Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

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

Thank you for your reply. It is nice to hear that you consider I'm doing well. I wish I could agree... It's one of the only things keeping me steady. Really 

As time goes on.. more and more drama is developing. Starting to get really really bad. All the Bhaktas are realizing that we are going to have to take matters into our own hands. We made a pack that if one doesn't get up for Mongala Aratic by 415 he gets a cup of water in his bed from the rest of the Bhaktas who are awake! :) I'm looking forward to it. All in good spirit, with love. Nothing malicious.  

Japa rounds this morning.. only two before Mongala Aratic. The rest done before ten. I'm not sure if Harivilasa does all his rounds by then..I've never chanted the pre-aratic japa with him, So I can't say I know for sure. All the devotees are missing his presence here. He is the preferred authority among the Bhaktas. 

I originally decided to stay here until March, then return to Utah. Unfortunately all the other Bhaktas are talking about leaving. They are having a hard time with what is going on here these days. Much tension. I'm the only one who has made a commitment to stay. I'm hoping I can get some of these guys to make the same commitment, but it is doubtful. But now I'm not sure I want to go back to Utah. 

I'm not sure about ASA. I haven't taken the time to read up on it, so I'm unfamiliar with the program. I just want the personal association and guidance of my Gurudeva. 

Your servant,

Bhakta Adrian
