AGTSP!!! Paoho... Sorry if we lost any of your letters!! We had too, too, many at our birthday anniversary and for the end of the year, so we had to glance at them and erase most of them!! Please send again any mail that we missed. That is the best way.

We saw the following in Whataspp!

[9:09 PM, 3/9/2021] Yamunesvar Das Mukta Okram Singh:

11.23.51 Bhagavatam: Purport; ...... Bodily happiness and distress are administered by the demigods, who can never be brought under our control;

What it really meant, I can't understand. Please hightlight me.

HpS - When we look at the translation and purport, https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/11/23/51/, it seems very much like the same idea that we first learned in Isopanishad: https://vedabase.io/en/library/iso/6/, "He who systematically sees everything in relation to the Supreme Lord, who sees all living entities as His parts and parcels, and who sees the Supreme Lord within everything never hates anything or any being."

From a spiritual perspective we are all Krsna's fingers - fingers with free will and creativity, but naturally in harmony, never bothering each other.

In material Bhava there is conflict, I want your samosa, but that is to create the variety in the material world. As soon as we turn away from Krsna then there is NOTHING, so Krsna creates this world of duality. I suffer because I do not have the samosa. The only pleasure I get is in comparison to not having the samosa. Unless I can remember not having he samosa there is no real meaning to having it.

O.K.? It is all dualiti

es. The demigods are administering this according to the laws of Krsna, nature, and are as helpless as us. It is like the Sun. It is very powerful but does not deviate from its orbit.

O.K.? Little more clear?

[11:51 PM, 3/15/2021] Yamunesvar Das Mukta Okram Singh: Dandavat Pranam, H H HpS Maharaja!

How is Guruji's health?

HpS - If you had a 73-year old car, how would you expect it to be? Our health is like that. If are careful with it, it is excellent, very intelligent vehicle.

Are You coming Goura Goura Purnima at Mayapur? Some bhaktas are also going Mayapurfrom Thoubal. This time I will participate Goura Purnima here in Manipur.

HpS - Plan now is to maybe go to South America for one year, back to USA for three months, then Spain for three months, then go to Radha kund and leave body there 2024. Is not fixed but gives idea of how we think we might travel. We see that more and more people will have to return to village life with Krsna to be happy.

No communication with Guruji. I am so sorry.

HpS - Yes, it is like we said above. We had so many messages at new year and tried to answer them but in the end only solution was to look at them little bit and then erase and ask people to write again.

What is the name of the Bhakta who gave us the Tilak clay laddu??

Yours fallen servant,

HpS - ASA: We could not respond to all the mail from our birthday, so we looked at it as best we could. Extracted some which follows, often with no reason, and then ask devotees to write again.

Namacharya Das wrote: First, thank you for sharing these beautiful songs. I would not listen to them so attentively without your mind provoking inputs. Until today, I knew only the Hotel California. In all the songs I liked the lyrics, musical compositions, and performance. I noticed you put the links to the live versions, which again, I prefer to the studio ones.

• Gaura Vani's Compass - Mantra is mellow and soft and the lyrics are deep. The whole musical arrangement is very soothing. I could listen all the time to different maha-mantra melodies in this kind of arrangement (acoustic instruments, soft playing).
• The Band - Somebody is missing from the going to war. Or? Such a nice performance by the musicians. Never before heard this song. 

HpS - It is about the end of the Civil War and what happened in the states and city near where we live. It very much catches the mood of the local experience. There are still many, many monuments and a cemetary with 10,000 body very near to where we live. Prabhupada was willing to go into the mode of passion to preach. He said the Mayapura project was in the mode of passion.

• Eagles - This song I know from before. There is a contrast between lyrics and music. It is deceiving. Music is soft but the words are hard. In lyrics - Deep magnetic feeling of entrapment. I take out one line from it: "We are all just prisoners here of our own device". Device - yantra BG 18.61. Prisoners of the material body and consciousness (and modern gadgets).

HpS - Yes, seems some realization of entering into the world of Maya and how we are making our selves our own prisoners.

Written by Namacarya Das with a help from my-better -half Nirgata Devi Dasi (photo attached - native Istrian [part of Croatia] donkeys)

HpS - We missed the photo!  AS devotees we can see how it is Krsna that is attracting people. He is the fragrance of the earth. That is how 'Hotel California" starts.

HpS - Thank you for taking the time to remind us. Make access easy. We will try to make it more permament feature of the Kapi Dhvaja, though we don't how we should proceed with these Diarys. The more people give suggestions the more we can adapt them.
