All glories to Srila Prabhupda.

Dear Gurudeva, please, accept my obeisances. It's me, Bhakta Germán, from Perú. I hope you're in good health.

                   HpS - ASA - AGTSP! We are fine, better daily, but right now weird stomach pains.

Let me thank you, again for letting me serve you during the time you've been in Lima.This experinece was the key for the understanding of many things about seva, renunciation, learning and love for Krsna and His devotees. Please, don't misunderstand my words. I'm just starting to realize this concepts, they will take a lot of time to become into significant knowledge.Only, after you left, I've started to appreciate the answers, details and the new questions that have arisen. Thank you very much.

                       It was so nice to be with you!

I want to tell you that Laksman Agraja Prabhu invite me to take part of the NIMSAR directory. Very surprising and very exciting! We just had one meeting, on Saturday is the next and makes me happy. Teaching and learning is an integral part in my life, thanks to your disciples for giving me sucha an opportunity. I have some ideas for fullfilling the gap between the philosophical interestes of the new people and the Introduction to Bhakti Yoga cours that takes one year.Maybe a month and a half course (6 sessions), in wich they can learn about the basic topics of the vaisnava philosophical tradition and also know a little bit about what they are looking and worshiping (the altar), singing (the arati songs) and eating (prasadam).New people sometimes loses interest when nobody explains them what is behind this rituals and beliefs.I don't know if this initiative has to be taken by NIMSAR or the temple's authorities. Maybe, if NIMSAR design this basic course could also preserve the standard. Anyway, I will propose this idea after I work on it a little bit more.

                      I think they already have a course that is like that they are developing. Please look at it!

I'm getting married tomorrow. We want to put Lord Krsna as a pivot of our life, we understand this concept theoretically, but, how to turn it into a practical realization?

Thank you for your time Guru Maharaja, I beg to Lord Jagannatha for your health.

                 ASA - Marriage is like two people buy a car. Can be very happy thing, but it's not everything. It is meant to take you both to some place else.

More news as you can! Hope for very nice wedding!
