- Sri Mayapur, India
Today morning I just paid my obeisances
to Guru Maharaj and left to Archives. In the afternoon; I return back to
Lotus roof; as they called me to make the video conferencing setup. But, the
meeting going to be tomorrow morning. Maha Varaha Pr was reading mails and Guru
Maharaj was dictating replies. Maha Varaha Pr said, "Guru Maharaj answered
for 5 long mails" Then Guru Maharaj went to bathroom; so I was assisting
afternoon shift devotees. Then Guru Maharaj asked me to read the answers for
Question number #15. Then I read all the answers; some where wrong
speculations. So Guru Maharaj was laughing so much. Then Guru Maharaj went to
bed for his afternoon nap. Guru Maharaj was playing with Bengali Brahmacari
servants; saying some word, "Banglastami" they were thinking what is
that? Then they started to speculate and speculate; then Guru Maharaj
said, "there no such word." Like this he was playing like a
small kid. He is energetic; and healthy today.
Gauranga Simha pr came and he was
discussing with Guru Maharaj regarding the meetings and updates. Then Guru
Maharaj took rest. Then I went back to archive to continue my service.
At 6:30pm Deva Gauranga Pr called me
and said, "Guru Maharaj is now in Chaitanya exhibition, chanting his
Gayathri; come fast with camera to take pictures. Then I rushed to
temple. And took the camera also. After his Gayathri. Guru. Maharaj went to
take darshan of deities. And devotees and public were just trying to get his darshan
and blessings. So, there was lot of work for the security to make way for Guru
Maharaj and pushing people from Guru Maharaj's path. Then after darshan Guru
Maharaj came back to his quarters and took his dinner. I was feeding his
dinner. It is just boiled rice and boiled dhaal. Guru Maharaj was just taking
it as he was hngry. He took 40gms in the morning and night now 40gms. Then
after dinner he went to bed at 9pm. It was an amazing factor for all the
servants as Guru Maharaj is on bed at 9pm. But, he started to hear Bhagavatam;
and Jaya Radha Krishna Pr reading and reading...
Then Guru Maharaj was asking about
Caitanya Book. And I explained how we are going to work it out; the basic
plan. As per his desire. And Guru Maharaj continuEd to listen Srimad
Bhagavatam. At 12 am midnight Sri Caitanya Srivas pr came to our room and said,
"Guru Maharaj asking something." Then we rushed to Guru Maharaj room.
He just finished hearing Bhagavatam. Guru Maharaj was awake and he completed
the 5th canto it seems. Mostly; he must have read 6 chapters
continuously. Then myself, Janakiram pr, went to assist Guru Maharaj. And
Maha Varaha Pr also came to see Guru Maharaj and checked the fever; etc. Every
thing is normal. Then we said, "Good Night" to Guru Maharaj and back to
our room.
This new Ayurvedic treatment is
working... He is getting better. But the doctors said, this diet will be there
for another 10 days minimum to make his internal digestion system back to
normal. So, it is a austerity time. Guru Maharaj is transcendental. But
we are feeling too bad; to give him this boil rice and dhaal. But we see, thus
recovery period is very very important.
