Radha Krsna Ki Jay, Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu Ki Jay. Goura bhakta brinda Ki Jay

Dandavat Pranam,

Please accept my humble obeisances unto Guruji Maharaja's padamachran that I am so sorry, that I could not write and response timely. Now we are planning to form a new committee after expire of the old committee period. Next Sunday, the Nanda Utsav day we will go and try to form the new committee. We had requested time and again but the Secy. is not take up the necessary formalities for conducting a general body meeting.

HpS - It is Kali yuga! Even in Treta yuga there was Ravana!!! Ooof! But Vibhisana was a devotee and had his Sanga even in Lanka. He said that being a devotee of Visnu in Lanka was like being a tongue surrounded by sharp teeth. How are our disciples, your daughter and son-in-law.

My chanting activities is improving and continuing 16 or more rounds. Sometimes tearing in my eyes remembering the wrong deeds in my life and requesting for pardon.

HpS - Yes, and not do more stupid things now!! I feel same way. AGTSP!!!

Now, I am reading 10.33.6 ; Purport - Srila bhakti Siddhanta Sarasvati Thakura states that Devaki, besides being the name of Vasudeva's wife, is also a name of mother Yasoda, as stated in the Adi Purana "The wife of Nanda has two names - Yasoda and Devaki". Please explain the underlying ideas.

HpS - Oooof! I do not know! I've heard that they are such good friends that they have almost the same name. It means like worshippable by the Devas?

• What about the janma lila of Subhadra, the sister of Krsna and Balarama? From which book we may get the interesting story of Subhadra? Is She the wife of Arjuna?

HpS - Yes, she is Maha maya if we are bad and Yoga maya if we are good. I only know of Her as she is mentioned in the Krsna book. She was born from Yasoda and exchanged with Krsna.

• How to improve the last one of the 10 nama aparadha ?

HpS - Prabhupada one time said that we should just do it!! Many techniques. See what works, walking while chanting is good for attention for some, not for others. Of course, more attention early in the day! Just try and good ideas will come!

Yours fallen servant,

Yamunesvara Das

HpS - You are so kind to write to us. We really hope to see you soon. Now we go!
