O brothers! This material body is a network of ignorance, and the senses are one's deadly enemies, for they throw the soul into the ocean of material sense enjoyment. Among the senses, the tongue is the most voracious and verily wicked; it is very difficult to conquer the tongue in this world. O brothers! Lord Krsna is very merciful-just to control the tongue He has given us the remnants of His own food! Now please eat these nectarean grains while singing the glories of Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha and Krsna, and in love call out "Caitanya! Nitai!" 35 Vâñchâ-kalpatarubhyas ca kripâ-sindhubhya eva ca Patitânâm pâvanebhyo vaisnavebhyo namo namah 36 Hare Krishna! 37 38 This are your suggestions.. • • • • • • • JK Parents serve food for their children For water, we will drink only in the kitchen Parents to check if plates are promptly disposed Voluntary help to hosting family If can’t attend a week, please let the host know Help in loading equipments for next pgm Also try vacating the place early after the program 39 BK Happy Birthday! • • • • Saketh (June 26) Arushi (June 29) Tejas (Jul 1) Anupama (Jul 4) 40
