A G T S P! (((paoho))) Here we are still in Iskcon Kolkatta. Albert Road. The Temple is beautiful. The devotees seem ideal. Kokatta seems seven times better than it was last year even. Curious. Mercy of God?
Today we had very auspicious meeting with Dr. Bandyopadhyay at the Temple and did a lot, lot of work on NIOS projects. Our health is good except that our eyes are strained from anything. If we exercise them properly they may improve. We did a little writing for Trash 12,000 and a little Calendar and Strategy meeting with the Professor. Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.
Birsimgha Swami is here. Our old friend. Preaching in China. Maybe there is auspiciosness for all the world coming from Srila Prabhupada's Sankirtana of the Holy Names.

32-rounds. Friday is Varaha dvadasi! CHant, memorize Dasa-avatar verse... "vasati dasana sikhare..." read relevant verses in SB 1.3 and 2.7. Hare Bolo, Prabhus!!!
A G T S P !
(((paoho)))
After a long hard struggle we made it to Kolkatta, ISKCON. Harsh got the Tata Photon running so we may have some e-mail. Let's see. We met with Temple organizers and Professor Bandyopadhyay and it seems that we will have a full week of work this week. Squeak! Squeak!
Got 24-rounds done and hope to be on Japa Joe tomorrow at 1.30AM Kolkatta time. We're s'posed to give class tomorrow at 8.30AM in the Temple room.
O.K. We respond to the Blog posts for last week and then we'll try to get more and more up to date. Harer nama, Harer nama... Its the only way. Krsna will give us intelligence. We have so much Sankirtan here. Only possible if your help us do it! Thank you.

P.S. We bought tickets for Houston for ~11-25 June and 25 June - 3 July for Denver. We're waiting for news from the Boise Temple Board about visiting there for Rathayatra July Fourth.
We also sent a letter to Miguel and Abhi about participating in their Congress in August.
Generally we are turing our pushing interior. If scholars see some use for us then we are glad to work, and we will focus more on being of more worth. The more we chant sincerely the more we are purified, eternally, and useful to the devotees of Krsna.

6.55AM Brussels. We hve to be out the door in 5 minutes. No recharge so battery on 40%! Thus no Japa Joe. Great preaching center. Great Sunday Feast! Great spiritual advancement. We don't do any administration of work any more, just advice and poetry and a few articles. Monkey is composing his final work! >>>===> India!
AGTSP paoho. Brother Ass is about to collapse. 10.57PM, but on schedule. Letters answered up to one week ago. Travel tickets purchased up to 3 of July. Gave two classes and joined Boise, Istagosthi today. Very nice. Honored Prasadam pretty good. O.K. Call CCD in Modesto and take a nap until Japa Joe! Tomorrow we go to Brussels!

"Sixteen rounds is nothing. In Vrndavana there are many devotees, they chant 120 rounds. Like that. So sixteen rounds is the minimum. Because I know in the Western countries it is difficult job to finish sixty-four rounds or 120 rounds, like that. Minimum sixteen rounds. That must be finished." - http://prabhupadavani.org/main/Nectar_of_devotion/NOD01.html
AGTSP!!! (((paoho))) Oink! Oink! WHoop! Whoop! Quack! QUack.
Another done day in Radhdesa! It's 10.50PM now. We still haven't shaken this Jet Lag. It's been like this before. We get EXHAUSTED after lunch. Have nap and then can't sleep at night. Still we try.
We gave class on SB1.10.1-33 today in the morning, then our NOD2 seminar with four devotees for three hours. Then 2-hours with all the students and teachers for a Sanga. It was quite informative what is happening.
We are packing up for India, Manipur, Australia. We have regular phone calls and letter. Also trying to contact NGD about USA. There are so many people to work with that it is confusing, like trying to dance on the heads of many peacocks! Ha! Ha! Yet, Krsna is the greatest dancer, so seems that a nice plan for the future will develop.
O.K. Try to rest a little and then Call Tennessee at 1AM and the Japa!!!! The best way to die.
We're caught up with the Blog mail to 6 days ago!!
