Dear Devotees,

Hare Krsna. Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila
Prabhupada. All glories to Srila Gurudeva.

Yesterday Guru Maharaja for the first time spoke few words with great
difficulty. The speech was recorded by Ekanath Gaura prabhu with his team
members. HH Radhanatha Swami Maharaja, HH Bhakti Purushottam Swami Maharaja,
HG Braja Hari prabhu and Ananda Tirtha Prabhu went to see Guru Maharaja. The
doctors placed the speaking valve to enable him to speak.

guru-mukha-padma-vakya, cittete koriya aikya,
ar na koriho mane asa

“My only wish is to have my consciousness purified by the words emanating
from his lotus mouth.”

Vrndavan meditating on our love and gratitude to you and praying to Sri
Radha and Krsna to help you to recover. All over the world the devotees are
united in doing kirtan and praying for your good health. It was beautiful
before each evening lecture all the 4000 devotees were together and we would
began by hearing an update and the report of your health condition and then
we would speak about you and then we would all take some minutes in prayer
for you and kirtan for you. It is beautiful to see how much devotees love
you from their heart and hearts with such deep gratitude for your compassion
and a lifetime of devotional service. Even non devotee doctors and nurses
are developing faith by seeing how miraculuosly Krsna is healing you. Even
in this condition you are preaching, uniting devotees hearts, giving people
faith. There is nothing that can be done to keep you from being an empowered
preacher. You’re seriously affecting devotees hearts. It brings us joy to
see this. Especially brings us joy to see how miraculuosly you are
recovering.

We are almost there

your servant Atmananda Das

From: Maha Varaha prabhu

I was on a night shift today with Madhava Kanta Prabhu. When we reached the
hospital, Dr.Sagar from the Bhaktivedanta Hospital told us that GM is
sleeping now as he is little tired of breathing on his own from 11.30am.

I asked Dr.Sagar to find out if it is possible to feed GM now. He said we
can feed GM as soon as he wakes up. 30 minutes later GM woke up. I went
inside the ICCU and asked him whether he would like to have his dinner now?
GM didn’t reply anything. The nurses who were beside GM asked him the same
question, still we didn’t get any reply. I told GM that he must eat
something so that he can build up his strength to walk, speak etc.

At around 9pm me and Madhava Kanta Prabhu fed GM with chickpea and vegetable
mixed soup. He ate about 8 spoons. At one point he started to cough and then
he stopped taking the prasadam. Dr.Anamika who was on duty insisted GM to
eat more. GM shooked his head in disagreement. Finaly i gave some water for
him to drink.

After drinking the water he was trying to say something. But Doctor told him
to relax since he is breathing without the support of ventilator. GM fell
asleep 20 minutes later. I went inside the ICCU at 5am to check GM’s
condition. The nurse told me GM is back on ventilator at 4.15am. I rubbed
his hand gently and he opened his eye. I put Sri Sri Radha Madhava picture
infront him for his morning darshan. After 10 seconds he closed his eyes. I
understood that he is exhausted of breathing on his own the whole night.

Sent to us by Maha Varaha prabhu:

HH Jayapataka Maharaj’s status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of
Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai

Maharaj has been off the ventilator for 24 hrs. He’s maintaining oxygen
saturation. Doctors are continuing to give encouraging reports. The oral
feeds are going on. Please continue to pray intensely.

20th Nov 2008

6:30 am Dharesh and Rasa Gopal prabhus were serving GM by singing songs.
When I went inside the ICCU, GM was trying to say something. I told him that
today we will save all his energy to taking him out of the ventilator. He
agreed. GM was going to receive some physiotheraphy and massage. GM’s hands
were swollen. His legs and feet were dry. Therefore we applied cream to his
hands and legs and gave a massage. When we left the hospital his hand
swelling was gone and totally normal!!!

GM ate 12 spoons of oats and 8 spoons of kitcheri in the morning.

Your servant,

Ekanath Gaura das
