AgtSP Paoho. We reached ISKCON Delhi. Did five hours of lectures at two universities and two temples along the way. Five hours driving. Accommodations nice but not heated. Struggle. Struggle. Struggle. Result!

Our voice completely gone 😀 but hope for its quick return.

Sankirtan. Ekadasi. Hare Krsna!

FMP in Vrndavana! Cold. Fresh. 500-devotees. Then went to Radha kinda. Thunder. Lightening. Hail. Robbers. Success. Visited 100-holy places. Bare foot. Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. Can see Krsna's hand everywhere. Vrijabasis. Even nasty factories and pollution are controlled by Krsna in Vrndavana.

Back from Radha kunda. Rest ie. Read. Honey and fruit. Ride through the storm clouds to Jaga Mohan, Brijabasi, home to see him family and blind Father. Very intense. 😲.

Back to Temple. Meet with Sri Hari Das. Tomorrow to Delhi

Jagadguru, Carlos, Arjuna called … Rodrigo had gone to Goloka. Hare Krsna!

Met Carlos's guru here.

Talked with Dr. Samaresh.

Take rest.

Thank you.

Same

for

We see the image of Sri Sri Jagannatha Swami on our little book-bag lying beside us on our bead. He is very beautiful.

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.

We have not started any rounds yet.

We feel pretty good. We only served some fruit Prasadam last night.

Hare Krsna Hare Rama.

We are too weak to get up and wash our hands and mouth and sip a little water.

Sarva-bhauma Bhattacarya accepted Prasada without taking bath!

We are chanting, writing, without taking bath. Our energy should come in a little while.

Today we go to Radha-Kunda.

"Let your brain make plans based upon constant chanting of the Maha-mantras at the feet of your Spiritual Master, Acharya."

LIVE IN A BUBBLE OF TIME AND SPACE,

DOMINATED BY THE LOTUS FEET OF HIS DIVINE GRACE.

CHANT THE MAHA-MANTRAS THREE

AND THE SERVICE OF RADHA AND KRSNA YOU WILL SEE.

2.05 CHANT JAPA. ANSWER MAIL. MORE DTC LATER.

Hare Krsna!!! AGtSP!! TB, here. We are in Pune Temple still. Our flight to Delhi was cancelled at the last minute!! We had to look for a new flight and only thing available is through Ahamadabad. Leave 2.30PM arrive 7.30PM. Then we'll go directly to Vraja!

We are there until Friday, then we go to Delhi for Programs.

While we are in Del/Vraja you can call Sri Hari Das or Harsh to get in touch with us.

We are posting this stuff on Twitter regularly.

Hare Krsna. We finally rested today. Our body was very exhausted from the MOE symposium but also very good work!!

Hare Krsna, AGTSP!!! Paoho. Monkey/Piggy here!!! Did you like the KDh??

Still in the Pune Temple. It is about 20,000 acres and 100,000 people come each evenign for Gara Arati. Sataksi came last night with here new husband. He is a very nice person.

Each day we do 10.30-1.30 and 4.30-6.30 with the Board of Examiners. It is starting right now. We are working on redesigning the Examinations for the 4-degree program. Atul Krsna Das, Gauranga-darshana Das, Laksmni mauni and Prasanta devi dasi's, Adi-purusa Das, one excellent Indian B'cari who s name we forget and others visiting. They are all very erudite, excellent devotees who have taught hundreds of BhS et al programs. Very interesting hearing about all kinds of different students.

It is very very hard mental work. We have to use many techiniques to avoid headaches. Our ideas are appreciated sometimes and rejected others. Same for others, but no one becomes angry or unenthusiastic. Present again or accept the difference.

O.K. Here we go again.

Radha-natha Swami liked our lecture in Eco Village. About 1,000 people for his lecture thing morning. Pune we secnd in th Kristmas marathon.

Sunday we leave a 5AM for Delhi.

Dr. Samaresh writes:

Peru letter not yet received by me.

Monkey Piggy answer:

Yes! ☹ I don't know what has happened with them after I started this travel. Only 5% contact. When I hear this it gives me INTENSE stomach pain. I have to ask, "Am I doing my best? Am I choosing right priorities?"

Only one day and I am 75% adapted to local Asrama function! Not an easy task. 🐘

Spent two hours with Gauranga Darshan Das Brahmacari. He is biggest curriculum development scholar in ISKCON. Over 6-hundred pages of didactic material. Tomorrow and next day two hours more including his students and teachers. 😲

Can't use someone else's phone here! No towers!

Help!
