Hare Krishna, dear Gurudeva, Pamho, AGTSP!
I am writing to inform you that I had a very good conversation with Atul krsna prabhu about Bhakti Vaibhava. He sent me all the information and I qualify to take a special exam as a long-time preacher (22). He also sent me a bank of questions for the exam. I explained him that I studied Canto 1 to 6 with you, even up to Canto 11, following your “tava pace pace” study guides, which, although they are not official documents, are of great value and splendidly illuminate the Bhaktivedanta purports. I sent the information to your WhatsApp, but you probably missed it.
I want to ask you a big favor, if you could give me some suggestions for taking this exam. It would be great if we could have a special session to discuss the topic. Please grant me that mercy. I know you have many issues to discuss, I still implore your mercy.
I told Atul prabhu that I have had students too, but the thing is that the exam is in English and first I want to qualify myself and then continue working on the issue of making Chosica official as a Bhakti Vaibhava center, so that I can officially train my students, old ones and create a new generation of students with all the requirements of the official course.
At this moment I have classes from Monday to Friday and also my service with you on Saturday mornings. I need time to concentrate on the topic of the Bhakti Vaibhava exam. Therefore, I think I will take it sometime in January of next year because in February I start all the courses I teach again.
I did not spread the news of this grace that Prabhu Atul is giving me, because the documentation and the conversation was private and I am not authorized to talk about this topic, I think.
Waiting for your prompt response to the topic, your servant says goodbye,
Laksmana-agraja das
HpS - Super. We fell on our head while walking to the shower in the dark this morning and our toe appears to be only swollen not broken.
Seems like our body will make it one more year without eye, skin, ear, hear surgery is we are careful, but generally it practical estimate that we will be moving to the next within 2024 unless we die before that.
I would suggest that you get a study partner and do the Bhakti-vaibhava God Father Diploma study with them as a review of Cantos one-six using the questions as a study guide.
Involve as many others as you can.
Give classes with your partner(s) on the material you are studying.
There are nice devotees like Karuna Krsna Das et al who speak enough English to join, no?
Thank you!
More news as you can.
