All Glories To You Guru dev

hope that the health of your eyes is better.

HpS - AgtSP!!!    Paoho......    You are very kind to write to us!     We hope that our eyes are better. Seems that resting them is important. They are maybe a little better.   How is your donkey.

we are here in the winter of cordoba cutting wood to heat the wood stove. 

to much dead trees help us to be warm.

HpS - They collect sunlight!

 i m accepting my karma to be humble and tolerant, also triying to contemplete the diferent situation. some are with to much dificulties, for example i continue with the house without bathroom , without some walls, i have to close it, etc but the main thing is the lonliness and the dificulties to organize preaching programs. may be the biggest obstacle it s myself. i m contempleting and i need better inteligence and sadhana to be with a better perspective. i continue with difficulties to be regular on wake up early and finish my rounds.

hari vamsi dhari is growing very well and happy, we dance, chant and worship the deitie together, same time the worship with him is dificult, he want to do what i do. 

a few weeks ago some devotees of another province (600 km from here) invite us to give a lecture and participate in a vaisnava festival.

they were happy with our service and want to visit regularly and help with the preaching there.

we are working with videos and edition, ( we are waiting for work now) and we star selling prasadam so that is a good service and help us to survive. 

please bless us to go to chile to have your asociation and be usuful in service.thank you

HpS - We just sent it to Kalyana Kumar and others.  You can see from Abhirama's letter and our response that A & the S is moving ahead!

what do you like to do with the Video Hanuman Goes to Lanka? (it s ok the video for you)

HpS - ASA -  It is very good.  We just now had a chance to see it!    It is very well done and maybe it will be useful to some people. It has been very useful for us.

We put the link here for those who want to see and use it.

Waiting for any suggestions for our service.

9th Report of THE ART AND THE SACRED

Hare Krishna Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada !!

All glories to Hanumatpresaka Swami !!

First of all, allow me to apologize for this long absence in sending reports to the Blog. I speak with you every week, but, I know that your communication and organization system of your Sankirtana revolves on the basis of the Blog, therefore, I sincerely ask you to excuse me for this long delay, I will try to be regular by sending reports every two weeks.

HpS - ASA -- Yes!   Thank you so so very much. I guess the main point is that we, Hanumatpresaka Swami, only have a small part in the organization these programs in the Anjana Suta Academy. We apologize that we have not been able to communicate that enough.

Especially in "Art and the Sacred", it very much depends on working with NIOS, as a branch of ASA. Unless we get regular coordination of the work through this Blog we will get into very big problems. Now with just three months until this program things are becoming crucial.  This work is so important for all of ISKCON. This program is one of the premier programs in all of ISKCON.

In relation to the advancement of ART AND THE SACRED, this is the program that we are advancing:

I INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ART AND THE SACRED

October 24, 25 and 26. Mario Vargas Llosa Auditorium, of the National Library of Peru.

PROGRAM

Next week we have a meeting with Ramón Mujica to refine the names of the Symposium days (welcome suggestions). And then with Miguel Polo to see the progress of SOLARIS No. 3, Krishna through, we hope to have the magazine ready in mid-September.

The brochure of THE ART AND THE SACRED have already been received by Beverley in Bogotá-Colombia, there they will distribute them in the VIII Latin American Congress of Jungian Psychology.

For the artistic presentations we have a good reception with the embassies of India, Japan (Flute and Harp) and China (Erhu, the Chinese violin), also our Sufi friend can present a dance of 10 minutes.

That is all for now. Hare Krishna respected Gurudeva, his insignificant servant, Abhiram Thakur das.

HpS - Yes, just 13-weeks to develop all of this. Even less since a lot of the work should be done in Solaris.
We sould suggest that we focus on Solaris to organize the participation, who will join us, and what will be the content of the Symposium.

Participation
We want to reach new people and get them involved with our programs, our ideas, our books, our community, our discussion. We want to involve the ISKCON National Council.

We want to develop more relations with old friends.

Content
You list the event as just these three days in the evenings. Won't there also be other pre-events and even events during the day?

Who has confirmed attendance? How will we host them?

Is your budget suficient?

Please send copies of the contract with the National Museum to the Blog. It is essential. We really HAVE to have these in your next report if we want NIOS to participate. They are a slow bunch in many ways.

We would suggest we start and finish each evening with a musical/dance item and then divide the rest of the evening into two parts as you have done, but we would suggest starting with a longer presentation, say 40-minutes with one presenter and then 20-minutes for questions and answers with the audience and the other participants. Of course, we want to have audio record of everything so we can make movies, articles for Solaris.

In the second half we have would suggest three panelists of twenty minutes each and then twenty minutes of questions and comments by other panelists and the audience.

Themes can answer Hector's three questions:

1. Describe the community with which you identify yourself.

2. Describe what is sacred in that community and

3. Describe how Art allows members of the community to realize the Sacred.

To this we could add the topics:

4. Describe how Art in your life and community, or in the life of some one else, for example, Stanislavskii,  has or is being used to realize the Sacred and to communicate the Sacred to others.

5. Can the world be happy, free from wars and violence, without profound realization of the Sacred through Art?

Esteemed Blog members. Please join in this project. Help the Thakura and his marvelous associates: Nitya-kishori, Luis Tunino et al.

Organize this Symposium in other places, Arrequipa, Chile.

We will arrive Lima about the 24th September. We would love to join other events for this topic in Lima and I think we would also go out to La Paz and Arrequipa. We are discussing this with Mathuresha Das.

What do the members of the National Council etc. think.

24th October we would go to Santiago and come back about one month later. Stay in Lima maybe only one or two nights.

Thank you again. Thank you for the pictures. Hope your family, body and business are go very well.

sincere, humbleservant, N

nigama.info

Fovaas, foundation-of-vedic-arts-and-sciences.org

feminine,  old, vaastu, arts, academy, society, girls' volley ball......

couchin, enough militancy for youth <img alt="cool" height="23" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/shades_smile.png" title="cool" width="23" />

HpS -  Ha!   Ha!    Ha!     Hare.    Now I would tend to think you are a robot as does Nama-acharya Das, but I saw you on a video conference once, quite handsome.

We don't deal with girl's volley ball.    Zero.    Bumper stickers: Have two ideas.

1)

Forget the damn dog

BEWARE OF GOD

2)

Better to Reign in Hell

Than Serve in Heaven

One for the marginal devotees to come in. The other for demons to increase their bravo. The second is from Paradise Lost.

Are you reading Bhagavata literatures regularly?
