Hare Krsna Maharaj, PAMHO, AGTSP

hope your preaching in Chile are going great guns.

          ASA -  AGTSP   4.08AM   Just leaving for airport to Lima!  Was SUPER.

Hope we can find some video/article of your sankirtana development in Chile.

This question again arises from BHVAI studies and your lecture in Mayapur.

We intially take instruction from Scriptures, then we at higher stages we take instruction from good people [the 6 brahmana concept], then we get guidance from super soul and then ultimately direct  bhagavan. the sequnece developes on our development of our chanting...vidya vadu jivanam... please correct if the sequence is improper.

             ASA -  Whoop!     From the beginning we can hear scriptures from the Brahmanas!    That is good start!

...you also said in kaliyuga VAD does not work, so scripture does not work directly therefore its better to contact good people and ask them what to do ? --

          ASA - This is Parasara dharma sastra.   VAD.   Bhakti scriptures work.   VAD works to some degree, more or less.    Parasara gives some injunctions but says too many situations in Kali yuga to cover all, so go to Guru and Vaisnava with the examples he gives and then make decisions!!

How do we judge good people. if scripture [esp VAD ]does not work, what to do we expect from people.  {Like in lecture in Sil Valley you yourself that Sannyas like Narada Muni is not possible in todays world.}

            ASA - Four principles and Japa vrata!  :O)

-- how much of concepts learned in Srila Prabhupada books should be applied directly and how do we come to know the heirarchy of concepts.. .. we know you told us without good morning program these questions are not fruitful.. but we think these principles support our morning program...

            ASA - The books themselves will tell us which principles are more important if we just keep on reading.   If you can keep a healthy morning program, Chanting and little Deity worship by Brahma  muhurta and then books when there is light , then all your day will be very bright!
 

we know you have talked about such topics in JnJ a lot.but we are not able to recollect all answers...
