Hare Krsna, dear Gurudeva, Pamho. AGTSP!

Well, I've been researching a little about Colleges. One thing is that Peruvian's would give you a good perspective of what's going on in Perú, latin america, etc. I talked to our friend Haribhudi and gave me a good perspective of La Cantuta since he's been working there for a while. La Cantuta always is involved is nasty politics, but postgraduate school is something different. They work in some other campus in La Molina (very nice district of Lima. Very close to Rupanuga´s house, our ayurvedic friend) and there it is a different story. They have the best teachers on the Education field in Perú, etc. Still La Cantuta is the dean of Education Universities and have very nice international conections, etc. Besides, the feeds [fees] are convenient. Only like $1,500 for the hole [whole] thing, 3 semesters. To [On] the other hand my Catholic University is 4 semesters and $8,000 and requires to work very close to the catholic church, wich I don't mine but is a little aukward. But still I think I would need a grant o some kind of help. I only have a little pension to survive and school requires lot of means like books, researching for my thesis, transportation, etc.

I think I can do a nice thesis about some topic that we can use for ISKCON Educational purposes and offer it to Srila Prabhupada. I would send to you, Gurumaharaj, and everyone, my suggestions. Maybe I can sell it to some of your rich friends and get a grant.

NIMSAR needs people with nice qualifications to foster and help out in what Srila Prabhupada describes in the Preface of SB, and give some contribution for the world.  

"We must know the present need of human society. And what is that need?. Human society is no longer bounded by geographical limits to particular countries or communities. Human society is broader than in the Middle Ages, and the world tendency is toward one state or one human society. The ideals of spiritual communism, according toŚrīmad-Bhāgavatam, are based more or less on the oneness of the entire human society, nay, of the entire energy of living beings. The need is felt by great thinkers to make this a successful ideology. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam will fill this need in human society."

So, NIMSAR, Candra mukhi dd, Yugala kisore dd, Abhinanda das, Isvari dd. etc and myself can do something about it. We need to get qualified to help Srila Prabhupada's mission in this broad perspective. 

Going back to school for me now is crucial. You mention several times NIMSAR and I can see that you rely in our work. So that's is a huge responsability and I want to be qualified to not let you down and do my best and more in cooperation with autorities and everyone.

OK?

HpS - Yes, Hare Krsna. It is so useful for us to all hear about this higher education investigation, and yes, Yadu Swami is publishing his Master Thesis: Sannyasa in ISKCON. I feel that education in ISKCON is essential to our movement at this point. We will put some more notes in the DTC this evening.

Now, Goura gadhadara dasi (who is a kind of informatic cripple [limited cybertech], but we all love her) tells me to inform you that she's going to Cuzco for 3 months in orden to train pujaris and set the standar for the new temple they're building. She's studying some english. She's planning to go to India by January and stay for a while. She's been trying very hard to be useful here but sadly the people here don't appreciate her great service and qualification. Chosica could be much more that actually is with her help. Head pujari from Mayapur Institute!  Anyway, maybe she's meant for something else. Maybe India is the best for her.

HpS - Please offer our respects to her and tell her to send more news as she can. Her Sankirtan is very inspiring. We will be in India in January also.

Than you very much for listen to me.

your servant LAD

Coming soon...hot topics...politics and education in Perú.

HpS - O.K.  We will read other "Little Urgent" letter and write the DTC.  It is 8.38PM and there are loud conversations in the house, so it is hard to think, but your message is loud and clear and very nice.
