Hare Krsna!!


6.23PM.... Long, hard, productive day. We finished, cut, folded, copied, stamped, addressed a 6-page letter to Subal et al in Richmond. We tried to distribute a scanned copy here but the print-through from writing on the back of each page makes it look bad.

Good letter. Lots of pasted stuff.


Then we answered the mail and cook for Krsna...


Now local Kirtan and short class at 8PM with Radha Natabara's Yatra.


Where is Sita?

She must be really worried that Rama is unhappy without Her!


Look for Her! Give Her the Ring, and answer Her questions about Rama and Laksmana.

We attach one page of the letter as a sample.

here!

paoho/bw..


We want to write more (and also not write more), but the decision is being taken by our occular orbiters, eyeballs.

Dead.

Head

Starting to ache.


99% good day.


Alarm went off at !!! 3.37AM. WHY??? We set it for 2.37AM . . . Bath, laundry, FMP... Ah, ha!!! It is Daylight Savings Time. Our clock reset it self.


👺 - Trust me, I am a robot.


Did a lot of work on the PPTX for tonight at 9PM for San Diego class.


Walking/Talking with NgD.


Such nice reports in the letters today, no?

Krsna should be able to do SO much with efforts like these.

We never harvest in the same season we plant.

Seems like we can only become pure devotees after we are dead. This world is so dull. Maybe we get association that will kill us. The Braja vasis got that. Krsna "left them" and they were all dead living people.

-

Hope Abhirama, Nanda-raja and everyone are getting GREAT results from their special mercy. Becoming devotees on the same level as Narada Muni.

TB/BW, AgtSP!!! paoho... 🐒 🐖 🌳 🌴🌴


We had pretty good Sankirtan today.

Of course, last night after our walk we were hit very quickly by the strongest headache we have had in our life. Maybe impacted lower bowels. Maybe not. (Ha! Ha! Hare!). This body is an embarrassment for boys or girls.

. .We tried to rest, do light work, and by 4.30AM it was down to 50% and is down to 5% now, but still ready to spring back if we spend any more time on this machine.


  • Listened to the Hawaii class. Very nice.
  • Wrote a five of six page letter to Subal sakha and Krsna pramodini Devi Dasi in Rich Mond.
  • Fixed our brake light etc. etc.


Pandemic and the Future of ISKCON Temples

Our theory (Brown and White, after asking Uncle Gismo) is that this Karuna virus is the mercy of God on ISKCON and the world, so that people will stop destroying the world (to soon) with industrialization, and start moving back to local living and high thinking.

Science worked liked expensive asses to fight it and show their might,

but now the little natural reaction of the virus to mutate,

and all their effort may go out as trash.


People are starting to live together again as two and three generation families.


Buy bigger houses.


Buy a whole block and take out the backyard fences!!


Base you life in a village. Any visitors can stay in the guest house outside the village gate for two weeks if there is a pandemic.


ISKCON temples should obtain orchards and start to move in that direction with alacrity.


Also, we Tom Brown and Buck White, consulting Uncle Gismo, propose that when the 17-year Cicada cycle brings those noisy devils out this year in Tennessee there is a 75% chance that they will sterilize the whole local atmosphere (maybe five States) from the virus and the material scientists will be forced to be a lot more humble and say that they really need some broader look at nature, that their system is just not including all this reality.


If it happens,

Remember you heard it first,

Here, at the ASA's

😲Science for Simpletons😬

That's all the letters we can do now. PCTDas is responding by Whatsapp. It is 6.47PM now. Must be the vaccine. No headache now, but weak and little nausea all day.

Krsna still drops service in our lap.

So we try to do it.

Actually rather sick, but not much pain, just reduced capacity, do what we can do, and realize that it is eternal.

Same for you, no?

You are a great hero.

Just staying associated with this movement. Struggling to get 16-rounds done, 4-principles, fasting on Ekadasi...

Then ... play with Krsna.


"Come on Krsna! Let's play ball with everyone. Let's listen to a new story! Let's help people with their work to build a better Braja!"

Mad, Mad Monkey,

Mad, Mad Mind,

Makes us a little bit,

Narrow and blind.


Snkrtn Rprt

Japa, Bath, Puja,

FMP

. . . . Nap, pa, pa.

Packing, 1-hour for Karuna-virus inoculation.

It made us proud to be Gringos! 🚀 It was very well organized. Army and National Guardsmen were there, and everyone cheerful and doing there job. We had to go through 6-check points, so when we took the inoculation it was like a religious ritual of something.

. Hallelujah!

. Koruna virus! Then Kroger's for potatoes, frozen orange juice (for popsicles (Maya!)), disinfectant, oranges, light bulbs. Post office [line was nine-people (HK, HR)] to mail Bh. Cithkala's beads and back home, back to Hill Head!

. . . We gave two LOBs with NIOS brochures to the inoculation lady.


0-0-0 Lunch for Lord. (Ate too much).


Laundry, house keeping, walking/talking with NgD.

Burfi from Harilila Das and M. Madhavi Devi Dasi, Cookies and letter from Caitanya and Purusottama Gupta.


Checked the Whatsapp, Text, and Blog mail.

Will try to answer some of the letters!

Our Maya, as Sannyasis, is just to tell everyone, "Chant Hare Krsna and let it all go to destruction".


Here in the DTC with you! We think of CMDD, then ARTD, then .... how everyone will react if we mention this name and then that name. It is very funny. It is only sane belonging to any community if we all have one lover, no?

Krsna!



1/2 round to chant.

Brother Ass has a headache, so we are not irritating him too much. Was a 95% successful day.


Such wonderful Mangala arati, SB class, talks with Texas, Utah, Tennessee, Peru.

  • Laundry.
  • Blog.
  • Now it's time to die (rest).

We like the 'Tears in the Rain' soliloquy from "Blade Runner".


The cowherd boys, when they are sitting under the shady trees in the afternoons must have so may discussions about dramas, poems, that the gopis, others are producing in Vrndavana.


  1. Composition
  2. Production
  3. Criticism

The three aspects of Drama.


See you in The Heavens. (Bhur, Bhuva, Sva).
