Hare Krsna.

AgtSP. Paoho. They are 8.03 AM.

We are in New Biharvan, ISKCON Boise, Idaho.

The trip was hell and one-half! We have been through hell and five-halves in travel to/from India!

You also?

Left 902 Hillcrest at 4AM Boise Time (ACT) and arrived at our residence at 2AM. That's 22-hours! Before that we were packing for three hours with a great Mangala-arati.

As soon as we hit the road at 5AM there was dense, fast, little crazy, traffic!

Zoom! ZOOM! Z O O M !

Our mind and senses are 72-years old, so it was a challenge driving.

Then we had to find the exit for the gas refill. We found it with a little bit of jumping. Found the gas station. Pumped the gas. Worried about missing our flight. It was $3 for the gas. We saved $12 against the Avis gas refill charges.

Then. . . with the help of the nice Lady-in-the-Cell-Phone and other stuff we found the Avis rental car drop-off. Dude was a cultured dude from Ethiopia. We were just naturally preaching(?!) and at then end he asked us to pray for him!

We asked him to pray for us and shoved him a NOI!

Security guard asked, "How are you today"? We said that this was the material world and everyone is suffering. He nodded mildly and said, "Have a safe jouney" with a serious look.

So, lot of chance to meet people and talk with them. We need more NIOS/ASA promo material to give to people. LOB, NOI...

Then WhooOOp! WhhhOOOOP! whOOp! Earthquake in Salt Lake City. Water pipes busting. Control towers out of commission. Rickter 5!

Plane diverted with three more planes to ?? Rapid Falls, South Dakota!!!? The home of Mount Rushmore, and we did Rush no More!

-[;0]/\__

Like six hours sitting. Everybody was really cool.

God bless America!

Talked with a lot of people. Communicated good ideas.

NOMOREBOOKS! -[;o{/\__

Back to SLC and waiting for six more hours, until 12.30AM!!!

Always chatting with Ananata-rupa Das, Srinivasas, Abhi, et al, et al.

We were supposed to avoid Karuna virus and almost died of an earthquake.

Have lot of arythmias, so may die of a heart attack any time.

Was hell sleeping, sitting, in the airport with 300 other refugees. Bananas $1.20 ea.! Yet, we adjusted pretty well and were pretty comfortable.

Watched <ovo. "Midway" on the airplane while we chanted. Hmmm! Skipped the family life.

Then ran the "Adams Family" with no sound while we flew from SLC to BOI at 12.30AM with our brains sloshing in our skull and our heart coughing a little to keep from going mad.

-0-

Arrived, nap, CLEANED everything. Got four rounds done. Ekadasi!

Set up our ASA Camp site.

We will probably get Karuna virus and suffocate to death. We are thinking about how to do it.

It will probably also kill about 90% of our GBC members.

Hmmm. Telecomunication will break down, but "Very nice! We can just sit down together and chant Hare Krsna and not have to deal with all these worries about Sankirtan!"

-or-

An astrological change is expected on the 24th and there will be a spontaneous remission of Karuna virus and Rascal Science will be greatly ruffled, and Demonism and Pseudo Science will gain strides!

Actually, hear about Krsna and teach other's about Krsna, and it will be a happy harmony in hell on the way to heaven.

Hare Krsna!!! AGTSP paoho. Very best wishes for your Sankirtan.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama, Jaya Sri Vrndavana Dhama.

How are you?

Karuna virus encircles us. Everyone is conscious of it.

Our community and nation are reacting to it with intelligence and physical resources.

In any case we cannot avoid death and dis-ease. We like ease! The easy life, but we get bored unless there is dis-ease, strong struggle to take it away from us.

Dual-ality. What about real-ality?

Yoga postures. Yama/Niyama - Dos and don'ts. Breath control. Karma (Get a good garden (get a good nation))... but Hare Krsna/Hare Rama... it is all included, easiest process. Chanting and dancing!

See

you

in

the

Sankirtan! Hare Krsna // Hare Rama... at the lotus feet of Krsna... in the choir of His angels.

Rented a car. Best way to get to the airport. Of course, we fear the car has Karuna virus (KV). We can't wipe it down, because all the hand wipes have been bought.

Took the Mercedes for emission testing. It passed but does not show up on line so we can't complete the registration until we return.

Cooked Kitri, Orange juice and pudding for Lord Nrsmha deva.

Leave for the airport at 5AM and get to Boise about noon.

The mothers are telling the men, 'Stay home. Don't go out'. The men are saying, 'Life goes on. We have to visit the sick and wounded. Repair the wind mill.'

Preaching is the best standard for establishing material functioning. It is a lighthouse in the storm, ocean.

If we stay at home, there is no guarantee that things will get better. Trust no future no matter how bright. They may only get worse and society may collapse and this may be our last chance to see people on the West coast.

O.K. Hare Krsna!!! We will be in Boise for one week.

About 75% perfect day.

Our eyeballs, AGTSP, Paoho, are wrenched!! We are just heading off through the dark Jungle to walk with NgD and Dr. Desai with our Sastra.

We sent Viplavah to Abhirama for formatting. We tried to buy the Lima, BsAs, Santiago, Lima tickets but the robat failed.

Hare Krsna!!!!

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.

AGTSP.... Paoho... It s 5.10PM. Sunsets in about half an hour. It is cloudy but no rain. Seems we will go walking and talking with NgD and Dr. Desai and Vijaya Ji at 6PM!

We had a pretty strict day. We have 13-rounds done. We have not insulted God to often! Our Fanny aches from sitting so long and answering letters. Our eyes are about finished.

To answer the mail (only with the Kapi Dhvaja Priority Code from the Lettes to the Editor section in the Kapi Dhvaja) takes a long time just by itself.

We are supposed to send the Viplavah today.

VERY HIGH PRIORITY.

When shall we do it? With what body (eyes and fanny).

OK. Lets start on it.

AGTSP paoho. Yesterday was like 97% effective. Always lots of details contacting different devotees, Sankirtan, Viplavah. Printers, second hand store, market, post office!!!

FEP with NgD and Vijaya!

Today, FMP and then body seemed to need some rest.

Now 6.37PM quick Bath and headed to Friday program with NgD et al. Will broadcast on gotomeeting.com

Hare Krsna!!

Oink! Whoop! E=MC*2

AGTSP!!!!! We are very, very tired!! This world is a battle for EVERYONE. Look at pictures of the President of the United States before and after their term in Congress. It is the same for you?

One of the biggest things for us has been the temporary loss of our computer. Sink!!!!

Finally, we got Dr. Desai's son's old Mac book. Then it took us two days to get it really working, and it really only works like 70%. The control keys are different.... but it is bigger and the keyboard is good. Ha! Ha! ....

See the letters we posted! Finished all the KDPC letters from last fortnight.

Our trasero, fanny, is aching from sitting so long.

Has been cold and raining here all day. Violent challenge to go outside.

But one, good thing. Chant Hare Krsna / Hare Rama and you can see the beauty, Divine plan, in all this. You can join the fun, profit!

O.K. Enough Blog for one day, no? 5.30-7.30AM was the Latin American GBC meeting. Five devotees in Mayapura and five more from around the world. It was tedious but pretty good. We had like nine rounds done before it started. Then directly into the SB class! Then .... Answer Blog mail and a few other Urgent letters. Now!!! Let us rest and recreation.

Hare Krsna! Be an intelligent Monkey, Warrior. Smarter fighter every day. Whether a girl pulls the trigger or a guy pulls the trigger, the evil Rakshashas are just as dead.
