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

Today, reached Guru Maharaj during his lunch and was assisting to make projection to make some presentation during his lunch. After lunch Guru Maharaj went to rest.

I went to temple for darshan. That time one Brahmacari met me. He said, "We pujaris are doing everyday two times puja to Lord Narasimhadev, Sri Sri Radha Madhava and Sri Sri Pancha Tattva for Guru Maharaj.  We are offering 108 Tulasi leaf offering, Malawi flower offering, lotus flower offering for Guru Maharaj's health. Please inform this Guru Maharaj. We are all praying for him." So asked his name. His name is Arjuneswara Govinda das.

Then I came to see Guru Maharaj; and he woke up at 5:45pm.  And soon after 6:05pm there was a unofficial, personal, friendly meeting with Shadbhuja pr from TOVP. And he was telling Guru Maharaj about his updates on TOVP.

Maha Varaha Pr asked Guru Maharaj, "How are you feeling? Are you feeling getting better day by day, or weaker?" After sometime, Guru Maharaj answered, "I feel weak, may be if I go to pool and do some exercises then I can regain my strength." Then Maha Varaha pr said, "From tomorrow.we will make arrangements for that..."

Then Guru Maharaj went to temple for darshan.  He was too tired. But even, the devotees were pushing and rushing to touch him, to take darshan of him, to get blessings from him. It is too much messy. We were not able to clear them. And security came and they were not able to.clear. The temple hall was filled with pilgrims and devotees. It is during santhya arati. So everyone's view was on Guru Maharaj. And Guru Maharaj met, TOVP fundraiser in front of Sri Sri Radha Madhava, then they were saying about their results and their plans about going to different places to raise fund to raise the temple. Then They introduced one devotee from Krishna Katha Desh, who had collected 57 golden bricks for TOVP.

Guru Maharaj was happy. And they said, "HE ID YOUR DISCIPLE." At that moment Guru Maharaj raised his head and just pulled him and hugged him for few moments.  He was so happy... This hug must have given him go much of boost and greatest reward for his service from his Guru.

Then after darshan Guru Maharaj came upstairs and took his dinner. And was speaking with Sarva Jaya pr and his family as they are leaving tomorrow morning and all the way they have come from USA. Guru Maharaj was happy with them. I don't remember the whole conversation. But Guru Maharaj was giving advise how the business is a karma of a grihasta. Guru Maharaj said, "you have a family, you have a girl, you have to great responsibility.  You have to give her marriage. You have to two sons...." Then he said, "according to Srila Prabhupada's karma he supposed to be millionaire. But his business was not so good. He chose preaching...." somehow, Guru Maharaj didn't conclude this statement.  And I thought in my mind. "Yes! Srila Prabhupada was millionaire after preaching..."

Then Guru Maharaj asked his daughter "are checking my Facebook updates?" She said, "yes!" "You are not sending answers for the questions?" Like this Guru Maharaj was speaking for 15 mins with their family.

And then Guru Maharaj went to bathroom and back to bed at 11pm.

Actually, from day after tomorrow doctors from Kottaikal, Kerala Ayurvedic treatment will be here in Mayapur to give Guru Maharaj treatment. So we are expecting he will be back out of these toxins of antibiotic and other medicines.

Every day,  expecting some.miracles from the Lord. And make Guru Maharaj to walk and be active like before. As Guru Maharaj said, "If Krishna willing." Now Guru Maharaj is taking good rest and taking nice prasadam. And relaxing. Another two days we have to wait for the doctors team. His extensive world tour travel made his body too tired. Immediately Kolkata Ratha-yatra and Travel to Mayapur made him sick. Only thing is we have to chant more rounds and pray to the Lord.
