Dear God Family, Disciples and well-wishers of H. H. Jayapataka Swami Maharaja,

Guru Maharaja looked fresh and alert this morning though he said he felt more tired than yesterday. He still did his exercise by Krishna’s mercy. Guru Maharaja felt some difficulty in breathing therefore an ultrasound of the lungs was done. The doctors found fluid on the right side. They tapped some fluid in the afternoon and will tap more later on today. They also did an ultrasound of the liver and it seems to be doing well.

Guru Maharaja’s hemoglobin is now holding up and we hope it will improve. He has been started on semi solid food today. The Doctors feel that nutrition should be our focus at this moment to build his overall strength. This can significantly help many issues including his breathing. So our prayers for Guru Maharaja should be for him to be able to eat well and consistently without disruptions.

Doctors are also keen on discharging Guru Maharaja so that he will see some sunlight and be in a different environment at home as that may help him get better. Let us collectively pray we get to this stage soon.

Kindly organize more programs for joint intense prayers and kindly post details on www.jayapatakaswami.com as that will greatly please Guru Maharaja and help him to recover faster and achieve his dedications to Srila Prabhupada.

On behalf of the Health Team and JPS Seva Committee,
Your Servant
Mahavaraha Das
