Letters to the editor

Hare Krsna.

Sitting in Mother Puspanjali's living room on the 19th story of this residential high rise in La Paz, Bolivia. About 7-devotees chanting Japa, dressing Krsna, preparing for our trip to the airport and Lima.

Brother Ass still has the allergy on his left wrist, but seems to be gradually diminishing.

Little stomach ache and head ache and vision ache and respiration ache. 7AM now. Answered all the letters up to three days ago and downloaded and transfered Hari lila Das Saturday, God father, Canto Three review to our Cell phone so we can review it on the airplane trip to Lima.

Sankirtan, Sankirtan, Sankirtan.
>>>  Gayatri, bath, pack, 7.30AM >>> Airport.
It is only the miracle of Srila Prabhupada's yoga that we can be working in this heavy atmosphere.

Hare Krsna...    We are still in La Paz.   It is 5.42PM.   Outside we can see big, big mountains around, a stones through away.

Eagles circle the valley. Andeanan music fills the air. It is cold and little air, but our Yoga is strong.

Lunch at Mathuresa's home today. Peas porridge.  Now we have a BIG celebration of 50-years of ISKCON. Minister of Defense et al invited. We leave in 15-minutes. Very good cultural program. We are supposed to speak for 20-minutes. God help us, can be a very big and effective event. God engage us.

Our Yahoo account has been blocked. Tell others. Probably will be blocked until 13th July.

Tried to call Ananda vardhana Das in Chile today but no luck.
Tommorrow we go to Cochabamba.

Wrote about Divorce today.

We see ISKCON growing in political power and influence, but see that the center is still the individual connection to Krsna: Big, small, cook or queen, unless we are a society of 16-enthusiastic rounds minimum, 4-princples strict, yogis it will all fall apart.

Dead done dog tired.

Hare!  Hare!  Krsna...   Chosica to Lima.     Lima, Cusco. Cusco, La Paz.       Yet, the results are worth the inversion.  Now we prepare for the Evening Program. We are camped with Dharmaraja Das in the flat of Very venerable Devota on the 19th story of these residential towers.  Her father was a General in the Bolivian Corp of Engineers.

   There is very little air here. Like 8,000 feet high.    Head-ache and brain strokes can be easy. It is cold. Down to freezing at night.

The trip from the airport [13,333 feet] was delayed by a General Strike by the indigeneous people for three days.

We need your advice on Strategy. We get it from our Japa best but it also needs the eyes of all the rest.

"Solaris" is a good center as far as we know.

Abhirama Thakura and Laksman Agra Ja appear this moment in the top-ten of our hallucinations of partnership. Sankirtan.

Chant One round [bathe, write Dr. Samaresh].

Hare Krishna

The Sacred Psychos conferences was a Great success. We had thousands of donkeys galloping in the street and then asking for more instructions. Now we got 30-minutes to pack our bags and then later we go to Chosica.

See you there.

paoho & bw.

Here we are in Abhirama Das house, ashrama, in Callao, next to Lima. It is a little cool. It is 4.00AM. Everyone is sleeping because they were up until 2AM picking up NGD and the three ladies at the airport. The Psych and Sacred symposium is going along very well. We are already meeting very nice, complatible, powerful people and moving the Sankirtan of the Holy Names forward.  Today we go to Chosica to the BIG TEMPLE with NGD and everyone.

Our body, Brother Ass, is O.K. (almost 70-years old, so teeth, eyes, memory et al are failing [but intelligence is increrasing {we think}]), except for some more Poison Ivy rash that we got when we attacked the plants in Tennessee before we left.  It could be MUCH, MUCH worse, and we will see it the body can take care of it before we go to more sever efforts (steroids again).

We answered all the letters to three days, but now we should do some Japa, so we have not got to any of the Disciple reports etc.

We are working on this.

We are keeping pretty good balance of work and recreation.
O.K. Japa. Today or tomorrow is the Kapi Dhvaja.

So, so, so much help from all the devotees here.

Hare Krsna

paoho. We made it to Houston. Hari Lila das is looking at this letter.

We answered so much mail. Prepared for the Third Canto, Bhakti vaibhava class tonight. We wish we could do more.

We can't do everything, so we have to set out priorities.
