(21/JUL/2014) - Sri Mayapur, India

As like yesterday today also, I spent my time with Vidvan Gauranga Pr and Archives. And return back to see Guru Maharaj at 5 pm.  Guru Maharaj was taking his afternoon rest. Then he woke up at 6:30pm. I went to saw him, he asked me, "Why you didn't come to see me whole day?" And i explained him what I was doing. Then he asked me to read the answers for 13th question. And I was reading one by one. Then he started to speak to Jaya Radha Krishna Prabhu regarding finding quotes on Srila Prabhupada and on our movement,  that was very deep; Guru Maharaj said, "I am the only one searching for that...may be some. But so far nothing we found." "Once in South India; One person came and asked me, how do you know that 10,000 years is golden age. Then we don't know, what is the answer, and he himself said, in Brahma Vaivarta purana, 125th section it is mentioned by Lord Krishna to the rivers headed by Ganga." So Guru Maharaj said, "We didn't know this before; and we didn't research;  someone came and told us. Lord Chaitanya is chana avatar; now it is a time to reveal His glories. We have to do it." So he spoke for almost 20 mins.

Then he met Sankarshan Nitai Pr and was discussing about, Malda,  Ramkeli and Ekachakra temple construction and deity installation. After that meeting Guru Maharaj gave darshan to Gauranga Desh devotees. Around 25 devotees were there. Guru maharaj spoke for 5 mins about Sri Mayapur and it's glories. After that the group leaders introduced each family. And Guru Maharaj was blessed them. As Guru Maharaj is sick. He didn't touch anyone or give prasadam from his hand. Guru Maharaj said, put the table between him and devotees. So that they will be three feet away from him. It is not that Guru Maharaj get some infection from devotees.  He don't want any devotee to take his infection and suffer.  Who can think like this?

Then Guru Maharaj took his dinner. After dinner he went to toilet. And came back and chanted his Gayathri. Then went to bed at 12 am. 

While Guru Maharaj taking his dinner, I was speaking with Deva Gauranga Pr. And he was sharing with me, what happened during this afternoon. He said, Guru Maharaj was asking for Jewel,  so Deva Gauranga Pr didn't understand, he asked Guru Maharaj what is that Guru Maharaj?  "I want that Ciyamantaka Jewel, I want to produce gold and use it TOVP."

And before Guru Maharaj went to bed, he was making action with his left hand as like he is shooting with gun. Then Guru Maharaj said it seems, "I want to practice gun shooting with left arm." Then Deva Gauranga Pr remembered old days of Guru Maharaj in Mayapur,  he said, "Guru Maharaj practice gun shooting, arrow shooting, and stick fight." And while speaking, His eyes slightly watered. And said, "Guru Maharaj! Was like that, now to see him in this condition my heart it breaking. Now he is sitting like Jagannath Das Baba ji Maharaj; it should happen after 30 years; not now."

Like this, everyone was speaking the glories of Guru Maharaj and their love for Guru Maharaj has no end.

At 12 am Guru Maharaj was asking about Sri Krishna Caitanya Book project progress.  And I was explaining him, what Vidvan Gauranga Prabhu is upto. And from Thursday we start one hour everyday with Guru Maharaj on this project. Very exciting and waiting for it.
