Hare Krishna Gurudeva
Please accept my obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
You are present in my heart, but I don't give you the attention you deserve. I wish at some point I could constantly meditate and serve you.
HpS - We are a window on Srila Prabhupada, but there are many others. Learn how to get a personal connection to him through them.
My sadhana has remained regular. While I am living with my aunt for study reasons, I prefer not to get up so early so as not to disturb them, but once I return to the Cabildo, at the end of the year, I promise to resume the Mangala Arati sadhana.
HpS - Yes adjust, be push for Brahma muhurta. Maybe get up and just read and write.
This semester I had a bunch of English, it was super basic, but I realized that I have many gaps. The teacher said that I have an "intermediate technical and communicational" level of English.
HpS - Wonderful.
Once I finish studying, I want to take an English course so that I can perfect the execution of her first instruction "learn English."

At the moment I can understand 75%, I keep learning new words daily and reading paragraphs from Srila Prabhupada's books in English. At noon I read the Nectar of Devotion and at night before going to sleep the Krishna Book (I'm in chapter 58).
ASA - We are on chapter 21! VedaBase.Io has the Dual Language View. Hop you use it. We do.
I am increasingly aware of my Anhartas and I pray to continue purifying myself. Pride, fame, prestige, recognition and the list goes on.
I have many impurities in my heart, perhaps millions of lives of sins.
Now I understand why you said that I would need 2 fires for my first initiation, to burn so much karma that I carry, maybe it was a joke, but I do need them.
HpS - Yes, maybe for the first time after millions of lifetimes we are getting a human birth and really seeing what the work and hope is!
BG Chapter Two a little after 2.35 says "nehabikarmo naso sti...". Very nice meditation.
I'm on vacation, now I only have the next semester left and I finish my degree. I have been distributing books in Cabildo, where my family lives. Generally there are 1,2 or 3 books a day, it's little, but I think consistency can make a difference.
I do it person to person, but a few days ago I decided to sit down with books at a table and do bhajan with kartalas. In the first three days that I did it, one person came up very interested and took a book.
ASA - !
I am already communicating with sankirtan friends so that they can give me their feedback on my preaching projects.
For the Cabildo I think it would be interesting to do an interfaith dialogue program, since hardly anyone knows Krishna consciousness and the people are quite religious. prevailing Protestantism and Catholicism.
ASA - ! Could be.
Despite not being in the temple, I have the daily association of the Vaisnavas thanks to technology. I feel spiritually strong and happy.
What is standard or what should a “household brahmacari” do?
HpS - Full Morning Service on line? Talk with Sankirtan partners after breakfast about the days Sankirtan plans etc!
I want to know about it because that is my condition. My life is like of a bramacari, but living with my family. I feel stable in this position, I have been able to follow my spiritual practices and my health is in the ideal state (according to the opinion of my psychologist and psychiatrist).
Your Servant
Piyari Mohan das
HpS - 😃 You seem to be in a little bit of a manic mode when you wrote this. Do you still get little bit depressive modes.😞 Learning how to keep you SELF satisfied and using these swings is like 90% of KC, no?
