We just finished honoring Radha Shyamasundara's Raja Bhoga, and before that returned from our daily morning Parikrama of Radha-kunda.
It is always a very intense educational experience.
How are you?
How is your Sankirtan of the Holy Names?
Looking at our DTC (Diary of a Traveling Creature) for this last fortnight we see a jumble of spiritual activities.
One of then is our daily fight with tongue, belly and body to not make Prasadam the object of our lust.
Trying to eat once a day.

PIGGY'S PARTING PEARLS
Now Sun is at November 8th, 1.21PM.
16-nice rounds done.
Arthiritis in our left wrist, right elbow and right knee.
You?
Fasting indoors for Lunar Eclipse from 9.15am to 6.15pm.
Did some Blog mail.
Does anyone want to take Sannyasa? We got this really spiffy Mantra to pass on and I guess this may be the last chance we have to do it.
Also, we want to resign as Diksa guru. Anyone want to take up that job?
Be demur but not timid!
I guess we will close our accounting year December 31st. We liked doing it end of Vaisnava year, end of Kartika, today, but GBC seems to be in Srila Prabhupada's general humor of "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's", so we close on the secular year.
Little hard to update the Disciple list but is seems to be under control.
O.K.
Tha... Tha.... That's all, Folks!
See you in Sankirtan! (Twitter [Blog])
