Sarva gattah

Due to Mumbai terrorist attacks, our ISKCON temple has tightened the security. Many new security measures were applied. Also, today Guru Maharaja had difficulties due to the secretions. When he feels like coughing, he is trying hard but is still he is not able to cough them out through his mouth. So the nurses had to do suction. Right after the suction he became very tired. <o:p></o:p> One of it is temple vehicles are not allowed to go out of the temple premises and outside vehicles also cannot enter inside the temple. <o:p></o:p> Temple security officer told us, Mumbai is quiet today because many people are afraid to come out. So do not take risk. <o:p></o:p> Due to this uncertainty, we told one mataji who is staying next to the hospital to prepare prasadam for Guru Maharaja. Marici Prabhu, Nitai Prasad Prabhu, Srivas Pran Prabhu and I still went ahead to the hospital by taxi. <o:p></o:p> Today we reached the hospital within 20 minutes time. Streets are very quiet. <o:p></o:p> Many shops are closed. Even the hospital was very quiet. Not many people during the visiting hours. Usually it looks like a bazaar. Security at the Hinduja Hospital was tightened up too. <o:p></o:p> When we went into ICCU, Guru Maharaja had just finished his lunch and was resting on the chair. <o:p></o:p> He looked very tired. 20 minutes later he was put on the bed for resting. He rested till 5.30pm. When he woke up he asked for herbal tea and kiwi fruits. He took one and a half kiwi fruit and few sips of camomile herbal tea. <o:p></o:p> Today Guru Maharaja had difficulties due to the secretions. When he feels like coughing, he is trying hard but is still he is not able to cough them out through his mouth. So the nurses had to do suction. Right after the suction he became very tired. <o:p></o:p> JPS Servants <o:p></o:p> Friday, November 28 - Report: <o:p></o:p> 28-Nov-08, Report <o:p></o:p> HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: <o:p></o:p> Maharaja's consciousness is the same- normal.

