Meditación durante Odana Sasti 2023

4 months ago by Cruz Santa in Other

¡Hare Krsna! Querido Gurudeva, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias 🙇

Todas las Glorias sean a Srila Prabhupada y Todas las glorias sean a sus fieles representantes, que se encuentran expandiendo este movimiento de Sankirtana en todas las direcciones


Este 17 de diciembre, Odana Sasti, intentamos celebrar el aniversario harinama y sannyasa diksa de SS Hanumatpresaka Swami, de acuerdo a las instrucciones que usted nos dio en una reciente carta de ASA Carnaval (https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/14516/)...


Nos sumergimos en el Prabhupada lilamrta y apreciamos el ilimitado entusiasmo y determinación de nuestro Fundador - Acarya por llevar a cabo la amorosa orden de su maestro espiritual y difundir el mensaje de la conciencia de Krsna a todos los rincones. Siempre descansando en su confianza inquebrantable en la misericordia de Sri Krsna… Srila Prabhupada entregó esa confianza a sus discípulos, que fueron enviados a diferentes misiones con la más valiosa joya y la irrefutable certeza “Krsna os ayudará” … un sinnúmero de pasatiempos, de diferentes devotos confirma lo anterior. ¡Krsna les ayudó!😊


Naturalmente recordé una ocasión en la que usted me dijo con toda confianza “No se preocupe, usted está haciendo su parte, ¡Krsna se encargará del resto!” y observé que nuestro Misericordioso Señor me ha ayudado una y otra vez, pero yo tonta estudiante vuelvo a tropezar engañada por los conceptos “yo” y “mío” … ¡Deseo salir de esa ignorancia para poder ser herramienta útil en servicio! Usted frecuentemente dice vuélvete Goswami (Goswamini), intentando entender nos refugiamos en el Sri Upadesamrta; entendiendo que los impulsos - los sentidos, solo podrán controlarse y purificarse mediante la ocupación en el servicio devocional, añoro mantenerme ocupada en actividades que complazcan a nuestro Señor.


Como puede verse, no soy muy inteligente, pero creo que mi mayor éxito en la vida ha sido tomar refugio en usted, quien a su vez nos conecta con la sucesión discipular. Mirando en retrospectiva observo que, por su misericordia sin causa (que es la manifestación de la ilimitada misericordia de Srila Prabhupada) he avanzado un poco en esta senda, aunque tengo múltiples fallas y limitaciones, siento profundo deseo de ocuparme en servicio a usted, a Srila Prabhupada, a los devotos y por ende a nuestros Amorosos Señores... De alguna manera, mi corazón se ha vuelto más cálido e intento apreciar la misericordia sin causa de nuestro Señor en los distintos acontecimientos de la vida. Trato de compartir mis limitadas experiencias de la Conciencia de Krsna - de la misericordia de Krsna - a las personas con las que me relaciono y, solo por su misericordia sin causa, de alguna manera nuestras prácticas han motivado a otros, hemos tenido varias experiencias a ese respecto.


Recientemente me entere que una dama, vendedora de flores, quien, por más de diez años, donó flores para sus Señorías, abandonó el cuerpo. 😓 Sin saberlo, por alguna razón yo estuve pensando en ella justo cuando dejo el cuerpo y sentí la necesidad de orar a nuestro Señor por ella. Hacia algún tiempo yo le había entregado el Bhagavad – Gita, su familiar me contó que ella lo leía todo el tiempo antes de morir y que siempre esperaba la visita de los devotos para escuchar un poco acerca de Dios. 😌 Oramos a nuestro Señor para que donde quiera que este, ella continúe desarrollando su servicio devocional. 💐  ¿Qué más puede hacer una torpe mujer como yo?


Guru Maharaja, me gustaría saber ¿Cómo puede una dama (sin hijos) contribuir de manera eficiente desde el asram de vanaprastha? Encontramos poca información referente al vanaprastha asram, (incluso menos referente a las damas en este asram).


Gurudeva, si no es molestia, ¿podría por favor compartirnos algunas experiencias que usted ha tenido en seguir sus votos de iniciación en los diferentes niveles (Harinama, Brahmana, Sannyasa) o quizá algunas experiencias en el desarrollo de su Asram?


