AGTSP, PAMHR
Dear Guru Mahajaraja, here Madhu from Chile.
I hope you are doing very well in these days of a Pandemic.
I will try to report my last 10 years:
I had to abruptly leave ISKCON about 10 years ago more or less.
After the JPS Stroke I was left without protection from GBC, RGB and TP attitude towards me, even came a point where I even received physical violence in the form of kicks from an very senior administrator.
Many spiritual leaders publicly cut me off from verbal and social association in a systematic way from Chile, even using Photoshop, invented that I drugged myself and bathed naked with many women.
We were with Panchali for very lonely and sad years, but it was an incredible training for what was to come.
Five years ago we officially started our activity in Krishna West together with HDG, who has given us a lot of confidence and inspiration.
Today we manage many KW programs in Sudamerica together with Panchali, KW Mexico, and KW Chile.
We call our KW program in Chile Bhakti yoga Club. In this project that we started completely alone, Panchali and I have already made 120 new bhaktas in the last year of which about 20 chant 16 rounds or more and many several people chant a few rounds daily.
To summarize here is a list of the programs we run and maintain:
- 6 BV cells
- morning japa 5 am every day
- Bhagavatam 8 am every day
- Bhagavad gita in the evenings 3 days a week
- YouTube TV channel
- International distribution magazine, "Ekadasi Times"
- Home Schooling Education Program for children. "Without Blackboard"
- Sadhana program for the afternoon 20 hrs. Monday through Thursday, this includes Kirtan, Japa, and reading.
- Workshops every Saturday on a Vaisnava topic
- Open talks for the society on spirituality issues every Sunday.
- Bhakti Yoga Club for Universities
- Member Care Mentoring Program
- Abuse prevention department inside and outside the community
- Active distribution of Prabhupada Books, this month alone we delivered 5 Bhagavatam collections and more than 40 BG within our community.
- Leadership training once a week
We are also promoting our future sustainable ecological project outside of Santiago.
I am also developing together with Param Padam Prabhu and other Vaisnavas, a Magister in theology to introduce in the universities.
In a future letter I will report the activities we are doing at the South American level.

HpS - Wow! Srila Prabhupada, Ki Jai! It is very nice to hear from you. You letter came to our Yahoo account, which we can't answer too much. We only use it for private discussions after we deal with things generally here in the Blog.
Please write here using the protocal mentioned in the Kapi Dhvaja.
There are many "ISKCONs", no? One is the institution with Temple President, GBC structure. If that is not correct then write to me, us here! Then there is the ISKCON that is the community of friends, and also the ISKCON that is our personal relationship with Srila Prabhupada.
Krsna West as far as I know is a part of the ISKCON Institution in Latin America.
In Kali-yuga Institutions are always with problems, but Sankirtan partys can be great.
How can we serve you??