This message is posted on the url: <o:p></o:p> http://www.haridesign.com.br/guru_ma...u_maharaj.html <o:p></o:p> The transcription of the above message is: <o:p></o:p> "Hello. Jayapataka Swami here. Hello. Hello. Hare Krsna! 30 days. I am so tired. Recuperating. Doctor said today, I am out of danger. GAURANGA!! <o:p></o:p> Your humble servant, <o:p></o:p> Ratnavali dd <o:p></o:p> Friday, November 28 - Report from HG Mahavaraha Prabhu: <o:p></o:p> 27th Nov 2008 Afternoon Shift 2pm - 7pm <o:p></o:p> I was on the afternoon shift today. <o:p></o:p> Friday, November 28 - Report from HG Mahavaraha Prabhu: <o:p></o:p> 26th Nov 2008 - Morning Shift 6 am - 2 pm <o:p></o:p> 7am: I went into the ICCU to see Guru Maharaja. He looked very fresh with clean shaven face and was relaxing on his bed. When he saw me next to him, he asked, "Were you here since last night?" I said, "No. Bhadra Balaram Prabhu was here and I just came in for my morning shift." <o:p></o:p> I called Srivas Pran Prabhu to come in and read from Caitanya Caritamrta for Guru Maharaja. Guru Maharaja is still without the speech valve. Sometimes his voice is not audible and sometimes it is fairly audible. <o:p></o:p> 8am: Dr. Shiromani and Dr. Acyutananda went in to see Guru Maharaja. Dr. Shiromani was showing Guru Maharaja all the get-well cards she had received. As you all know from the yesterday's report Guru Maharaja was told HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja was supposed to come and visit him but he didn't make it because he was not feeling well. <o:p></o:p> Dr. Acyutananda is an official doctor who looks after Maharaja's health. So this morning Guru Maharaja asked Dr. Acyutananda Prabhu, "How is Maharaja's health?" Dr. Acyutananda commented on HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja's health. He then continued, <o:p></o:p> "Today is HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja's Tithi Vyasa puja. But he has cancelled the vyasa puja celebration because of your health condition." Guru Maharaja with his eyes wide open said, <o:p></o:p> "He should celebrate it. It is one day per year for the disciples." Dr. Shiromani immediately passed on this message to Dr. Madhavananda at Bhaktivedanta Hospital. Guru Maharaja also commented about some defects on his eyesight. Dr. Shiromani said she will inform the ophthalmologist regarding this. <o:p></o:p> 8.30am: We fed Guru Maharaja with 3 mashed kiwi fruits mixed with almond powders. He ate all of them. <o:p></o:p> 9.15am: Dr. Ashok came in for his routine check up. He told Guru Maharaja, "You are doing too good. "Guru Maharaja asked Dr. Ashok, "How are you doctor?" Dr. Ashok said, "Oh I am fine." <o:p></o:p> 10am: While I was chanting in the relative's waiting room, Dr. Shiromani said the physiotherapist is calling you to come in. When I went in, the physiotherapist explained to me that today for the first time they are going to make Guru Maharaja to sit on the bed with legs hanging down without any support on the back to lean. <o:p></o:p> Two nurses, Miss Priya and Miss Vanita, the physiotherapist and myself lifted Guru Maharaja. We made him to sit on the bed. Although it was very difficult to lift him up I noticed that Guru Maharaja has lost his weight. Muscles below his both upper part of the arms was hanging down. <o:p></o:p> The physiotherapist was addressing Guru Maharaja, "Guru Maharaj! Guru Maharaj! Keep your head straight up and sit straight." Guru Maharaja tried but he kept falling sideward and was not able to sit on his own without the support for the back. I realised how weak his body is. <o:p></o:p> The bed was lowered down to help Guru Maharaja put his feet on the floor. Physiotherapist told Guru Maharaja to put his feet firm on the floor and hold the side railings of the bed. Even then Guru Maharaja kept falling sideward. Then 2 male attendants came in to help holding Guru Maharaja. <o:p></o:p> The physiotherapist also introduced few other therapies today especially to strengthen Guru Maharaja's arms. She said when Guru Maharaja's arms become strong enough then he will be given a walker to practice walking. <o:p></o:p> Then I noticed Guru Maharaja's sikha was matted and tangled because of his constantly lying on the bed. We combed his sikha only once or twice in the last 32 days of him being in the hospital. <o:p></o:p> I told Miss Priya that we should comb the sikha to make it look neat. I brought Guru Maharaja's comb and hair oil. While the male attendants were holding Guru Maharaja I started applying oil on Guru Maharaja's hair. I did it very gently. Miss Priya and Miss Vanita became uncomfortable. <o:p></o:p> They told me, "We can only hold him on this position for 10 minutes and you have to finish combing his hairs by then." <o:p></o:p> Two minutes later one of them grabbed the comb from my hand and the other one brought a bigger comb-to-comb Guru Maharaja's sikha. I was applying oil wherever needed especially on the matted part meanwhile they kept combing. I told them try not to loose a single hair. Guru Maharaja heard what I was saying, he said, "Dont cut my sikha." <o:p></o:p> I explained to Guru Maharaja about the condition of his sikha hairs and what are we trying to do for him. He nodded yes. At one point, while they were combing, Guru Maharaja shouted, "Ahh! Uhh!" I told the nurses, "Careful! Comb slowly!" Both the Marathi nurses with smile on their face asked Guru Maharaja, "Swamiji, paining, no? Paining, no?" <o:p></o:p> They were very personal and caring towards Guru Maharaja. Most of these nurses in ICCU are very caring and always address Guru Maharaja as 'Guru Maharaj' and 'Swamiji'. In twenty minutes we finished working on his sikha. Though we lost some of his hairs they did a good job. <o:p></o:p> His hair was tied and plaited (braided). I was explaining to Guru Maharaja of what they were doing to his sikha. He said, "Roll it up and put band." I said we are doing that. After that Guru Maharaja was put back into his original position on the bed but he was asking the nurses to put him on the chair. They did that after 15 minutes. <o:p></o:p> 11am: Guru Maharaja was asking for water since he was feeling very thirsty. He asked for Tata Himlayan water. His latest favorite brand. Then I fed breakfast for him. While I was feeding breakfast to Guru Maharaja, Marici Prabhu came in to see Guru Maharaja. <o:p></o:p> Guru Maharaja asked him how he was and about his South American Tour. Marici Prabhu explained to Guru Maharaja about his tour to South America. Even with this kind of health conditions Guru Maharaja's interaction with Marici Prabhu appeared to be normal. Later, ophthalmologist came in to check Guru Maharaja. <o:p></o:p> They advised Guru Maharaja to blink his eyes very often to avoid dryness which can cause infection. Right now he is not able to do that because of weak muscles. <o:p></o:p> Then Marici Prabhu was showing about the get-well painting sent from Santiago, Chile. Then a collection of beautiful get-well cards put together in a single folder from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. They were very attractive. <o:p></o:p> 2.30pm - Lunch was served. All the food items were cooked soft to suit according to Guru Maharaja's diet. <o:p></o:p> We served basmati rice, dhal, spinach sabji, beans, etc. We mixed them well and was feeding him little by little by spoon. Guru Maharaja commented prasadam was great. At the end Marici asked him what else he wanted. Guru Maharaja said, "cake" Of course jokingly! <o:p></o:p> Yours in the service of Guru Maharaja, <o:p></o:p> JPS servants <o:p></o:p> Friday, November 28 - Report from HG Marici Prabhu: <o:p></o:p> 26-Nov-08 <o:p></o:p> Dear Devotees, <o:p></o:p> Please accept my humble obeisance’s. All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. <o:p></o:p> This is small a report of my association with Gurudeva today. <o:p></o:p> I arrived at the Hinduja Hospital at 11am and took about one hour of waiting outside the hospital to be able to get the pass. <o:p></o:p> When I entered into the ICCU room Guru Maharaja called me and I noticed a natural happy expression on His face. <o:p></o:p> He asked me, "How are you? How was your trip to South America?" I started relating about our tour to Chile and Argentina and I was amazed how Gurudeva interacted so well during the conversation. Often he asked me a few technical questions about the devotees in Santiago, Chile and also about the farm of Mukunda Hari prabhu. <o:p></o:p> Guru Maharaja has many of his facial muscles and nerves, which are not working properly. For instance he has modulation difficulties to pronounce certain syllables especially those with B, P and O. <o:p></o:p> Also there are certain weaknesses on the muscles of his eyes facing difficulties to move them right or left but now he can move nicely his eyes up and down. Like that, he is experiencing the same difficulties in other different parts of his body but doctors are very positive and happy about Gurudeva because every single day they can see a significant progress. <o:p></o:p> For instance, just a few days ago, Guru Maharaja started eating just 1 spoon of food a day and today I had a chance to feed him oats at 11:30am, lunch at 2pm and dinner at 8PM and he ate so well like any other normal person which is a very good progress. I was feeding him like feeding a baby. <o:p></o:p> In today's lunch Guru Maharaja particularly liked the sabji with vegetables, peas, tomatoes, etc.and asked me who cook it? It was done by Vasudeva prabhu. Everyday he is cooking prasadam for Gurudeva with a team of Mayapur devotees according to the prescriptions given by the doctors. He also liked very much the spinach subjee. Also asked which kind of rice he uses (basmati). <o:p></o:p> I helped Guru Maharaja to do some exercise moving his hands, arms, feet and legs and he did well. The doctor said it is a good exercise for Guru Maharaja to talk so I made him to repeat Gauranga and the full Pancatatva mantra. His speech is getting better. At different times of the day I asked him to speak more. <o:p></o:p> I told Guru Maharaja that today was Ekanath Gaura prabhu's birthday. He was happy to know and he wanted to know where he was and what time he would come. Then we made a "secret plan". <o:p></o:p> When Ekanath came at 8pm Guru Maharaja pointed to him something hidden by the window. It took about 2 minutes for Ekanath to understand and he saw a surprise gift that Guru Maharaja had for him. He opened the gift and it was a Maha Cake from Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha Rasabihari and everybody was so happy! <o:p></o:p> Some short stories from today: <o:p></o:p> I asked Guru Maharaja who did for you this beautiful tilak? Guru Maharaja reply: "Bhadra Balaram". Where is Bhadra Balaram? What time he will come?" (he is a very dear disciple of Gurudeva) <o:p></o:p> I brought 2 anti stress Chinese metal balls for Guru Maharaja to exercise his hands. It is a kind of physiotherapy work and he liked them but he needed a lot of my help to be able to use them. <o:p></o:p> I showed to Guru Maharaja a beautiful drawing that a Mataji from Chile did for Him. He was so happy with it! (Please see the drawing, which is attached with this text). I described the whole drawing to Him. <o:p></o:p> Guru Maharaja is in the hospital bed and his walking stick is hidden bellow his pillow, and I described each of those devotees depicted on the drawing (Ekanath, Atmananda, Sarva Sakti, Divya Priya, Seva Swarupa, Maha Varaha and myself) and he was so happy and started calling the nurses and requested me to show the drawing to them. <o:p></o:p> He asked me who did it? It is Bhaktin Monica from Chile. Thank you Monica to give Gurudeva a few minutes of happiness! <o:p></o:p> Gurudeva was very happy to see Ikshvaku prabhu from Ecuador. He lives in Perth, Australia and came here to serve Guru Maharaja for a week. <o:p></o:p> Tusti Mohan Krsna das was with Guru Maharaja for 40 minutes. He was amazed of Guru Maharaja's capacity to remember. What more impacted him was when he arrived Guru Maharaja immediately recognized him and asked him, "You are still here? I thought you left to Mayapur." <o:p></o:p> Guru Maharaja was informed 2 days before that Tusti Mohan Krsna das was going to represent him for the world interfaith conference held at Sri Mayapur Dham till December 6th. He says that Guru Maharaja's sugar level was tested by a nurse and it was perfect (in 120). <o:p></o:p> I told Gurudeva that devotees from Safari sent me a lot of lovely letters and tomorrow I will read them to Him. I also got very nice letters for him from many other devotees and well-wishers from around the world. <o:p></o:p> Today it was the first day that doctors declared that Guru Maharaja is "out of danger". They also say that latest by early next week Guru Maharaja will be transfered out of the ICCU to a private room. <o:p></o:p> 10pm I was leaving the hospital and Guru Maharaja called me and he held my hand saying, "I want you to send a message to the web. Please request the devotees to pray so I will be able to talk and walk so I can be able to preach." So please I beg all the Vaishnava community to please pray to the Lord to fulfill this humble desire of Gurudeva, Srila Jayapataka Swami. <o:p></o:p> Thank you. <o:p></o:p> Your servant, <o:p></o:p> Marici das <o:p> </o:p><o:p>Jayapataka Maharaja's Spiritual Master and merciful guide who JPM considers as Jagat Guru </o:p>

