We are in Radhakund and the 🌞 is at 7.30pm.

Hare Krsna.

Looked 😳 at the letters in the Blog but to weak to answer except for translation of the 'Kapi Dhvaja' by their excellencies Patraka and his esteemed sister.

More than five kinds of suffering now but it is all nectar, personal guidance from the Gopis.

Let us start our Tirobhava celebration for Guru Maharaj right now!

Watch for Tweets.

Should be a heavy tax for plastic in India.

The Russians should become humble and others should share their food and shelter with them.

All governors should have Hare Krsnas on the Councils.

Stomach ache.

Eyes tired.

Sun at. 8.43PM

Japa. Kapi Dhvaja published after one hour or struggle.

FMP.

Tunga vidya D. D. et al.

5.30AM start walk to BhV Ashrama (TKG). Expecting knees to collapse after 30-minutes.

Thinking our knee aches indicate collapse soon.

Walking like young ass.

1-3/4 hours to Ashrama and Govardhana puja with Vaisesika et al.

Many powerful, old Godbrothers there.

Svayam Bhagavan Swami gave class for 2-hours.

We are chanting more and more through everything.

We discovered that we could chant on the roof.

It is like flying in the sky.

Ananda-vardana Das, Guru-govinda Devi Dasi, Iskcon Chile, Ki Jai.

Paoho & bw.

Here we are all still 8.5-minutes from Radha Kunda!!! The sun is at 8.01PM here. Sunset was at 5.45PM.

It is hot here, but with the fan it is O.K.

• Today is anniversary of Lokanatha Swami's initiation;
• Anniversary of the first Kartika festival by Srila Prabhupada;
• Bahula, the honest cow, festival;
• Advent of Radha-kunda festival.

We left for the big program organized by, for, Lokannatha Swami at 8.30am and got back about 12.30pm! Four hours! Over 2,000 people in the pandal-tent.

Brahmanas, mantras, decorations, Swamis, deities, bull carts, Govardhana hill!

90% in Hindi.

A lot of work, but very nutritious.

Now we have no invitations until Govardhana Puja.

Every day we meet devotees at Radha Kunda who know us from 20-years ago etc.

-[:-]Monkeys~~~

Every blade of grass transcendental.

Becoming detached from "good food". Beginning to swim in the river of Radha Krsna lila.

Your association is so important to us.

ISKCON Chile.

Hare Krsna

Hare Krsna

KRSNA K R S N A ... HARE HARE!!

We try to broadcast stuff, but our life here is so much less complicated. We don't plan class programs. A lot of it is just walking to Radha Kunda.

What did you do today?

I walked to Radha-Kunda!

-0-0-0-

We want to try to join "The Fiftys Club" - Fifty rounds a day. Because our throat is irritated, inflamed a lot, we must chant slower than before.

(Good practice for death).

... We will look at the Blog and Whatsapp.

Hari Bolo!

Our eye balls are failing.

Time to stop typing.

We spent 1-hour trying to post the www.jayarama.us/kd/guru-tattva.txt updated in the web page. We finally got something.

Yesterday big BIG B I G festival to innauguate the Govardhana Retreat Center. It looks like a five building apartment complex and giant assembly hall etc.

Miracle!

Blood of Bhurijana Das and Saccinanadana Swami et al.

Then today we could go to Radha Kunda after 4-days of rain.

It is so nice.

So many kirtan groups going around.

Temples.

Old hertage.

Getting your feet crushed under motor cycles.

Hare Krsna.

Advice is don't drink milk. Terrible epidemic attacking the cows.

O.K.

Good night.

AgtSP!

See you tomorrow.

Dear Guru Maharaja.

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to you!

We hope you have settled down in your ashram in Radhakunda and all you travels were successful. We saw some pictures of your welcoming in the Delhi temple and they were fantastic.

We will be traveling to India in November and will be there till end of February. Divya is leaving on 9-Nov and I am planning to arrive closer to thanksgiving. Her health is fine. She has been engaged in lots of services, especially dressing our deities here and she is getting good at it by your mercy.

There are lots of things happening in India during our visit this time. It has been 3 years since we went back. Divya’s sister in law is expecting and her due date is around 20-Nov. This would be the first child in Divya’s side. On 1-Jan, we are celebrating a function for my father’s 70th birthday called Bhimaratha Shanthi. On 18-Jan is our visa appointment and on 27-Jan, Srirama is getting married. It is taking a few weeks for the passports to come back from the consulate. So we will return at the end of February once we get our passports back.

ASA - You are going to India in November but you are getting your Visas in February? Do you mean that you will leave India with your Indian passports and then get your USA work Visas renewed from the Indian consulate after you get there and then be able to come back to USA on a work Visa?

One mataji here has been behind me to be her “mentor/siksha guru”. I don’t know how to deal with it Guru Maharaja because she is not just asking her questions on just Shastric understanding but also on people and situations here. I have told her many times that I don’t feel comfortable nor qualified doing it but she is relentless. Because since I am running the educational initiatives here and give many classes, many ppl think of me for more than who I am. I am honest with them about my position and yet they keep looking at me at a higher position . How should I deal with the situation Gurudeva?

Tom Brown - Drink Coca Cola during the Sunday Feast. Ha! Ha! Ha! ASA - This is a problem as old as the moon. People trying to push you into artificial positions. An Uttama adhikari reacts to it effectively in a spontaneous manner. Doesn't have to work on it. A Madhyama adhikari becomes expert at avoiding the materialistic tendency of people to make artificial Gurus so they can become "intimate associates" of a GREAT guru.

Work on it. It is a problem for everyone. It is like learning to be a husband. Takes time.

We are planning to book our tickets to Vrindavan closer to your Vyasapuja and wanted to confirm the dates so that we can book the tickets and accommodation soon.

ASA - Our Vyasapuja, effort to glorify the Parampara from Krsna to you, to your disciples, is on the Appearance day of Locan Das Thakura. I think that is 24th December. We can plan various events around that time.

We don't even want to thnk about it unless Srila Prabhupada is clearly illuminated as accepted by any of our disciples as their principle Uttama adhikari guru.

Please bless us that we may gain entrance into Vraja to meet you.

Your servant

Srinatha Krsna dasa

HpS - Thank you on behalf of everyone for nice letter.

It is 8.20PM.

Got up at 1.15AM. Started DTC and Japa.

Takes us about 10-minutes or even more for each round now. Our voice is weak.

Went for the Diksa ceremony for four disciple. Read about it in the Kapi Dhvaja.

We will try to post it after we send then letter.

That was from 8Am to 1PM.

Had to do it in the Goshala and cow urinated on our Yajnashal!

Back. Ate a little too much Banana bread. Learning.

Nap.

Sorting correspondences.

Gaura arati with Vipin Bihari Das and Tungavidya Devi Dasi and another Mataji whom we are ashamed we can't remember her names (!!).

Now this letter.

Try to post Kapi Dhvaja

and our eyes are getting strained.

Hare Krsna!
