Hare Krishna,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

My rounds have been feeling particularly good lately. Revati and I regularly read Krishna book and Bhagavad Gita. That is nice because we give classes to eachother. We are also memorizing the Nectar of Instruction. We know all 11 texts, but not word for word how Rupa Goswami wrote it. And I've got her memorizing slokas with me.

I'm in the middle of battling Harivilasa about a plane ticket home that was promised to me. Govinda made the promise when he was TP here, and now because he is gone, I feel as though I'm being taken advantage of. Harivilasa made an agreement with me that I could stay until Jan 15, and that if I missed one day of Mongala aratic he would subtract five times from my alloted time to stay. I haven't been able to get a job so I can support myself and Revati, so I've asked for a ticket. He says unless I stay another month and a have he won't get me that ticket home. He clearly stated he just wants me to do labor. Either way, Revati's parents leave the island the 17th, and she would have no place to stay, which is why I am going to take her to Utah, so we can stay with my folks untill things work out for us. So, it puts me in a pickle. It's all Krishna's mercy, anyhow.

I would like for Revati to write to you at the blog. She is a good devotee, and I would like her to have your association. I have been spending more time with her family. They support our decision to be together.

Your lowliest servant,

Bhakta Adrian

HpS -  Jaya!   AgtSP    Wonderful.  Your life seems like the Mahabharata.   Seems you are doing things O.K.     Harivilasa Prabhu seems to be acting in a sane fashion considering how you describe things there.  Between the two same fellows that you are things may work out.    Yes, have Mataji write to the Blog.  Keep looking for a job.  Have her also look.  The wife is the inspiration for economic development.
