. Oink! Oink!

. Whoo! Whoop! ... . . . . Just got back from 2-hours of walking in the trails along the Stonestown river. It was spooky. Their were dense, deep swamps, covered with green and gray slime. There were strange woodsmen with axes walking along the forest path looking at us.

Yet also there were fair village folk, ignorant in their ways, with smoke and drink, but good hearted souls who need only the return of the King to set them right.

One women sat down on the bench next to ours to rest her dog and talk a little after we joked with her dog, and we discussed how dogs (people like dogs) become frightened and even violent when they meet something new.

The we walked on and got caught up on some of our rounds.

Today our allergy, hay fever, is 75% better.

Last three days it has been a KILLER. We could barely think. Just lying down an chanting mostly.

Very great mercy.

Great chance to learn to take advantage of the BIG MERCY.

We talked with Poggi Raja today for 20-minutes about leasing a villa in Peru for one year, and why we want to visit Peru;; and NIOS.

Then we presented/led Bhakti vaibhava workshop with ISV for 1-1/2 hours. Hard work but very productive. MOE.

While walking Sadhu sanga Das and Sudevi Das called us from Boise. I was thinking of them! He was our partner on the Braja mandala Parikrama for two years.

"We dug coal together"? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ms1BpTFYN4 ???).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFkAeQI7UuQ ????

More like going through Vietnam together. Going through Lokanatha Maharaja's braja mandala parikrama together!

Even German infantry soldiers said it was tough.

We talked for 24-minutes. They will move to Houston, to develop Krsna House.

We have so much knowledge to offer people, but how to sort it out, consolidate it, for "the next generation"?

We are still behind on the Blog mail, Tpp-NOI, but I guess our little Bhakti will get back to work again. Struggle to do what we can when the wind is favorable.

Hare Krsna.

AgtSP!

🐵 😴

"the man died but the operation was a success."

we get so weak sometimes.

trying to make a schedule that we can keep with the energy that we have, but travel and associating with different people, communities, leads us to irregulate situations.

that is one of the principle symptoms of Kali Yuga.

finished verse five of NOI TPP.

today was the first real bad hay fever day.

7.44PM - it is dark. the sky is dark.

tomorrow is fast until noon as far as I know.

must find a verse for the local community now.

Kirtan at 8PM. Verse at 8.15PM

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.

We hope we are useful to ISKCON Poggi.

Srila Prabhupada stands in the pleasant sands,

of the wonderful land of Vrindaban,

and is stimulated to serve Sri Shyama.

what does Krsna want in this world of clay,

which to Him is just a place to play,

with His friends and toys that came this way.

LET US EXPERIENCE THE EXTERNAL ENERGY FOR A WHILE!

AGTSP!

paoho

We are sitting in our room in Sri Sriman Subal-sakha Das and Mother Krsna pramodini Devi Dasi's Ashrama in the great forest of Richmond.

It is snowing outside and there are 16,108 bears standing in line across the street to get cups of hot soup before they head off to Brazil to get the gold and bring it back for the seven story tall Hare Krsna temple that Visvakarma and Hari-narayana Das are building here.

It will be something special, made of crystal with the gold like growing from it in natural feathers!

We are really intent on seeing Krsna within our heart.

You too?

It seems as we do that, we may lose all consciousness of the Bahir-anga Zakti and all the bodies that everyone has there. I guess we'll see everyone in their Zvarupa.

However, . . . a pure devotee lives quite happily within the material world seeing everything as a replica of Vaikuntha.

We humor the other maniacs in this mental hospital, and become more and more purified ourselves.

In SB 1. 15,16 M. Yuddhisthira send Arjuna to see the Lord to understand what is His next plan of work.

Then, our engagement in the dummy hall stimulates our real connection with Krsna in our hearts. We stay here because Krsna wants the battle, material works.

You don't have to get Karuna virus to die.

You can just stop breathing.

Okay.

Time for a short nap.

Hare Krsna!

9.38PM

We had a very austere day yesterday.

Felt we did an honest days work, renouncing a little sensuous pleasure to get more work done.

⛩ ⛩ ⛩

Maybe our donkey was not used to honest work,

🙄

but during Mangala-arati etc. we started having sharp cramps in our chest. Quite overwhelming, but holding onto our beads, chanting, reading, we were able to go ahead.

BETTER TO DIE CHANTING HARE KRSNA

Then we just had no energy in our heart.

Had to rest instead of SB workshop.

rest

.... rest

. rest.

Tandavika Das visited with Raja-bhoga from Giriraja. We discussed Krsna, Maya, Sankirtan from 12.00-2.30PM.

• Wall King/Talk King w/ NgD, Dr. Desai, Vijaya Ji!
• 16-rounds.
• 4-principles.
• FEP - PPTX (Hamlet and Arjuna).
• Looked at Blog letters, but could not an answer.

Feeling 83% better from the resting but,

Still some interior ache and void. 🙂

We

are

quite

Happy

💥

"Light Work Is The Best Rest", Bh. vinode Th.

Hare Krsna. Hare Rama.

See you in Sada Hari Kirtan.

Thank you.

Good night.

SANKIRTAN REPORTS

Brazil

Una joven, devota, tiene una infección y la nariz y es posible que deba extirparse.

¿Es esta misericordia de Krsna?

"¡Oye, Chica! ¡Despierta! ¡No vas a ser una joven atractiva para siempre! Aprende a vivir para que puedas ser perfectamente útil, amada, respetada, en cualquier circunstancia".

Fasting for Ekadasi etc. we usually become very weak... then we fall asleep... then we have a low but steady energy. SB class took some time to prepare but was very satisfying for us. It was the second part of our DTC-UT-S-VEDAS. Science and the Vedas.

Then walk and talk with NgD, Dr.D & Vijaya Ji.

8PM - Radha Nila-madhava group = Krsna and Balarama arrive at, and are received for, the marriage of Rukmini. Will we be citizens of Her city in our next lifetime?

EKASASI - WE CLOSE THE DTC[P]
