Letters to the editor

Oink!

Hare Krsna. Tandavika Das may come at any moment, so we will write now. 

It is 1.54PM, two Gayatris, 13/16 rounds done.  Class on internet this morning. Offered potatoes, oatmeal Kitri to Lord Nrsmha Deva.

It is 36/3 Farenheit/Celcius degrees outside and dark. It is O.K. here. NGD and all the family have gone to Dallas for the New Years Kirtan with 700 devotees and gurus.

We are very small. This world is very violent. We try to move carefully so that we don't get mangled, mauled. A tongue surrounded by sharp teeth.

Besides being violent it is also booring. Prabhupada says that everything in the material world in dull.

We have the NIOS accounts mostly under control from the India Trip. There are $28,000, but many expenses coming!   Hope the first movie with Oscar, Kalyana, Hector... is a very big success.

So, may projects like that: ISV Bhakti-vedanta, MOE Viplavah, Brazil GBC College.   Hmmm?   How can we think that we have enough energy to deal with all these things, surrounded by -10 degree (tonight) weather.

Haw!    Haw!!  Haw Ray!

We answered all the letters to one week ago. Now we will read a few Annual Reports before Tandavika Das comes (from Franklin (45-minutes)))>     Thank you.

Boom!      Booom!          Bo oomm !        We keep on throwing rocks at Ravana whenever we get back on our feet. Sita is sad.

hare krsna.

we are tired just like you?    robust talk with abhirama thakura das, class for hawaii, nios work, telephone chat with jaya-krsna das and Bhakti Tom Daigle, 30-minute walk with NGD. we saw nobody outside. is -2 degrees Centigrade.

full gaura arati and noi reading. we started chanting, loud and then we saw that we could choose to be happy. we can also choose to think about how evil we are and how we deserve to be punished by our society, but we can choose to be happy. so many times that happens in gaura arati, kirtan, our spirits get lifted up.

we have no money, clothes, family. we do not rely on our church. we have problems helping our students....    but we have the holy names. they bring everything.

they bring eternal life.

the opportunity to massage srila prabhupada's lotus feet.

Moon Beams from a Larger Lunacy [Nice title. It is from a book in the public domain. author gone to his reward].

[[['ows, Dhruva in Australia??]]]

Lord Caitanya is the largest Lunatic.

If one sees simple a moment, shard, chip, of one of His Pastimes, he can expand it into dozens of ecstatic books.

It is 1.03PM, Xmas eve day. It is 40-degress Farenheit here in Murfreesboro. Not too much traffic.

FMP, then 1-1/2 hours doing a Powerpoint show for the GBC College in Brazil.  Some many, other letters, nap, Boga offering (potatoes [carrot [almonds [olive oil [greek yogurt [salt and black pepper [little, little, love of Lord Nrsmhadeva]]]]]].

Now gotta rest the brain.
   Or the monkey will go insane.
In the end only the madmen will survive. Then we shall have good books!

AGTSP/... // Paoho.
We just got too, too, many Vyasa-puja offerings at one time, so we just could read the names and the Delete them.   >>>>>>     Please send them again after a few weeks.
We have answered like 28-reports and have maybe the same number more to report.

Hare Krsna.    When we are just quite and listen to the sound around us we are never sad. There is always some way to go ahead. Hare Krsna. Hare Krsna.
Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.

Srila Prabhupada has so, so, so, so, so... many things to do for Krsna. If we just stay near his feet, like monkeys gatering, seeds, and chanting Holy Names, then we will get some service!!    Prasadam!!!

How do you like the Powerpoint show?

Braja - Vande guruoh sri caranaravindam....   Do you see Goloka in this world?  Will all your friends visit you every day?

Today is shortest day of the year: 10 hours 24 minutes we calculate. Krsna is the great soul within.

Krsna

Dead tired Monkey here. Had the usual emotional shocks and intellectual challenges that make a regular day in hell. On the other hand, things have been pretty good also. We have been writing, rewriting a piece of Juvenille fiction for four days now. Maybe we are coming to the point were it is worth publishing.

We offered, steamed, carrots,potato,broccoli to Lord and shredded oranges with almonds and walnuts and raisins. For grains we offered six cups of popcorn.

Hare Krsna.

It is cold. It is dark. It is like living in a factory district.

The called from Mercedes Benz 45-minutes away and said they will send a new car to replace the loner that I have because they have sold the one I have.  Bizzare. They have not come so far. Expecting some Vyasapuja calls here at some time.

Hare Hare Hare Krsna!!!

O.K. Lets read a little and the go for a walk with NGD. Left right, Left right.  Sankirtan!!!

Hare Krsna.

DARK and COLD outside. 5.18PM. Shuffled money. Paid bills. If we want to get money from government retirement fund then we can't have more than $2000 in the bank, but we have to have at least $1500 to avoid monthy service charges. The banker looked at us and said, "How old are you?" and we said 70 in January. SHe said, "O.K. I'm going to give you a premium account for free. There is no minimum balance then". In every day there are good and bad things.

We have to duck the bad things.

Boing!

SB 6.7.16 — While Indra, the King of the demigods, thought in this way and repented in his own assembly, Bṛhaspati, the most powerful spiritual master, understood his mind. Thus he became invisible to Indra and left home, for Bṛhaspati was spiritually more powerful than King Indra.

Interesting. Become invisible. Approach Jagai and Madhai but be ready to duck.

hkhkhkhkhkhk

We talk-ed to Laksmana for 1/2 hour, then Tappan for 1/2 hour, the Abhi for 1/4 hour then went to the bank. Now we go to NgD house if we can get the car working.

Like Prahlada we just want to serve. We can always serve. Just chant HK!    So, nice!  Gauranga!  Gauranga!
