Hare Krsna dear Gurumaharaja

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

In the last two weeks we have been working on two major themes: the meeting with the national board and the organization of the August educators meeting. As I told you in a previous post, conversations are advanced. On Monday, we will define the details, asking mainly three points: the recognition of NIMSAR and its members as the institution we are, permission to teach our courses in ISKCON temples and permission for the August meeting.

On the other hand, we are thinking about the objectives of the conference, there are different views which is a good sign, the combination of all views will result in an event that caters different goals.In my personal opinion, we must give more importance to talks and workshops to promote programs that NIMSAR staple organize and coordinate short and medium term. I think education can be used as driver of congregational development and I think NIMSAR can do much about. Education for Varnasrama dharma, you gave the clue of it.

Hoping your health and sankirtan are good.

Your servant

HpS - ASA -  Thank you. We wrote some suggestions for adjusting the Membership and Official's descriptions for NIMSAR. Are they valuable? What are the current, final descriptions of these two things? They must be a part of the the NIMSAR formal description.
ASA has to have a Formal Letter from the National Junta by end of April. Is NIMSAR accepted as a Branch of ASA in Peru and in what way? If not we have to close our our NIMSAR ASA Branch. Also, the BhSastri diplomas are given by ISKCON Peru, not NIMSAR.
If we cannot work out these simple administrative relations then is much more productive that we just go ahead as friends. We can just be visiting Sannyasis.

O.K? ????
