Letter to Students -
Hare Krsna,AGTSP paoho. Attached are our BG 14 Afterwords.
We hope you can squeeze some juice out of them.ASA! Partha
sarathi Das - Pamo agtSP! Nice.. Looks great.. Did 64 books downtown amsterdam
today! HpS
- AGTSP pamho. We did a 1-1/2 hour
class for Rabbi Rami's World Relgions
class at Middle Tennesse State University. We
didn't distribute any books, although we tried and everybody thanked us
twice. Ooof! We have to improve. {It
is 4.58PM we just reviewing our StudentÕs responses to the 3rd
Semester Evaluations.} Graduate We
are actually making progress in memorizing our Bhakti
vaibhava verses. We donÕt get chance to do much
more. When Sesa Prabhu
and everyone are here for this NIOS symposium we hope to squeeze in a little
more work. Again our first draft
of our suggested curriculum is at the following address and we are waiting
for VEDAS to give us their opinion. (TTD) Sticks
and Stones -- Word Classical Literature This
has to be edited into the NIOS Web page. I guess we will get to all that when we are in Boise. The
current review is for classical Detective novels, Agatha Christie, Sherlock
Holmes, Father Brown. www.jayarama.us/archives/NIOS-Father
Brown.doc Wandering Miscreants Oink! Oink! Whoop!
WHooop! Are we ever tired, but not too sleepy. I think this is exactly how we
should run the body. It is 5PM
now. Like two hours on the KD so
far! Jaya! We
were in Houston for the start of the Fortnight. So many nice, nice home programs. Nice Graduate students,
devotees, Western dudes. Mostly
we did our Bhakti sastri
BG chapter. Also
the Temple programs. There is a
war to get the Houston Temple open.
It is so big. We
have also been doing so much work, as usual, to arrange the future travel. We
started with our tickets for South America in November at $2,600, but after
three days of work. Looking one
day in advance, one day before, we got it down to $1,500 for San Francisco,
Lima, Sao Paolo, Buenos Aires, Lima, San Francisco.
Then we thought, what if we break the San Francisco – Lima and the Lima
South America travel into two separate round trips. Then it dropped down to $1,100!!!!!! (But the Master Charge wouldnÕt
permit the charge for South America unless we called them
which was a trip!).
Ooof.
Now we are just doing the tickets and programs for USA. We mailed of DVDs and blow-ups
to our sponsors. Hmm! But how many books will we
distribute!? And
of course we are now going into INSANITY with this NIOS Symposium. Just got
word that Rabbi Rami Shapiro will attend. Many reknown
scholars. Have report in next Kapi Dhvaja. PiggyÕs
Diary is at: www.jayarama.us/archives/dtcp100822.doc Calendar We
just updated the Òcal.txtÓ file with all the North America stuff. Basically we are here in Tennessee
until next Tuesday and then Brother Ass goes to Boise for one week and then
to San Jose. Next Kapi Dhvaja is there. 22 Sept! Letters to the Editator For

PAMHO!
I'm
living in a first house of our vaisnava viallge near Yaroslavl (it's
about
60 km away from it and 15 km from anoher small
town).
We still don't have the electricity though the
electricians are promising to
make it by the
end of this winter. To get the Internet connection I have to
climb
onto the roof... But in general life here is much more conductive for
study and sadhana
than in a sity. We are planning to make an educational
center here and invite devotees to come
study and live what they study.
There
are huge fields here (more than 250 acres) and forest on all sides. No
karmis around. We are praying that one day you
will visit our place and
bless us with speaking
the Srimad Bhagavatam.

