Hare Krishna

Dear Gurudeva:

Please, accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhudada!

Thank you for your last visit and thank you for helping me so much with your words. My Japa is still a little bit disorganized but I am trying to improve the quality as much as I can or as much as much as I know. Lately, I am feeling very busy and, sometimes, very tired, but I don't know how to stop or even if I have to do it. So, here I am!  The kids, in my class, have already learnt the Maha mantra and the Govinda song. They really like it. It is very funny hearing them singing it while they are playing at the playground. The school year is almost finished and I can say that these children have enjoyed a lot hearing the Maha mantra, waking up the Deities and all kind of activities relates to Krishna we have made. More than previous years, I think.

About Gurukula, I have divided the group in two. On Thursdays, I have one session with the little ones (1 to 3 y.o.), and on Fridays, the other group (5 to 15). I should divide the last one, as Urmila devi  dasi told me, and I hope I can do it soon. I am just thinking  and asking advice on how to do it.

This last weekend, we went to NVM for the Sri Nrisimhadeva festival. It was very nice. I made some activities with the kids there. They are very nice.

But I am trying to focus a little bit on my rounds. Let's see if I am able to improve them, at least, a little bit.

Thank you so much for reading my letter and hoping you are fine.

Your humble servant,

Purnamasi devi  dasi

HpS - ASA -  AGTSP!!!   paoho.  Thank you for your nice letter.      Happy Birthday, 1976 June 4.

So you will now no longer be a young lady. Now you are 40-years old. In ten more years the energy in your body will be finished. Maybe you can push it to 55. This is all very nice. Krsna is pushing us along to get ready for death. Death in a chance, if not before, to leave this material body, world, and go back to Goloka!

So much is happening there!

We are needed so much.

On the other hand, this world can also be Goloka if we are associating with devotees, preaching to the innocent...

How many rounds do you have done before Mangala-arati? Before breakfast? By 10AM?

That's one nice test to see how you are getting better rounds done.

You work in a Public School, no?   You are teaching those little kids to chant, "Hare Krsna"???

You have a ton of work to do. You have to save yourself, your husband, your kids, your parents, your Church, your Nation. .  .
Mother Yasoda was giving milk to Krsna and then the pot boiled over.  Ooof!  Choices!  Which service to do: Give milk to Krsna or save His pot of milk on the stove.    It is not a choice between Maya and Krsna. It is a choice between this Krsna and that Krsna!!!     Hmmm!
In the Purport Prabhupada says that devotee is always being confronted with these choices in devotional service, but if he is sincere, then Krsna within his heart will give him intelligence which service to do.

The more we chant better 16-rounds, the more intelligence we have.
Waiting to hear the results of your work!

Our respect to Nimai and Jayantai!
