             AGTSP.    paoho.   Here we are in New Vraja Mandala, farm/retreat community in Spain.   Every day we have 5.45-8.45PM  Bhakti-sastri teaching for Yadunandan Swami's students.  Takes about 1-1/2 hours to prepare.   Now it is 2.25PM.   We have 23/32 rounds done and have to chant 5 more before we can touch our lunch prasadam (service starts at 2.30PM)...   Today we had Japa Joe from 1.30-3.30AM then Mangala arati, more japa, University writing, cup of nuts and raisins, nap....   Fruit and milk meet with Badra and Sunnanda, Richard and his family and then Sri Hari and yahoo mail and blog up to date until 4 days ago.             Jaya!                After lunch we have to prepare for BhSastri.   After it all we tend to fall into Maya for some time looking at some kind of meaningless Kug Fu movie some time, like Fist of  Iron, or Dogs of Denver or something.  The more meangingless the better.  Seems we are doing too much intellectual work. Hare Krsna.  We will advance.  Krsna book replacing Fists of Fudge!!.

Thank.  AGTSP!!!!!  Tom Brown...

Here we are in the Farm in Brihuega.  The sun in shinning. Spriing is coming and
          The Kauravas are going to die.
We

got

free-will,

MooChacho!

           Just caught up on the letters.  Eyes O.K.  Bhakti-vaibhava under control!!!    Local Seminar on BG under control!         (Ja Ja Ja -  prakrteh kriyamanani..).  Today BG Chapter Four.               By just seeing the opportunities that Krsna gives us to deal with details as we focus on getting one big project done we seem to be doing well. Just gotta go from Karma yoga to Bhakti yoga!!!

     AGTSP.....   A G T S P!!!!!                  ---paoho----   Oink!   Oink!           Whoop!   Whoop!    How are you?          We are O.K.          We are in New Vraja Mandala, ISKCON mountain village. It is 9.46PM.  Still some light in the sky.  We just finished our first Bhakti-sastrai course, BG 3.1-21.  It will go every night from 5.45 to 9PM with 30-minutes for evening Arati.  It was O.K.    It is hard teaching someone else, another guru's, classes, because every brahmana has his own way of teaching.

Is a very old castle, manor-house, here. Fresh air. Madrid is nice, the King's gardens, but here their is less pressure. Already our fever seems better.

We have several projects to complete, but a lot of things we are just putting aside because we have not developed working relations with the necessary people to do them.

O.K.  (Om Kesavaya-namah!)    Will read the Krsna book and then sleep and then get up at 1.30AM for Japa Joe!  (Foto attached)  Thank you!

((((((((((((((((((paoho ((((((((<<<                    Here we are 3.34AM in Mad Mad Drid, Spain!    We could not poast the monkey toast   [last night]   because we had to call Kolkata post!    Now we're here and have your ear so tell you all that's near and dear.....   Hare!    Hare!        Hare...    Give up this morbid movie show and at the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada you please go. Nimbecile our brains arrest and make us think we can never be the best and dearest boy at Krsna's feet, but that's not true, Goloka's  sweet.

            ...  We have to kill this demon heart and then our life with our dearmost friend restart.            There is no more amiable retreat than  a humble servant at Guru-Krsna's feet [in the dust]

                         . . . 

                                      . . .

                 . . .

         Hare Krsna!!                  Hare Krsna....     Forget the big and good and small... There Maha     -      MAHA    -     M  A  H  A      Mantra   is your all...            ...   Hare Hare / Hare Krsna, Hare ...
                     Be Bold!   Die this breath!                      Krsna's shakti's all that's left....

             A  G  T  S  P !         (((paoho)))  &  BW.             We are much better. Rested and recovered a little bit.   The internet connection would not work for Japa Joe this morning but we got 16-rounds done before Mangala arati.    Rodrigo from Chile, made a hole in the 150 year old wall and we have cable now.

We are like limiting it to two classes a day and three challenging emotional dialogs each day.   Ha!    Ha!        Ha!                  I guess World War Two was a "challenging emotional dialog".    Die for your country!            Ooooof!                Strange.            Look for areas of agreement about Krsna rather than primarily disagreement.

O.K.  (Ommmm  Krsnaya-namah)                 8.50PM.       Rest the head.  Go to bed.   Read about "Krsna Enters Mathura".   We have to train people how to have the right attitude. Once you have that the thoughts and acts and possessions will follow.
