Diary by Guru Maharaja (Coimbatore, Bangalore and Kolkata visit)

I reached Coimbatore 26th-Jan-2011 night. I saw the auyervedic doctors on
27th-Jan-2011 they started the therapy for healing and detoxing which
include leeches. Leeches suck bad blood as much as they can and fall off.
These are medicinal leeches specially selected by ayurvedic doctors.Krishna
avatar Dhavantari carys leeches in a hand.

I stay in Hare Krshna ashrama in local ISCKON temple and and I am going
daily to ayurvedic hospital for leeches treatment.

So far the redness on my legs decreased and wounds are getting  better. On
29th we had inauguration of student centre for 40 devotee youth and on
sunday january 30 we had installation of Ananta Sesa for new temple and
project at coimbatore. I went to the hospital for a week for leech
treatment. The leeches suck only the bad blood and they are then put into
turmeric where they regurgitate the bad blood. The five leeches used in my
treatment are used only for me and then they are retired to the pond; they
are not killed. Lord Dhanvantari holds a leech on His hand. This is part of
the ayurvedic medical treatment. The Arya Vaidya Pharmacy in Coimbatore
waived all the charges for the medical treatment and doctor visits as a
special case. While I was there I was visited by one disciple of HIS
HOLINESS Sivarama Swami – Kanchana lila devi dasi as well as by one disciple
of HIS HOLINESS Indradyumna Swami who were there for treatment. They also
liked the treatment. In the  AVP hospital campus there is temple of
Dhanvantari incarnation of Maha Vishnu incharge of Aurveda with small
temples around it dedicated to Hanumanji, Bhagavati, Uma shankar,
Lord Shiva, Durga, Lord Ganesha and Lord Kartikeya etc.

Treatment lasted for a week . On the 3rd I saw  the doctor to evaluate the
progress and he was happy that wounds had almost healed. He was happy that I
was staying in mayapur and he gave medicine for the next two months.
Every night I give class on the internet.Some time between 8pm and 10pm at

In Bangalore they kept me very very busy. I was there 3 days. The first day
we had award giving For the book marathon. We recognized children program
called Krsna Kingdom, youth Vrnda the young school girls, boys youth program
and vaishnavis the ladies program and bhakti vrksha. The iskcon Jaganath
Temple was packed with devotees overflowing over one thousand. Second day
was initiation ceremony at Iskcon Laxmi Narashima temple which also crowded.
Third day was the Ananta Sesa installation at new Iskcon project in South
Banglore where the existing Jaganath Temple would relocate. On the way back
we stopped at Mathura BACE, ashram of young guys. They practice KRISHNA
CONSCIOUSNESS while studying and some while working. Before leaving I also
addressed the vaishnavi ladies who gathered there. I am trying to encourage
them.

On 10th I arrived in kolkata and gave a class on lord Advaita on Advaita
Saptama – the appearance day of lord Advaita. On 11 we had a special prize
distribution ceremony for the december book marathan and a mini convention
for all the local bhakti vrksa and other members of the congregation. On 12