Posted: November 27, 2008, 12:25 PM by Chris Boutet World Late Wednesday evening, roughly two dozen militants armed with assault rifles and grenades and carrying backpacks full of ammunition came ashore in a rubber dinghy and immediately set about cutting a swath of destruction through the heart of Mumbai's financial and tourist districts. They stole a vehicle and sprayed passerby with bullets en route to a series of coordinated attacks on as many as 10 strategic targets, including the city's largest train station, hospitals, a bustling tourist cafe and two of Mumbai's most popular luxury hotels. Almost 24 hours laters, 125 people are dead and more than 300 injured, and the Indian army has engaged the militants in the Taj hotel and elsewhere in an attempt to save the untold numbers of people trapped or taken hostage inside. As the carnage unfolded, a relatively unknown terrorist group calling themselves the "Deccan Mujahideen" claimed responsibility. "Muslims in India should not be persecuted. We love this as our country but when our mothers and sisters were being killed, where was everybody?" a militant holed inside the Oberoi hotel told Indian television via telephone. "Release all the mujahideens, and Muslims living in India should not be troubled." So who are the the low fie barbaraian Muslim dogs known as 'Deccan Mujahideen? Security analysts and intelligence experts worldwide have been scrambling in the wake of the Mumbai attacks to determine if the heretofore unknown group is affiliated with an existing group or if they are indeed new. The group's Wikipedia page (yes, they already have a Wikipedia page; the Internet moves fast) lays out the etymology of their name as such: Deccan refers to the Deccan Plateau in southern India which encompasses the states of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. The name is an anglicised form of the Prakrit word dakkhin, itself derived from the Sanskrit word dakṣiṇa-, meaning 'South' or 'The South'. Mujahideen in Arabic literally means "strugglers". However, some terrorist groups, such as Al-Qaeda, carry out terrorist acts under the rubric of "Jihad," meaning "struggle." But whether the group Deccan Mujahideen is local or foreign, a new group or operating under an assumed name, the undeniable fact is that it is comprised of the Islamic men .

You understanding greatly inspire me to tell my deep supressed secrets. As the 12th initiated disciple of Prabhupada in meathead paradise (Australia) four years before you were born. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:" /><o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Your understanding is brilliant and you are way more advanced than so many Prabhupada disciples including me. Ramai Swami who at one point I greatly loved (wanted to serve) but he and the fools like Subabhati, treated me so coldly impersonally that I want to kill myself, but instead I JUST Walked AWAY. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Frankly l loved originally loved Ranai Swami in a devotional way, but to him I was just porn and a object to be patronized and treated as a no body that greatly effected my self esteem <o:p></o:p> Abimanu dasa and Sri Prahlad I greatly admired and even though we did some of the most well known preaching on Australian Television, radio and newspapers, my mental illness, low self esteem and patronizing treatment fro devotee like RAMAI, and Sabo, did not really help. <o:p></o:p> Here I was in charge of a bunch of Gurukuli kids and just allowed free rain. <o:p></o:p> They all new my short comings, but still allowed things to go on saying ‘no-one can do what you do’ <o:p></o:p> What I’m about to write here is tho first time I have faced something that happened to me in 1972, Woke up one mooring and an American devote, very well known, was orally interfering with me. It freaked me out and only through recent psychiatric therapy was I able to face that I had considered an advanced devotee personal servant of Prabhupada to do such a thing. <o:p></o:p> Psychologically this greatly scared me and I only told one devotee, whom this American devotee had also did the same thing to, D sometime later committed suicide due to being so embarrassed about what had happened. I was 18 (joined at 17) at the time and D***** was only 15, Prabhupada’s youngest initiate. <o:p></o:p> Now you can all laugh at my honesty that screwed my devotional life up with confusion – we were only kids back then

Maharaja is recovering well. He has been off the ventilator for 72 hours now.

Maharaja is recovering well. He has been off the ventilator for 72 hours now. He is fully conscious and alert. Monday, November 24 - Evening Report:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:" /> HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: Maharaja is recovering well. He has been off the ventilator for 72 hours now. He is fully conscious and alert. Maharaja will be shifted out of the ICU into the ward in the next few days. You may have read that he would be shifted out in the afternoon or tomorrow, but that is not the fact. Additional note by Dr. Shiromani devi dasi: In the morning, the neurologist Dr. P.P. Ashok merely suggested shifting Maharaja out of the ICU but this news was not put out by the Bhaktivedanta doctors because the decision to shift him out of the ICU had to be made by the intensivist Dr Hegde. In the afternoon when Dr. Hegde came, he did not agree to shift Maharaja out of the ICU today, but in the next few days. To send get well cards for Guru Maharaja: If anyone interested to send artistic and devotional get well cards for Guru Maharaja, Do not send them by email as it would be difficult to get them printed.

Once or twice in a day Guru Maharaja is made to sit on a special sofa. At 4.45 pm we woke up Guru Maharaja and prepared 3 pieces of mashed kiwi fruits to feed Guru Maharaja. Guru Maharaja ate all of them. I asked him if he wanted more. Guru Maharaja shook his head to say no. After the fruit feeding, we gave him physiotherapy massage on all the joints of Guru Maharaja's legs and hands. This was taught to us by the Bhaktivedanta Hospital doctors. We are regularly do it twice a day besides the physiotherapy doctors from the Hinduja Hospital. After the physiotherapy massage, I read 6 get well letters to Guru Maharaja.

