agtSP.

Here, Champaka room in Nila-madhava Dhama, ISKCON Houston, with the sun at 4.42 post-meridian. brother ass 🏇 is feeling in a maelstrom of vertigo, distorted eye-sight, congested breathing, borderline heart functioning, and general infinitesimal consciousness available to the jivatma.

Yet... 💥 Hare Krsna! 💥 The Holy Names can put all of this in pure goodness at any moment!

Now 33-rounds to complete to be up to our 16/day because we fell behind during this flu attack.

About 77% normal in health now. 😃

Our little Sankirtan 99% on schedule with help of:

• nanda
• g. Bh. dd and Sarva.
• vijaya,
• srinivasa, mataji, jhd.
• n. gopal.
• nayanamrta.
• ngd.
• abhiseka
• radha natabara sanga.
• 1,000 nmd devotees.
• saranga,
• shyamasundara,
• darshana desai mataji

...

....

... and, we erased three of the most important names so that we could communicate that we are just overwhelmed by the mercy of the devotees!. . . !!.

Kapi Dhvaja goes like Tuesday.

Will work on the Calendar.

Now we roughly push Brother Ass into his bath, pack and go to the Temple for Sunday festival.

See you there.

Mayapura.tv, channel houston.

...

We checked the Blog and think we got the Urgent stuff.

Tom Brown, Secretary ASA!

🐵 👍

Brown and White here.

HpS/Brother Ass are a little ragged.

things are going pretty well.

people, projects and perspectives are going pretty well.

hare krsna, hare krsna.

talked with nandulal das for about 2.5 hours about our calendar, our lives, light of the bhagavata symposium.

got a plan of work.

now hps haztu prep his pptx for the first BLS (Bhaktivedanta Library Seminar).

It'll be in the Temple, www.mayapura.tv ,, Houston Channel at 7.30PM.

we tweeted it.

we whatsapped it.

we saw how to control the big screen tv monitors to project the show...

.... hare krsna, hare rama... just on board, here we go 🚣

🐵 🐒 - Tom Brown,

🐷 🐖 - Buck White,

🔬 - Uncle Gismo et al,

offering their obeisances to Srila Srila Prabhupada and asking His Divine Grace to serve in his Sankirtan, Lord Caitanya's Sankirtan.

Now the Sun is at 4.41 Post Meridian and has disappeared from our vision, but officially Sunset is 5.22PM here in Nila-madhava Dhama, ISKCON Houston.

We just finished 1.08 hours.minutes conversation with ArtDas about NIOS, ASA, and a little about management points in ISKCON Peru.

We have suggested to the NIOS Board of Directors that they Dissolve the Corporation unless at least five Directors swear on a pile of SP's BBT books one feet tall that they will do three things for NIOS every year:

1. Have Annual Board of Directors Meeting to review actions of the Officers for the previous year and give direction to the Officers for the following year.
2. Make annual filing to the Secretary of State of Tennessee for NIOS.
3. Make annual filing with the federal, national, Internal Revenue Service.

Also, that H. H. Robinson is officially resigning from all formal management posts in NIOS on 2024 January 12, but will be fully available for any service in concordance with his capacity. Of course, mostly offering advice, perspective.

• We have 15/16 rounds done.
• We over-ate like 13% at breakfast, but was 25% yesterday!
• We should send short notes to RKD, Bh. Guimo, check the rest of the WhatsApp mail (that's why we called the Thakur), and walk to The Temple about 5.30PM for Gayatri in front of Srila Prabhupada, Kirtan for Radha Nila-madhava, and take rest about 9PM.
• Tomorrow or Monday we should be able to make some more contribution to the administrative situation in Peru with communications with Daru-krsna Das, Karuna-krsna Das and Mathuresa Das, posting some more of our perspective as Sannyasi here.

"The conclusion is that diplomacy used for the service of the Lord is a form of devotional service." (https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/12/44/)

Thank you.

'are krsna, mates!

brown and white here 🐵 🐷

Brother Ass 🏇 has moderate chest pains.

the sun 😎 is at 5.07PM Houston time. Just set. Room is getting dark.

We have done all the mail. Yahoo, Whatsapp, Blog up to 3-days old.

Posted our Notebook notes to our Calendar, DTC (CB) etc.

16-rounds done.

Was offered fruit platter, maha-prasad platter, peas porridge in the pot, and scavenged Raghunatha Das Goswami remnants... and ate a little too much.

Really need to chant KK HH more while we are collecting, eating, honoring Prasdam.

Can we make it to the Temple at 7PM?

Can we join Radha Natabara Sanga?

What projects are pending:

1. NIOS Board of Directors, administration, is up to date. Thinking we should change to just on-call status January 12th.
2. Peru administration with H. G. Daru-krsna Das, Nadiya/Milan/National Council seems to be going reasonably well. Waiting for some responses and comments.
3. Houston Calendar O.K. Going to die, death is on the way. 😃

There are so many options for service!

"On the platform of love and affection, it is the duty of the devotee to do one thing first and other things later. The proper intuition by which to do this is given by Kṛṣṇa."

Maha mantra is to guide us out of Maya, but also to guide us in finding our position amongst all the alternatives in the spiritual world, no?

Hare Krsna!

Sannyasi is supposed to travel and report new places to the GBC for opening centers.

That also includes traveling in Newspapers, Media, Internet?

asa - how is jambavati devi dasi?

asta sakhi devi dasi - AGTSP! PAOHO! 

Gurumaharaja, logramos contactar a Jambavati, le envía sus respetuosas reverencias, dice que está bien, tratando de resolver los retos diarios, está tratando de hacer arreglos para regresar a México, continúa cuidando a su padre, por lo que pensó que no hay una novedad importante para informar.

asa - 🙋 graaacias. cada respiracion de una sankirtanera es una novedad!

oink. oin. whoop. whoop

AgtSP!!

Brother Ass has a head ache!! Three hours catching up on political and family conflicts in ISKCON.

Very satisfying.

Now is dark.... outside. we will go to the Temple, only ten minute walk. Try to see Nila Madhava and Radharani and how we can serve Them.

Gave class this morning. Didn't know we were supposed to.

Mangala arati is always intense here. Vijaya Das and Radha-krsna Das are here!!

Like being in Vrndavana during Kartika.

Honored prasadam 70% properly.

Got 15-rounds done.

With help of Lord Nrsmhadeva hope to be of use to Srila Prabhupada!

Four pages of DTC/Composition Book written.

Just read the Kapi Dhvaja! It's pretty complete!!!

Letters up to one week old in the Blog! One from Govaradhana Das and Asta sakhi Devi Dasi, look pretty hot, but no one wrote URGENT so we will schedule them for tomorrow. Leave for arati now. Nine degrees Celsius outside.

Try to call Sri Hari Das after arati and join Sri Sri Radha Natabara Sanga tonight. Then read the KRSNA book and rest for a few hours!

Thank you!!

Hari Bolo!

Parque Pogo, Ki Jai!!
