I am not getting time to write my diaries. Somehow, the days were busy and Bhisma Pancaka. As per the advise of Guru Maharaja we made the schedule for today, so in the morning Guru Maharaja said, I will go to dialysis room and take my breakfast, and he was there in the 3rd floor lotus building at exactly 8am. And the dialysis began, and he had his fruit salad, boiled potatoes, as his breakfast. As today is a Dvadasi day, as every year this year also devotees around the world raised the same question - whether we have to break our Ekadasi fast? Then last night Guru Maharaja gave one official message that, this Bhisma Pancaka fast is one vrata, it ends on Rasa-purnima day on Moonrise, so devotees can take a sankalpa in front of the Deities that we will break our fast on Rasa-purnima day. This message reached every last night - so devotees were peaceful as their doubt got cleared by Guru Maharaja himself directly.
Dr. Hari Guru Gaura Prabhu said, 12:30pm the dialysis will get over and he will take 30 mins to wind up, clean and repack the permacath, etc. But today during the dialysis - the IV Fistula came out, when Guru Maharaja coughed so forcefully, luckily Subhanga Govinda Prabhu and Dr. Har Guru Gaura Prabhu were there just holding to it - so they immediately got hold and stopped it. There were some 50ml blood lost in this process. Due this is episode, Guru Maharaja couldn't rest. And around 12:30pm I entered the room to check the updates, Guru Maharaja was totally wiped out - no energy, and he was almost like sleepy. Then Deva Gauranga Prabhu and Radharamana Sevaka Prabhu said, "Talk to Guru Maharaja and cancel today's program to Gita Bhavan. Better to take prasadam here and rest." I know for sure Guru Maharaja won't listen to this proposal or change in plan, Guru Maharaja was keep on saying, "Get me down! Get me down!" Then I went spoke to Guru Maharaja about resting here. He listened to me everything! Then he said, "I want to take darsana of the Deities!" While getting down, I said, "Your mother said once, "My son is very much stubborn in doing things!" When I said, this Guru Maharaja gave me a look! Then there is nothing more to discuss - we said, if we have to take darsana of the Deities, then we have to rush now - as it is already 12:55pm. I told, Vaisnava Priya Prabhu, "Request the Pujaris to hold the darsana for another five mins, until Guru Maharaja come and take darsana." We rushed and Guru Maharaja reached the temple at 1pm, and the darsana was extended for ten mins. He is the mahanta of this temple, and once Jananivasa Prabhu said, "The Deities wait to see him! So if Guru Maharaja comes to take darsana of the Deities means - They will be so happy!" As soon as we entered the temple, Guru Maharaja was very much brisk. The goaf cart was ready, and we just left to Gita Bhavan, since the arrangement in Gita Bhavan was peaceful so this was very good for Guru Maharaja! When he entered the stage, he asked, "Where is Jananivasa Prabhu?"
After Prasadam we returned back, on the way back from the stage to the Golf cart, there were hundreds of devotees on both sides, trying to give their donations, and offering flowers, and some try to touch the wheelchair, like this it was a huge task for the security devotees to manage it. As some suddenly touch his lotus feet, etc. Suddenly the scene changes like we are in mini Bangladesh. It was 3:00 pm we retuned to the Lotus building and he went to rest around 3:15pm. We have to wake him up by 4:45pm to attend the GBC meeting. Actually, Guru Maharaja require at least 2 to 2:30hrs of rest in the afternoon, so that he will be fresh for the evening programs.
