Summer!

Hare Krishna GuruMaharaj! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada! Please accept my humble obeisances.

I continue in Madrid now is summer!! Very hot!!

I have different news.

I went to communication congress of ISKCON in Vila Vrindavan Italy. The experience was very good (4 days) and I learned a lot from the different devotees. Many people from all Europe and a few from North America.

 I was talking with two very seniors devotees about the situation in Mayapur (one of them couldn’t speak Spanish this is why I was in the conversation, I was helping to translate). One of these devotees is one of the main GBC in ISKCON, with the information that I know now of Mayapur I think that it’s not a good idea to try to go now, maybe it’s better in the future. I hope that they can solve the problems but under my very little understanding will be very very very difficult. I would like a lot to go in the future to pass the course of brahminical culture in Mayapur Academy.

In Madrid there is one of the two Master diploma of all Spain about “ciencias de la religiones” I started some days ago to compile all the documents that are necessary to enter in the master. The master is one year and after of that you can start to do a doctorate. My parents are very happy with the idea of return to the university. The temple will help me with the payment of the studies. If I pass the selection of the university I will start the master in October, I could continue without problem with the service in the temple because the classes would be in the afternoon.

Two days ago we started to worship Tulsi Devi again, we have been caring the seed from the begging and now it’s enough big to worship, all the devotees in the temple are very happy with Tulsi Devi.

There are daily classes in the temple, today I had the exam of Sri Upadesamrita (only nectar of devotion and I will finish bhakti sastri). I hope to start soon to learn word by word the Gurvastak. In a few weeks, we will close the ashram because we are going to do reforms, in the finals days of August we are going to open again, Ratha Yatra will be the first or second week of September.

My mother returns from India (She was there 3 months) a few days ago, she loves the experience. She was visiting different temples (also ISKCON temples), touristic spots and helping to some catholic nuns to take care of children from the street.

Thanks for your instructions and advices.

Your servant Mantri Rama Das.
