Daily Diary of Guru Maharaj 11th – 14th August

Daily Diary of Guru Maharaja by , Maharaja Isvara Puri das. 11 to 14 August 2011.

 

“FROM RUSSIA WITH MORE PREMA”

Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga.

On August 11 Guru Maharaj arrived from Russia to Kolkata, completing the last portion of his second trip around the world. In Mayapur we expected arrival late in the evening of that day but due to poor weather and as a consequence the fall of a tree in the road, made his arrival in Mayapur be postponed for the next day, staying in the Habibpur village temple and satisfying the desire of the president and the local devotees, which had built a special room for Guru Maharaj, as mentioned in the report called “A Long Journey to Mayapur.”

Diary: 12th to 15th July 2011

“Days pass”
Please accept our humble obeisance.
All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga.

GM’s activities during these 4 days have not been as intense as those of the previous days. You could say that these 4 days are more relaxed than the past 2 months in the sense He has not been traveling for considerable distances and there was no special festival during these days and to my knowledge no planned meetings. Guru Maharaj has been giving classes on Bhagavad Gita in the evening. At bedtime Guru Maharaj relaxes with the Krishna book. I asked the devotee of Iran every night to help me with Guru Maharaj and please take the service of reading, as I have to admit that my mispronunciation of some words is a disturbance to GM. Fortunately he has accepted and has been doing this service for all these nights.

Diary: 11 Jul 2011

“THE RETURN Ekadasi Rath Yatra”
Please accept our humble obeisance.
All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga.

Following the events of this July 11, a little past 1 pm, I went to the terrace to take my Ekadasi prasadam. The servants were taking their turns and the servant who was with GM needed help, so Daresha suggested I go to get help. Guru Maharaj was getting ready to go to the place where the Coaches depart with Jagannath Subadra Baladeva to return to their temple, as I mentioned in one of the last reports, it is known as ISKCON Jagannath Temple, which is relatively nearby. A devotee of Iran has been helping us from Kolkata.

This July 10 was the first day of GM in Mayapur after his long journey . He has resumed again to follow His regular activities established a year ago when he returned from his long stay in Los Angeles and promised to remain in the Dhama most of the year.
When I finished my last shift at about 6am, I was still resting. Gauranam who had just arrived later and told me about the plans, so I suggested it would be good to let him rest .At about 2pm He was taking his lunch and then afternoon break. Several devotees arrived on the terrace and were there to take darshan of Guru Maharaj.

After submitting the previous report it is now 6am on 9th July. I was told that Guru Maharaj would go to Mayapur this afternoon.Guru Maharaj had gone to the temple to take darshan of the Deities. It was for about 1 hour and then we headed for the pandal ceremony for initiation that took place there.
In the room Guru Maharaj had about 30 bags or more, all of different sizes, colors and shapes. Daresha had rented a small truck to send all direct to Mayapur with Siromani. Soon the car arrived and we loaded all the bags onto the car.

Daily Diary of Puri Maharaja das

“Rath Yatra in Kolkata 2011”

Please accept our humble obeisance. All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga.

Guru Maharaj’s departure to the place where the Ratha Yatra, was scheduled to be was at about 11am. At about 11:15 am I got to the appartmentt and were almost ready. A few of the servants were present and some Matajis were in the room to take his darshan. Guru Maharaj was out in his wheelchair and was in the room for a few minutes, before being taken to the elevator. Most of the other servants walked down the stairs and headed towards the exit to take taxis to the Ratha Yatra. Servants on duty would be responsible for GM.
