Dear Tamohara prabhu,
Hare Krsna. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Please accept my fallen obeisances. I hope your sadhana and bhajan are going well.
First of all, there's no "problem". We both know that the material world is such a place - and especially now in regards to how Kali is throwing his influences around - that so many misunderstandings are created even between good friends, Kali's objective to create discord and even out and out enmity (when he can accomplish this).
In the ultimate of everything, even that which appears to be bad has its good (spiritual) purpose, as well as the good lesson(s) to be learned, though in this world of duality, we are not always going to feel something unpleasant as being "good," but at least philosophically we can understand that there is/are some good purpose(s) behind it.... (MUCH EASIER said than accepted/realized.)
Second, there is no question of "vanaprastha," "sannyas," but rather that both of us are trying to develop Krsna consciousness, and are trying to serve Sri Caitanya Mahprabhu's and Srila Prabhupada's desires as best as we can with whatever faculty we've been given, so even if there is some disagreement over something, hopefully we want and will be able to keep that underlying undertanding in mind. And even if let's say neither of us was aspiring to become a devotee, as human beings, we want to hopefully deal respectfully with others, though of course in today's world, with Kali throwing all of his punches, that's easier said than done...
The whole purpose of these ashrams is for enabling us for further development of Krsna consciousness, and if we don't have a proper understanding of our constitutional position as servant of the servant of the servant, then these ashrams names of them - what some at times equate as "being" "a 'position'" - and our misidentification with them materially, will simply be a trick that Maya Devi is using to keep us further in illusion.
When you wrote me the first few emails in regards to that situation, I had NO idea what you were talking about, (and explained/tried to explain that to you, but you were upset, and for whatever reason(s) didn't believe what I was [truthfully] writing, my being totally bewildered by what was happening), and only when you communicated some things further, then I was able to (finally) understand and realize what was going on and why.
Long/short, during that time, my email account was getting hacked into until early March, when the problem was finally solved when a friend from California who knows computers came to visit me, fixed the problem, and did whatever so that this hacker could no longer get into my account anymore. Besides doing other things with my email account - which was causing so much problem for me - the (devotee) hacker took and sent out the few private emails I had forgotten to delete from my "save draft" folder, his doctoring them to make it seem as if I had sent these emails to him, (through whatever address and name he would make up, (even his pretending to be a "she"), adding in his own comments, then sending them out, saying that I had sent the email (about the person) to him/her. (It's Krsna's mercy I use a totally different email address for the free (internet) counseling I do, otherwise his getting into that account would have been horrible.) It was through your email, that I was finally able to find out who the person was who was hacking into my account, and considered it Krsna's mercy that I was able to find out.
I hope all is going well.
May we be safely situated under the shelter of Srila Prabhupada's Lotus Feet, Those of our Guru Varga, the Vaisnavas, and Sri Sri Radha and Krsna.
With love,

Obeisances. AGTSP Just a brief note to say that it is most regrettable that there was disagreement between us. You are sannyasi, i an insignificant vanaprastha, so it is surely i who am the offender, and i beg your kind forgiveness, considering that even Ajamila was not perfect until the end. Elsewhere, you seemed to think i am of a habit of posting disparaging remarks about you, but if you actually look, you will see there is no such thing anywhere, was for a week or two here, lol, i always admired your courage and felt very hurt at the letter dragged up from the past to cause hurt by a-------s among the Prabhupadanugas. So kindly do not disturb yourself unnecessarily. Wishing you good lucks.
You do not need to reply, simply accept my apologies please, and enjoy your chanting as always.

pamho prabhus agtACBSP,actually our only salvation is to keep connected altogether free from all the fake upadhi in the way back home by considering the troublesome age where we are living too,our perfection as we know is to become a genuine gopi bartuh pada kamalayor dasa dasanudasah,nobody is perfect yet after our beloved acharya HDG ACBSP but as we can see through the factor time everything will be taken back again by the supreme owner SRI KRSNA BHAGAVAT, therefore we need to hurry up to do the best we can do to save ourselves first and then whoever else understood this truth of krsna consciousness by getting a strong desire to get out from the misery ,suffering and misunderstanding of this temporary world before we become invalid because more ahead we go and more difficulty will be to become free from the bodily concept of life,our guru maharaj used to look all the time timeless young jubiliant even at old age because HE is a tattva darshinah,we just serve HIM at the best until our last breath because we believe HE is the only one who can rescue us out from all this dangers of kali yuga quarrel and hypocrisy influences,we are nobody we are just trying to get pure bhakti by focus all our thoughts in the vani seva of SRILA PRABHUPADA and that's enough to be save if we keep to practice it all life long without caring for the barking dogs of the false ego,our lives is been already written even before our births used to say SRILA PRABHUPADA therefore our way in the way back home is been also written as soon as our jagat guru will call us back by watching our constant sincerity to sadisfy SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA,thank you for your sat-sanga agtys ys a.c seva das haribol
