We just spent 1-1/2 hour reviewing and answering most salient e-mails, whatsapps, and Blog posts. Ooof. Headache coming.


We are doing pretty well.


This New Biharavan visit is like a whirlwind. Battle of Kuruksetra. Rasa lila dance. About 20-super-devotees visiting from all parts of Pacific Coast.

Many international phone conversations with people like Pope, Putin, Alfred E. Neuman et al.


Daily Temple classes.


Prasadam about 60% under control and improving.


This is a lot of stress on our health, but staying in Nashville would be worse.


Hare Krsna!


This is a good way to die.


O.K. Chant some more Japa, bathe, wash clothes, go on Sankirtan to the park with 150,000 devotees.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama,

Jaya Radha, Jaya Shyama,

Jaya Sri Vrndavana Dhama.


Little Lord Piggy, and Little Lord Monkey, here!!


We are sitting in one of the studio apartments next to the Tulsi garden in New Biharavan, ISKCON Boise.

Our body is O.K. but death is just past a few bends in the path, if we are lucky to not meet it today.


It was a long hard trip from Nashville to Boise. The air plane crashed three times and there was no oxygen.

It was hot.

Stuffy.

No one wanted to talk about Krsna.

but ... that was good also because we had rounds to catch up (bad Monkey! bad Monkey!).


Two people in the terminals, like security guards nod to us with great respect. One said, something about Allah.


Nice to dress in Devotional Clothes? Srila Prabhupada's suggested formal dress...


Krsna West, Hanuman with Sita-Rama in his chest.


About a million devotees here from all over the earth. After the airport, very little Co-Vid care. Fresh air in the temple, but no masks.

We keep distance and accept we may get some reaction to CoVid Delta, but it is all village members.


Adjusting, packing, ant and alligator wacking. We are about 75% moved in.


A lot of mail to now make our brains invested.

We are really on the road now looking for where sItA is sequestered.


Meeting with Shonu Shamdasani was 150% perfect. With Radhika and by the team effort of all of us, we were able to plan for a second meeting with some very principle members from NIOS and Philemon, to enter into some dialog for designing a bridge between Jung and Bhakti Siddhanta Sarasvati.

OK going to Arati.

SANKIRTAN RESULTS FOR HpS/TB/BW

Witch - 7

HpS et al - 3


4-regs but behind on some rounds.

Joined the ISV, Bh.Vai. workshop. Heard how Indra killed Vrtasura, but was actually the loser.

No one to walk with so walked along the river alone.

. . . it was spoooky. only a two guys and they were really big black dudes with tattoos. We tried to look beyond the effulgence of their bodies and minds and offer our service to their mental attitude and desires.


Took a long time to write a response to Mother Guru-govinda Dasi's super-letter. Because it is Kali-yuga is there greater opportunity for girls to become heroes that guys? Not like guys, but in the pursuit of their own Dharma.

One of the 3-1/2 most confidential servants of The Lord.


Then some other letters and the Radha Natabara Evening Program. We are reading the KRSNA book for five minutes during the program: Kamsa, Public Enemy Number One, has had insomnia and hallucinations. Is he our long lasting material attitude that is in fear of death now that Krsna and Balarama have appeared through the KRSNA book?


Good night. Good night. We gradually get a lot of little things done eg. Improving our Altar, regular laundry, getting letters of for book distribution.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama,


Nice letters from devotees.


We are sorry we are not stronger.


We joined the Hawaii class today as audience and afterwards the discussion went for 20-minutes. Then we had personal phone call with Madana mohana Das about it etc. for one hours, the Ramananada Das, President, for 1/2-hour.

Spent fair amount of time making a PPTX for tomorrow night and quite talk with RRD and Art Das about NIOS.

Walking with Dr. Desai and Vijaya. NgD and family left for Chicago to see his children and grandchildren.

Drought, plague, civil violence, old age continue, but that is completely normal.

It is like annual growth and by product and death of corn plants.

Krsna kindly maintains this hospital.

Hare Krsna!!

Hare Rama!!

Win a battle with Maya right now.

Rufus delivered some Boga for The Lord while we were on line.


Then half and hour with Bali-mardana Das about ISKCON Ministry of Education and upcoming Viplavah conference.


Then 1/2 hour with devotees in Houston about personal problems and Bh. Vai.


Then going for a walk with NgD and Dr. Desai with a new route and man named Fallon stopped his bicycle and asked us if there was a Sanga (Sangha) here. He said he saw us walking in our robes and hoped he would have a chance to run into us.


We talked for a while and gave him our address card. Hope he contacts us.


Then, letter writing. FEP online with Radha Natabara. then, now!!!! 😊 😊 😊


Thank you for the letters and news of your Sankirtan!!!


If we chant Hare Krsna we are all packed up together eternally.

.............a ! Hrdayananda Swami is giving class on the Radha Natavara, local Yatra, Zoom account as we write. Full day. We stayed awake all night, last night, and then pushed through until class but started having more and more intense headache, so we rested instead of organizing the SB class. We talked to Upendra about the class and heard that Art Das organized, Upendra and Laksmana organized his presentation and Radhika ramana Das talked more about the Vedas Personified.


Everyday walking!

Today one and one-half hours of marriage counseling.

O.K. . . . Hare Krsna!

Hare Krsna!

"Radha pray to Krsna to engage us in His service".
