Peru letter not yet received by me.

Monkey Piggy answer:

Yes! ☹ I don't know what has happened with them after I started this travel. Only 5% contact. When I hear this it gives me INTENSE stomach pain. I have to ask, "Am I doing my best? Am I choosing right priorities?"

Only one day and I am 75% adapted to local Asrama function! Not an easy task. 🐘

Spent two hours with Gauranga Darshan Das Brahmacari. He is biggest curriculum development scholar in ISKCON. Over 6-hundred pages of didactic material. Tomorrow and next day two hours more including his students and teachers. 😲

Can't use someone else's phone here! No towers!

Help!

Hare Krsna. Internet may fail at any moment so we write fast.

We are in Gujurat at Atmarama Das school. It is in the country with 16-acres, 50-cows and 120 students. It has dropped a lot since when it started there was only his school with English media and now there are 50. People have become much more materialistic and want High Tech educaiton for the children. Dont want them to work with cows!

Is a lot of stress for us.

Packed with travel and programs.

Now so many devotees want us to join their programs ans squeeze in air trip here and there but our body cannot handle it. We live on the edge of reality with the full morning program as a life and death choice. We are waiting for Rama-giridhari Das to come back from an unexpected trip to organize local Rathyatra. We may miss our trip to the Eco-village.

Hare Krsna!

The Holy Names and Guru-padma are our only shelter.

Internet has not been too good, so our ASA daily workshops are not too good.

In the time between the five programs a day we work on the essay for the Gaudiya-matha program.

It has come off pretty good - writing academic papers in the middle of a rowboat in the middle of the ocean.

O.K. Close here before the inter net goes.

Yahoo blocked our mail but seems o.k. now.

Insanity in a bag. Ha! Ha! Hare!

Another endless day. Up at 11.30pm. Answered 23-letters including sending itinerary to GM. Then Yahoo blocked my mail because they thought some one had hacked it from India. Took about one hour to resolve that. Them out from 8.30-6.30 for home, academic, temple programs and finally three hours dancing in Rathayatra.

Good night

Hare Krsna, Prabhus,

AgtSP. Paoho.

Three in the morning in RGDD flat in New Mumbai. It is a little warm. Our eyes have reached their limit working on our article for the Gaudiya-matha symposium.

Jet lag, travel, we are working pretty well. Already the programs are beginning to sprout up around us. Rtu-Raja Das et al coming to join us. Have this moment to write to you.

Trip from USA was long and hard even Business Class, but was O. K. Now get internet access, contact sponsors. We depend on you all. At this point we are 90% responding to the environment and only little bit able to keep our personal identity by chanting Hari Nama within our self.

O. K. bath and drive to FMP at the Temple.

Thank you.

Hare Krishna Beloved Gurudeva

AGTSP PAMHO

Gurudeva today I did not join FMP because my mom nowadays is at home and me and my sister were assisting her.

Gurudeva I was feeling mixed feelings. Like anger, compassion, fear, love. Because I feel good assisting my mom but I feel fear to just focus on her and not live my life. My sister and I nowadays have a very intense time. We are exhausted. I sometimes think that I am a bad person for having these doubts and mixed feelings. I do not like to feel that my mom is a burden.

I am watching YouTube. I have found a channel of a priest who is a Saint Francis follower. He is very nice. His preaching is through YouTube. My soul feels refresh watching these kind of things

When I was a kid I used to have the desire to be a nun. I guess I will be a nun with Glamour haha

Gurudeva tomorrow you start your tour. So what will happen with FMP??? You asked me to write about this on the blog.

I hope to survive during your tour. Hope to travel with You pretty soon .

I have very nice pictures. I will figure it out how to upload them

Your insignificant servant

HpS - Hare Krsna. I guess your feelings are natural. Our current cultural does not educate us how to deal with these natural things. Pretty stupid culture. So work them out yourself with chanting, association of devotees and keeping association with Srila Prabhupada in his books! In the end it will have good result.

FMP. We just did it here alone in Mumbai. RGD got back at 12PM from program. Thank you for writing here. Thank you so much. I guess we have to smile and say, the obvious answser is that we don't know. Here we are in Mumbai after several days and three airports and we are just trying to get internet and telephone etc.

Would you like to be the Organizer? Anyone else? It may be a lot for you, though my experience has been that even in the middle of very stressfull programs, doing the FMP alone while 7-other devotees slept later, it was always very good. I was able to deal with the other programs so much more intelligently and with physical vigor.

You? Others?

We have not had a lot of communication in planning this trip, so now that we are here and can call people, and that we are arriving in a few days in the different Yatras, many things are starting to happen.

Actually, if no one sees any contribution that we can make to their Sankirtan, then it is not necessary for us to travel and visit. Of course, we will continue to look and see how we can contribute, but in general, we do not need to stay in this illusion, no? Your Mother is not dying. Her cell phone is dying.

HpS - ASA in Seawood, New Bombay!! Nice weather here.
