Hare Krishna!!! Jaya Gurumaharaja!! Please accept my humble obeisances🙏🏻👣🪷 All glories to SRILA PRABHUPADA!!

Here I send You the letter that our dear sankirtanera and wonderful person, Mother Jambabati Devi Dasi, sent me in the form of 3 audios.

I transcribed it exactly as it was, just as she asked me to, even my name repeated twice by her, Radha 😊, I copied it exactly as it is in the audio.

I also attached the photos She asked me to send to You. All I did was enlarge the letters and add color to, "as I understand it 😊", make it easier for Her lotus eyes, beloved Gurumaharaja, to read.

Here it goes..!!!! :

" Separated " ...

Nitay Gaura Premanande..!!!

Dear and ever-remembered Gurudeva, thanks to the mercy of Mother Radha Japa Prati Jalpa Radha, whom I always respect, admire, and love very much, she is doing me the great favor of allowing me to send this letter to You.

Since the last time I saw You, Dear Gurudev, my father's situation has become increasingly complicated, implying that he has no fixed residence due to various circumstances; he has been moved from place to place, and I, as always, am making arrangements to be close to him, in the service of his care.

That helped me maintain enthusiasm in the service I'm performing. I try to see my father no longer in a materialistic way. Little by little, my father's purifying phase is coming to an end. Everything passes and everything ends.

I recall a verse from Srimad Bhagavatam 1, 8, 25, which states that one should not pay so much attention to the calamities of this material world, for they are merely fleeting dreams. Whenever I felt distressed and discouraged, I would remember You, Gurudev, when You once told me that You would only accept my tears if they were for Krishna. Anything else was my ego.

That oriented my mind and gave me the strength to continue. I am always separated from you, whom I miss so much, and that is why I cry. I am also separated from the temples, from the Vaishnavas, from the distribution of books.

But I know that in the near future I will again have the opportunity of His association. It will all happen because of the faith I have placed in His divine lotus feet, which is the only hope for this worthless sinner to be brought to Krishna.

Her useless and clumsy servant:

Mother Jambabati Devi Dasi

P.S. In mid-July of last year, my father had an accident and fractured his right hip. He was only able to have surgery in November, and then came the worst part: waiting for the prosthesis they put in to heal. That took about two more months. His Alzheimer's progressed significantly due to all the nervous disorders caused by being restrained—his feet, hands, and chest.

His prosthesis is now fitted. He still needs rehabilitation to be able to walk. His care currently requires 24-hour attention. These past few months I have faced very difficult trials, but always placing at the center of my life the most important service, which is the chanting of the holy names.

Despite the limitations of not having internet access and a barely functional cell phone, I maintain occasional contact with my devoted friends, who are always inspiring me with their service. I once read that Srila Bhaktisidanta Sarasvati said we should view this material world and everything in it as filled with ingredients for the Lord's service. This entire world is intended for the service of Krishna. He said, "Try to see your father and mother as Krishna's father and mother."

" En separación " ...

Nitya Gaura Premaanande !!

Querido y siempre recordado Gurudeva , gracias a la misericordia de madre Radha Japa Prati Jalpa Radha, a quien yo siempre respeto, admiro y quiero mucho. Ella me está haciendo el gran favor de poder enviar esta carta hacia Usted.

Desde la última vez que lo ví querido Gurudev, la situación de mi padre se fue complicando cada vez más, implicando no tener residencia fija por diferentes circunstancias fue trasladado de un lugar a otro y yo, como haciendo arreglos, y como siempre haciendo arreglos para estar cerca de El , en el servicio de su cuidado.

Eso me ayudó a mantener entusiasmo en el servicio que estoy realizando . Trato de ver ya no a mi padre con un concepto material. Poco a poco la etapa purificadora de mi padre está llegando a su fin. Todo pasa y todo se termina .

Recuerdo un verso del srimad bhagavatam 1, 8, 25, en dónde se dice , en dónde se afirma que no hay que prestar tanta atención a las calamidades de este mundo material que son sólo sueños que se terminan. Siempre que me sentía angustiada y desanimada lo recordaba a Usted Gurudev, cuando una vez me dijo que Usted , aceptaba mi llanto sólo si era por Krsna. Lo demás era mi ego.

Eso ubicaba mi mente y me daba ánimos de seguir. Siempre estoy en separación de Usted a quien extraño tanto y por eso lloro. También en separación estoy de los templos, de los vaisnavas, de la distribución de libros.

Pero sé que en el futuro cercano nuevamente tendré la oportunidad de Su asociación . Todo va a ocurrir por la fé que tengo puesta en Sus divinos pies de loto, que es la única esperanza para que esta inútil pecadora sea llevada a krsna.

Su inútil y torpe sirvienta:

Madre Jambabati Devi Dasi

PD. A mediados de Julio del año pasado mi padre sufrió un accidente y se fracturó la cadera derecha. Recién pudo ser operado en noviembre y luego vino lo peor : Esperar que la prótesis que le pusieron, suelde. Eso llevó cerca de 2 meses más El Alzheimer le avanzó mucho por todos los estados de alteración nerviosa que le provocó, estar amarrado , de pies, manos y tórax .

Actualmente ya fijó su prótesis. Todavía está pendiente su rehabilitación para que pueda caminar. Su cuidado actualmente demanda las 24 horas del día. Estos últimos meses estuve afrontando pruebas muy difíciles, pero siempre poniendo en el centro de mi vida, el servicio más importante que es el canto de los santos nombres .

Mantengo, dentro de las limitaciones de no tener internet y un celular que casi no funciona, comunicación con mis devotos amigos de cuando en cuando, que siempre me están inspirando con su servicio . Una vez leí que Srila Bhaktisidanta Sarasvati dijo que debemos ver este mundo material y todo lo que se encuentre en El, cómo lleno de ingredientes para el servicio del señor. Todo este mundo está destinado al servicio de KRSNA ,El decía, trata de ver a tu padre y a tu madre como el padre y la madre de ...

We were able to talk with Jambavati Devi Dasi for more than half an hour while in Lima with the help of Gandharva Das.

It was very satisfying and I hope it helped her get some more practical perspective for her service to Krsna through her father etc.

Now the Sun is at 2.27PM here in Mexico.

Leave for the Sunday Festival at 3.30PM

Leave for the airport for USA at 1.15AM tomorrow.

Hare Krsna.
