Letters to the editor

           Hare Krsna.  paoho. We are just dust near the feet of Srila Prabhupada.  Externally we are sitting in our cave in Srinivasa Prabhu's house in Virgnia. We came here yesterday and had their regular Nama-hatta program with about 45-devotees. Was rather intense with the questions.

       Our net book would not sync with Srinivasa's router so we could not join Japa Joe this morning.   Then we couldn't use WebEx for our curriculum development with Srinivasa Das, our Study Partner from Boise, and Laksmanagraja Das.

       So we used Nandulal's cell phone with CCD and Mother Subhra's USA account (which is free on Sunday) and Tandavika's international Reliance account to have VERY nice SB 3.21 discussion with Laksmana.  So, much deep insight on current social and psychological problems in the Yatra from just discussing the Purports.

     Now Srinivasa from, here, Virginia, has given us a Sprint USB modem an we're using it to connect.   O.K.   Letters to the Editor and we're off a 11AM for the two hour drive to Yogaville!

                            Oink!                      Oink!

                                  Whoop!  Whoop!

                              Whoop!   Whoop!            AGTSP   paoho.  It's 11.17PM.  Brother Ass is starting to get a dangerous head ache.  Haw!      Haw!     Haaaw!              We just answered all the letters to like five daze ago.  Was very nice, but takes Time.
      We are pretty much on schedule with all out work.      It seems that mostly everything we are doing is correct.  We don't have to make any BIG changes in life, just become more intense to do what we are doing more precisely correct; Eating, sleeping, mating and fearing...       O.K.  We take rest now.  Get up at 1.15AM.   We had a nap today, So, total number of hours of rest is O.K.
     Tommorrow we go to Virginia for the weekend.  (Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin" Queen, never got married etc, So place was called Virginia after her!)   We travel light and try to keep the focus.  People should establish a firm connection with Srila Prabhupada through his Kirtan and his Books (and Prasadam)...

  ............... Good night!

    7.45AM   -   Radha Natabara Ashrama, Murfreesboro, Tennessee

One Poem We Wrote this Morning for Trash-12K:

GOPAL DARSAN
Fortunate necklace made of gold,
     Fortunate flute that His fingers hold,
Fortunate flute that His two lips kiss,
     Arrogant souls opportunity miss.

 Banging on his banjo,
    Strumming his guitar,
The musical arranger,
     Sees Krsna near and far.

 “Hare Krsna” quakes his brain,
    Tears of pain fall like rain.
Many different melodys,
     The very same refrain.

 Merging in transcendence,
    Every ache and strain.     Gopal, Govinda, Rama,
Sri Madhusudana.   Our days are numbered.
       Some have bigger numbers.

Some have small.  You’re very fortunate to get a
   “Ready” call.  “Time to go!”    Now it’s Mangala
Arati. One last time we roar.
    Wake up the bears and buffalos,
Let no one lose and snore.

 NINE MORE MINUTES
What would you write?
   What would you say?
If you only had nine minutes,
   If you had to leave today?

 1. We do not die Intestate,
Someone has our Will,
   And Final Testament,
And then we’re on our way.

 2. “Poor fellow!  He left so little.”

        Our Bequest to Our Disicple: Get up early and get your rounds done!

 Then all the rest the day is fun.
        With Gopal.  [Of course, getting up early and chanting is also fun if you know the Way.]    [[ The Way is What Srila Prabhupada Say: ]]

 “Anyone who chants the Pancha-tattva Maha-mantra and follows it with the Hare Krsna/Rama Maha-mantra has achieved the perfection of life. However, if you want to preach you should probably read my books” – Srila Prabhupada

       So, at any moment you can follow this formula and achieve perfection, know exactly how to make further progress to complete confection.

          Ummm!   Hare Krsna,           Ummm!           Hare Krsna.       Jaya Sita-Rama.

 
3. Yet, demons come during the day to disturb the play?
             Hey, for Krsna they are not disturbances,
Unknowingly they increase the play, in an unpredictable, interesting
             Way.        "HaRe!   Hurray!"     You chant and
See how to help Gopal sends each demon on his way.

4. What is the biggest demon?
We don’t know for sure, but boredom is a really great one,
            Maybe the biggest fear.  Fear of no service,
For Krsna that He’ll really find quite dear,
            [By the mercy of Guru and Gopis]

"Hurray Krishna!   Hurray Rama!", that big, big demon also slay!

O.K.  That’s all.   No more to say.
            Nine minutes up.  Let’s be on our Way.   >>--->      Humility.

      Oink!     Oinnk!     Heeeeeeee  Hawwww!

AGTSP    paoho.   We just finished Japa Joe Forum.   Sometimes we Chat a little too much.   Chat can become Chant without the "n" (Names!), yet if we just chant mechanically without Chating about the Japa, Krsna, Radharani, then that is also not good.

    Mix, Kirtan, Japa, Books, Puja, Karma-yoga    to     improve your Japa!

                  O.K.   Let's answer a few letters before push Brother Ass in the shower.

Buck White/Brown Tom.....

          {We're in Murfreesboro still....    Radha Natabara Ashrama}    !

     AGTSP       paoho       It's 7.11PM.      Usually we go for our regular walk at 7.15PM.     Nitai-gaurasundara Prabhu has a 2.1 mile route he follows.   It is AMAZING. We walk all that distance and we always come back within 43-46 minutes.  Amamzing, doesn't vary by 3-minutes!

Last week we did a strong writing project every day. We were adjusting our new office space. Today Saturday we have taken it a bit lighter and are doing simple but important follow up on NIOS office and office systems, Calendar for Texas and Peru.

O.K.  (Om Kesavaya Namah).  We write letters until our Doctor calls us to walk!   He is very regulated.

     HpS - ASA!

           AGTSP
          (Paoho)

Today, Thursday, we taked with Dr. Bandhyopadya in India about his felicitations volume and calendar for India and Australia.          We wrote an intense letter to the new professor of comparative religions at MTSU inviting her to come to our Symposium 8th September and meet all our NIOS friends.      We finished our paper for the Center for Spirituality and Health, Houston   ...  etc.    Our eyeballs can't take too much computer time anymore.          Sri Krsna Sankirtana Ki Jai!          Heart is 90% regular.   Hot at the office.    Lots of spiders.   Will get to Blog letters next!
