All glories to Srila Prabhupada
All glories to  You Maharaja

Maharaja, please  excuse  my  previous  letter, I do not  understand  what  happened  to  the  spaces, Please  excuse  me.  He  sent  the  letter again.
Thanks

Dear  Maharaja, Please  accept  my obeisance. We  are  very  happy  to  know  that will  be  with us  during  Ratha  Yatra. We are  trying   to  struggle  to  correspond   from  our  small  place all  the  mercy  that  you  spill  on  us.
In  our  Sadhana, there  is  still  much  room  for  improvement, we  got  up  at  4:00, 4:30 a  small Kirtan  from home,5:00  we  began our rounds to complete the 16 and ended with a  little  more of  Kirtan.

 Although  this month  fail 3 or 4  days, and  do  the  program  later than  usual this  becauseour  health  has  deteriorated  significantly, the  headaches are  very  intense and  sometimes very  difficult  to  sleep, so  it  is difficult  to  wake  up early. By  the  mercy  of  Krishna, we have been  able  to  work  from home  all  this  time  and look a  little  more of  this  body.

We  keep  firm  against  these  adversities, motivated  to  follow  the  wonderful  example  of  our  elder  brothers, which  in  time. I follow  firmly  you  through  the  path  left  by  Srila Prabhupada. Read  this  blog  I've  been  very  helpful  and  inspired  me  to  try  to  serve  it, understanding  how  much  I  needed  to  go.

We  continue  with our  fixed  service  in  the  Temple  5  days  a  week, making  garlands fortheir   lordships, we  participated   in  the  decoration  of  the festival.  Although  we  are failing  Sankirtan, we  have  not  complied  with  the  distribution  of   at  least   one   book   daily  we ask His  blessings  for  us  to  improve  this  service.

We  are  trying to  improve  our  Japa,  and  Japa  Joe  has  been  our  main  tool. We  are  trying  to  invoke  a  beautiful   “Deity  out  of  sound"   and  “Tic   Toc”  so   helps   us   to   avoid  distractions,  Thanks   for  your  gracious  statement.

Please   excuse   the  offenses   committed.

Your   aspiring  servant

HpS -  Jaya!   AGTSP    pamho.    We are still in Tennessee.  Very active work with Sankirtana through internet and trying to penetrate the local community.  Is tough.   USA is very materialistic, mechanistic.
Your Sadhana sounds very  good.   One devota, she was deaf from birth, so she couldn't chant the Maha-mantra with audible voice.  So there was no criticism.  Her body would not let her chant with her voice, but she would chant 16 rounds every day with her mind.   She could also feel the Kirtana with her feet often. <img alt="smiley" height="20" src="http://hps-d6.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.gif" title="smiley" width="20" />
We are also in horrible in book distribution. We pray to Krsna to have some respectable quantity in our effort, although we do a lot of austerity to lecture.

O.K. We see you at Rathaytra with our friend Hari-lila Das.  He is super devotee, Hindoo, was big architect in Houston.   Built buildings of 50-stories.    He is looking forward to meeting the devotees in Mexico.  He is retired, 66 years old.

Also hope ASA has a super stand, booth, cabana, at the Rathyatra festival.  We can paint children like Hanuman and sell tails and clubs.  Ja Ja.
