NIMSAR EKADASI REPORT

9 years, 7 months ago by Germán Vegas in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

Hare Krishna dear Gurudeva

Please, accept my obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

How are you, Guru Maharaja?

            HpS - ASA - AGTSP!!!!  Paoho.  We are too weak-willed, selfish and going on mostly by the tolerance of Srila Prabhupada, but with a    [[[little]]]    devotion..

It's me, Germán from Lima reporting our last activities and incoming events. Two weeks ago the current board was confirmed for the annual administrative period. The administrative positions are : Laksmana-agraja das (chairman), Bhakta Germán Vegas (secretary) Isvari dd. (treasurer), Patraka das (Bhakti-sastri head). Furthermore, Laksmana-agraja takes care of Bhakti-vaibhava program being Candra Mukhi dd. the examiner of the course. So the working group has a year to put things in order. 

HpS - Like until next Radha-astami.

We have two main goals, first of all we need to consolidate NIMSAR from an organized and efficient structural basis because without this our projects will not be solid in their results and to the community. We have identified that it is important not to delay over these issues involving internal bylaws and registration of Nimsar as a formal and legal institution.

        HpS - ASA - Aaah!  Very nice, but in Peru can be challenging, no?

The other goal is to plan a very well structured and realistic academic agenda for the next year. This includes the Peruvian National Congress of Education in november, a Seminar about Srila Prabhupada is due for his Disappearance Date  and the preparation of material for the February conference in Chile.

Besides this, we need to organize the different courses we plan to launch in the short and medium term as well to find out how to obtain the franchise for other official ISKCON courses such as the comunications course and the disciples course.

Finally, and considering the whole situation we should develop a much better external communication strategy, for this purpose we have created a subcommittee with Abhinanda dasa, Mataji Isabelle (my wife) for the new logo and the institutional image design.

On next 28th we will have a full day meeting with the whole eight NIMSAR members (I hope no one misses) to work on these issues. We expect Lord Jagannatha's blessings to have a productive day. I'll be reporting you the conclusions and results.

I say goodbye to you. Thank you very much.

Bhakta Germán

Secretary of NIMSAR

HpS - ASA - Very nice. No one is getting paid very much if at all for this work. We are motivated because we are getting a satisfaction from pure devotional service. That is based upon chanting 16 enthusiastic rounds! Four principles strictly.

Without a healthy morning program -  almost for certain can't chant enthusiastic rounds.
Hope Nimsar membership grows.

We talked with Laksmana Das for one hour this morning. He mentioned a lot of this, but is so nice that you confirm it.
Respects to Santa Isabella and everyone.
We also have some nice communication in education with Patraka Das and Candramukhi DD!
