'are Krsna, Mates,
We just uploaded our current annotated NOI: www.jayarama.us/archives/asa-noi170326.docx, which includes a reference to: www.jayarama.us/archives/jaiva-40.docx, as as source of more explanation of the 'dasas', stage of devotional service, mentioned in Text 8
In the Sunday, Boise, SB class, 1.2.16 we noticed that even the Asuras who Krsna declares that He send to hell forever can get escape from that by the mercy of the preachers.
World Classical Literature: "She" by H. Rider Haggard. List of most read books: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_books. We want to get the KRSNA book on this list, no? What makes a book well read? Of course, one answer is that it is a good book and it is an old book. Then many people have a chance to read it for a long time. We also noticed that a book is satisfying if it doesn't just end, but rather satisfies us as a complete meal but then indicates what to read next.
Our mail is keeping pretty current. You can see the "Seattle Symposium" letter. Now we are waiting for a letter from Sattva, Abhirama Th. Das, to make the next move on "Psychology and the Sacred".
All these projects are too big for us. We are just doing our work to organize our little contribution. That's the way for everyone, no?
"Oh, my Lord, my boat is so small and your ocean is so big."
Tomorrow we have to pack: Mind, Body and Soul, for our trip to New Vraja Mandala.
On the way to NGD's ashrama we just stopped at Kamya-van, Good-will Store. It is a second hand store. We were looking for a nice briefcase for the Blue Baboon and others.
