Dear devotees my humble pranams. Jaya Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Giridhari Gopinath!

It's a special blessing when Krishna personally intervenes in your life with a message that you have no choice but to listen to. It's touching to the heart to see Krishna's personal hand to teach us.

In that regard, we just tested positive for covid. I'm very sick, very, very weak and can hardly move. It's a good lesson to help us become more serious about our bhajan and detachment from matter. We are taking advice from a devotee doctor in Bhaktivedanta hospital who heads their covid division. She strongly advised me that I should not do any excercise right now. Even I should not go for walks. She said that I will need every bit of my strength to fight this. Based on that, and the way I feel, I have to apologize I won't be giving class for some time.

Your servants, Madhavananda Das and Krishnakund Devi Dasi.
