Letters to the editor

A G T S P !
Paoh ..o'......   Here we are in NGD Temple room above the garage. It is very nice. Radha Natabara are about four feet tall. We are a little mareado, naseaus, maybe because the time changed by one hour last night, we have gone from near freezing to very warm, to nearr freezing!

Ha! Ha!    Hare!  What do you expect. Brother Ass is only human.
Thank you for the nice letters. Arjuna asks what is knoweable, in the BG, and Krsna answers by describing the Supersoul. Everything else is changing. If we are doing something, Sankirtan, and it is not in a happy relation with the Supersoul then we will feel like it is building castles in the air.

Hari Bolo! Chant Hare Krsna and stay in touch with the Chariot Driver, no?!!!
O.K. 6.30PM. Time to go downstairs and see what is happening.
Talked with about 7-devotees about Sankirtan today on the telephone. Trying to contact Etasa about Chicago program.

We are happy when we can Chant Hare Krsna and Dance with Krsna!

AGTSP paoho & bw...
We are more mad than all of our readers except one.

It is 3.03PM in the afternoon, Friday the 31st of Ocrtober (Different than October).

We look out our window and it is just ten meters to Medical Center Parkway. Cars are going left and right, and right and left on four lanes. Beyond that is the parking plaza in the back of a lower middle income shopping mall that used to be a big place. The Sushi bar opens for lunch and dinner and the Lobster shop has been closed for three weeks.

It is 43 degrees Fahrenheit (9 degress Centigrade) and the dark, dark, rainey sky stands above like a demon. The wind is snapping and biting like an angry dog on his leash and the bright colored leaves of Autumn are being torn from the tree our yard by its force.

Nice people walk by holding their coats and the Karmis think of Friday night, steak and Red Johnny!

Hare Krsna!

We offered Lord Nrsmha-deva Oat-meal and Split green peas with carrots and celery for lunch; and a pot of milk blended with ripe bananas and walnuts and little mango-drink.

He seems to have survived it.

Brother Ass's feet and legs are about 35-55% swollen. We are working to keep him fit and trim to the very end.

We will go to Nitai-gaurasundara Das home at 7PM and there is regular program there. We all carry the load for the music and by that advance in our skills.
 

We have all the mail answered up to 4-days ago!
We took care of our India Visa!
We met Gary at the Boro Book Warehouse and maybe able to do programs there once a month to meet with all the Dudes that take books from our roadside basket in the future.
So, there are many nice programs. We seem to prioritize well, but now it's time to enjoy life or we will sure have a brain stroke and our donkey in a hole in the ground will tomorrow dwell.

~~~Jung. Santiago. Peru. Tarapota. Maimi. Dr. Samaresh, Rama-giridhari. Dandava. Jayanta (the leaves are bright oranges and go by in real waves >>>>>>!), formerly Francisco, Nanda Baba of BsAs, Japa-prati-jalpa, Radha dasi in England; Yadu Swami; Paramadvaiti Swami; Gorilla King Hanuman; ......

Hari Bolo and we will realize the ecstatic role Nitai-Gauranga have for us!

4.32PM

Hare Krsna. AGTSP. paoho & Bw.   We are rather tired! Today is Srila Prabhupada's 'tiro bhava mahotsava', Anniversary of his Disappearance. Oooof.

We finished, bought ink, scanned the Tpp -Cb/12 and 13. They are O.K. We feel we are like someone who is being asked by the Technicians, "Please say something into the mike". We started off with Composition books, but those were impossible to photo-copy. Then we went to 8-1/2 - 11 with spiral binding and international shipping. That was like $15/each to print and mail. It was very much worth it.

Now we are scanning them and writing them on colored paper and using a template. Again, Oooof!

Lots of technical work, but now this seems stable.

We can write them and archive them and then someone can put them into a Power Point show if they want to. We did it for this one. We had to Scan them, rotate them, crop them, size them, stick them and compress them.
It's in the Archives, under tpp-cb, then cb-13.

What do you think?

Also, we tried to get to the Jung Journals on-line today and they want like $35 to download one article. It is not cheap being crazy. We got some access, and so we are going forward. Our feet are pretty swollen. Got a headache. Went for a long bike ride to go shopping. Heard Puskara Das' class from Hawaii. Sitting with you!
4.42PM. Talked with Lakmana Das in Peru for 1-hour.

Will go to NGD's home at about 6.30PM.

Best to put the feet in the air now and rest, no?
With all these other tasks reduced we can focus on the content of the Tpp-Cb's now.

AGTSP!   Paoho....   We have answered all but 18-letters. Some a rather old, but we have a better rhythm now. The Semester Review power point show and the Friday, Tomorrow, Hawaii Power point shows, and class preparations required a lot of work.
We have headache.
Krsna keeps arranging for us to meet people.

Today we called Bh. Richard and Ananta-rupa Das in Boise, the Director of Religions for Peace, Gayatrai Das a very, very old preacher and devotee here, with big business work, etc.

Now it is sunset. It feels like it is taking our life out of our body.

Got a headache from computer work so no more letters today, no?

-=-=-=-=-=-====== >

Cars rush by just in front of our window, let's count: 25-in one minute.

We finished Tpp-Cb/11 today. Then we scanned it for the first time. It was not too hard and the size of the files is good. They don't look as nice as when printed, but we can start to adjust how we produce them with this soft-copy publication in mind.

O.K. Quick bath and off to NgD's house for out evening walk. Download Journey to the West Episode 12 (?), Damodara astaka, discuss NIOS work, lectures on the internet that he is seeing, and read from Mukunda Maharaja's recollections!

Oh, Tamohara Prabhu wrote back thanking us for our report but said that he had no time for more detailed answer because the GBC meetings in Tirupati were starting.

Thank you!!!

AGTSP/ Paoho.   We have a headache, eye ache, posterior sore from sitting. <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" /> We are a wreck!

Our body is a wreck! O.K. Enough. We have been working and typing since 1.15 AM. Now it's 3.54PM. Time to do some Karma-yoga!!

AGTSP

paoho

We have a letter from Dandava Das from Madrid about initiations that would not go. We will try again. We started reading and respoinding to the intense dialog in the Latin American Regional GBC Body about Kesava Swami's in volvement with ISKCON. There are dozens of contributions!

It takes so much of our time, but if we are on the commission then we should do it.

Priorities.

We can't answer letters here! We didn't see any urgent.

We talked with some very nice devotees about their history of Vaisnavism in the West work. In general we worked pretty hard all day. We think we should do more, but we have to consider more and more that we are pretty degraded product of degraded Western culture.

O.K. Lets go to NGD home. 7.18 PM. Sunset one hour ago. Cold and dark outside with rain and some warning of possible tornadoes.

Jaya! Back to Godhead.

19 rounds done.!