Windows 666 Bill Gates has just died, and ascends only as far as the Pearly Gates in the Heavenly subtle material planets only to be stopped by who he thinks is God, but is really a demigod or who represents Maha Vishnu the creator of just the material world (an expansion of the Supreme God Krsna) The demigod Yamaraj immediately recognizes him and says to him "Bill Gates, you're a great man. I shall give you a choice of either heaven or hell." Bill Gates tells Yamaraj that he would like to see both before making a decision. So lord Yamaraj takes Bill Gates down to Hell, where there are beautiful, nubile attractive damsels, perfect weather, free nectar drinks, and the illusion of eternal happiness. "That doesn't seem so bad," says Gates. "Let's see Heaven now." Yamaraj, the lord of death and Gates go to Heaven, which seems to be just a bunch of sexed-uped, crusty angels flying around intoxicated ny the illusin of intense pleasure. "I've made my decision," says Gates. "I choose Hell." Six months later, Yamaraj goes down to Hell to check on him and finds him hanging above a pit of fire with ugly deformed yamadutas tearing out his intestines. Gates screams in complete terror "What has happened to all the beautiful damsels and the sun and the fun?" "Oh, that," Yamaraj replies. "That was just the demo."

After thirty days Jayapataka Maharaj speaks for the first time!! 'How many times have we heard, 'Well, saving the fallen souls is up to Krishna?' Actually, it is NOT up to Krishna to save the most fallen souls of Kali-yuga and give them chances to attain devotional attachment and service to the devotees of Lord Krishna Caitanya Maha Prabhu, it is up to his selfless pure non judgemental prideless non materialistic devotees like Srila Prabhupada to bring the forgetful souls (by force if need be if they are initiated) Back Home Back to Godhead (Goloka). Krishna does not personally save anyone to begin with, His Pure devotees do that. This is a very important realization and I thank JPM for his kind blessings on me' - Gauragopala dasa ACBSP Saturday, November 22 - Report from HG Maha Varaha Prabhu: 22nd Nov 2008 - Morning Shift 6am to 2pm HG Revati Raman Prabhu and myself was on morning duty today. Dr. Shiromani mataji from the Bhaktivedanta Hospital told us that GM (Guru Maharaj) has been breathing without the ventilator support for the last 24 hours. He was exhausted. At 8am doctor asked GM whether he needs ventilator support. GM said, "No." Doctor asked him again, "Are you ok?" GM replied,"OK." Though he was exhausted due to breathing for such a long hours he was very determined and maintained his will power which he always does. He strongly wanted to carry on breathing without the support of ventilator. Last evening GM spoke for the first time with the help of speech valve. But this morning he spoke the above mentioned two words 'No & Ok' without the speech valve. Though it was not so clear but could be understood at close range. At 9.30am before we fed breakfast for GM the nurses did suction of secretions which was accumulated inside in the trachea through a tube. This is quite a painful and a tiring process. GM became more tired after that. His face turned reddish with tears welling up in his eyes. Then HG Revati Raman Prabhu started feeding breakfast (oats) to GM. While he was feeding Dr. Ashok came for his morning routine check up. Dr. Ashok asked GM, "Are you ok?" GM stretched out his tongue little longer asking to feed him more. Dr. Ashok with smile on his face said, "Hmmm! Good! Good!" At 10am HG Janmasthami Prabhu, the Chairman of MIHE visited GM. At 12.30 in the afternoon when we were getting ready to feed lunch for GM, HH Devamrita Swami Maharaja came to visit GM. HH Devamrita Swami Maharaja said, "Maharaja Thank you for staying with us." GM replied, "Thank you!" Then GM started to speak more to maharaja but rest of the words could not be heard. Then Dr. Hegde came for his routine check up. After the routine check up HG Revati Raman Prabhu fed lunch for GM. After the lunch and with the permission of Dr. Hegde the nurses fixed speech valve for GM. Following is the summary of the conversation that took place between HH Devamrita Swami Maharaja (DMS) and GM after the speech valve was fixed. Conversation was noted by HG Revati Raman Prabhu. DMS: Maharaja, thank you for staying with us. I came directly from the airport to see you. JPS (Jayapataka Swami): Thank you for coming. How are you? DMS: I am doing fine, you are also doing fine. JPS: I don't know how long the Lord will keep me here. DMS: Your breathing is so nice like sankirtana, Mahaprabhu's sankirtana. Recover nicely and perfectly, no hurry. JPS: Nodded his head. DMS: You should come out fast and dance in front of Their Lordships Radha Madhava and Panca Tattva though no doubt you are already doing that in your heart. This is a best time for you to stay in Mayapur and write commentary on sastras. JPS: Any idea? DMS: Caitanya Bhagavata. You know Bengali, translate and comment according to modern people. Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswathi Thakur's commentary is too technical and modern people do not understand. You should write in the line of Brihad Bhagavatamrta by Gopiparanadhana Prabhu. Till now I haven't read Caitanya Bhagavata, only Caitanya Caritamrta, the moment you complete I will read your Caitanya Bhagavata. JPS: How long you will stay? DMS: Four Days End of the conversation GM's speech valve was removed after the conversation. Reading reports like this may give a picture that GM is doing very well. But please keep in mind that GM is not out of danger hundred percent and he is gradually coming out of it. According to doctors, GM is in crucial point of recovery, coming out of the ventilator. He still has a long way to go for full recovery and by Lord Krishna's mercy he will acheive that. So please keep praying until GM recovers completely. Yours in the service of GM, JPS Servants Saturday, November 22 - Report from HG Ekanath Gaura Prabhu: 21st Nov 2008 Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. First of all, I would like to offer my most respectful obeisances to our very beloved GM, whose compassion has no limit. Who although was in a extreme difficult situation, his breathing was reduced to minimum, his body was totally wiped out, he wanted to speak and interact with the devotees as he always does. I want to offer my most deep obeisances to him, who never stops preaching even when he is tired, sick, thirsty, etc!!! 2:40 pm: As we arrived at the hospital, we asked Shiromani mataji about GM's condition. She said that GM is without the ventilator since morning time. We went inside the ICCU to see GM. He was very tired, but he was better than other times when ventilator was switched off. We asked the nurses to remove his socks and machine for massaging his legs. His feet were totally dry and therefore we applied the cream to his feet. GM wanted to tell us something but we told him to keep his energy saved for breathing. GM was hungry. I asked the nurses if we could feed him. They asked me if I received the permission to give our temple food and I said yes. HG Nitai Prasad prabhu, the General Manager of Sridham Mayapur was with us. We explained to him how to feed Guru Maharaja and he fed Guru Maharaja nicely. GM took 14 spoons of soup and 3 pieces of dhosas. Around 4 pm, HH Bhakti Purusottama Swami Maharaja, HG Braja Hari prabhu came to the hospital. HH Bhakti Purusottama Swami Maharaja brought many wonderful things from Jagannath Puri. He had Maha oil which the priests use to massage on the transcendental body of Lord Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra Devi when they get sick after Snana yatra pastime. He also brought Caranamrta, camphor, sandalwood paste, a piece of kusa grass that is used to bless the Lord and wish Him good luck, even he got a piece of Lord's Body (from Nava-kalevaram -- the festive procedure of changing Lord Jagannatha's body), and of course Jagannath Maha Prasad which has been taken from the Lord's plate directly. For many, many years, Maharaja had not gone inside the temple! They went inside the ICCU to see Guru Maharaja. After 5 min, HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja came and the nurses placed a special device for enabling GM to talk. This transcendental conversation is available on the web and the link has been sent on a separate text. I just want to mention it was a very sweet pastime to see. The devotees were very affectionate, gave a massage to GM, chanted for him and encouraged him. In front of GM one old person was almost dying. During the sweet kirtan of HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja the old person passed away. The kirtan was meant for GM, but everyone got the benefit. What a great fortune!!! After everyone left, GM was wiped out. They made him to sit on a sofa to increase his blood circulation, and then they put him to sleep. Many of you might have already heard GM's conversation. His voice is not so audible. I mean to say he was exhausted just from breathing. I know many of you are already praying, but we need to increase the prayers to get GM out of the ventilator. One devotee told me, he prayed during the Damodara month as follows: ¨ My dear Mother Yasoda, Krishna might not listen to my prayer, but you are his mother. He will listen to you. So kindly tell him to help my GM to come out of the ventilator." Please keep praying. GM wants to go to Mayapur. Your servants, JPS caregivers Saturday, November 22 - Guru Mukha Padma Vakya: recorded conversation on 21-Nov-08: Dear Devotees, Hare Krsna. Please accept my most humble obeisances.

