Dear Gurumaharaja, Please accept my humble obeisances, All glories to Srila Prabhupada, All glories to your service to the Sankirtan Movement
Isn't more clear moment than this to reflect upon our priorities in this Human form of life ; people is losing their bodies, their family members, their jobs and their security and so-called shelter. Nobody knows to whom to turn to, but you thought us perfectly to whom we have to turn to, to Sri Krishna and their associates.
All this had make me reflect how seriously i’m investing time in my sadhana and in Krishna’s Service.
I finished my Post Grad in Canada but with all the COVID situation I lost my job, my immigration status, and all our tours were cancelled. Fortunately I was traveling to Mexico to visit Ranchor just few days before Canada closed its borders. Now we both are at my Parents house Chanting Hare Krishna and trying to improve sadhana. For example: waking up @brahma muhurta chanting our 16R early in one sitting/asana [phone forbidden] and after that deity worship and morning Prayers for 1hr. My memory is not that great as Ranchor’s prabhu but I try to memorize words.
Gurumaharaja, i want to honestly and sincerely open my heart. I feel separation from my service and community in Houston. My independent mentality make me flicker in my services and I want to surrender that mentality, I want to remain fix in a service to you and your projects. I really belong to Nila madhava Dham, and I would like to serve there in Goswami Academy. Devotees who I consider shiksas and from whom I take inspiration are there.
HpS --- What does The Ranchor say!??? Your family? Krsna is only a picture passing though the lens of Srila Prabhupada. What does he say?
Please Gurumaharaja guide me, is very easy to get misguided from propaganda of getting money, professional status or just material stuff. We just need a community where Ranchor and I can associate and develop our capacities and to be honest I never believed that I can teach because i’m an untrained Sudra, but I know that if I have your blessing, Nilamadhava blessing, Subhra, CC at all the devotees I can be instrumental.
Sincerely yours,
Govinda Pramodini Dasi & Ranchor Krsna Das
HpS --- I don't know, but I think it is certainly O.K. to pray to Krsna and Prabhupada and get guidance. Things maybe changing fast. Krsna my want us to go to a different universe, back to Goloka! Get instrucions from Him daily.
