...Por favor acepte mis respetuosas reverencias
Todas las glorias a Sri Guru y Sri Gauranga
Todas lsa glorias sean a Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Todas las glorias a los Vaisnavas reunidos

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj, reciba mi afectuoso saludo, aquí me encuentro leyendo su libro "desde rusia con amor", es muy inspirador! el cuerpo burro estuvo con gripe pero intentamos predicar bastante a pesar de las dificultades. Estamos esperando su visita a chile, asistiremos a una distribución de libros masiva para colectar en motivo de su llegada. 
El salón de las deidades esta bello, se sienten todos los bailes de Gauranga y Nityananda con sus devotos, tuvimos la misericordia de compartir con Tulasi algunos meses, un amigo discípulo de SS Dhanvantari Swami, se encargó de cuidarla y hacerla crecer. Es algo muy elevado! ese kirtan es muy hermoso y esa conexión con su forma de planta es sublime... comprender esa entrega es muy lejano para mi, pero me deleito con estos pasatiempos... desafortunadamente ahora con el frío esta por abandonar el cuerpo, pero la vivencia quedó en mi corazón y estoy muy agradecido...
Estoy ansioso de tener su asosiación prontamente, esperamos poder servirlo dentro de lo que sea posible y hacer comoda su estadía. No se me ocurre mucho para contarle pues acá en el templo usted sabe lo que hacemos diariamente. Estamos tratando de apegarnos más a krishna y verlo en todas partes. Su aspirante a sirviente bhakta martin.

HpS - Hare Krsna. translate.google.com.  It has been very nice to talk with you here. We are now fighting with a fever and using all that our Yoga has taught us. Bhakti yoga includes all the other Yogas. We seem to be winning so far.

If we when we can do nice preaching programs.

We are using the heater in our room as little as possible and even if we do use it, it does not heat the room too much.

We will die of cold one day for sure. We have to learn to live on the heat within and let Krsna take care of the external body, give us inspiration how to take care of it.

We talked about traveling, no?

Again, one Temple President asked Prabhupada to instruct the Brahmacaris that they should not travel. Prabhupada responded that the Grhasthas could adjust things for their comfort but the B'caris and Sannyasis did not have the facility. What they had was the opportunity to travel, so the authorities should not restrict them, but they should not do it capriciously. They should co-ordinate their travels with the President so that he can also adjust the Temple service.

Prabhupada's standard was that anyone living in the Temple and following the program could be initiated after six months, but for second initiation there was more care and qualification. The GBC changed first iniation to one year after Prabhupada I think because they mistook the statement in the Vedas that the disciple and guru should inspect each other for one year before initiation. That is for second initiation as far as I understand.

So, hope to hear from you of all these practical adjustments and see you more in the next few days.

Actually the "regular" program should produce many new results that we can talk about.