RNS: Every holy place that we went, we were also at Govardhan parikrama, we were all praying for you. All thousands and thousands of devotees we were in Vrndavan meditating on our love and gratitude to you and praying to Sri Radha and Krsna to help you to recover. All over the world the devotees are united in doing kirtan and praying for your good health. It was beautiful before each evening lecture all the 4000 devotees were together and we would began by hearing an update and the report of your health condition and then we would speak about you and then we would all take some minutes in prayer for you and kirtan for you. It is beautiful to see how much devotees love you from their heart and hearts with such deep gratitude for your compassion and a lifetime of devotional service. Even non devotee doctors and nurses are developing faith by seeing how miraculuosly Krsna is healing you. Even in this condition you are preaching, uniting devotees hearts, giving people faith. There is nothing that can be done to keep you from being an empowered preacher. You're seriously affecting devotees hearts. It brings us joy to see this. Especially brings us joy to see how miraculuosly you are recovering. RNS and devotees: Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare / Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. JPS: Hare Krsna.

Your humble servant, Ratnavali dd Saturday, November 22 - Report from HG Maha Varaha Prabhu: 20-Nov-08 I was on a night shift today with Madhava Kanta Prabhu. When we reached the hospital, Dr.Sagar from the Bhaktivedanta Hospital told us that GM is sleeping now as he is little tired of breathing on his own from 11.30am. I asked Dr.Sagar to find out if it is possible to feed GM now. He said we can feed GM as soon as he wakes up. 30 minutes later GM woke up. I went inside the ICCU and asked him whether he would like to have his dinner now? GM didn't reply anything. The nurses who were beside GM asked him the same question; still we didn't get any reply. I told GM that he must eat something so that he can build up his strength to walk, speak etc. At around 9pm I and Madhava Kanta Prabhu fed GM with chickpea and vegetable mixed soup. He ate about 8 spoons. At one point he started to cough and then he stopped taking the prasadam. Dr.Anamika who was on duty insisted GM to eat more. GM shook his head in disagreement. Finally I gave some water for him to drink. After drinking the water he was trying to say something. But Doctor told him to relax since he is breathing without the support of ventilator. GM fell asleep 20 minutes later. I went inside the ICCU at 5am to check GM's condition. The nurse told me GM is back on ventilator at 4.15am. I rubbed his hand gently and he opened his eye. I put Sri Sri Radha Madhava picture in front him for his morning darshan. After 10 seconds he closed his eyes. I understood that he is exhausted of breathing on his own the whole night. Saturday, November 22 - Morning Report: HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: Maharaja has been off the ventilator for 24 hrs. He's maintaining oxygen saturation. Doctors are continuing to give encouraging reports. The oral feeds are going on. Please continue to pray intensely.

Yours in the service of GM, JPS Servants Saturday, November 22 - Report from HG Ekanath Gaura Prabhu: 21st Nov 2008 Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. First of all, I would like to offer my most respectful obeisances to our very beloved GM, whose compassion has no limit. Who although was in a extreme difficult situation, his breathing was reduced to minimum, his body was totally wiped out, he wanted to speak and interact with the devotees as he always does. I want to offer my most deep obeisances to him, who never stops preaching even when he is tired, sick, thirsty, etc!!! 2:40 pm: As we arrived at the hospital, we asked Shiromani mataji about GM's condition. She said that GM is without the ventilator since morning time. We went inside the ICCU to see GM. He was very tired, but he was better than other times when ventilator was switched off. We asked the nurses to remove his socks and machine for massaging his legs. His feet were totally dry and therefore we applied the cream to his feet. GM wanted to tell us something but we told him to keep his energy saved for breathing. GM was hungry. I asked the nurses if we could feed him. They asked me if I received the permission to give our temple food and I said yes. HG Nitai Prasad prabhu, the General Manager of Sridham Mayapur was with us. We explained to him how to feed Guru Maharaja and he fed Guru Maharaja nicely. GM took 14 spoons of soup and 3 pieces of dhosas. Around 4 pm, HH Bhakti Purusottama Swami Maharaja, HG Braja Hari prabhu came to the hospital. HH Bhakti Purusottama Swami Maharaja brought many wonderful things from Jagannath Puri. He had Maha oil which the priests use to massage on the transcendental body of Lord Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra Devi when they get sick after Snana yatra pastime. He also brought Caranamrta, camphor, sandalwood paste, a piece of kusa grass that is used to bless the Lord and wish Him good luck, even he got a piece of Lord's Body (from Nava-kalevaram -- the festive procedure of changing Lord Jagannatha's body), and of course Jagannath Maha Prasad which has been taken from the Lord's plate directly. For many, many years, Maharaja had not gone inside the temple! They went inside the ICCU to see Guru Maharaja. After 5 min, HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja came and the nurses placed a special device for enabling GM to talk. This transcendental conversation is available on the web and the link has been sent on a separate text. I just want to mention it was a very sweet pastime to see. The devotees were very affectionate, gave a massage to GM, chanted for him and encouraged him. In front of GM one old person was almost dying. During the sweet kirtan of HH Radhanath Swami Maharaja the old person passed away. The kirtan was meant for GM, but everyone got the benefit. What a great fortune!!! After everyone left, GM was wiped out. They made him to sit on a sofa to increase his blood circulation, and then they put him to sleep. Many of you might have already heard GM's conversation. His voice is not so audible. I mean to say he was exhausted just from breathing. I know many of you are already praying, but we need to increase the prayers to get GM out of the ventilator. One devotee told me, he prayed during the Damodara month as follows: ¨ My dear Mother Yasoda, Krishna might not listen to my prayer, but you are his mother. He will listen to you. So kindly tell him to help my GM to come out of the ventilator." Please keep praying. GM wants to go to Mayapur. Your servants, JPS caregivers Saturday, November 22 - Guru Mukha Padma Vakya: recorded conversation on 21-Nov-08: Dear Devotees, Hare Krsna. Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Srila Gurudeva. Yesterday Guru Maharaja for the first time spoke few words with great difficulty. The speech was recorded by Ekanath Gaura prabhu with his team members. HH Radhanatha Swami Maharaja, HH Bhakti Purushottama Swami Maharaja, HG Braja Hari prabhu and Ananda Tirtha Prabhu went to see Guru Maharaja. The doctors placed the speaking valve to enable him to speak. guru-mukha-padma-vakya, cittete koriya aikya, ar na koriho mane asa "My only wish is to have my consciousness purified by the words emanating from his lotus mouth." The recorded speech is in the following url: http://www.haridesign.com.br/guru_maharaj/guru_maharaj Hearing the above one can understand how Krsna Conscious Guru Maharaja is.