Por favor, disculpe cualquier ofensa que pudiera haber cometido. Muchísimas gracias por otorgar a su torpe estudiante el refugio de su misericordiosa guía. Esperando algún día poder ser de utilidad. Envió mis reverencias, afecto y admiración. 🙇🌻


Siempre a sus órdenes

Hare Krishna! Dear Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances 🙇


All Glories be to Srila Prabhupada and All glories be to his faithful representatives, who are expanding this Sankirtana movement in all directions.


HpS/ASA - 👍


This December 17, Odana Sasti, we intend to celebrate the anniversary of H. H. Hanumatpresaka Swami's Harinama and Sannyasa Diksa, according to the instructions you gave us in a recent letter from ASA Carnaval (https://monkeywarrior.com/detail/14516/ )...


We immerse ourselves in Prabhupada 'Lilamrta' and appreciate the boundless enthusiasm and determination of our Founder-Acarya to carry out the loving order of his spiritual master and spread the message of Krsna consciousness to every corner of the world.


Always resting on his unwavering trust in the mercy of Sri Krsna… Srila Prabhupada gave that trust to his disciples, who were sent on different missions with the most valuable jewel and the irrefutable certainty “Krsna will help you”… countless pastimes, of different kinds. devotees confirms the above. Krishna helped them!😊


HpS/ASA - Thank you for inspiring us with this injection!


Naturally I remembered an occasion when you confidently told me, “Don't worry, you are doing your part, Krishna will take care of the rest!” and I observed that our Merciful Lord has helped me time and again, but I, a foolish student, stumble again, deceived by the concepts “I” and “mine”… I wish to get out of that ignorance so that I can be a useful tool in service!


You often say become Goswami (Goswamini), trying to understand we take refuge in ''Sri Upadesamrta''; Understanding that the impulses - the senses, can only be controlled and purified by engagement in devotional service, I long to keep myself busy in activities that please our Lord.


HpS - Us also! Us also. ''the senses require practical engagement''. of course, singing and dance as much as possible.


As you can see, I am not very intelligent, but I believe that my greatest success in life has been taking refuge in you, who in turn connects us to the disciplic succession.


HpS - We are trying to be a descent mailman. Success is opening the box [books]. 🙂


Looking back, I observe that by your causeless mercy (which is the manifestation of Srila Prabhupada's unlimited mercy) I have made some progress on this path.


Although I have multiple flaws and limitations, I feel a deep desire to engage in service to you, to Srila Prabhupada, to the devotees and therefore to our Loving Lords...


Somehow, my heart has become warmer and I try to appreciate the causeless mercy of our Lord in the various events of life.


I try to share my limited experiences of Krsna Consciousness - of Krsna's mercy - to the people I come into contact with and, just because of His causeless mercy, somehow our practices have motivated others, we have had several experiences to date. that respect.


I recently learned that a lady, a flower seller, who, for more than ten years, donated flowers to her Lordships, abandoned her body. 😓


Without knowing it, for some reason, I was thinking about her just when she left her body and I felt the need to pray to our Lord for her.


Some time ago I had given her the ''Bhagavad-Gita'',

her relative told me that she read it all the time before she died and that she always waited for devotees to visit her to hear a little about God. 😌


HpS/ASA - 😲


We pray to our Lord that wherever she is, she will continue to develop her devotional service. 💐 What else can a clumsy woman like me do?


HpS - We might try being Trijata??? !!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trijata


Guru Maharaja, I would like to know how can a lady (childless) contribute efficiently from the vanaprastha asram? We found little information regarding the vanaprastha asram, (even less regarding the ladies in this asram).


HpS - Sometimes Krsna is too greedy. He wants all the love a mother can give, so they don't get children.

Yasoda had to wait a long time to get a child, then she got Gopal!!


Do you have deities of Gaura-Nitai!?

They are natural children for devotees.

Talk with Them about everything.

You are already contributing very nicely.

Next life with Visnupriya and all Her friends?


Gurudeva, if you don't mind, could you please share with us some experiences that you have had in following your initiation vows at the different levels (Harinama, Brahmana, Sannyasa) or perhaps some experiences in developing your Asram?


HpS - The thought for such an essay has been crowding our mind! Maybe we are like the flower seller. Your questions pushes with more clarification.

We would have to include Uncle Gismo!


Please excuse any offense I may have committed. Thank you very much for granting your clumsy student the shelter of her merciful guidance. Hoping one day to be of use. He sent my reverences, affection and admiration. 🙇🌻


Always at your service
