All glories to you!
Gurudeva,
I am so very excited to see you soon in Houston. Your association face to face, through your blog, Kapi Dhvaja or in any shape or form is so much appreciated.
I wrote to you a sometime ago about 2nd initiation while you are Houston. I received my letter of recommendation from Nityananda Prabhu, he also emailed it to you directly at [email protected]. I have copied and pasted it below.
Letter from HG Nityananda Prabhu:
"Dear Hanumatpresaka Maharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Your Divine Grace and Srila Prabhupada.
I pray this meets you safe and well.
I am very happy to recommend your dear disciple and a very sincere devotee in our Dallas Yatra, His Grace Nanda Braja Prabhu, for second initiation.
His list of many services include:
Krishna House director
Bhakti Circle (western audience outreach) program director
Temple office congregation/guest services
Srimad Bhagavatam class scheduling
Currently taking Bhakti Shastri
SB, BG and Sunday fest classes
Sunday feast announcements
Monthly Laxmi contribution to Sri Sri Radha-Kalachandji
Contribute/Volunteer for each festival.
Thank you so very much!!
Your servants’ humble servant, affectionately
Nityananda dasa
Temple President, Sri Sri Radha Kalachandji Temple, Dallas Texas
Regional Supervisor for Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nebraska and Kansas"
If you are willing to give 2nd initiation to myself during your up coming visit to Houston then this mercy of yours is very welcomed. I am surrendered to whatever instruction you may give. I dedicate my life to serving your lotus feet; your very dear Spiritual Master, our founder Acharya of the International Society of Krishna Consciousness His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktividanta Swami Srila Prabhupada's, lotus feet and Sri Sri Radha-Kalachandji's lotus feet. I will be honest seeing my wonderful godbrothers and sisters, your disciples, I understand I am not so good at this but I dedicate my life to always making progress and getting better. Most importantly I believe is that I dedicate my life to your instructions of full morning program, 16 enthusiastic rounds and following strictly 4 regulative principles. If I may serve the Lords pure devotee even just a little then it is my greatest fortune.
Your disciple,
Nanda-braja das
HpS - AgttSP. Paoho... Second intitiation is for Brahmanas, Ksatriyas and higher class Vaisyas. You got the Ksatriya spirit to some degree, no?
Your good wife taking initiations?
Kids?
Baptized as Mormons!!! ?
Trying to fix program in Houston. Arrive 22nd about 9pm after 20-hours of travel in economy plus.
so not going out and doing light work until home program Saturday. Sunday Feast lecture.
Asking Saranga about 2nd for Devendra and Sumitra, but no answer. After that just the week days and we go to Mexico on Satruday.
One month in Mexico and back to Houston for some time.
People think that it might be best to do the initiations then. April.
What do you think?