RNS: Every holy place that we went, we were also at Govardhan parikrama, we were all praying for you. All thousands and thousands of devotees we were in Vrndavan meditating on our love and gratitude to you and praying to Sri Radha and Krsna to help you to recover. All over the world the devotees are united in doing kirtan and praying for your good health. It was beautiful before each evening lecture all the 4000 devotees were together and we would began by hearing an update and the report of your health condition and then we would speak about you and then we would all take some minutes in prayer for you and kirtan for you. It is beautiful to see how much devotees love you from their heart and hearts with such deep gratitude for your compassion and a lifetime of devotional service. Even non devotee doctors and nurses are developing faith by seeing how miraculuosly Krsna is healing you. Even in this condition you are preaching, uniting devotees hearts, giving people faith. There is nothing that can be done to keep you from being an empowered preacher. You're seriously affecting devotees hearts. It brings us joy to see this.

Your humble servant, Ratnavali dd Saturday, November 22 - Report from HG Maha Varaha Prabhu: 20-Nov-08 I was on a night shift today with Madhava Kanta Prabhu. When we reached the hospital, Dr.Sagar from the Bhaktivedanta Hospital told us that GM is sleeping now as he is little tired of breathing on his own from 11.30am. I asked Dr.Sagar to find out if it is possible to feed GM now. He said we can feed GM as soon as he wakes up. 30 minutes later GM woke up. I went inside the ICCU and asked him whether he would like to have his dinner now? GM didn't reply anything. The nurses who were beside GM asked him the same question; still we didn't get any reply. I told GM that he must eat something so that he can build up his strength to walk, speak etc. At around 9pm I and Madhava Kanta Prabhu fed GM with chickpea and vegetable mixed soup. He ate about 8 spoons. At one point he started to cough and then he stopped taking the prasadam. Dr.Anamika who was on duty insisted GM to eat more. GM shook his head in disagreement. Finally I gave some water for him to drink. After drinking the water he was trying to say something. But Doctor told him to relax since he is breathing without the support of ventilator. GM fell asleep 20 minutes later. I went inside the ICCU at 5am to check GM's condition. The nurse told me GM is back on ventilator at 4.15am. I rubbed his hand gently and he opened his eye. I put Sri Sri Radha Madhava picture in front him for his morning darshan. After 10 seconds he closed his eyes. I understood that he is exhausted of breathing on his own the whole night. Saturday, November 22 - Morning Report: HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: Maharaja has been off the ventilator for 24 hrs. He's maintaining oxygen saturation. Doctors are continuing to give encouraging reports. The oral feeds are going on. Please continue to pray intensely.

Excellent realizations by DEVOTEES of Krsna!!!

Very interesting read. As far as the Moon our gross material body perceives in the sky with our naked eye and with our primitive technology is concerned, the evidence is overwhelming that the Apollo 25 crew left a beacon or reflector on the Moon. And if anyone on Earth shoots radio waves or a Laser at that part of the Moon where they landed, it will be reflected back proving man made objects are on the Moon. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:" /><o:p></o:p> The beacon or retroreflector on the Moon is explained here- http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=VmVxSFnjYCA. As far as I'm concerned, this proves man went to that object in the Sky we call the Moon Obviously they did not go to the heavenly Moon planets atmosphere however that makes me wonder if the Astronauts could not see the celestial Moon then what are we, trapped in these gross biological vessels, are NOT seeing around us on earth??? The fact is, we are surrounded with life in other dimensional realms of time and space that is individually contained in ethereal vessels of both heavenly, hellish and in-between (ghosts who are suicides, sudden horrific deaths etc) realties<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The fact is, we see only one third of material creation, the rest our biological bodies and its technological extensions, such as the Hubble telescope and Electron microscope, CANNOT DETECT the ethereal and sub-space worlds of the material creation. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Only through pious activities can one see the mundane material creation for what it really is.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> However, to serve Krsna’s PURE devotees is the highest goal of both the material and Spiritual worlds<o:p></o:p>

