Hare Krsna.

Was so devestated physically that could not even crawl to mangala arati at the Temple this morning.

Ayiiii de mi!

Caramba!!

Awake. 16 rounds done before Mangala arati with the internet limited also.

Listened to Radha krsna Das class.

Was inspiring.

---0---

One hour and ten minutes on the phone with Sri Ni Vasa Das and worked out 90% of the calendar for the next three months.

Then Boise posted here and we started focusing on that trip after the next three months.

Jaya!

Looking good. Rise up to the horizon.

Hari Bolo.

Boil some milk for Madhava and Radha now.

(For Uncle Jess and Aunt Sally) 🐎

You can sing all your songs in the sunshine.

You can pass all your days in the light.

If only you remember His mercy.

And travel all your trails in His sight.

The young years they soon turn to old ones.

Golden boys and girls they turn to dust.

But there's a world high above all the others.

And we'll go there if His promises we trust.

The women-wine and flesh of dear creatures,

No love upon your heart they will bestow.

They will bind up your soul forever,

Until the real light of truth is just a glow.

So take you place in the choirs of the faithful.

Take you feasts by the sides of Godly Souls.

Run and dance in the green fields and orchards

Where the gold grains they billow and grow.

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Thank you very much for your comments. The images were created using artificial intelligence in order to avoid any conflicts with BBT copyrights. In 2021, my Gaura Nitai deities were broken while I was traveling through the mountains. Since then, I have understood that I should have bronze deities, but I believe it is better for me to go to India personally and choose the ones I like the most. However, I still do not have time to travel.

These are the links to my project in English, although I will change the background music in the new edition:

Jagat Pavitram Das (Peru)

HpS - This was sent 3-3-3... Three months, three weeks, three days ago.

Of course, we met in Peru and had such nice discussions of all of this.

From the beginning we have been worried about copyright issues, because we have seen other such beautiful!!! projects develop and then have the BBT with-hold copyrights.

Are you using BBT text?

Such a nice project.

please accept my humble obeisances, All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Best to stand and deliver now! We're on our way to Tennessee, don't want to forget this in my passionate fever.

16 plus rounds as time permits, always done though with no quips.

4 principles still stand, though need to watch out for the temptations of sweets.

Actually, enjoy maintaining the brain, the heart is discovering new spiritual plains.m

Your servant, ccd

HpS - ASA - Took us three months + to get to this, but worth the wait!!!

See you in a minute.

Join Nimai at Goloka's gate.

Hare Krishna querido hermano espiritual disculpe la tardanza del envío de esta imagen de mi Sankirtan por Panamá. Sankirtan jaya ki Jay! Shrila prabhupada ki jay.

HpS - Gracias, Prabhu!! Hari Bolo!

diary of a traveled creature.

it, the location of the sun 😎 is 4.59 post meridian here in houston texas usa.

our eyes hurt.

guess that is the end of looking attentively at little letters on the screen.

been here one week now.

back home, back to dog head.

everyone here has a dog or cat.

it is end of the white race.

that was evident to some as soon as they saw bald headed men from the east preaching the ways of the old ones.

Srila Prabhupada, what will happen if there is a nuclear war???

SP: Oh, very nice! We can just sit down and chant HK. We won't have to deal with all this headache of preaching anymore, yet it will also make people more interested in spiritual life.

Getting in touch with all the local devotees: Houston, Richmond, Nashville, Dallas, Boise. Calendar for next three months is emerging.

Contacting US government.

Got tickets and appointments, calendar emerging.

Radha Krsna das is down below. He will leave for three months at the end of the month.

Whole Yatra here is so big.

Two hundred people for Sunday Festival on an ordinary Sunday.

Next big festival is Lord Nrsmha.

We are scheduled for SB classes one to two times a week.

We need systematic study.

Whatever you are reading it should be in perspective of the whole Bhaktivedanta Library. If you are reading any book, it should be because of how it fits into all of the rest of the books intimately.

Yes, the elephant has nose, ears, tusks, legs, sides, tail, but you cannot separate them. They are part of the elephant. Try to separate his tail from the body and see what happens.

Part but also parcel.

If you are holding onto the elephant at the rear end properly then you know what the person is feeding him at the front end and you can give advice. "Less fruit!".

Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna.

Better to die chanting Hare Krsna.

Krsna sends us deep challenges.

If you do not feel that you have deep opportunities to advance in going back home at every minute you are missing what's happening to you.

Krsna is giving you chance to choose how to gratify your tongue, but He is also giving you chance to peruse Indra loka, or Vaikuntha, within the external, material experiences you meet.

Do not fear. You have something ESSENTIAL to offer that no one else can offer.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to HH Hanumat Presaka Swami Guru Maharaj.

