SRILA GURUDEVAS PROGRESS!!
by Bhagavat Maharaja on Thursday, November 18, 2010 at 4:11am
Over all Srila Gurudeva is progressing well. He is eating and drinking more by mouth and not the tube. He drank a whole cup of soup with his mouth on his own yesterday. He walks a little everyday and goes around in his wheel chair. His voice his stronger and clear. He speaks with people everyday and gives instructions. He talks about how he will get cured and recover. He spends less time in deep samadhi and more time consciously present with his surroundings. He wants to be active and take a more active part in what is going on. He asked to go to Delhi to the dentist. So he wants to get out and about and move here and there. He does not always sleep well at night due to some minor inconveniences to his body. However it does not seem to affect his progress during the day except he needs to nap more because he is tired. He continues to take his Massage therapy and physio therapy.He gave initiation yesterday to many devotees and gave all of them darshan.
Dr Ray is coming tonight and he will be working on Srila Gurudeva tomorrow. I am not sure about this but it appears that since Srila Gurudeva is stronger that Dr. Ray will now begin the cancer therapy. Of course Srila Gurudeva is the one who will cure the cancer, as he has said a few times already that he can cure himself at any moment. Srila Gurudeva is just using Dr. Ray to remove the cancer from his spiritulized body the way Krishna used Arjuna to remove the cancer of the Kauravas on the earth . Srila Gurudeva engages us in his service and accepts our service to help us become more attached to him and to the process of developing love for Sri Sri Radha Vinode Bihari.
Srila Gurudeva Ki Jaya!!!!!!!!

SRILA GURUDEVA IS SO MERCIFUL!!!!
SRILA GURUDEVA IS SO MERCIFUL!!!!
by Bhagavat Maharaja on Tuesday, November 16, 2010 at 2:32am
The night before Srila Gurudeva slept deep and well with only a couple of wakings. I gave a detailed report on the Darshan he gave us at the door in the morning. He repeated that Darshan in the evening to the joy and happiness of all the devotees. He is eating and digesting well retaining what he eats. He is actually eating food chewing with his teeth and swallowing. Kitchdie for lunch a few spoons and Dalia (cracked wheat) for dinner. Taking spoon in hand He eats this himself. The Physio Therapist reports he is more active and does his exercises. The Chinese Massage therapist says he is progressing well and very compliant with the treatment. He is walking up and down in the room with assistance and holding up his body on occasion and standing on his own. So by all signs he is demonstrating more strength vitality.
This has just come to me now. Srila Gurudeva woke up in the night and called Madhava Maharaja to him. He embraced Madhava Maharaja with great affection. He repeated this pastime again later and then called for Madhusudana Maharaja (formerly Symasundar) at 1:30 in the morning. At that time he held Madhusudan Maharaja's hand and told him "you sit with me for some time. Why you are not coming to see me everyday? You should come and see me." So Madhusudan Maharaja sat with Srila Gurudeva for an hour or so holding his hand. Such sweet and loving pastimes Srila Gurudeva is enacting with his intimate disciples.
This is Srila Gurudevas mercy and love for his devotees how fortunate we are to be witnesses of this outpouring of love and affection that Srila Gurudeva has for his disciples. Srila Gurudeva loves all of his disciples and he embraces all of us with his love and hold our hands and leads us to the sweet service of the Divine Couple Sri Sri radha Vinode Bihari.

update on Srila Gurudeva`s health
News from Govardhan, November 13th
Dear devotees,
Please accept my dandavat pranams. All glories to Srila Gurudeva and Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga. All glories to Sri Sri Radha-Vinodehariji.
Yesterday, Srila Gurudeva"s condition was stable after a restful night. Devotees commented that in the morning, he interacted with devotees more than the previous day. However, during the day, he had difficulty digesting his prasad. In the evening I was invited to attend the daily meeting of doctors and devotees involved in Srila Gurudeva"s treatment. It was a full house - about fifteen devotees. The topic was simply digestion and nutrition: how to give Srila Gurudeva the nutrition he needs, and how to help him digest prasad better. It was very detailed. Srila Gurudeva is being given very considered and expert treatment.
In the evening, when devotees returned from parikrama, there was a very quick darshan on the large screen.
Last night, Srila Gurudeva rested, but he had some difficulty. There was a brief darshan on the large screen. Pujyapada Madhava Maharaja came in while Srila Gurudeva was resting during the morning program. He said that we should have a positive mood, and pray to Giriraja Govardhan for Srila Gurudeva"s health, because Giriraja fulfills the desires of his devotees. This morning Srila Gurudeva had about 40 minutes of full physiotherapy, and then rested.
It is becoming more and more clear that everything depends on Srila Gurudeva"s desire. It is not so clear at the moment to most devotees here what Srila Gurudeva"s desire is.
