Todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias Guru Maharaj, me reporto al blog después de unos meses ausente, estoy aprendiendo a cuidar mi cerebro con medicación y acudo a mis citas con el neurólogo.

Actualmente mi proyecto más importante son mis hijos estoy trabajando con mis hijos en su educación en casa utilizando la pedagogía Charlotte Manson y Waldorf en conciencia de Krishna utilizando lo que funciona para cada niño, lo adaptamos a su necesidades y talentos. Soy honesta cada uno de mis 5 hijos son completamente diferentes pero entre hermanos se ayudan mutuamente y eso vuelve motivador el educar en casa que mis hijos gustan y desean aprender de Krishna y me recuerdan la importancia del Sadhana y los buenos hábitos además en la semana mi esposo enseña Sanskrito, Música y lectura a nuestros hijos.

Nueva Govardhan se encuentra activo creciendo cada mes actualmente tenemos una granja con animales exóticos que apoyan a tener una rutina diaria con los niños, alimentar, contemplar, aprender biología y empatía con los seres vivos en conciencia de Krishna.

Próximamente en un año publicaré un cómic con ilustraciones mías y 1 libro de trabajo en español, mi idea es mostrar los pasatiempos de Krishna a la audiencia infantil como experiencia propia como madre es difícil encontrar material atractivo en habla española para las familias Hare Krishna.

Aún pienso cuando lo conocí en persona y platicamos con mi esposo en Monterrey hace 14 años ¿cuál es mi naturaleza? Intenté por años descubrir mi naturaleza definitivamente no soy Vaisya ni Ksatrya hahaha, mi talento se encuentra en el dibujo quizá soy muy sudra por usar mis manos y lápices de carboncillo en lienzos pero me hace muy feliz y quizá puedo aportar un poco a ISKCON.

Estamos construyendo una cabaña grande de dos pisos es un gran proyecto multifuncional para proporcionar un espacio educativo y de convivencia, es difícil encontrar personas dispuestas a trabajar pero Krishna nos bendice con la energía de Lakshmi y la construcción va marchando maravillosamente.

Nandita se encuentra bien aún tengo miedo de acercarme a la vaca pero cuando tengo oportunidad le atiendo a distancia. También conseguimos comprar 3 pavoreales adultos son majestuosos logré que naciera una cría de ellos.

Mucho trabajo y una mente aplicada es lo que podemos compartir es un refugio para no estar en chismes o situaciones absurdas :) Agrego agradecimiento por recibir a mi esposo Gadadhar en Chile y ver nuestro pequeño video de Nueva Govardhan !

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Please accept my humble obeisances, Guru Maharaj. I am checking in on the blog after an absence of a few months; I am learning to take care of my brain with medication and am attending my appointments with the neurologist.

HpS/ASA - We, agtSP, have hearing aids and are 75% senile. 😆

Jagannatha Das Babaji was carried around in a basket by one of his more stout disciples.

Currently, my most important project is my children. I am working on their homeschooling using Charlotte Mason and Waldorf pedagogies within Krishna consciousness, utilizing what works best for each child and adapting the approach to their individual needs and talents.

To be honest, each of my five children is completely different, but the siblings help one another. This makes homeschooling motivating; my children enjoy and desire to learn about Krishna, and they remind me of the importance of *sadhana* and good habits.

Additionally, during the week, my husband teaches Sanskrit, music, and reading to our children.

New Govardhan is active and growing every month; we currently have a farm with exotic animals that helps establish a daily routine with the children—feeding and observing the animals, and learning biology and empathy for living beings within Krishna consciousness.

In about a year, I plan to publish a comic book featuring my own illustrations and a workbook in Spanish. My idea is to present Krishna’s pastimes to a young audience; based on my own experience as a mother, it is difficult to find engaging Spanish-language material for Hare Krishna families.

HpS/ASA - Have you seen the "Amar Chitra Katha" comic books? You can Google them. Some people just changed the speech bubbles into their local language.

Do you know other Latin devotees who are doing home schooling for kids? Candra mukhi Devi Das from Peru?

I still think back to when I met you in person and spoke with you alongside my husband in Monterrey fourteen years ago. I wondered then, "What is my nature?" I spent years trying to discover it; I am definitely neither *Vaisya* nor *Kshatriya*—hahaha! My talent lies in drawing. Perhaps I am very much a *Sudra* because I use my hands and charcoal pencils on canvas, but it makes me very happy, and perhaps I can contribute a little something to ISKCON.

HpS/ASA - Brahmana, Ksatriya, Vaisya, Sudra, Lady x Gentleman. It seems to us you are a Lady. A Mother. A Mother with a lot of Brahminical inclination.

Lady, Wife, Mother, Sudra (Art)-Brahmana-Brahmana-Brahmana.

That is Daivi Varna Ashrama Dharma (DVAD). Four Principles.

What about Bhagavata Dharma? How is your Japa?

We are building a large, two-story cabin—a major multifunctional project designed to provide a space for education and community interaction. It is difficult to find people willing to work, but Krishna blesses us with Lakshmi’s energy, and the construction is progressing wonderfully.

Nandita is doing well; I am still afraid to get close to the cow, but whenever I have the chance, I care for her from a distance. We also managed to buy three adult peacocks—they are majestic—and I even succeeded in getting a chick from them.

Hard work and a focused mind—that is what we have to share; it is a sanctuary away from gossip or absurd situations. :) I also want to express my gratitude for the welcome my husband, Gadadhar, received in Chile and for the chance to share our little video of New Govardhan!

Your servant, Anandamaya Devi Dasi (my apologies if any words change when this letter is posted; I am writing this from my iPhone due to connection issues).

HpS - Thank you!

Our Calendar proposes we visit Mexico for Two Goswamis Festival. January 8th - 10th. Maybe we could visit Monterrey then.

Cow is probably more afraid of you than you are of her?

Very best wishes for all this work.

How is your Japa.
