Here we are in Houston, Nila-madhava Dhama.   Yes, the four daze in Mexico were ecstatic,    i*n*t*e*n*s*e. We arrived at the Temple after a long hard journey and gave the Sunday feast lecture and talked with several devotees and guests.

We took rest about 9.30AM and when our alarm went off we were half conscious and a voice from space said, "Are you sure you want to push your body this hard (get up for Japa Joe)?", and we, half-conscious, said, "No", and went back to sleep until 3.30AM.

Seems it was for the best.

Now it is 9.49AM. We have 18-rounds done. Full morning program in the Temple. SB is starting the chapter of Hiranyakasipu Plans to Become Immortal. Govind is here from Monterrey. She can stay until Thursday. The education meetings start tomorrow. We are starting the work to transfer the money for M. Jambavati DD's dental surgery.

We have essays to catch up for BhVai.

Taking a moment with you to look at everything, things seem to be under pretty good control. Now we will relax a little, do light work and finish reading all the translations for this week's BhVai chapter, M. Prthu Meets the Four Kumaras.

Hare Krsna / Hare Rama!

     A G T S P !   (((paoho))).                Well....  here we are in the Sannyasi Hilton in Nila-Madhava Dhama in Houston. The accomodations are so opulent, but also have a practical aspect. Up for Japa Joes, little nap, then to the airport at 8.30AM. By mistake checked in our Japa beads...                  Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!   So we had to chant our our fingers and note down our ronds on a piece of paper. Was slow but we were chanting chanting, cchaninting.      Flight was at 2PM so we had from 9.00AM to 2PM in the Nashville airport then 2-hour flight then one hour to get to the Temple thenn... and now we are writing to you.

The swelling in our foot is less??!   Maybe Laksmana's health in improving?

.....   Nitai-gaurasundara Das just called. He is such a nice person. He is really a doctor. He cares about the health and well-being of several sannyasis. Its nice after a trip like this for someone you know just to call and see that everything is O.K. Maybe it is Krsna who inspires these things. Maybe He is very sad that we are not in the little village of Nanda in the big big forest of Vrndavana with Him?

Now is 6.41PM.

We showed the Mini-mala kits to Tiger, the son of devotees who picked us up. He took one. 

WE MISSED THE LIMA CLASS AT 10AM today. We feel so bad. We could have called on the telefone from the airport but we forgot in all the rush of checking in!!  And Mother Yugala nor LAD nor Jagat didn't call us either...   HmmmF.  It is because of the sincere devotion of those three, Candra mukhi and others that this BhVai is going on in Peru.

O.K. Let's go to the Arati and see what books are there to read.

When we got our beads back it was such a relief!!!!

OINK!   Govinda!   Gracias as Srila Prabhupada!!!!!   Gracias!
             How are you all!              We are surviving and advancing at the root and the toot of the floot!
             We Finished, Japa Joe and still have many rounds to go (to 35/day), but Letters to the Editor seemed to fit in.

        Now we must do Sri Sri Nara-simha Deva's Puja.  He lives in our Bead Bag with out Japa Beads but then  -E-x-p-a-n-d-s-  Himself to sit o\n the Desk.

             Letters answered to 5-days ago. That is tranquil standard for our mind. Better is three days. One or two days is too fast.

              We investigated "Social Networks", Face Buk, Google, Twitter, for Sankirtan yesterday. Lacking a lot. This Blog has many advantages. What you think? Other better? We are just supposed to focus on writing, writing environment.
 

OINK!    Oink!    HOnk! HOnkkk!  HOnk!..

<var>A G T S P !   (paoho)))       Here we are in ASA-Murfreesboro Ashrama. 5.12AM.</var>

<var>HOw are you?     Hari Hari Har <img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/36.gif" title="" />   <img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/37.gif" title="" /><img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/38.gif" title="" /> <img alt="" src="http://hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/39.gif" title="" /></var>

           Hari!
                           Hari!               hARI   BOlo.. !        The Friday program here is devastating.  It starts too late. Then we feel obligated to give at least a 30-minute Gita class, at least, then we had quick $$$ and other meetings, then get back to Ashrama, recover from all the generous Sankirtan, then take rest (about 11.47...), then so exhausted we don't even hear our alarm m  m    m          m m mm !        <{{(OINK!)}}<<<<          Yet, here we are, and you can't beat associating with devotees, but we have to learn to advance to a higher platform: Not just chant, but chant constantly, with clear pronunciation, with depth, with meaning!
[Meaning comes from books.]     Take a  deep, deep look, into the perfect, perfect, KRSNA Book!
                 
</var>

<var>O>K>    Center of our life is Prabhupada   [ ....o  o.... ]   his lotus feet and toes.</var>
If nature gives us hurricanes,
Or front-yard roses grows.     Our monkey sits there chanting. That's all that he e'er knows.   See you in a bit.      Puja now for Nrsmha in this hour fits >>>----->
