Visiting Boise for Rath Yatra
Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj. Dandavat Pranams. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
I am chanting 16 rounds and following the regulative principles.
HpS/ASA - Me too! AgtSP!!!!
Janmashtami at the Atlanta temple went really well.
ASA - 20,000 plates of Prasadam?
We are trying to worship our Paramananda Gaura Nitai very nicely. Vishaka dresses them beautifully everyday (Attached picture - Orange dress today).
ASA - They must be very proud. They must be showing off how nicely They are dressed to everyone in the area, Nabadvipa.
We are currently in San Francisco at some devotees friend's house. They just had their Gaura Nitai deities (attached picture - green dress and taller) installed at their home by H. G. Vaisesika Prabhu. He gave them the name Parama Karuna Nitai Gaura.
HpS - I took first initiation in the same letter where he took 2nd initiation. We were in the San Francisco Temple, 455 Valencia St. together.
I have a couple of Tava Pache Pache books and was planning on presenting one to Vaisesika Prabhu, but my hosts told me that He already had one. I will anyway try to give him one if He doesn't have it.
HpS - He is excellent scholar and if he has one he would know to whom to give the second.
We will be celebrating Radhashtami at ISV.
We have made an on-the-fly plan to visit Boise for the Rath Yatra. So excited to meet You during the Rath Yatra Guru Maharaj. Boise Rath yatra was my first Rath Yatra in the US in 2018.
ASA - Wow! Jagannatha Baladeva and Subhadra will be delighted to see you!
Eagerly awaiting to get Your association Guru Maharaj.
Your humble servant
Sri Rama Krishna Das
HpS - Hope you got connection with Niti-sara Das for accommodation and service.
