Hare Krishna Maharaja!
PAMHO. AGTSP.
I hope you are well and in good health, or as better as is possible.
It's very good for my life in general to connect every day to your online programs, thank you very much dear and respected Maharaja and all glories to Srila Prabhupada.
I have many things to tell You, but this letter is exclusively focused on the Nityananda Trayodasi, Iskcon Chile, 2022 Festival, and the tribute we'll make to Rodrigo, remembering 3 exact years since his departure to Vaikuntha.
These have been very intense days to be able to coordinate and manage everything related to this Monday's big event, management in Chile is very complex due to restrictions and capacity, etc. This last Friday I was almost 4 hrs. at the Iskcon Santiago Mandir, I was able to speak and have interesting executive production conversations with the main devotees matajis and prabhujis in charge of the temple and it has been very rewarding, devotees love Rodrigo very much and have shown real enthusiasm to support the tribute to him, so the preview atmosphere is very motivating.
Although, because the capacity it's restricted, we can have 70 people approx in outdoor patios and the inner room it's restricted to 25 people, but the whole event from the bhajans and the abhishek until the end will be done all outside in the front patio.
We'll be online via zoom with You, Abhirama Thakur Das and Jagad Guru Das from just before 4:30 p.m. Peru time (the class you will give will start at 4:30 p.m. Peru time).
This zoom meeting in which we'll all be connected will be broadcast simultaneously through the Facebook Fan Page Iskcon Chile and will also transmit "live" through my social networks and those of Dharma Communications.
During the tribute we'll launch the book "El Universo Mágico de Rodrigo", which is the literary tribute that we have prepare to Rodrigo and that was published in the fifth edition of Solaris magazine and that, later, we decided to release as an offprint.
This book is supported by Nios, Solaris and all Your disciples in Peru and Chile and this is only thanks to Your infinite mercy, Maharaja, thank you very much for everything, simply words are few enough to express what overflows from the heart.
And we have had the honor of having the collaboration of Mr. Raúl Zurita, one of the most important contemporary writers and poets in Chile and South America, writing words and a poem to Rodrigo. I attach images and links.
The event will start at 3:00 p.m. Peru time and Your class will start at 16:30 Peru time. We'll do an online broadcast via zoom and facebook.
So, I send You the program with the schedules in Peru time (in Chile it is 2 hours more):
(at the end of this message we include the zoom coordinates to online connection)
