhood, a lot of designed and nice stores. 

350 people capacity.

This is the last day, and there is an event at noon at the same place, so we can't star too much early, we put 7pm. This day will be Raúl Zurita, Cecilia Montero and you. The idea is the format here change a little bit in relation to the formal and academic of the Tuesday. The idea is to have a more conversational mood. So, after the talks, the idea is to have a conversation with question promoted by Cristian Contreras or another journalist.

Our original proposal, considering that we thought the triad about ART and THE SACRED: First Day; Theory, Second Day; Analysis of Praxis, Third Day; Live the Art. In this context, we proposed for you, the second day and the topic would be the influence of the Bhagavata Purana in art and culture of the eastern world.  But, we had changes of places and different things, so put this new subtitles in grey. So, you could say now what would be your suggestion in this dilemma, what do you preferer present this day?

And finally, Our idea is to have a big and short concert at the end with several instruments also. And Maha Mantra even at the end. Or just instrumental from the professional devotees. What do you think?  

Thank you so much for letting us serve despite our deficiencies. Arjuna, Rodrigo and Carlos are putting a lot of effort into this program. Now Piero is participating too and the whole spiritual family here is anxious to become part and help. We will mention in another post.

Regards.

Hare Krsna.

= ========== v

 AgtSP We don't have any practical knowledge of the influence of the SB in Asia. Other topic might be … ART AS MEDITATION AND MEDITATION AS RELIGION.

 The list and description of the patients and their contributions seems good, although we could not read It in detail.

 Which books will we have for distribution, TLC? NO IKK 

Hare Krsna Dear Maharaja Hanumatpresaka Swami;

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
HpS - ASA --- Please forgive us for not answering this sooner. We had INTENSE trip back from Madrid and immediately we had intense work with our accountant for the government filings for NIOS and INTENSE local Sankirtan festival with Indradyumna Swami's 40-man troupe visiting and... but this topic is important.

I hope your health is strength,

HpS - Actual our 'energy' is little low and our pitta element is out of balance, but we are fighting to correct it.

. . . I’m writing for ask about a issue thats worries me, some devotees support the abortion law and do public comments in internet stating their approval. Some months ago I ask to Baladeva Prabhu (our communication leader in ISKCON Arg) to elaborate an article which explain our position about the abortion topic, based on Srila Prabhupada speak about that.

I’ve talk with our GBC, H. H. Srila Virabahu Maharaja, about that and he told me “nobody who support the abortion law, can be recommended for initiation” His Hollines supervise personally, to all members of “administrative head” don’t be in favor of abortion.

I want to ask because in the list for formalize the refugee, one devotee from here want to get it, but we cannot recommend if these person continue supporting that law.

How do you explain it to your disciples?

HpS - ASA --  Well if the GBC Secretary has made this rule then we have to follow it, of course it is an administrative rule and if don't agree we can talk with him and then if we still don't agree we can go three othe GBCs then the Executive Committee. I know devotees who have done this and won their case.

On the other had there is the philosophical perspective. I can give my ideas for anyone who wants to look at us as their teacher.

In SB 1.9, Bhismadeva tells Yuddhisthira how to administer th kingdom. In the purport Srila Prabhupada says that the Brahmanas should know Manu samhita and Parasara's dharma sastras in order to give advice to the Kings. I found a copy after hard research and then I heard Srila Prabhupada quoting from it in room conversations.

Parasara gives different atonements for different sins but when he comes to abortion, for that girl who voluntarily aborts her own embryo, he says that for this there is no atonement possible. She should be reject from her  community and what to speak of talking with her, anyone even looks at her becomes sinful.

It seems to be the same as killing cows.

One of our disciples in Mexico's wife's embryo was miscarrying and the doctors were recommending abortion. We talked about it. They said that if the degredation of the embryo advance it could kill the mother also. Our suggestion was that she should wait for as long as she felt secure, because there was a small chance the embryo would recover, and then have the abortion.

So there are different circumstances.

It is killing someone.

If the girl was with her father and three guys knocked him unconscious in a descent place and raped her then maybe it is justified in that situation also, Parasara gives details.

Was she willing, was she protected by her family, what is the charater of the father?

That is all we know. Besides Parasara I think the same idea is there in Srila Prabhupada's direct books.  Of course, Brahmana means that we are always ready to learn something new.

Do they consult you?

HpS - Sometimes. On this topic, no.

I hope I do not take much time from you and I am very grateful to you Maharaja.

Hare Krsna

Your servant Nitai Gaurananda das

HpS - ASA - SIGUE LA TRADUCCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL. Muchas gracias. Gracias por las llamadas telefónicas. Acabamos de hablar con Radhika y él está comprando estos boletos. Tiene que irse de una clase y, aun así, con las mejores conexiones llegará la noche 24 y luego se irá el sábado por la noche, pero eso significa tres días completos para su participación. Él también está trabajando en su artículo para Solaris.

Como discutimos, sería mejor imprimir algunos de los artículos más poéticos en inglés y luego dar una traducción resumida simple en español para cada párrafo señalando palabras especiales.

Debe haber un adelanto de las publicaciones de NIOS al dorso de cada número.
