Hare Krsna! Hare Rama! Jaya Radha, Jaya Shyama, Jaya Sri Vrndavana Dhama. AGTSP! paoho.... It is 7.02AM... We go for Mangala arati, chant during a lot of extra hymns that the Temple does after MA and until just before Srngara arati and Guru-puja. During that we come back to our cave and read and write.

Yesterday was a donkey killer from Daytona! Three lectures. Tough lectures. The first was a Regional Medical Conference sponsored by the local university hospital, RIMS. We had to struggle to understand the audience and then put a PPTX together, but it was good. We were impressed but the love of the scientists for their work, the level of dscipline and organization existing in Manipur. Right before us was Medical Ethics and then we pushed it to Integral Medicine - Body, Mind and Spirit. Audience was about two hundred and the Doctors and Professors and Chairpersons listed with continuous attention. We saw that we could have followed up a lot more. This is Manipur. B. S. Damodara Swami is from here and he is a reknowned scientist.

Some war, bloodshed, with mosquitos here.

Next was NOI seminar third day. Eight nice students. We are reviewing our study guide.

Finally, regular ASA Saturday Morning ABC symposium. We were dog-donkey-dumpling tired but we knew that once we got on line and associated with devotees it would be possible. Upendra, Sugopi radha, explained their weeks reading and HpS summarized the classes from Kolkata, Manipur and showed the RIMS pptx in summary.

Too tired to do Reports or post this DTC.

Now, 12-rounds done, leaving for Tubal at 8AM for 6-hour program. B. S. Damodara Swami's birth place. Nice shrine there.

We will nap, bathe, and work on the Annual Reports.

Today is Ekadasi!

Watching for Urgent news in the Blog.

Hare Krishna, please accept my respectable obeisances.

all glories to prabupada founding acharya of iskon.

I've seen I have already committed offences by not staying in communication with you. this must be proof that I'm unfit to be your deciple.

Forgive me,I feel I already have a deep connection with you.and feel this is Krishnas arrangements. my heart says this is a person who cares about me.

I've been back in the USA for about a month and a half. i thought I was done with India, but apparently India is not done with me. already I want to make return plans.

HpS - India has some special spiritual features but within India are Vrndavana and Mayapura et al which are very spiritual.

I've talked to the temple president and sounds like he wants me to sign some kind of contract. i already do Seva on weekends and started a Sunday program,for people who can't make it to the temple. once weather gets warmer we'll go to the beach and have harinam.

Yeah I have taken the IDC course. vary helpful.

Please I'd love to talk to you, once you're back stateside.

If you'll be attending SF ratha yatra, I'd love to render service.

I'll be retiring in 2020 and hoping to find a ashram where I can be of some use.

I learn so much from your letters to others and find suggestions vary helpful

I'll let you know about my progress with the temple president.

You're servant.mike Jarvis

HpS - Yes, I would also like to talk with your after the 27th! WHen we arrive in Houston. We will be in Boise from the 8th-15th maybe you could visit the Temple there during that time! I think there is a good ticket from Seattle. You could tell Anantarupa Das, the Temple President that we have been talking and I suggested you visit! You seem to be progressing very nice in spiritual life. ! ..

Hare Krsna.

AGTSP. Paoho. Little overcast. Some dust and smoke in the air. We are out near the airport. Lots of empty land away from the road here. Temple is quite Oriental looking.

Not strong emphasis on Japa and SB here. More on Arati, Kirtan, manual service and good Prasadam.

We are half way through the Disciple Reports - like 34 done and 32 to go. It is interesting, we only formally have 66-disciples. That even seems mangeable.

Few reporters are behind on ther rounds. 90% following four regs. Everyone doing good service. We are asking to hear about their families a little more, here in the Blog. Without the help of the family, participation of the family, even as critics sometimes, how can we be doing good service. Of course, some are STRONG brahmacaris (:>>>====>) head toward Sannyasa(??). They need nice administrative authority. Sannyasis administrating B'caris.

O.K. Now we should prepare for the NOI seminar, day two. About four ladies and 8 gents. Finished into to the course and Preface and Text One yesterday. Chanting the Goswami Astaka.

Trying to fix the calendar for USA when we get back. Abhirama Das says Ambassador may not help in our relations with San Marcos because he feels we are religious.

Hmmm. Hare Krsna, Hare Rama!!

Checked the Blog for any URGENT letters.

AGTSP

paoho

Did another 7 reports! Fighting fever from all the dust blowing in the wind in Manipur. Many people wear masks. Culture is incredible here. Gave class this morning. Told a lot of stories. Very simple, nice devotees here. Now in 33-minutes we start our NOI seminar. About 200-devotees will eventually come from all over the North East. We worked a lot on the NOI study guide and talked with Rama-gir-dhara Das about the NIOS/MOE calendar, and Dr. Samaresh ran his heart out to get the paper to the printer to get Siksa Darsha on line for 19th March release.

Hare Krsna!!!!

Hare Krishna Dear Gurumaharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

We started answering the Disciple Reports. We got like 7-done and the web-page won't post them. Happens for some time.

I checked error logs and found issue. When user who sent report had no email set on their profile it made error.

Now should be fixed and work correctly.

Please let me know if you have still any issues with it or other things.

Your servant Prahlad Nrsimha das

HpS - AGTSP paoho Thank you for removing bugs from our board.

AgtASP Paoho. We are in Manipura. It is 2.08PM. We are only partially destroyed by mosquitos, malaria and dengue like flies. The weather is a little cold but nice. It is so remote here. More remote than Kolkata. If you are from Peru or California you cannot imagine how different it is here or in Kolkata. A different world.

We should be dead.

Maybe we are dead.

We started answering the Disciple Reports. We got like 7-done and the web-page won't post them. Happens for some time.

We will give NOI seminar here and go to one wedding and one university program.

Dr. Samaresh has almost published the next book, but got very dizzy from fatigue so had to wait one day. Now we take a quick bath and leave for Thoubal, the wedding, 1/2-hour from here. Is very different culture. We hope you all can come to Manipur next year. We should make a movie. Adventure/detective movie.