<HR style="COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message --> Wednesday, November 19 - Report from HG Ekanath Gaura Prabhu: 18th Nov, 7 pm - 11 pm 7 pm: We were today on the night shift of care givers and when we arrived HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja was with Guru Maharaja holding his hand and gently touching his head. Since visiting hours is only between 5 to 7 pm, he told me he will leave, and I told him that Guru Maharaja will eat now. He said "Oh, then I would love to feed him." HH Lokanath Swami Maharaj in a very humble and caring way fed Guru Maharaja for around 30 min. This time Guru Maharaja ate a little more!!! Then Maharaja took Guru Maharaja's hand and placed it on his head asking for blessings and then Maharaja left. After Lokanath Swami Maharaja went Guru Maharaja was trying to communicate with us during the night. Guru Maharaja was very active and conscious. Whenever he sees a person he asks who he is. He wants to know everything that is happening around him. His eyes are very active and as soon as he recognizes someone, he starts calling him and moves his hands and head doing signals asking him different questions. Sometimes he points his head, sometimes his stomach, sometimes he moves his tongue like he is talking, sometimes he wants to write and other times he moves his whole body. Like that Guru Maharaja is interacting with us in different ways. When we cannot understand him, he points out the alphabetic board and he tries to indicate us the letters. It is like playing charades and guessing what Guru Maharaja wants. At 10:30 pm, the nurses told me to leave, because it is time to sleep. We went to ICCU waiting room, and around 11 pm the nurses call out in the speaker, "bed number 20, bed number 20!!!". So we rush to Guru Maharaja's bed, and I saw like 3 nurses with the alphabetic board, trying to guess what he wanted, jejeje. Finally they gave up and told us Swamiji want something. We asked Guru Maharaja and he wanted us to turn off the lights and to scratch his face. Guru Maharaja did not want to sleep. So I told him, "Please it is 11 pm, it's time to sleep." Like always his nitya lila. But no hope. So we started to read softly Caitanya Caritamrita, and to do massage on his legs. Slowly he started to close his eyes and finally sleep. 19th Nov 4:30 am: We went for the morning program, and Guru Maharaja was already awake asking questions to the nurses. We tried to guess what he wanted and finally I told him that it is mangal arotik time. We took the picture of Radha Madhava and Panca Tattva and started singing. He remained silent and in a praying mood, finally we brought the picture of Lord Nrsimha, and sang Namas Te prayers. After the prayers I started explaining to Guru Maharaja the whole history of what had happened from the beginning when he was admitted in the hospital until now how he is improving a lot. Guru Maharaja was listening carefully as he always wants to know what was happening to him. Finally I told him that we are in trouble now, because all his Godbrothers wanted to go to Europe, USA, Oz, etc! We would like to thank all the devotees who are caring for Guru Maharaja, especially Braja Hari prabhu and HH Bhakti Purushottama Swami Maharaja who is leading the whole team so nicely. All the Bhaktivedanta Hospital doctors lead by Madhavananda prabhu, Pundarik Govinda Prabhu who is the supervisor and the devotees who are behind the screen like Madhava Kanta Prabhu, Ratnavali dd, Sarva Sakti dd, Madhuri Yamuna dd and Vasudevatmaja prabhu who are acting as facilitators. Also special thanks to the Mayapur Brahmacaris who are standing outside the hospital guarding 24hrs a day. Your servants, JPS Caregivers Wednesday, November 19 - Message from HG Ekanath Gaura Prabhu: 17 Nov afternoon shift: Guru Maharaja was most conscious today. Asraya, Bhadra Balaram and I were in the hospital together with Damodar Pandit Prabhu (the Bhaktivedanta Hospital Spiritual Counsellor). 7 pm: I went to the ICCU room, and Guru Maharaja was with his eyes open, and he was observing to see who has come to see him. One of the duties of the secretaries is to ask Guru Maharaja how he feels, etc, so we ask him and he nodded his head to say he is ok. Sometimes when we ask him how he is, he moves his fingers, or limbs to show he is feeling better. I explained to him that we have a new system for communication, which is called Camera mouse. It is a software that needs a webcam. The webcam is used to select a part of your body which will work as a mouse. Guru Maharaja can use his eyes or his head, or a finger as a mouse, and he can indicate the alphabets on the computer or use any program on the computer normally. He was happy about it. At this moment he is weak to use it but we will try it when he gets little stronger. Damodara Pandit prabhu also explained to Guru Maharaja about the program and some other details. Guru Maharaja pointed me his stomach. I asked him if he would like to eat and he replied yes. Vasudevatmaja prabhu had prepared some prasadam for Guru Maharaja. Since the ventilator was on a full mode we were not allowed to feed orally any food to Guru Maharaja. The fact that Guru Maharaja is asking for food is a good symptom. It means that his body has started to work properly. Later on, I came back and I told Guru Maharaja that many of his Godbrothers and well wishers came to see him, like HH Sacinandana Swami Maharaja, HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj, HH Radha Govinda Swami Maharaja, HH Kavicandra Swami Maharaja, HH Gopal Krsna Goswami, Tirtharaj Prabu, Gauragopala Prabhu etc. I asked Guru Maharaja, "Did you see HH Sacinandana Swami Maharaja in the morning?" He was very happy and he inquired with his head if Maharaja was there. I said, "No, he came in the morning to tell you about the dream he had with you." Guru Maharaja wanted to know about the dream. I told him that Maharaja will be coming personally to tell the dream. I also said Tirtharaj Prabhu came in the morning with his wife. Guru Maharaja moved his head and hands asking me if they were here too, “unfortunately no” I replied, but they send their love to you. I said Tirtharaja Prabhu inviting you to OZ and HH Bir Krishna Goswami to USA and he opened his eyes very big, and was filled with tears. At 7:50 pm I explained him that we have 4 shifts, Maha Varaha, Bhadra Balarama, Vaikuntha Pati and Dharesh... Guru Maharaja moved his mouth and said, "Dharesh?" I said yes. Guru Maharaja wanted to know if Dharesh was there. I said he would be coming tomorrow. Guru Maharaja was happy to see that all his servants were there with him. I took his hand and I told him, "Guru Maharaja we are all here in the hospital with you. Not only us, all the devotees around the world are here with you. We love you so much, and his eyes again filled with tears." Damodara Pandit Prabhu suggested that we should have a whole day program for Guru Maharaja with devotees taking turns to read, to chant with him, to feed him and to visit him. 8 pm: Guru Maharaja started moving his hand towards all the tubes asking me why he has all these tubes. I told him that one is for ventilator. He pointed the other and I said for removing the mucus and like this we went through each one of them. Finally he moved his left hand like he wanted to chant. So I asked him if he wanted his clicker. He nodded no. I asked if he wanted Black berry. He nodded no. I became confused and kept asking if he wants to chant but that's not what he wanted. Finally I realised he was talking about a special device that he has on his left finger and a tube connecting to it to measure the blood. Wednesay, November 19 - Evening Report: HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: The neurologist was happy to see Maharaja fully alert and conscious. Maharaja feels hungry and asks to be fed. He takes a few teaspoons of semisolid food 2-3 times a day. The weaning from the ventilator is going on. Today they weaned him off the ventilatory support at 2.30 pm. We are waiting and watching for how long he can sustain respiration without the ventilatory support. The progress he is making is very heartening to see and the neurologist and intensivist are happy with this positive outcome and feel that very soon he will be able to pull through without ventilatory support. Maharaja is much less critical as compared to the first 10 days of his admission in ICU. Please continue to pray intensely. Wednesday, November 19 - Additional Information: While Ekanatha Gaura prabhu was making the bowl ready to feed the soup to Guru Maharaja, HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja wanted to feed Guru Maharaja personally. He took the bowl from Ekanath Gaura prabhu and fed few spoons of soup to Guru Maharaja. What a nice loving reciprocation!!! Yesterday Asraya Govinda prabhu mentioned to Guru Maharaja that he is going back to Mayapur. Guru Maharaja through the sign language expressed his desire to also go to Mayapur. Asraya Govinda prabhu replied once Guru Maharaja gets better and comes out of the hospital will be taken to Mayapur. Guru Maharaja's heart is always in Mayapur! Through the sign language Guru Maharaja wanted to know in which hospital he was, who were the doctors treating him and who was paying for his expenses. He is not talking yet but through the alphabetical board, some hand movements and face expressions communicating with the devotees. The devotees asked Guru Maharaja not to worry of the medical expenses as it has been taken care of. Right now the real hurdle is for Guru Maharaja to come out of the ICCU and the ventilator. His lungs are little weak. We need another miracle to happen so that with Lord Krishna's mercy Guru Maharaja can successfully come out of the ventilator. The most merciful Lordships seem to be reciprocating lovingly with devotees' prayers and we beg Them to continue so that Guru Maharaja can fully recover. In conclusion, devotees please remember that Guru Maharaja's situation is still critical and sincere prayers are the only medicine. Your humble servant, Ratnavali dd Wednesday, November 19 - Message from HG Mahavaraha Prabhu: Yesterday around 6pm HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja came to visit Guru Maharaja at Hinduja Hospital. Maharaja is coming after the one month Vraja Mandala Parikrama and 3 days Puri Parikrama. Maharaja was with Guru Maharaja for almost 1 hour 15 mins. He was explaning about the Vraja Mandala Parikrama and also the Puri Parikrama. According to Maharaja about 5000 Puri Parikrama participants offered each of their sankalpa in the name of Guru Maharaja in front of the Simha Dwara (Lion Gate) of Lord Jaganatha Temple. He went on explaining in detail about the success of the parikrama and how the devotees were missing his transcendental association. Before HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja left the ICCU ward he asked Guru Maharaja if there is any message for the devotees? Guru Maharaja pointed out the word 'Gauranga' & 'Haribol' on the alphabetical board. NOTE - As I am in India, my reports will be every third day unless something big happens Hare Krsna - Sarva

