Hare Krishna!!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!! All glories to Sripad Maharaj!! All glories to Guru Maharaj HpS!!

GuruMaharaj ,please ...please...accept my humble obeisances.....at Your lotus feet....again...and again!!

ASA - Lettuce feet.

We are now full swing into the project . Banamali Prabhu and Mahabhagavad Prabhu have gone for the final inspection of the land . We shall have a nagarkirtan on Monday......the 8th May....aahhh...Astasakhis...kindly send their blessings to us Maharaj.....this will be followed by the Bhoomi Puja....sorry GuruMaharaj....I got the date wrong in my last mail. Then Bhagavat class..followed by Prasadam distribution. We are planning for Puri and Chickpeas combo.....and a sweet item.  Need Your Mercy here Guru Maharaj.

ASA - We hope Krsna sends some devotees who will be attached to the project, to reside there.

Sending some pics Maharaj.....the land , the hills at the backdrop..everything is Yours ....Kindly bless us.

We have identified a  Vaishnava Brahmin who is willing to serve in this new would-be-temple. We plan to construct a temporary hut as soon as possible....which will be used for almost all purposes...for the time being. We would like to request you to send few devotees who would join us in offering service ....this would take some time though....but again...anything is possible ...with the mercy of Guru Maharaj..

ASA - Please complete the following paragraph: Once upon a time, long, long ago in a different Yuga, a little girl went to a distant village with her Grandfather and she saw _yagna, apple trees.....and ...lots and lots of cows!!.......Now You can start laughing Guru Maharaj!

ASA - Then she learned from her father that the people there made apple cider from the apples and let it turn a little bit, like 1.5% fermented, so that it would not turn to vinegar and then drank it in the winter when everything was covered with snow and all the cows were in the barn.

She asked, "doesn't that break the four principles?"

Her grandfather said, "I don't know? They have not discovered electricity and refrigerators yet in this universe. These people are condemned to live where the land is covered with snow from their Karma.

We ferment the milk a little bit to make yogurt for the same reason.

We hear that Srila Prabhupada told the Japanese people that they could eat fish because it was an island and there was no possilibity of growing enough food, but not to eat cows, and that he said the same thing about Lord Krist Jesus multiplying the bread and fish, it was a desert and there was nothing else to eat."

He told her that they would not take any

Then they came to a Dharmashala and it was . . . [Describe the Dharmashala, the Deities, people, building...activities]

I remain,

Your helpless servant.....