Beloved Gurudeva: AGTSP, AGTU, paoho Gurudeva

cantuta ... also
next meeting of VEDAS is going to be on October 2nd due to radharani's appearance
day we all are involved in a festival and then another festival jayyyyyyy ok
that is all See U soon Gurudeva 2. Hare Krishna All Glories To Srila
Prabhupada Please accept my humble obeisances Dear Maharaj: My name is Nadia Villar.
I attended the last ASA Chile meeting, I'm working with Priya
Sakhi in this project and I am supporting Jagad Guru in his service of translating the ekadasi reports. I had the pleasure of meet you at Dharmesu hall last time you came to Santiago and I
attended almost all of your lovely lessons. I am very happy to serve devotees
in this. Jagad Guru says it
seems that Krishna reminds him his new responsibility and he fell ill the
same day that devotees asked him for taking the position. He was so sad for
not being able to send the report by himself. Anyway, this ekadasi
has brought lots of good news that pleased to every of us, despite the cold.
Hare Krishna! Your Servant Nadia Villar Bijam Report - 4th September 2010 Hare Krishna All Glories To Srila Prabhupada Please accept our humble obeisances. At last we had our
eagerly awaited meeting this ekadasi. Very good! Madhu Mangala, Arjuna, Jagad Guru,
Priya Sakhi, Guru Govinda, Rodrigo Hern‡ndez, Valentina Silva y Nadia Villar
atended. There is a lot of news
in this report. There is too much good energy and good ideas floating in the
air. Good communication among the group meeting this ekadasi.
News First thing defined was
the board of the foundation which will be the branch
of ASA here in Chile. Legal definition demands us the existence of at least
four board members. First, a Founder (whose vote is valid twiceÉÒooopss!!Ó), a President, Treasurer and Secretary. The Founder is Madhu Mangala, who will assume
the full responsibility to donÕt lose the foundation course. Now, the new
president is Jagad Guru das, because his brother Ananda Vardhana left the
position owing to lack of time (this is like the NapoleonÕs Monarchy:
everything within the family); Vice President is Arjuna
Das, Priya Sakhi assumed
the office of secretary and Bhakta Mauricio Gaggero is the Treasure. He is the devotee who translated
the conference of HpS at Escuela
de Ingenier’a in Santiago and he will take
initiation next January from Purushatraya Swami,
from Brazil. Another important news
is that we agreed about the foundationÕs name. This agreement was magical, it
was not necessary waste time on that; it came up almost magically: BijamÉ seedÉ Fundaci—n Bijam Chile. But we will have to write it down as ÒBiyamÓ in order to be correctly pronounced by people. Is
it ok? ÀWhich is your opinion? Moreover, nine
foundation departments were established and their possible people in charge:
Education, Environment, Health, Culture, Publications, Personnel Department,
Finances and Coordination. There are other devotees as Bhadra
Gopal, Maha Bahu and Dhanista, whom we
havenÕt talked yet, but they are in the lists. Janmastami
Festival was carried out in the Temple. Everything was wonderful. About 300
people came. The day after Srila PrabhupadaÕs Vyasa Puja was done right there. All devotees was happy with be
back in the Temple and at the same time they was surprised at how refurbished
it is. On the other hand, on
Friday 17th August, Girindra, Priya
Sakhi, Jagad Guru and Kriya Shakti went to share with
more than twenty parishioners of Bahai religion.
They invited some representatives from Hare Krishna Community. They are very
nice and their message is very very very universal. They have their Guru, Bah‡'u'll‡h,
who preached during the XIX century about the unity of Krishna, Moises, Jesus and Mahoma
message. In their center they have the Torah, Bible, Coram and a copy of Bhagavad Gita
as is it by A.B. Bhaktivedanta Swami. It was almost
like being at home. Jagad Guru talked about
philosophy and he almost repeated the same HpS
words at Jew Community; Girindra talked about the
Hare Krishna customs and Priya Sakhi
performed the final kirtan. Many of them danced,
even seniors. Finally there was a books exchange and Prasadam
for everyone. Three of them came to Janmastami. Projects We will talk to the
devotees mentioned above before next meeting that will be next Saturday 25th
September in our beloved Dharmesu hall. That day it
is expected to establish clearly foundationÕs aims and objectives and work
out possible planning for each department. Good news for this ekadasi pleased to every of us. Hare Krishna! 3.Krsna Hare Gurudeva! Please accept our respectful obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
These days of festivals
we had little communication, so we could not make our general meeting but we
had some individual meetings.
We are helping Oscar with
the conference in the Center of Oriental Studies (CEO) of the Catholic
university. Our suggestion is that the activity can be conducted on Thursday,
November 18th. Because after that
you will travel to Brazil, then Argentina and come again at the end of the
year and in January, when there are almost no students at the university.
Hare
Krishna Dear Gurudeva, we hope that the
installation of the deity of Srila Prabhupada in NitaygourasundariÕs
house had been ecstatic. Our humble respect to you, Nitaygourasundar,
Tandava p. and all the devotees of NIOS.
Your servants,
SATTVA Your eternal servants V.E.D.A.S PiggyÕs Parting Pearls It
is 6.42PM. CCD is still stuck in
Houston. We have done our best. Hare!! So
we close this Kapi Dhavja
and send it to you. |
