Hare Krsna After 27-hours travel: 2-cars, 3-airplane,4-airports, 2-nights, we arrived at ISKCON Delhi! Without Yoga we would be dead or drunk by now. Partha-prana Das met us. Rest 12.46 - 2.46a.m. then Japa, full morning program, meet people, go to Voodoo Phone, but chip and plan. It took five hours for it to activate. Our number is - +91 (India) 958 259 7508 We get charged for incoming calls. Very nice breakfast. Planning programs in Delhi. Met with Dr. K.K. Cakraborty For about 1-1/2 hours. Excellent rapport and did a five minute video message for the Peru symposium. One hour drive back through traffic, hot milk and writing to you. Met and talked with a Catholic priest and oil tanker Captain on the plane trip. Gave them our card. O. K. Guess you Sankirtan is going even better. Lead Mangala arati tomorrow! Hare Krsna. Hare Rama.

Hare Krsna / Hare Rama!

Jaya Radhe!    Jaya Shyama!
Jaya Sri Vrndavana Dhama!

We got behind on your rounds when we had to rest for the headache in Houston and have not been able to catch up. Now we are 11-rounds behind.   Today we make progress.

Yesterday we met with four professors a MTSU for three hours. Then our battery died on our car in the icey cold rain and we had to negotiate getting it charged, but it was successful. Lots of work before we leave for India.

Our eyes, memory, respiration, brains are all failing. Lots of packing to do before we die. We want to take our service with us!

We will Tweet our Japa progress. The travel time from door to door to India will be about 28-hours!

Soldiers of Gauranga!

Hare Krsna In the Nashville airport. Waiting for Tandavika Ji. Answering mail. We do our little, practical service and Krsna does the magic(does not do it) as He pleases. We are sick, sad, depressed, lonely. Ha, Ha. Could be worse. We bought a bag of potatoes chips to offer to our Lord. Now Gayatri and Tandavika should be here. Don't become depressed by depressed, crazy people. Become determined to make them happy, Hare!

The sun has set and it is depressing. It is 6.07PM in the Sannyasi ashrama in Houston. Seems this is the first chance we have had to write in a while!

As we said we finished off the Tour with the "Second Education Congress" in the jungles of Chile, and then for the next six nights we woke up in five differenent beds [and one airplane seat].

Here in Houston the pace was just a thick: Goloka Foundation, Goloka Education, Bhakti-vaibhava.

Finally Brother Ass revolted and we had the second worse headache we have had in our entire life. Last time Doctor said we were one inch from a brain stroke, so we rested the brain.

Even now we are beginning to get one again.... Hari lila Das just came in. NGD just called. We are fat!

Jupiter!

A lot of our work at this age is purifiying the tool.

We have about 6-letters. None marked Urgent.

We called about five people today about travel plans. Our rounds are a little behind. We are working on the Peru conference and answered one nice Blog letter and a the Yahoo mail.

O.K. A quick bath.

11.36a.m. 28 January 2016 Gate 3, waiting lounge, Córdoba, Argentina, airport Hare Krishna, Hare Rama! 11.52am Seat 47, LAN 951, Destination Santiago, Chile. "Women and children are naturally filled with anxiety, and anyone who associates too much with these two groups of people becomes himself full of anxiety", Canakhya Pandita. One of the biggest sufferings while traveling is babies wailing in pain and frustration. Marcus Aurelius advises retreating into one's own private and peaceful consciousness several times during the day. He also advises that we should be assured each day we will meet someone who will unjustly criticize or try to humiliate us. Listen to their criticism and try to profit from it, but if they are attacking you because of some misidentification, then try to understand them and help them. Orange juice was just served. Offer it to Lord Nrsmha. If you remain constant in your meditation on Krishna, you can be a steady signpost for others: Here is Krsna. Go this way! He is anxious to see you. Obtain your unique service. Service, service is our game. Excellent service is eternal fame. Krsna wants you to chant His Holy Name. Even you die, or cannot finish this typed refrain.

Dear Hanumat Swami, Agtsp. pamho. I am a most miserable sinner. I ate p-nuts late at night and read science fiction stories on the internet at "project gutemberg". What should I do?

HpS - ASA - Take hot milk and sugar late at night and read the KRSNA book.

3.54AM - Yesterday we chanted 20-rounds and joined the Innauguration of the Education with ISKCON congress here in Santiago. It was 87% successful. A lot for Kali-yuga. Now we chant Japa and Tweet.
