Hare Krsna Dear Maharaj,

All Glories To Srila Prabhupada!

Please Accept My Humble Obeisances!

Thank you so much for your everlasting wisdom and knowledge. I am very grateful. I always love your responses. You just know what to say.

HpS - AGTSP!!!! 🙄

Family is good!! Everyone is enjoying quarantine life. Devaki and I have been jamming guitar a lot lately. I think I am improving slowly. I can play many songs now, not perfectly, but you can understand. I just figured out how to play Jaya Jagannath today. It's so fun.

HpS - 21st Century Bhajan Band!

I am trying to improve my chanting. I did a nice Japa walk today. I think this is the best way. To productively do something while chanting. Is it okay to chant while driving?

ASA - Awk! Chant always, but the 16-rounds with the primary focus. If you chant on beads while driving, DON'T have them in your bead bag.

Directly know two devotees in accidents because of that. Hang them around your neck and then you can drop them quickly if you have to use your right hand quickly to negotiate your vehicle through a pack of wild Australian rhinocerous.

I drop my sister off to work and I chant while driving :0 I hope this is not bad. I know many devotees who do. Perhaps it is not the most focused method...

HpS - Chant, praying for ability to chant better!

I don't have a burning desire to become rich hahah. Although it'd be nice to have money to buy what I need. Although usually what I need, Krsna always provides. If I had so much money I think I could open a restaurant. Or even a temple. And perhaps I design it.. hahah. Who knows?? Or perhaps it's best I don't come in contact with too much good so that I don't lose faith or become greedy or corrupt. Although I don't think I will. But we never know...

ASA - "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely, and all great men have almost always been bad men", Lord Acton. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dalberg-Acton,_1st_Baron_Acton)

Only Krsna knows. Hopefully he will guide me to my path very soon.

HpS - We hope so. You are too good of a person to waste in less important stuff.

Enrollments are open uni and I will need to apply soon before they close for the next semester. Otherwise, to be honest, I think I can figure out a lifestyle without completing a degree. I mean I have a diploma in business already and I have enough common sense for things. But to satisfy my mother and I guess the norms of society I should study something.

HpS - Try some theater classes. Psychology 1A B, Psychology third year - Perception. Look for good teachers and take whatever classes they are offering, not important the subject.

Although, everyone tells me we need to be properly educated, with a degree. That's okay. I'll figure things out. Sorry for always whinging. Please forgive me. I am just thinking out loud.

Thank you again for always guiding me. I'm sorry for always bothering you.

Hare Krsna.

Your servant,

Lakshmi

HpS - Et al! Thank you! Our respects to:

Your Papa,

Mama,

The Bhima, The Little Sister

Uncle, Aunt... The Dhruva/Dhanevari!!
