Here we are again in Miraflores. The Temple is above the restaurant, Govindas, and our Guest room is open on to the Patio. There is a Sankirtan Marathon Feast just fninishing.  It is 6.16PM and seems the sun has set in the Pacific Ocean, 10-blocks away.

We have fierce head ache. Must be careful. Could get a brain stroke. Things are going very well. We have had little time to write. Yesterday was visit to Laksmana to work on M. Jambavati's beautiful biography. Full program in the Temple in the evening.

And always devotees are coming for consultation.

We answered the letters to 1 week 3 days and all the ones label URGENT.

We've packed up. Came from Chosica to Lima, spilled a bottle of bleach in the taxi. Had intense meeting with Professor Dora Bazan and Rupanuga Das. She just recieved a prize as one of the two best professors in all of Peru from the National Assembly of University Presidents.

O.K. run for bath, Gaura-arati, class, Japa, rest, 5.00AM on the road to Argentina!!!

AGTSP     paoho.

Here we are in Miraflores, Lima, Peru. Oooof. Fasting 'till noon for Ekadasi. Little stomach-ache and nausaea, but feel the benefit for the body and consciousness.

Everyday is packed with university and temple and individual consulting programs. Internet is pretty good. Yesterday, Abhirama Th. Das arranged discussion and lunch with five BIG, BIG professors.

Our old and recent friends. Very nice progress. Really fixing a strong program when we return on "SCIENCE, PSYCHE AND SPIRITUALITY: The Encounter of Carl Jung and the Mystical Yoga of India".

Of course, our Bhakti-vaibhava essays still need some work. We havn't posted our disciple lists recently. Mail is back to 1 week and 2 days, and we have about twenty annual reports to answer.

Are people receiving our answers????

Today we had full morning program in the Preaching Center. About 50-people for class and then on line class now e-mail, bath, pack drive to Chosica with lunch in Candra-mukhi Devi Dasi's home.

Hare Krsna!!!

Here we are in Miraflores, Lima, Peru. It was a long, long, long hard trip but after 23 hours of work and travel we arrived in Peru and took a litte rest. At 4AM we were up and Mangala arati, Japa, class, individual meeting, nap, meet with Laksmana Das, Nimsar meeting, Japa, Gaura-gadadhara  Devi Dasi meeting, evening program, got modem working, some mango and papaya, new smart phone requieres a soft key to unlock it, so we can't use it in Peru etc.

Interesting.

The only "tool" that works in Kali-yuga is the Maha-mantra. It is so merciful that it will direct us how to use our situationn for serving Krsna.

O.K. Tired. Can't answer mail.

Take rest until Japa Joe.

Hare Krsna / Hare Rama!

Read the KRSNA book.
