AGTSP paoho...  Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna!

Got mean headache. 5.48PM.     Don't know why. Also right, top, rear molar is sore when chewing. Vision is always fuzzy now at a distance; but it's Radha-ranis birthday!     It is good that the body falls apart. Then the parts can be reconstituted for new service to Krsna.

Fasted 'till noon and cooked regular Kitri for Radha for Krsna. Start Meeting program with CMDD and JGD. Tweeted the link.

I think Lord Nrsmhadeva helped cook.

Did our ASA accounts. Got a lot of cash. It will go to NIOS, belongs to NIOS, was donated for NIOS.​

Talked with Tandavika, NGD, Hari-lila, Visala and Radha-Krsna-ananda Das.

For NIOS, World Classical Literature, we have been reviewing Somerset Maugham. He was maybe the highest paid writer of all times.  Interesting. Taking gold from the mixed bag. "The Magician" couldn't hold our interest. The surgeon was such and idiot he couldn't recognize subtle forces.

"The Moon and Six Pence" was not a fit place for a B'cari so Uncle Gismo reviewed it with a filter. It is incredible work of art. There is meat, alcohol and sex, but in the middle of the mode of passion some idea of transcendence.  This is where many Westerners will find transcendence. Profound (but not as profound as KRSNA book).

"On a Chinese Screen" (all these are for free at www.gutenberg.org) was pretty pure. It was a collection of short observations that Somerset Maugham made while he was traveling in China and was thinking to make into larger stories later. They are an INCREDIBLE view of the British Raja and China. "The Philosopher" contains fantastic information about Chinese machine guns of the future and "Sights of the Town" is almost more than a human can tolerate. (See Isopanisad - 11).

If we are going to save the world we have to know what it is.

YouTube: "China vs USA / Empires at War. If political analysis is part of your service to the Sankirtan movement. China capable of sinking USA aircraft carriers, destroying USA survelance satellites, but there is also an academic report on the YouTube from an Australian University, as far as we can tell, that points out that to achieve the economic and military build up, China has had to thoroughly trash its environment (poor Bhumi!), and develop an economic debt greater than all the money in all the US Banks, etc. So, there is an expectation of negative growth in the future.

These are complicated things. Arjuna had to consider them in his service, but in general, we try to be aware of the Sankirtan environment at every level and follow the dictates of Guru and Krsna, and if there is a nuclear war then Prabhupada said, "Oh, how nice. Then we would not have all these headaches for preaching. We could just sit down and chant Hare Krsna".   Of course, after a little of that we would get good intelligence from Krsna, ISKCON, and get up and preach again.

Hare Krsna.  Clap your hands and chant.
 

6.20PM.  Near sun-down. We are alone in the city!     Mail. . .

Headache is about the same.   Dangerous because can result in Brain Stroke.
