Regarding transcription

10 years, 2 months ago by nataraj in Personal Sadhana Reports, Special Category B

Hare Krishna dear guru maharaj,

Please accept my dandavat pranams, All glories to Srila Prabhupad.

The NOI audio files are good maharaj, it is helping me to  understand the value of  upadesamritha. I am deeply thankfull for giving me the oppertunity to transcribe. 

I have been able to get up at 4AM, but after taking hot water shower, doing guru puja and  6 rounds, I am feeling sleepy  and going back to sleep at around 6AM and getting up again at 7AM. I normally am doing 6-7 rounds in the morning and rest of them I am doing while driving to work  or sometimes in the evening. 

I was able to chant 16 rounds in the morning, if I was not taking hot water shower maharaj. 

I am reading 1 verse of Bagavatham daily and doing service at the temple on weekend.  I am making progress on transcription and job is going fine maharaj. I am looking for a nice paying governement job near home, so that I can be little more relaxed in my life and chant better rounds.

Please take care of your health maharaj.

your servant

HpS - ASA - AGTSP. You are transcibing the second class? How far have you gotten. What about taking a cool-water bath. Bh.Vinode Thakura would have supper at 6PM. Take rest for 2-hours and then say good night to the rest of the family. Stay up all night writing, and then take nap just before breakfast.

Many Services and Bad Japa

Hare Krishna gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
All glories to you!

How are your health?

HpS - AGTSP!!! About the same yours will be when your donkey turns 66-years!<img alt="cheeky" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/tongue_smile.png" title="cheeky" width="23" />   Good preparation for death and other delights. Hope your Rathyatra is SUPER!

I want to tell you I’m very focused on service and I realized that I’m not reading and I’ve lost my concentration in my japa. I never leave to chant but I can’t chant good rounds because I’m on passion modality all the time,

  • thinking about pendings things that I have to do,
  • thinking about new things to do,
  • thinking about to preach non-devotees,
  • thinking about atitudes that I have to change,
  • thinking about attitudes that I have to improve,
  • analyzing myself to be better,
  • trying to make strong relationships, and
  • thinking about what devotees teach me with their attitudes.

I think also that If I try to act in the goodness modality like I did before, I couldn’t do all the service that I want to.

ASA - Oink! -- It's all service! [{(We will now give to you a Secret Mantra that is hiden from all the Vedas. Don't share it with anyone)}}

And Krishna is giving to me the opportunity to do all these service, so I can't neglects them. It’s hard to me looking for a balance. Sometimes I feel too anxious and can not focus in my japa.
I remember my spiritual master said that Krishna sees our effort even if we are not chanting good. He sees our effort to chant better. But sometimes I don’t put any effort to chant because I want to finish my rounds quick to do more service. I don’t have any taste. How can i understand this if the chanting is considered as a service to Krishna too?

HpS - Answer above, no? And how to get the BG 10.10 mentioned, there? [[[Call "Hare Krsna, Hare Rama"}}} If you chant minimum 16-nice rounds on beads then ALLL the other services will improve at the maximum possible speed!


On the other hand, I want to read again like I used to, but I can't find the time to do it.
I put all my energy in the service, sleeping little bit, and when I have a "free" moment I'm so tired, without energy that I only want to take a rest and even trying to read, I fall asleep.

How can I looking for a balance ? I'm happy doing service but I think that my whole sadhana is not the best.

I'm very happy and anxious to see you on January! :)

My respects,

Hare Krshna!

ys,

Belen.

ASA - Milk, milk to quench His thirst. Which one shall I get for Krsna first?

urgent journal access

hare krsna maharaj, pamho

we saw in DTC 35$ for journal accesss. you can give us the articles name we can do for u. IITB must be able to access it

regards,
harsh 

HpS - ASA - - - A G T S P !   paoho, thank you, but we can also go to Vanderbuilt University (VU) and at least get free reading access. Maybe printing access for free, but that does take about an hour trip and costs about $15, but we can also do other work the same time, but if you can do it with no strain on your baby-milk-money then that is O.K. If there is some expense we could even pay for it from NIOS somehow or other.

Article for BTG Brazil

10 years, 7 months ago by hps in Special Category B

We had an opportunity to present a seminar on Vastu-veda to the graduate students at a university in Mendocino, Argentina. Our host was the Assistant Dean of Architecture, and as it turned out we were born the same year. As we got to know each other, over the following few days, I was rather shocked how Krsna seemed to be showing me, through this very esteemed professor, exactly what I would have become if I had not met Srila Prabhupada.

He was a very nice person, a good person. He had a sense of humor and a broad sense of knowledge and wisdom. His children were also students at the university and he was popular with both the students and his colleagues.

He took off his wrist-watch Friday afternoon and did not put it back on until Monday morning. He waved to me as he and a student crammed into the box in the back of a two-seater sports car while his daughter and her boy-friend sat in the front and zoomed off for some youth event.

Before we met Srila Prabhupada spiritual life was like a dull glow from the world around us. We could see that there were forms but there was no practical perception of their details. When we got Srila Prabhupada’s KRSNA book and the association of his ISKCON then gradually all the luminosity came up to a real intensity.

If we had not met him we would not have become an alcoholic nor bank robber. We would have had some religious affiliation, but we would not have had any intensity in our lives. We would not have even had the real chance for clear intellectual understanding of God and religion to actually achieve immortality.

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.
