Hare Krsna dear Gurumaharaja

Please accept our humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

My apologies for not submitting my annual report on time. After the symposium finished, I had to catch up with a lot of pending work, so I just sent it to you.

HpS - Thank you!!!

• Maha mantra: 99% (sometimes I have deep emotions , other times a parade of petty sentiments, useless ideas and memories).
• Four principles: 99% (some problems with the amount of food).
• Gayatri Mantra: 90% (sometimes I can't chant because of work).
• Deity worship: daily attention at lunchtime (bhoga and aratik). Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra / Sri Nrsimha and Ananta deva / Gaura Nityananda, the life of our life.

HpS - They like your home? !

• Readings: Finishing the 5th Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam and Tattva Sandarbha (on a personal level) / 1st Canto of the SB with Indira Sakti.

HpS - Strucure of the universe. Forest of material enjoyment?

• Mangala aratik: 90% / Sandhya aratik 5% (I have to improve hard on this point).
• Studies: I have already received the Bhakti Sastri certificate , I have interrupted BhVai studies for time reasons, restarting on november.
• Devotee care: We have formed the Sastra Seva Sanga study group with Indira Sakti dd, Tarangaksi dd, Jana Pavana das, Patricia Palomino and Sandra Salazar. We are studying and discussing The Teachings of Lord Caitanya (very nice association).
• Service: ISKCON Ministry of Education representative and Bhakti Sastri program administration.
• Association: My good wife first of all, a good friendship with LAD, Param Padam das, Vira Gopal das (Gaura Gadadhara dd's husband) and Jana Pavana das. The relationship with educators is very different from anything experienced before. Birds of the same plumage, flies together.

HpS - Heard your in-laws think it best for you to not stay with them with this Co-Vid thing. Hmmm. The omicron seems like any other flu, but we are having so many people coining and going here that it can be harder to control than even a normal family like that.

Jagat guru, Carolina, Babies, just moved into the bungalow.

Can you come and stay with Laksmana and Ramana reti and then all three visit during the daytime? We can help with any taxi expenses?

Devotional service is practical activity in the foreground of spiritual life.

We have a lot of work to do.

• Asram: improving a lot, working cooperatively in service, sublimating physical love in an associate relationship. Some issues still bothering but we have learned to take care of each other.

The internal storm calms down (a crystalline light emerges), now is a soft humid breeze, solitude is no longer a bitter refuge but a space to meet my beautiful Lord. Thank you for everything, for your warm protection, for the service you have allowed me to try do for you. The therapeutic value of Guru seva is inconceivable.

Forever grateful

Your clumsy servant

Gandharva das

HpS - ASA - Your evil group leader.
