All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Please Maharaja accept my humble obeisances

Hare Krsna!

This is my first letter,  so I´ll try to make a short introduction. My name´s Gabriela, from Buenos Aires. In your last visit to Argentina, Ambarisa Maharaja  and Vrisabhanu Nandini introduced me to you.

I´m 29 years old. I´m married to Markandeya Rsi  Das, Bhakti Marga Swami disciple. We met  KC about 9 years ago, and we are trying to practice since then. I´m studying for a degree in nutrition in college.

 Since your last visit I´ve commited to chant 16 rounds daily, wich always have been my most difficult problem.  At the moment  16 round are ok, but trying to chant  more attentively ,also following the regulative principles strictly. Serving  Gaura Nitai at home since 2010. Last year participating in the Dasanudasa Festival and Food for Life programs. Having so nice asociation from your disciples.

We got back from the Holy Dham yesterday, so we are trying to settle in again and looking forward to engage ourselves in service.

Please Maharaja accept my apologizes for my offenses and for my poor english.

Aspiring to serve you, Srila Prabhupada and all vaisnavas

HpS - ASA - Jaya! Sorry for the delay in answering this letter. We have been traveling and then opening our office in Nashville, Tennessee. Still not completely settled. Is very nice to hear from you.

Krsna says in the BG, Chapter 10(?), Yajnam japa yajno 'smi.  Amongst sacrifices he is Japa. So it is not an easy austerity, especially if we use it to control the mind. It is so easy to think about things other than, Hara, Krsna and Rama while we are chanting. Chant with the tongue, mind and intelligence. Chant with a meaning, that's intelligence.
