11:00am
This morning GM continued his fight forward. Revati Raman has returned,
massaged GM’s limbs and GM was moved to see more of his senior devotees come
to him. Again more tears as he lifted his left hand to acknowledge. More
letters were read from Badri Narayana, Lila Sukta, Niranjana Swami and
Aniruddha in Melbourne. GM attentively head these letters in contemplation.
Then he shifted his attention to the CC readings. Today was Lord Caitanya’s
tour of South India.
The doctors had brought in a ‘breathing team’ that specializes in weaning
patients of the ventilator set up. While I was there GM was brought to the
sitting position breathing completely on his own(around 80 minutes..we will
find out tomorrow how long throughout the day). It was difficult for him and
his breathing was loud. This position is good also to clear mucus from the
system.
Apart from a come back for GM, it appears that we are the ones being given
a ‘second chance’ in service to him. Please keep up your positive prayers
and the Lord will certainly reciprocate. Daily more and more letters are
coming in with a common unifying concern.
Btw…last night the Damodarastakam was sung to GM which brought tears to
his eyes…the devotees were so moved that they forgot the rest of the
lines…
Best wishes
Your servant
Bhaktisiddhanta Swami
