Hare Krisna dear Gurudeva. Please accept my humble obeisances. AGTSP.
I hope you’re fine.
We are well by Krisna’s mercy. Now we are preparing the next Ratha Yatra on September 6th, tomorrow.
I miss your Japa Joe and the sanga-chanting with de devotees.
By Krisna’s Mercy and His devotees we have opened the Temple during the August month. All year open!!!!!. Some devotees have been serving all month and the people have been very happy. We have done some new devotees during August, and Mani Manjari Devi Dasi (Marisol) has take Diksa of Bhakti Gauravani Goswami. She is the first devote from my old group (old school of yoga) taking Diksa. She’s a great value in Madrid’s temple. We have more devotees waiting to take initiation; some of them asked you shelter as bhakta Marcos or bhakta Jacobo some months ago.
Now we are beginning some new groups of Bhakti Vriksa en Madrid coordinated by Bhaktin Anna, and the leaders are: Jaramara Hari Das, Bhadra Vardhana Das and Bhaktin Anna. Carcika and me we are beginning a new group of Sattva in Toledo, and we are working with other group in Tarragona (Cataluña).
I’m very very busy with the service. There are many things to have in the mind, speaking and listening to devotees, their problems and disagreements, their projects, etc. Organizing the temple, services, saving costs, etc …
During August, we have done works in the temple (I’m attaching some pictures).
On other hand, Carcika and I are working spiritually and humanly very hard. In July Carcika was pregnant, but she lost the baby. Krisna gave us a child, but then He thought: “They aren’t ready to be parents”.
HpS - Hmmmmmm! Can be so sad! Yet, like you say Krsna has a plan. From what Srila Prabhupada wrote it maybe that some very advance Yogi, devotee, had just a little, little, Karma to finish off, so Krsna put him into the womb of a pure devotee so that he could here her Japa and and hear her heart beat and take Prasadam from her body and then. . . . enough! All finished. Back to Goloka. Prepare a place for my last mother also.
Gurudeva, I’m very fallen. I’m not merciful. Krishna tests me a lot, and I don’t exceed Him test. Sometimes the world seems insuperable, the devotees seem insuperable, the karmis seem insuperable, the principles are insuperable, all seem insuperable.
What can I do?
HpS - You can do what I do, pray to the Insuperable! "Hey, God that's it! Reached the limit! HELP!!! Hare Krsna, Hare Rama!".
Then someone comes in the door and says, "Of, Prabhu, don't worry about that problem between, XYZ and me, we talked about it. It's O.K. now!"
Well, thank you for all Gurudeva. I hope to see you soon.
Please, let me keep at your Lotus Feet.
Your humble servant, Dandava Das.
HpS - ASA --- It is so nice to hear from you. We hope you have a very nice Rathayatra that heals many hearts. We have our ticket for South America. It would seem that we would head for Spain and India like 2015 Fall unless something happens first [like a nuclear war between Putin and Obama].
Let's answer two more letters.
