All glories to Srila Prabhupada

I hope you are in good health and that your Sankirtana develops favorably. It's been a while since I last wrote you.

ASA - You can say that again!    Six months????

Returning to the city has brought us many surprises, in the beginning it has not been easy, the change of pace, the association and the atmosphere are very different from what we had lived for the last two years. However, one must be a devotee in any circumstance and we are learning to regain balance in seemingly unfavorable conditions, in many cases.

The interesting thing is that by staying aloof from certain things I have been allowed to see them in another way and that has given me some assurance in my spiritual life.
 

I am part of a very favorable study group with Isvari mataji, Tarangaksi dd, bhaktin Rukmini, Nitya Kisori dd, Abhinanda prabhu, Indira Sakti, bhaktin Lourdes and bhakta Juan. We meet to study various topics, exchange affection and ideas and take prasadam. It's been four months now and the group gets narrower each time.
ASA - Sounds like the perfection of life. What does 'narrower' mean?  Fewer people or more focused or..?

Indira Sakti and I are improving in our performance as <s>husbands</s> [partners], we understand each other better, we understand our service better and try to help ourselves in that. We are also studying Bhakti-sastri on line with Laksmana-agraja prabhu. We are happy and finding what we were looking for: a space for discussion in the association of devotees. We look forward to seeing you and serving you soon, Gurudeva.

Your servant
