(11/OCT/2018 - Chennai, India) Two days back Guru Maharaja was watching television and in between there was an ad and that program was sponsored by FOOD PANDA. So through out the program, their ad was coming... So after sometime, Guru Maharaja asked, "What is that Food Panda?" Then we said, it is like Swiggy, Zomato, Uber Eats - as such that is also one app, which are connected with many restaurants. When we order they will deliver at home, like Dominos." Then, Guru Maharaja asked Tulasi Prema Krishna Prabhu, "Is Suddha-sattva (our ISKCON restaurant in Chennai) connected with this app? Can we order Prasadam online?" Guru Maharaja was excited... And Tulasi Pr said, "No, Guru Maharaja it is not connected." Then Guru Maharaja said, "Ask them to connect." Next night, when he came Guru Maharaja asked him, "Is Suddha-sattva connected to Food Panda?" He said, "I forgot to inform them." Then today Guru Maharaja again asked, "Have they connected with Food Panda?" Then, he replied, "Yes! Guru Maharaja they are in the process to register." Guru Maharaja said, "I want to see our restaurants connected with these food apps."
Tonight, Guru Maharaja was spending time with Tulasi Pr and asking him what are the offers in amazon. And what mobiles are now in the market? And Tulasi Pr was explaining one by one. And Guru Maharaja asked what is my mobile model, Lenovo? How to upgrade it, etc. Then we gave his rest, but Guru Maharaja was asking many questions regarding this mobiles. And we were also not able to understand him, as he was already falling into sleep, but still asking questions. Then, to change the topic - I asked Guru Maharaja - can we invite His Holiness Bhanu Swami Maharaja for lunch with you Guru Maharaj. Then, he asked is he in station? Tulasi Pr said, Bhanu Maharaja may leave in three four days, so can we invite him tomorrow, Guru Maharaja said, "Tomorrow I am going to the hospital." So we will ask Maha Varaha Pr and invite him on Sunday, so that Guru Maharaja will be happy to chat with him during lunch.
And, Sarvajaya Madhava Pr sent some of the bi-pap masks photos - so we were showing those to Guru Maharaja and Guru Maharaja was telling which one he need, etc. Guru Maharaja asked to send a picture of what Guru Maharaja has with him.
So, like this night shift began... Now Guru Maharaja sleeping... Whenever he wakes up in between - immediately he starts to chant Hare Krishna Maha Mantra and clicks on his counter.
Before his dinner - Guru Maharaja spoke for 18 mins. A small talk, and we recorded it. It was not broadcasted live. As it is all we are trailing out and checking his speech ability, without any strain... Guru Maharaja doing good. Today, Akarsaka Caitanya Pr had a little tough-time in the beginning to understand Guru Maharaja. Then later he picked it up.
Guru Maharaja made an invitation to all the devotees to get ready and prepare their trip to Mayapur for Gaura Purnima Festival - book their rooms in advance to witness the wonderful Maha Abhisekam of Sri Sri Panca-tattva. Also, made an invitation for devotees to take part in Mayapur's Kartika Parikramas. He described about Asta Krosa Parikrama. It was very enlivening. We will publish this video from Archives on Sunday Morning.
I forgot, when Guru Maharaja was talking to Tulasi Pr he said to him, "Teach Syama Rasika, and other servants - how to use Swiggy, Food Panda. So that, I can order sometime through this app from Suddha-sattva. As sometimes, when I was in the ICU - there they are not giving me Prasadam to eat. So, I can order it through Food Panda."
Didn't write diaries for long time. But, will try to keep some small diaries for my future memories. (Personal Diary - Syama Rasika Dasa)
