4.00PM

Time to go for a walk.

Pretty much we had 97% engagement today. The ladies made a Mexican lunch for Lord Nrsmhadeva with stuffed chile, peas-porridge, salad, baked sweat potatoe etc.

He seemed wickedly satisfied.

Is such an adventure taking Prasadam while meditating very carefully on how it will react in terms of our service.

Mexico, Mexico, Mexico - Could be the most Krsna conscious place in the world. Sunshine, Catholic Churches from the Conquistadores. Aztec blood. Here Jagannatha is a natural Deity. Radha Madan-gopal look like Mexican fairy dreams.

Flowers, fruits, fruits, flowers.

Atma ananda Das of Peru called. We talked for about 30-minutes. Very much harmony in vision. Many practical plans.

Asta sakhi Devi Dasi, Jayadeva Goswami Das, Akincana Krsna, Anirrudha, Aravinda, Jambavati .......

>>>:::::::::> Tonight 1-1/2 hours Istagosthi = Deity Worship. Arati 1-hour Sankirtan.

Hare Krsna!   We just arrived in Mexico. Packing and adjusting all the business in Murfreesboro, flying to Houston and 10-hours of intense programs in transit, then stress of travel, arrived here. Staying is Vidagdha Das apartment. He, Mataji and the two boys move out for us!!

Can walk to the Temple in 13-minutes. 108-devotees out on Sankirtan. A little rest then at 6PM we go for Arati and Class and Christmas Festival.

Hare Krsna.

We are Sick as Seven Dogs.  Externally. Internally we are pretty happy.  This pressure is catching up with us and we collapsed, rested, all day to day, until 3PM.   Ooof!   We are still weak but active now.    Thanks to all the support we get we can do something. We are learning so much about Efficient Donkey Management. Lots of letters to answer but we did a few. O.K. Six more rounds to chant and Bhakti Sastri Workshop on line tonight at 7PM!

Hare Krsna.

HAre Krsna!

We started the day with determination to call Robbie Robinson and negotiate about selling our car to him. Before we could do it someone was knocking on our door. It was Mr. Meyers who had asked about buying car two months ago. Then we talked with Robbie. He said he could have the money when we came back from Texas. Don't sell it to anyone else. Then we had Daniel put it next to the side of the house that faces the bank and put up a for sale sign. Within 2-hours five people had called, and we told them if Robbie didn't have the money on Monday we'd call them back. They said, "O.K., but don't forget".

We took the For Sale sign down and went back to our ISKCON management, Sankirtan, efforts.

We had program for Raktaka Das, B. S. Damodara Swam and our Sannyasa anniversary (32-years now). Here is the link: https://stme.in/PJyMevzGC

O.K. Take rest. Long day.

HARE KRSNA!  

HARE RAMA!!

Long, very busy, very productive day.

We Texted Yuddhiasthira Govinda Das in Delhi and he CALLED us right back. We talked very practically about organizing the NIOS visit to Delhi, 31st-4th of January.  NIOS has such opportunities to develop now. Will you help?  Push the June Symposium in Peru, magazine.

Organizing the visit to Houston. Candra mukhi DD arrives in a few hours.

So, many things.

Now is 9-minutes to sundown. Cloudy all day. 40-degree F.

Quick bath and go visit Radha Natabara and NGD and Matajis with Bh. Daniel.

oH!  Tommorrow is Odana sasti. Vyasapuja of B. S. Damodara Swami, anniversary of HpS Sannyasa, and Tirobhava Festival for Sriman Raktaka Das. Maybe we do online program tommorrow night. Watch for Tweet, and here.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!

AGTSP.   paoho & bw....   5.57PM.     We are seeing more and more that we are neither demons nor Rupa Goswami.  We may have to sleep more than perfect arrangment. We may have to eat more pnut butter and sugar than is ideal. We may have to read more historical literature than is connected to our service, but when the day is in the mode of goodness, when we have your association, then we get some practical intelligence about how to deal with our physical, social, and personal environment and join this Sankirtan movement.

I think all we can do is to try to produce some literature like the KRSNA book and the VDM for the modern man.

Many people can't read these directly so we have to put it in their language.

Every cowherd boy has thousands of cows under his personal protection. Reader!  You should consider having thousands of disciples.

=========

No news from Pune!!  When shall we go there?

Talked with Rama-giri-dhari Das for like  1-1/2 hours yesterday after like two weeks of no talks!  Calendar 90% fixed for India.    Also, regular conversations with Abhirama Thakura Das about Solaris and the Psychology and the Sacred 2017 program.

April - Brazil - Argentina

June Seattle, Peru, Chile

But at first look the tickets are a little expensive. We keep looking.

Dark, Dark, Dark  [[[[[[[[[[depressive]]]]]]]] outside.  Now we take bath and go to NGD house for program.

Mail answered up to three days ago.

AS LONG AS WE ARE CHANTING HARE KRSNA, LORD CAITANYA CAN USE US.
