Hare Krsna
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada
Srila Prabhupada could not sleep from yesterday afternoon until 3:00 a.m. Srila Prabhupada said the cause was the kaviraja's medicine. He was still unable to translate.
I asked Srila Prabhupada whether Abhirama's wife could cook. Srila Prabhupada said, "No. In my party there are so many young men. Butter and fire must act. There is no exception. And anyway, where is appetite?" Later, Prabhupada encouraged her by saying that when his appetite returned, she could cook. "In the meantime, let her make experiment by preparing singhara and kachori. I have no disturbance. I make no distinction. I am above these things. She can serve me. But the condition must be that she cooks alone, no man can go in the kitchen. If she needs help, Abhirama can help."
When Rajeev Gupta, the young Hindi translator came, Prabhupada preached very strongly to him. Rajeev reported that one man on the train said to him that the name of India should be changed from Bharata-varsa to Prabhupada-varsa, since Srila Prabhupada had performed even more yajnas than Maharaja Bharata. This statement pleased Srila Prabhupada very much.
Abhirama's wife, Sruti-rupa, began cooking today.
