Hare Krsna.

AGTSP

Paoho.. We have been very distorted. The Pita, fire element, in our body has been too, too, high and out of place.   This is from too much agitation: Travel, work, NIOS accounting, NIOS car kidnapped, Indradyumna Swami's show production, preparing to travel for two months, etc. etc.

So, we take shelter of Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet and HK/HR   Jaya Sri Vrndavana DHama.

We are really still traveling and answering mail is still a problem.

We have to rest the body or we will get throat cancer.

But we are still doing the important things.

Die fighting The Witch.

Hare Krsna,

We are doing pretty good.  NOT perfect.  We are struggling to get our rounds done.  So much work in Spain and getting back it is just as complicated. It is mostly in goodness. The devotees got 800 seats reserved for Viva Kultura in 18-days. Incredible work from Krsna and devotees here, but no NIOS brochure to hand out to the guests. $10,000 investment. So, we tried to do something and fought and now we will go pick up 750 copies.

Hare Krsna!

Get up early and get your rounds done.

It is the last day in The Old Country, Spain, Madrid. We are packing everything for our long journey tomorrow: 19-hours from door to door.   We plan to do all of the Bhakti-sastri examination review. Catch up on the last rounds we got behind during our fever in Boise.

Enlist the interestnig people Krsna sends in the Sankirtan of Nitai Chaitanya-candra and ISKCON.

Tonight we have a Nectar of Instruction seminar. First one was last night, 2-hours (after 1-1/2 hour GBC meeting (after one hour television interview (after...))))))>   Just go on preaching and it will become systematic.   With NOI as a basis we can sense the level of the audience and select the Texts.  Last night was 90% just the Preface ie. Historical and currently cultural aspect.

Thank you Chandra mukhi Devi Das, Abhirama thakura Das, Gadai, Karuna krsna, Jiva, Radhika.......  

HK/HR  ----  Finally got good campsite and good internet and good (70 years old) body energy to communicat. 13 rounds done. Do 3 more en route to Rathayatra. Now there is rain. Expect to leave at 5PM and get back at 10.30PM from Rathayatra. FMP with short class and good questions here in Jayanta Das' ahsrama.  SPAIN!!  Madrid!!!

10,000 devotees here.

Next is regular Saturday ASA/ABC/SB class. We have 30-minutes to prepare. We have been on the computer (from Gopinatha Das) for one hour with MOE, NIOS and ASA mail. OUr eyes are beginnging to fail.

We will honor Prasad after class. We will do the class preparation and cause a little permanent damage to our health. Permanent damage is another name for regular daily activities. Everything we do brings our death nearer, but that is O.K. for a devotee (even monkey/pig devotee) because it means getting a new vehicle. We get a chance to upgrade!

Each incarnation Krsna and Balarama improve their service. (of course so does The Black Witch (may she be blessed)).

O.K.   See you in cyberspace.  Back in USA next Wednesday.  We get Text messages.

About, AGTSP, paoho, twelve devotees in the Temple room chanting Japa. Day after Janmastami. We did pretty well. The fast was tough but we did lectures, initiations, conversations....   Now we got internet for few minutes so lets grab it.

Our Vyasa puja offering is in post from Nikunja.

This trip through Spain has been intense: One night in New Vraja Mandala, three nights in Barcelona, Ramblas. It is one of the biggest tourist places in Europe. The smell of alcohol, urine etc floats in the air. People are dressed in loud, plastic colors and trying to beat their bodies like dead horses to get Rasa from their sense.

So unfortunate. We go out with the Sankirtan party and they have an option. Some come. Som join us!

We will write about how to celebrate Janamstami for our ABC Year curriculum.

We sent our Solari article to Abhirama Das.

We wrote back to Sugopis radha Devi Dasi's professor in Boise and will work on an introduction to alternate medicine in psychiatry for her.

O.K. Back to Japa and then presentation from 9-10AM on Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna,

AGTSP paoho.

Here we sit in the Berkeley Temple room. It is 6PM. We are camped in a little.  corner of the B'cari ashrama. We had to use our ingenuity. to bath.

We know so many old devotees here. Rathayatra was tough, but success. Now we are getting ready for the evening program. We may get a room later.

Hare Krsna.

Hare Krsna.

God is love.