So I asked him if he wanted his clicker. He nodded no. I asked if he wanted Black berry. He nodded no. I became confused and kept asking if he wants to chant but that's not what he wanted. Finally I realised he was talking about a special device that he has on his left finger and a tube connecting to it to measure the blood. Wednesay, November 19 - Evening Report: HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai: The neurologist was happy to see Maharaja fully alert and conscious. Maharaja feels hungry and asks to be fed. He takes a few teaspoons of semisolid food 2-3 times a day. The weaning from the ventilator is going on. Today they weaned him off the ventilatory support at 2.30 pm. We are waiting and watching for how long he can sustain respiration without the ventilatory support. The progress he is making is very heartening to see and the neurologist and intensivist are happy with this positive outcome and feel that very soon he will be able to pull through without ventilatory support. Maharaja is much less critical as compared to the first 10 days of his admission in ICU. Please continue to pray intensely. Wednesday, November 19 - Additional Information: While Ekanatha Gaura prabhu was making the bowl ready to feed the soup to Guru Maharaja, HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja wanted to feed Guru Maharaja personally. He took the bowl from Ekanath Gaura prabhu and fed few spoons of soup to Guru Maharaja. What a nice loving reciprocation!!! Yesterday Asraya Govinda prabhu mentioned to Guru Maharaja that he is going back to Mayapur. Guru Maharaja through the sign language expressed his desire to also go to Mayapur. Asraya Govinda prabhu replied once Guru Maharaja gets better and comes out of the hospital will be taken to Mayapur. Guru Maharaja's heart is always in Mayapur! Through the sign language Guru Maharaja wanted to know in which hospital he was, who were the doctors treating him and who was paying for his expenses. He is not talking yet but through the alphabetical board, some hand movements and face expressions communicating with the devotees. The devotees asked Guru Maharaja not to worry of the medical expenses as it has been taken care of. Right now the real hurdle is for Guru Maharaja to come out of the ICCU and the ventilator. His lungs are little weak. We need another miracle to happen so that with Lord Krishna's mercy Guru Maharaja can successfully come out of the ventilator. The most merciful Lordships seem to be reciprocating lovingly with devotees' prayers and we beg Them to continue so that Guru Maharaja can fully recover. In conclusion, devotees please remember that Guru Maharaja's situation is still critical and sincere prayers are the only medicine. Your humble servant, Ratnavali dd Wednesday, November 19 - Message from HG Mahavaraha Prabhu: Yesterday around 6pm HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja came to visit Guru Maharaja at Hinduja Hospital. Maharaja is coming after the one month Vraja Mandala Parikrama and 3 days Puri Parikrama. Maharaja was with Guru Maharaja for almost 1 hour 15 mins. He was explaning about the Vraja Mandala Parikrama and also the Puri Parikrama. According to Maharaja about 5000 Puri Parikrama participants offered each of their sankalpa in the name of Guru Maharaja in front of the Simha Dwara (Lion Gate) of Lord Jaganatha Temple. He went on explaining in detail about the success of the parikrama and how the devotees were missing his transcendental association. Before HH Lokanath Swami Maharaja left the ICCU ward he asked Guru Maharaja if there is any message for the devotees? Guru Maharaja pointed out the word 'Gauranga' & 'Haribol' on the alphabetical board. NOTE - As I am in India, my reports will be every third day unless something big happens Hare Krsna - Sarva

Stop being arrogent and blinded by 'so called faith' It's a fact man walked on Moon!! But could not enter the subtle heavenly ethreal atmosphere there in their gross biological body (vessel) and it's material extentions (Apollo 11-16) Fortunately the Soviets didn't think of the gag first. They could have filmed their own fake Moon landings and really embarrassed the free world. faking a Moon rock well enough to hoodwink an international army of scientists might be more difficult than the Manhattan Project. "It would be easier to just go to the Moon and get one," he quipped. And therein lies an original idea: Did NASA go to the Moon to collect props for a staged Moon landing? It's an interesting twist on the conspiracy theory that TV producers might consider for their next episode of the Moon Hoax. "I have here in my office a 10-foot high stack of scientific books full of papers about the Apollo Moon rocks," added McKay. "Researchers in thousands of labs have examined Apollo Moon samples -- not a single paper challenges their origin! And these aren't all NASA employees, either. We've loaned samples to scientists in dozens of countries [who have no reason to cooperate in any hoax]." Even Dr. Robert Park, Director of the Washington office of the American Physical Society and a noted critic of NASA's human space flight program, agrees with the space agency on this issue. "The body of physical evidence that humans did walk on the Moon is simply overwhelming."
