Cold and sharp rain sprinkles outside.

NgD canceled our marching orders.


We can't do any more computer work.

We want to but it will cause permanent damage to our eyes.

Yet we can chant after the fashion of the YouTube link for Prabhupada Singing that we Tweeted.


"Bolo Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare.

Bolo Rama Rama, Hare Hare"


So

nice.

Dance of the undead donkeys!


Lord Nrshma deva can bash anybody's head with His club. (Especially ours).


So beautiful is Vrndavana, where Krsna and the Go, Gopi, Gopa play. They live in a great forest and forget any other way.

There is one road passing in and going on out, from the other worlds.

Sometimes some one comes down it with an ox cart, but they are just absorbed in their work in their little village way.

It is all so important, which girl is wearing Krsna's garland remnant!

Life and Death.

😉

Help them live!

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.


MI, NIOS, all seem to be offering options to the modern world at large. We can row our little boat but only Sri Krsna and the Assembled Devotees can pull a great big barge.


Tried to answer the Blog letters in terms of priority. A lot there!!

TB/BW

E KRSNA, HARE RAMA! Jaya Radha, Jaya Shyama! It is 7.41PM. Sunset is 5PM. That's when we start our 45-minute exercise walk with NgD. We get attacked by heavy depression because it is dark, cold, we are not getting the Sankirtan results we want, but.. we see that we keep struggling, struggling, struggling, to get our rounds done with


ENTHUSIASM

.. which means FMP!!! Then some little progress is always made!! We got five bags of paper and plastic off to the recycling can. We are saving Bhumi from suffering, then she can do her job for Govinda.


Washed the clothes,

Spent one hour preparing for Hawaii class and one hour presenting and then 15-minutes with good talk with Ramananda Das, Organizer, after it.


Very satisfying to do PPTX.


Now 45-minutes answering letters. Is tough because we have like fifty that are mostly Annual Reports (from devotees who apologize for not reporting during the year 😁), but is so nice to hear from devotees.


Put URGENT in the field and describe what it is if it is not an Annual Report.


It is a great honor to be able to try and offer something to devotees so they can advance more and more and more.... O.K.


Have letter from ARTD, Gandharva Das et al to answer.


Now Local evening program and cook some broccoli for Lord. Nrsmha.

Thank you,

HpS/TB/BW

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.

Been a long day.

TB/BW here.


HpS - Got up about 2.47AM and chanted some Japa etc. Bath.... FMP... Prepared for SB class.

It is a struggle for him to control his mind and do the work,

but as he mentions in the post by Carlos, he has learned a little how to dovetail his passions and keep moving.

Class was very satisfying and then we had enough energy to call Dr. Samaresh. We had to ight with the robots.

Talked for 1/2-hour. He has wonderful suggestion that Solaris and Stapathyam work together. He is seeing very similar projects to what we have from this side for Solaris.


Then rested.

Saw a biography of Lord Cochrane. Was interesting. How to be a Ksatriya for Krsna.


Whatsapp mail, Yahoo mail, looked at the Tsunami of mail in the Blog.

Washed our clothes.

Washed the 10-pounds of excellent groceries that M. Desai sent with Rufus.

Fought to contact Globat to get www.JayaRama.US working.

Had to break the chat and go walking with NgD and Viajay. Got in some good running.

Little work on the DTC(p) for Vatsala Das.

Other stuff could not do.

15-minutes with RRD.

8PM local Kirtan and NOI.

Letter from Carlos.

8.41PM - Good night.

Thank you.

Hot milk and KRSNA book.

TB/BW (Trying to escape from the spell of The Evil One).


(KRSNA is very beautiful.. Too beautiful).

How is Hrdayananda Goswami?

Hurray! Krsna!

AgtSP

paoho...... we are dying? How about you.

Brother Ass' chest aches are very low.

Eyes are weak but O.K.


Digestion O.K.


Got water dripping in Kitchen and Bathroom because it is already (9.53PM) below freezing and if the water is not moving in the pipes they will freeze, expand and BURST (B OOM!).

How are you?

We have 16 nice rounds done.

[] [] []


We love Krsna.


We are afraid of Him. He is just to frightenng! He wants to eat us! With His glances.


- -


Got a lot of letters more, but our backside and eyes hurt from writing. It is also hard to do. So nice to hear from devotees.


Gave three classes to day: NOD, Puerto Rico (that was fun) and Murfrees boro. Ran to join NgD for our 45-minute walk. Heard a little bit about the madness of Trump??

Cut and collated the last DTC(p) and started a new one.

We don't know much beyond what is happening in our little room.

🤓

Can dye and any moment. Or live for 10,000 years.


Oink!


Hare Krsna! Hare Rama! vidya vadu jivanam... Always chanting gives us priorities. There is unlimited service, and no one can do it all. Do the most important things first and then the rest of the army, Krsna, will do the rest.


Where is Sita?


Here is the ring!!!


We will return to Rama with your jewel.

Brahma Muhurtha

4 years, 5 months ago by madhavendrapuridasa in DTC

Hare Krishna Maharaja, por favor acepte mis humildes reverencias, todas las glorias a Srila Prabhupada.

Espero que este bien Maharaja, le quería preguntar una duda que tengo acerca de una frase que un discípulo suyo me envió que dijo usted.


En el texto dice que el que duerme en el Brahma muhurtha tomara conciencia para nacer como rata en Vrindavan en la siguiente vida; entonces tengo dos preguntas:


1- Es que nacer como cualquier tipo de animal en Vrindavan es una bendicion incluso como una rata y será su ultimo nacimiento en la tierra. Por qué si dormir en el Brahma muhurtha no es una austeridad tiene ese resultado tan bueno de nacer en Vrindavan.


2- Cual es la fuente de los sastras donde indica esa información ? ya que no la escuche antes en las escrituras.


Muchas gracias.

Su sirviente.


Madhavendra Puri Dasa.

Hare Krishna, Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I hope Maharaja is well.


HpS - 90%, but fighting with The Witch. Your association is essential!


I wanted to ask you a question I have about a phrase that a disciple of yours sent me that you said.

In the text he says that the one who sleeps in the Brahma muhurtha will become conscious to be born as a rat in Vrindavan in the next life; so I have two questions:


1- It is that being born as any type of animal in Vrindavan is a blessing even as a rat and it will be its last birth on earth. Why if sleeping in the Brahma muhurtha is not an austerity does it have such a good result of being born in Vrindavan.


HpS - ASA -- I don't think we said that. I think it was the prediction of Monkey or Piggy et al. Prabhupada said, (they say), that if we are in ISKCON, but don't follow the regulative principles well then Krsna may find a way to sneak us into Vrndavana by the back door eg. as rats in the sewers or lusty monkeys.

But he said better to come in through the front door with our head up, showing a good example of Srila Prabhupada.

He said, there are already enough monkeys in Vrndavana.


2- What is the source of the sastras where it indicates that information? since I did not hear it before in the scriptures.


HpS - We would have to find Monkey and ask him. The above is part of the "Sastric" citation. Morning walk? Class? Also, now we are remembering Srila Prabhupada saying in one of these also about ... I think Yajnavalkya Das b'cari told me he heard Prabhupada say that if we sleep during Mangala arati we will become rats in our next life. They like to pile up together under ground and sleep.

Story of regular day of Krsna in Krsna book gives nice description of Brahma muhurta and its importance.


Thanks a lot.

His servant.

Madhavendra Puri Dasa.
