Reading Upadesamruta

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada and Gurudev.

We very happy and absolutely ready to read Upadesamruta under your direction and to do the home work along with reading Srila Prabhupad's biography.

At present. I'm reading Bhagavad Gita and things which were not clear earlier, slowly revealing the true meaning. And also reading a bit Srimad Bhagavatam and Chaitanya Charitamruta (when they are referenced in BG).

Slowly experiencing the difference between "understanding" and "following/practicing".

Hope to serve the LORD and devotees with you mercy and blessings.

Your humble servant

Subhala sakha Das

              HpS - ASA - Very nice. AGTSP.  Paoho.  How is the family? Who is in the family? Who are your primary associates in Mayapura? How do you make your money. A picture and description of your home altar!!

Our ASA, NOI study guide is at http://www.jayarama.us/archives/tpp-noi.doc

What do you think of it?  Maybe you could edit it and we could co-publish it.

We get to Kolkatta on the 10th morning, February, and then get to Mayapura like 15th evening. We will stay until 24th, then go to Vrndavan and back to USA 1st March! [Lord Vasudeva willing]

Yessss, understanding is Jnana yoga and applying is Bhakti yoga. Of course they are very related, no? If you don't understand then how can you apply? What is family studying?

SUPER -AmbDas- Jung!!!

hare krsna 
agtsp all glories to you guru dev. 

we are improving our chanting  and sadhana now we perform two mangala arati per week with more devotees  and i m traying to be on japa joe more days. i m reading BG and NOI. 

we are organizing the vyasa puja festival and the conference of carl jung and baghavata [bhagavata] here in Buenos aires. i was talking with psychologists and they say that  now the influence of Freud it is not the most strong it s more stronger Lacan who hate Jung, but these is a world of duality and there more than 2 jung s organization in Bs As and thousand of yoga centers, centers of metaphysics and a reborn of enthusiastic Christian people due to the Pope is Argentinian.

HpS - AGTSP!!!!!    We are also improving our Sadhana and chanting. Thank you for your leadership!      When we were in Mexico the King said that Eric Fromm was the prominent Dude for a long time there.
Who is Lacan?  Why he doesn't like Jung? Why don't you call him up for us and say, "Hey, Sri Lacan Ji, why you don't like Jung? My Professor, Hanumatpresaka Swami (Professor Huber Hutchin Robinson) is coming to Argentina January first. He want to meet with you, find out who you are.

Even if they do not like Jung at least he is someone they know and then we can introduce them to the Bhagavata perspective from a perspective they know.

 i attach a link of a conference of carl jung with spanish subtitle , interesting points of view.

A, few week ago Vrsabhanu nandini and i were invited to Buenos Aires Photo, one of the most important exhibition of photo in latin america. was visited for more than 35,000 person and the people were very attract by the photos, india and the writings on the wall who describe and summarize concept of vaisnava philosophy. many question and we were there tolking with them.  we distribute many LOB, some george harrison and the mantra. one day people of galleries and authorities of the cultural center come to us and ask if we can come with musician and performs some chanting and mantras. next day we went with deva rsi narada prabhu, bhimanat prabhu and madhuriambrta to glorify the krsna on that way. Krsna did the magic we only were there.
thank you guru dev for the inspiration, example, instruction and advise.
aspiring to serve Ambarisa m Das
 
Some photos of the exhibition attach.
HpS - ASA - How is ur Father, Mother? You got brother (sister), no? Your dog sends messages from heaven? We visit your house when we are in BsAs???
 
You like www.jayarama.us/gasa? You see the two links in it???  Should we change it? ART gave you name and password for your jayarama.us/bio domain?
 
We have an art exhibition in the Temple while we are there? A cultural program every night? Puppet shows?  Many people bring art and show? Marathon prizes!  Release Jambavati's audio book?
 
