I am very happy

 I am very happy, for Haripada dasa

Some time ago I prayed to Srila Prabhupada and to God or Krishna to send me mature and pure devotees of Krishna, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna, now I am associating with such devotees, I am very happy, it is not necessary to mention their names because such devotees are very humble and do not like to be glorified.

These pure devotees of Srila Prabhupada obey the order of Srila Prabhupada and initiate in his name, thanks to one of them I have learned of the glories of the perfect devotee of Srila Prabhupada, said devotee named Jayananda Prabhu practiced Krishna consciousness for 10 years 1967- 1977 and sacrificed his life to please Srila Prabhupada, and when he left the body Srila Prabhupada wrote a very nice letter and said that he was now in the spiritual world, in Goloka Vrindavana.

These devotees have a lot of love for Srila Prabhupada, and they want everyone to serve and love Srila Prabhupada. One can see how powerful this chant is.The Maha-Mantra Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare (the H is read as J for jota), is said in the Sacred Scriptures that by chanting the word Krishna only once, one can counteract all sinful activities, of course you have to chant on the pure platform, in the chanting of the Hare Krishna Maha-Mantra there are three stages, one is the offensive chant, There are 10 offenses that are made when singing, then there is the clarifying stage, and then pure singing, it is said in El Chaitanya Charitamrita that if one sings with offenses, one can spend millions and millions of lives singing and one will never reach the goal of singing which is to have love for God. That is why there are very demonic people who dress as devotees and pose as devotees, but all they do is deceive and take advantage of innocent people, only a pure devotee can understand another pure devotee.

What I mean by this message is that the most important thing in spiritual life is association with devotees, once a devotee told Srila Prabhupada that Jesus Christ said that I am the way, the truth and the life, and Srila Prabhupada He told him that this is very true, because without the association of a pure devotee, no one can become a pure devotee, I am very happy and happy to see that there are still devotees of Srila Prabhupada who have things very clear and without wanting anything in return They share all their experiences with everyone, I sense that people are already fed up with so many deceptions, that people want to live the truth, the truth will set you free, I remember a program on television and there was a psychologist who said very interesting things , I remember that he said that the result of material and atheistic life, he is a very believing person in God, is that people suffer a lot, and the most important and necessary people for now will be the spiritual advisers, of course this s spiritual advisers will be pure devotees of God and will not cheat people by charging money.

 Best friends, by Haripada dasa

A friend is that person who always wishes us our good, in which one has a relationship based on love and trust, and one knows that there will never be betrayal, our best friends are God or Krishna and His devotees, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada we understand that God or Krishna in His Paramatma or Supersoul form is in the hearts of all living entities, and He is our best friend because He never leaves us.

By the mercy of Srila Prabhupada we understand and accept that we are all in the material world for having misused our free will, it is very interesting what is said in the book of Krishna in the chapter entitled the prayers of the personified Vedas, there it is said that there cannot be any influence of chance on living entities, they have knowledge and, therefore, they are called chaitanya, which means knowingly, their location in different conditions of life, therefore, it is not accidental, it is due to they have chosen like this, since they have knowledge, in other words, that is, it is we who have turned our backs on God or Krishna and have come to this material world, and God or Krishna is so friendly and merciful to us that he believes the material world for the living entities to play God or Krishna.

 The fall of the soul to the material world was illustrated very well by Jesus in the parable of the prodigal son, the son told his father that I want my part of the inheritance to have a life independent of you, the inheritance was spent pleasing his senses with prostitutes, wine, etc., when he had money he had friends, when he ran out of money he ran out of friends and saw himself eating carob beans with the pigs, there he reflected and realized the big mistake he made, he thought with my father he had his love and I never lacked anything, I had everything, what a big mistake I have made, I am going to ask my father for forgiveness, and when he got to his father he threw himself on the ground crying and asking his father for forgiveness, his father was very happy to see his son again and hugged him, and then made a big festival to welcome his son.

Srila Visvanatha Thakura in his book entitled Madhurya Kadambini illustrates very well the entry of the spirit soul into the spirit world, when the spirit soul comes to the spirit world in the form of a cowherd boy and sees Krishna faint, then Krishna goes there and It says that I know all the sufferings that you have had to undergo to be My devotee in the material world, because I have always been with you, all your friends and family despised you, they all thought you were crazy, and you had to tolerate everything for Me, and I have not done anything as a reward for all your sacrifices, therefore I have become your debtor, then the spirit soul tells Krishna that to satisfy my desire to serve at your lotus feet, you deposited the syllables of Your mantra in my ears, You destroyed my sufferings, You purified me with the process of hearing, chanting and constantly remembering Your qualities and Your name and through association with Your devotees You made me understand how to do e service to you, a person as miserably selfish as I deserves to be punished, but on the contrary, you have made me drink nectar by showing me your own personality.

The bottom line is that our best friends are God or Krishna and His devotees.

Hare Krishna

  Hare Krishna, with love and confidence I share this message that I have sent to the President of Spain.

Hello, thanks for your reply, now I am writing to ask you 2 questions:

1 The entire government has sworn allegiance to the King and the constitution, which will happen if the government makes arrangements for the Catalans and Basques to become independent of Spain, that the entire government will go to jail for treason and make false oaths.

2 They have done many ministries, there is some ministry that helps people free themselves from lust, anger, greed, envy, ignorance and pride, that helps people understand that the goal of human life is knowing God and loving him, that helps people understand the law of Karma, the law of action and reaction, infallible justice, that helps people understand that the cause of climate change is that Nature punishes us because We do not want to obey God's laws, to help people understand that the result of practicing atheism and materialism, is that people live full of anxieties, unbalanced and very disturbed, to help people understand that we are not the temporary material body, but eternal spiritual souls, if people knew those things they would live full of peace and prosperity, and there would be no more gender violence.

Waiting for your reply, attentively, Jose Javier Figuerola Perez.

There are two kinds of gurus

 There are two kinds of gurus, by Haripada dasa

In the book entitled Amrita - vani by Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura says that there are two kinds of gurus, one is sent by God or Krishna from the spiritual world and it is for very serious and sincere people in the spiritual life and as God or Krishna knows that there will be many people who will want to be deceived there is another guru who is false or unauthorized, that guru deceives himself and others.

Only the great personality that has been sent by the Lord from the spiritual world to the material world to save the conditioned souls like us, who frees the afflicted people from the three types of anguish and sends them back to God, who is very dear to the Supreme Lord and that you represent, and who is the herald of the transcendental subject, is able to act as our spiritual master, the first step in obtaining perfection is the refuge in a spiritual master, through the Thanks to the Lord, the person receives a spiritual teacher according to his personal requirements. But if we are lucky and sincerely seek a genuine spiritual master, and if we humbly pray to the Lord, you get the grace of such a guru, then, by the grace of God you will get a guru of good faith in this life, then by taking refuge in Him our life will be a success.

I share that last November I made an account on Facebook, it is called Haripada dasa and I put a very nice picture of Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura, now I have almost 3000 friends, almost all of India, in the 5 song of Bhagavatam it is said that He who was born in India, is because he has done many pious activities in his past lives, and also Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu instructed that all who were born in India, must become Krishna conscious and their life will be successful and help others People to do the same.

On Facebook I participate in several Hare Krishna groups and I put my spiritual messages, several people who like my messages tell me that you are my guru, so that there are no misunderstandings I tell you that here the only authorized guru is Srila Prabhupada, and if you want you and I can be friends and spiritual brothers, so I don't fool myself or anyone else.
