All glories to srila prabhupada!
All glories to sri sri guru and gauranga!

Jay Maharaj! How are you? How is your health?

HpS - ASA -- Almost every letter asks: 1) Where are you?, 2) What are you doing?  3) How is your health. We are a little bit naseaus, our Inguinal Ligaments are burning a little etc because of our life in the modes of passion and ignorance a little bit. We are fighting to become perfect, but even to death we will be in the middle of these modes, especially if we are preaching. NOI-6, no?
Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!   How is your health?

Our host, NGD strained his knee just while walking but it seems to be healing. His good wife has to go in for kidney surgery today.

I'm writting you because after a few years I realized that you are my Gurudev and would like to ask you for shelter.

HpS -  What about Krsna!!??  Prabhupada??  http://www.vedabase.com/en/sb/8/24/53 is so nice.  I guess that is some of the shelter we can give, giving some nice stuff to read about Guru. That whole chapter is worth reading.

Also would like to ask you for your blessings for a mental health issue Im dealing with and to quit smoking. Im following all the other principles thanks to krishna.

sincerely,
Federico

HpS - God bless you, Hare Krsna!!   Tell us what you think about that verse and chapter.
