Our husband is out of the country working for the past 3 months, coming back in 3 months more, really hoping less!

HpS - Please!! Give your regards to him and tell him that whatever little association we have had with him has always been wonderful.

All children homeschooling, which is a little of a nightmare sometimes. working from home (2 jobs), we are improving programs at the temple. all principles ok, but we drank chai couple of times, we really needed de energy. most of the day we are like zombies rooming around. and we felt really bad about it, because we liked it.

Guru Maharaja, we had a meeting on sunday with temple authorities and finally after years of talk, we are ready to set an all girl gurukul in vrindavan (i would prefered to be mix) and we are in charge of investigating and try to put togheter the curricular program. so we have a degree in education, but is most reserch than field.      so our experience is inclining us to try to use a gideline in a more "unconventional" way... we studied professor Paulo Freire's work, madam Montessori and A. S. Neill... and a whole lot of Noam chomsky and Humberto Maturana.  We need to talk with some teachers of succesfull Gurukulas and Curricular professional. because this need to work, yes or yes.  and it better be good, because im about to dedicate my life for this mission, wich we have always run away from, but Radharani keeps puting it in front of our face, over and over.

they (authorities) are telling us that boy Gurukula is moving to a different location soon, new buildings are to be finish soon, and they will give us some place in the old gurukula.

any suggestions?

we have a meeting this sunday 5pm we are prepering Powerpoint of our ideas.

Please Guru Maharaja, give us blessings so this works, so i can work... this has to hapen (we think)

on another subject:

question:

so in college we studie some theater. we liked the work of konstantin stanislavski. we always had a thought.... and in his books, his metodology he talks so much about emotional memory. we read the NOD and we think it is somewhat alike... to feel what we can't remember or what we are not feeling in the moment. and how to get in touch with them... also the mood (as we think) of Bhaktivinod Thakur?... are we  crazy to think that its alright to try to "feel" certain "devotional" emotions thru internally  focus  in the emotions portraited by great devotees (example, their songs and poetry?)

Hoping we can become better instruments,

Cakori Radha Devi dasi (sahajiya)

HpS - You need to get Danudhara Swami's, "Waves of Devotion" and Viola Spolins, "Improvisation for the Theater". You can contact Prana Das with Goloka Education in Mumbai. His Skype name is "Prana o'Sullivan".

They can help a lot. Devotees there might know him and Rama giridhari Das.    What you are describing in Raga-anuga Bhakti.  In a liberated state, trying to follow, imitate the emotions of the Ragatmika devotees.  Our whole yoga is Gandharva Veda, no?
