bhil bhari,
was wandering in the jungle looking for fruits and roots that were easily available.
he found 16,227,338 different varieties of cactus plants that did not want their leaves to be eaten, but budged out fruits, that they wanted to be eaten, and their only request was that the eater defecate the undigestible seeds within their excrement some distance from the father plants.
then the species would spread.
he would bring sacks back to THE VILLAGE and distribute them to worthy folk.
like most people, he did not have any friends.
he thought real friends were hard to find.
then...
one day...
he was walking in the jungle/forest, and dells, of 'saura nunubee' and saw a 'sadhu' traveling with one 'brahmana' and one servant.
'ho, bho, dude', he said!
'KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSNA', said the sadhu [who was tall, aristocratic]!
'huh'. said bhila bihari?
"KRSNA, KRSNA,
KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSNA, HE," Dude said again! Right in his face, hands, heart!
"KRSNA, KRSNA,
KRSNA, KRSNA, KRSSS...
...NA, KRSNA, KRSNA, Pahi mam"'
bh b understood that HE was asking, 'where is KRSNA'???
'where is KRSNA'?
. . .
HE was completely focused on him.
bh bil just stood there.
here was someone who intensely wanted his comradship for all eternity.
in an understanding always increasing, integrating, way.
HE wanted what he could give.
HE wanted what he could discover that he could give.
''Hare Krsna, Hare Rama''.
took HIM to heart.
never let HIM depart.
KRSNA the supreme 'sat'.
KRSNA KRSNA
HARE HARE
the sun is at 2.20pm.
we have 8-more rounds to do.
we have fallen little behind because of travel and joining local festival.
seems o.k.
8-guests in our ashrama.
is like negotiating the different arrangements in the spiritual world.
hari kirtan guides us out of this world and within the spiritual world!
in this world, kali yuga, everything is irregular, best use of a bad bargain. always improvising our tools. join and promote hari kirtan.
Will pack for going to the CHS (Cultivation of Human Spirit) Festival.
Whatsapp to DTC(UT) India Editors:
[7/12, 4:12 PM] HP Swami - Prof HHR: 🤪 4.12pm. just finished detailed review of DTC(ut)INDIA with about five pages of notes.
Have pretty serious chest pains. Of course, eyes failing. Squeezing last bit of air out of this body, but this is a great way to go.
krsna krsna, hare hare!
agtsp!
paoho/bw.
t. brown here. 🐵 🐒🐒 We learned how to insert these emos quickly. Type a ':' then follow it with a key-word like 'monkey', and the emo menu appears etc.
it, the sun, is at 9.51pm.
it was a very, very full day, and productive.
lettuce give it an UG 75% success score.
we are camped in richmond metroplex. innsbrook. in the 'azrAm' (harvard-kyoto translitertion) of subal sakha das and family.
it is great.
we are dying
but
in a pretty satisfying way.
our donkey is going blind, losing hearing, suffocating etc.
our accomodations are nice.
wish we had a platform for a yoga mat rather than a soft. bead, but this is the material world, kali-yuga.
is nice.
we are not attracted to meditate on how nice our camp is.
Good, no?
conscious of the transit lounge just enough to do our work.
'devotional service is not a matter of imaginative ecstacy or sentimental speculation. Rather, it is practical activity in the foreground of spiritual life', NoI (?) 3.
travel from nashville was safe.
we got a cover for the mercedes with subal so that it is in the shade and birds don't defecate on it!
reception by shyam-giri-dhari das et al has been great.
FMS and at least one big program every day.
Diksa in the Temple.
Hari-nama in the Hippy Heaven.
Sunday Festival w/ 40+devotees live and online in Subal's home this morning.
Honoring Prasadam 90% under control by HpS/BW/UG and local cooks efforts.
Writing a Walmart Composition Book [will try to photo] to leave behind of our visit, 'as sannyasi should leave something in writing', WRSPS [we remember SP said]. hopefully it will go to Office Max, get chopped, scanned into jpeg images, spiral bound and on-line distibuted.
are our and hps's stuff worth reading?
well there are 8-billion people in the world who could demand an iskcon guru, so i guess that even you, me and hps have some people to serve.
main thing is that all of our writings just serve to illuminate, improve access to, his divine grace srila a. c. bhaktivedanta swami prabhupada, founder acharya of iskcon and author of the book KRSNA, the SPOG!
Good night.