The Jung link is super. We watched to 10''. We watch more later. Can see he has so much nice passion for his work. Vedas also deal with dream interpretation. Srila Prabhupada took Sannyasa because of dream interpretation. Is whole useful world for book distribution!!!

-----------------

Hare Krishna Harsh,

Dandavats. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Myself and Prana pr are in Houston (USA) now. We will be in Mumbai on 11th November. You can contact us on our phone

Ramgiridhari: +91-7738181019

Prana Pr: +91-8655408001

Looking forward to see you .

Your servant,

Ramgiridhari Dasa

--------------------------------------------
regarding Prof Bandyopadhyay work ,we have called Giridhari Pr 5  times, phone rings he does not pick or call back. may be have wrong number of his. or he is lost in vrindavan.
we talked to Prof Banyopadhyay, he told us the work, we need to get contact details of Head of Departement (will be referred as HoD hereafter)..of deptt. of history,
------------
we are working on that. however household things/troubles have reduced our speed a lot in both phd, sadhaa and service.

               HpS - AGTSP. Yes, vaidhi bhakti means learning your proper speed to do things. We are also learning that!

...we do get this feeling again and again if we would hv bee unmarried (not in temple) we could have helped u a lot more. we need a lot of help to practical work in this asrama.

                 HpS - Is help to us, whole world to give one human being, baby, chance to become devotee, like Srila Prabhupada!

...for last 4 days our son is sick, he is unable to sleep whole night. we wake up at 2.30 take care of him as espousa/wife is heavily tierd. whole mornig till 7am goes in playing, feeding or calming him. then we chant out rounds some how. Guru -astak is just sung verbally with no lamp or even flower or some times not sung at all. we just give water to Gopal deity before 8am.

i dont know what our priorities should be when we stay in this asrama(if this is asrama at all).


practically our priorities are [son's health and wife's temprament}>16 rounds>4 rules>own health > guru astak>phd>SP books...

only solution which comes CHANT, CHANT,CHANT..mentaly or verbally . any way..thats all we can/ should do.
----
hopefully these external standards does not hinder our intiation.

regards,
horse
              HpS - Sounds like you are doing O.K.  If you are not spiritually strong, how can you help anyone else. Krsna may want to take your child, like Citraketu Maharaja. Krsna has asked for 16-nice rounds from you, so why on earth would he make it impossible for you to do them?

With some sacrifice in other priorities you can get, good, purifying rounds done and then you will find that that sacrifice is helping the other priorities enormously!!!

We just finished proof-reading the Inaugural Session pdf of the Museum book. We found a few very important errors.  It is a good book.

We can only do so much, like you.

But we go ahead, step by step!!!!

Narada is on my window !

AGTSP !! 

Gaura-Nitai  ki jaya !

Please accept our humble obeisances

Dear Maharaja

I hope this letter finds you in good health, we see your schedule is very, very busy, you set an example on how to engage our every bit of sweat and blood in the sankirtan of Srila Prabhupada. High standard !  it's finding its way to every one around you. As you herd this letter we would like to ask a quick question, am I right in thinking that Maya is not the material energy (prakriti) but our interpretation of it ?  the cathegories we hold to it, false ego, etc  in the end material nature was a devotional service from Brahama, great devotee ! jaya !   the work is engage rightly and re-work the paradigmatic dream we have been put into. That is reveal eternal identity.  Redirecting consciousness (awareness). This rascal cowherd has been hidding on the bushes and taking notes, but is getting closer slowly.  We are feeling more centered now, your last advise ended up working just nice.  Working hard with sattva-guna,  didn't go to Montreal Temple for 2 months but just went back.  Living a hermits life almost, very simple, following 4 principles, no internet at home, no cable TV, celibate..etc reading Vishnujanas' lilas and Bhagavatam 1rts canto..Suka and Narada..wow !  and just to begin with..  (we found the demons hidding inside and lettin Govinda take care of them)

We sincerely thank your mercy,  wish the Lord keeps you well.

Raul

from Montreal
