little, little line of beads,
he twirls them, kneads them,
they are seeds.

wash his feet in cane juice,
briming crispy hot,
then yogurt/ghee/milk, water,
at last it's cool, not hot.

at his feet fight maya,
her weapons heat and cold,
always call, 'sri hara!',
you never will grow old.

if you can breath, you can chant
if you can breath, you can chant

'x'[if you can chant, you can dance]~

Hare Krsna! Hare Rama!

All actors die in this drama!

We erased all the letters older than 3-weeks ago, so write again. We looked at the title and author of each one. Many of authors we personally met in India et al after they wrote.

If we make no compromises with our body, giving up pure devotional service, then we really might die at any day. That's O.K. Even to think there are days is a kind of joke. Days, years, these are just things to enchance the present moment.

Lots of work for the Ministry, local building and automobile scrubbing and scratching too. Today. Six calls with Rama-giridhari Das. Very lot of work for NIOS-Goloka Foundation setting up Board of Directors Meeting.

Now it is 6.47PM. Dark outside. [Spooky!]

Regular Friday home program starts at NGD ashrama at 7.30PM, but first ride we can get will be at 7.45PM [with Tandavika Das].

Do these words stimulate the lotus feet of His Divine Grace?
Upon that, that's all we need to concentrate.

There is no past nor future true.
They exist but only as they improve your World View.

Add trees and flowers to the trysting bower.
Add memories and plans to the present hour.

BUILD A BETTER GOLOKA

=============================

What do you see?
Our Japa beads.

Which one of them is the most beautiful?
Does Her smile to Vraja's forests lead?

There the deer and monkeys prance.
There Radha and Krsna and the Gopis dance.

Radha has so many qualities.
She is more concerned with Her friends welfare,
Than Her own intense, personal care.

Krsna and the boys wear ankle bells.
They dance and run and strike the Earth,
She shakes and rolls with alarming mirth.

Shut down the football, all the teams of TV,
With all of their plays,
Vraja lila has the best sports, in both the nights and the days.

.TWENTY-FOUR HOURS/DAY.

Hare Krsna.

5.20PM. The sun is going down. It is getting dark. We get depressed this time of day, year. You also?   There are no leaves on the trees. We have not really seen one human being all day. It is pretty good. The alarm went off at 1.15AM. We got up  and turned it off and then dozed again until 2.48AM. Then we jumped into Japa, Fool Mourning Program.

Then we Cut, Scanned, Uploaded the TPP-CB and sent the Link to CMDD and Patraka Das. They asked for it.  We cooked pop-corn in ghee with walnuts for Lord Nrsmha deva's breakfast and then baked two potatoes for His lunch. Seems to be going pretty well.

We feel depressed alone in our mind and stomach many times but when we try to chant externally we become quite animated. It is strange. Seems to indicate a real purification deeper than the mind and body.

Booked the ticket to Boise: 1st June. It was like $182.80 today and would have been $235 tomorrow and a two hour longer flight.

Got the Auto Sales papers off with Rufus to Tandavika Das and he called asking which Docs to sign. I told him, but now he just called and said he is on the road (45-minute drive) to deliver them. That's strange. Maybe he wants a little Vaisnava association. We can do some Kirtan for Radha Natabara maybe.

We have 25GB to use within three days so we looked at what's on the YouTube. We found Radhikas Sad Sandarba lectures from the Silicon Valley from a long time ago and listened for three hours. Of course, we sped it up to 2x speed and still could have gone faster. Was very enlightening.

We've answered all the letters older than three days and one more even older. We are catching up. Now we'll do some Japa and get a USB drive to mail the "LOB" movie by Oscar to Giridhari Swami in Hong Kong.

Lot of other things happening. We chant Hare Krsna in the middle of it all. We will go from Brahman to Paramatma to Bhagavan.

You too?

Kapi Dhvaja 27(Mo)

Hare Krsna, Hare Rama.

Has you Donkey died and has gone to heaven? But still you should write to the Blog of life after death, whether in the cooler or in the oven.

How are you!?     It is 1.23PM.   We are sitting on our desk. Looking out at Medcial Center Parkway. 40-White, Black, Grey or Red cars go by every minute.  We are getting a little bit more regulated schedule. Unless we get our senses in the mode of pure goodness we will never realize Vasudeva.

The 'Kapi Dhvaja' went, is posted at the Web site.

We bought our Spain ticket 3-12 April.

Great gods and goddesses, yogis and yoginis et al are working on the calendar.

We have nine rounds done.  We are still low on energy but it is building back up.

Every night we go to see NGD and now Rama-giri-dhari Das is in Houston.

O.K. Bath and Gayatri.

We are answering the mail little faster now.

                                         '0'ink~

!!! Krsna loves to play !!!    Do you love to play?

Hare Krsna.

Two classes, one home program, one formal consultation, 25-short conversations. Muscle cramps in chest and back which are gone now.

Reading Vrndavana Dhama Mahimamrta.

CONCLUSION - Live on fruit, milk,, nuts for the next few days and chant Hare Krsna.

Take elusive shelter of Sri Guru Carana Padma and Hari Nama, live or die.

HAre Krsna. Been here three days. Body a lot recovered and our intellect seems very clear and focused on serving Krsna. Now we are headed for an evening program at Ksiti kapoors home in 17-minutes.
