About GM’s Vyasa Puja
Dear God-brothers / God-sisters,
PAMHO! AGTSP! AGTGM!
This is to officialy announce that GM will not be attending the Vyasa puja
festival in Mayapur on the 26th March 2010. He will continue taking his
therapies till mid of May 2010, in Los Angeles.
Kindly pass on this news to all the devotees, in your local group or in an
appropriate local forum.
There will be a celebration in Los Angeles on the actual day of his Vyasa
Puja. Details of the celebration will be sent out later.
There will be a smaran Vyasa Puja celebration at Sridham Mayapur in May and
we will be sending you more details on that as we finalise the dates and the
program.
The Vyasa Puja Book would be offered to Guru Maharaj on the 26th of March
2010 and you are requested to send your homage before the deadline (10th
March 2010).
Dear Prabhus / Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Guru Maharaja is now getting treated in Los
Angeles. According to his secretary and personal doctor, his health is
improving but very slowly.
I had previously made an appeal to the devotees to chant extra rounds and
offer to the Lord for the speedy recovery of His Holiness’s health. Though
His Holiness has been saved from the very critical health crisis due to the
prayers and chanting of thousands and thousands of devotees around the world
still he has not yet recovered fully to travel and preach around the world
to fulfill the desire of his Guru maharaja, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila
Prabhupada.
At the time of the stroke in Mumbai when his health was at danger we had
come across with many astrologers. Many of their predictions regarding the
recovery of his health had come true.

Letter from Guru Maharaja
My Dear Diksa and Siksa Disciples,
Please accept my blessings. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Kindly find the enclosed report of my present therapies and condition since
I’ve come to America (Note: the report has been already posted earlier). You
can find more details of the previous therapies undertaken from the website
www.jpshealth.info posted by Ratnavali dd.
Many of my disciples are asking when I will visit them and when will I come
to Mayapur. I am not sure yet. I’ve written the GBC Officers and to the
Mayapur Leaders to ask them whether I should continue the therapies or go
back to Mayapur. I will certainly like to visit all of you but I don’t know
how much possible it is. If the physiotherapy is successful then I should be
able to travel and visit. I was traveling around the world 5 or 6 times in a
year, obviously I would not be able to travel as much in the future, but
regarding of how much I’ll travel is not yet, it is premature to decide now.
In this way, I would like to spend more time in my zone, and a few months a
year I’d visit the other centers whenever possible.
GM’s health report by Sraddha DD
Continuity has proven to be the best therapy for Guru Maharaj. Though many
of you may think he is finally resting, Guru Maharaj is undergoing several
hours of various therapies daily. He sees physical, occupational, and speech
therapists daily and a visual therapist, a chiropractor, and a neurologist
weekly.
When he is not being retrained in balance, walking, fine motor skills and
other daily activities in the High Hopes facility (for 7 hours daily), Guru
Maharaj is training in a gym, in a pool or in his apartment. His unmatched
enthusiasm, the dedicated team of devotees and therapists, the continuity of
treatment, and all of your prayers are helping him in his recovery. His
progress is gradual, but is quite visible and inspiring.
6, 7 Feb 2010 – Los Angeles, USA
Since the beginning of Dec and Jan I’ve been taking therapies in Southern
California. I’ve been graciously offered a quarter in the Los Angeles
Temple, New Dwarka, by Svavas prabhu, the temple president. He said that as
long as it takes I am welcome to stay for the therapies. Some of the
devotees attending me are staying in the quarter and some are in the
brahmacari and brahmacarini quarters.
The therapy is basically centered from Monday thru Thursday at the High
Hopes Head Injury Rehabilitation Program. There may be around 50 to 100
students at High Hopes. They are a Charitable Trust so they charge $2500 per
month, where as other places in North America seem to charge about $1000 a
day, more or less.