Hare Krsna dear Guru Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances at Your sweet, merciful lotus feet.

HpS - The same to you and more of it. 🙂 Do you have feet or hooves in your svarupa???

Sorry for the delay....wanted to share so many stories...don't even know where to start..

We begin with Shantipur festival...the first in my life...mango groves everywhere...endless queue...endless seva...we later heard the next day Mangal arti announcement that this year...it broke all records...50,000 prasadam plates distributed by ISKCON, Mayapur...All glories to Srila Prabhupada....standing in the queue was worth it...

HpS - I guess we can give up on "Back home. Back to Godhead". This is home, this is already Godhead.

The prasadam was simply great...I did not take the tomato chutney as I was more interested in Khichri and subjee....and when I requested some seva...the sweet devotees gave me a bucket full of chutney....there Sri Advaita laughing at me...for refusing chutney...hahahaha....then nobody was really taking it...and was really worried whether poor self will have to loiter here and there without nobody taking the chutney....just as these thoughts ran in my monkey mind....one by one...the devotees called...here...here...chutney please...chutney please...there in just about 45mins...not a drop of chutney was spared....Thank you Guru Maharaj....in Your sweet name I offer this

Seva...for those who visited Shantipur

Had a holy dip at Mother Ganga...joined a great, great Ganga arti and Puja....

Visited Yogapeeth....Chand kazi samadhi...ghosala...Srivas angan...and Rajapur Jagannath....what a feast...we booked for 17 of us...we'll ahead of Gaura Purnima..

Classes were so nice...

A day before Gaura Purnima, the Matajis offered Vasant Raas at Sri Anuprabhu and then again on the same day...at Gopaldev Mandir....thank you Guru Maharaj...for the strength and will to offer our humble services

Gaura Purnima at Mayapur...ecstatic as always....at night we left for Sri Jagannath Puri...

Got a dip at Puri....so purifying....

Had Sri Jagannath, Baladev and Subhadra Ma's darshan...

Then leela unfolds....as we were attending Mangal arti at ISKCON, Puri....a mataji just sat next to me...we were reciting the rudra geet...after the arti...she asked me ...where I am from? Then asked whether I would like to have darshan of Adi Jagannath....the sweet, sweet NeelMadhav....took some mins to decide....as I did not want to break from the group....somehow 2 matajis from the group wanted to be with me....that's when I said to the Mataji ....and we went all the way...a good 90kms from Puri....by auto...bus...then another vehicle to climb up the Brahmadri hill....the first time we had Darshan of NeelMadhav....we had darshan of Sri Raam mandir on our way to Sri NeelMadhav

Next day we went Alarnath....we cried seeing the body print of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu on that flat rock....everything came alive...

Had darshan of Tota Gopinath....Gambhira....Adi, Madhya and Antya all covered .....Thank you Guru Maharaj....we realised much later

Then....Hanuman and His mystical magic....

As we were to leave Puri, we went for just one last darshan at Sri Jagannath Puri....one mataji and myself were walking in the premises....suddenly...this man starts following me....asking me where I want to go....I told him...I am looking for the South gate as the Pujari asked me to be there....then he kept following ...his eyes were shinning brilliantly....at 4pm....then he told us....wait...before you go to the East and South gate...watch the change of flag with me....then....

He narrated the arti of Hanuman daily before changing the flag...how wind speed comes down after the arti....He narrated a lot of pastimes....something dauned in me....I asked his mobile number....He said...I don't have a mobile....so strange....then he said...don't worry...I live nearby...Next time you come you will find me...

Then I ask for a pic with him....then he said...we can take the pic later...I will tell you how to look at Sri Jagannath...

Then I asked him how many times have you joined Rath Yatra....then he said 8 times....immediately I was reminded of Astasakhis....I couldn't help myself...just took his hands and paid my obeisances....

We forgot to take pics...I landed at East gate....and then Pujari was waiting there....I never saw the man again

Vasudev, the Pujari lead us to have Garbha griha darshan...followed by Sri Jagannath's mahaprasadam

Started BG classes....new one for children and young ones who are reading for the first time....started last Sunday on Papamochana ekadashi..

Will be starting IDC on Saturday

Continuing with our morning and evening classes.

Every Monday we ( 25 of us) read the book Speaking about Varnasrama, with HG Devarshi Prabhu. Thank you for your mercy Guru Maharaj....may I be able to give everything for Your service ....Hare Krsna dear Guru Maharaj

Sending some pics of the yatra...

Your insignificant servant,

Sarad Gaurangi DD

HpS - Do you just read BG As It Is from cover to cover or do you extract topics, purports?

You never now who you are dealing with in the Holy Dhama's no?
