Dalai Lama tours America and leaves some long haired hippie to run things in his absense
I wonder if the road to Rutgers would have been as enlightening ; ). Little known fact: it rains alot during monsoon season.I havent been this wet since
a.janet jackson performed at the superbowl
b.michael jackson taught me how to beat it or
c. tito jackson (what did tito jackson do again?).
Anyway, its wet out here.not much to do except drink chai and lounge at one of 100 cafe's round here. I think there's more computers here than in NY. quite a paradox considering most people cant feed themselves. speaking of food, what the hell am i eating? It's bright orange, gooey, fried and was wrapped in old newspaper.let me wait till that monk takes a bite first, ok looks good. never know when you're paying 10 rupees(20 cents) for a snack. course the best chai never costs more than 5rupees. Headline on the newspaper its wrapped in says "Jackson Beats it". wonder if that was the first or second time. Oh well, the monks seems content with it. I always say if its good enough for a monk, yeah i'm a little bored.
Starting my vipassana in 2 days and guess i'm a little anxious. 10 days of silence, no where to go but within. that's scary! there's alot of suppressed, repressed, unpressed, depressed, buried away, bright, orange.gooey, fried stuff in there.
Hey, it says june 15th on the newspaper my foods wrapped, (what month is it again?) Its the Times of New Dehli i'm sure its clean.
I just cant bring myself to pay 200 rupees for an umbrella when my hotel only costs 250 a night and dinner's round 70. probably why i'm not the only wet tourist.

Hey Matthew,
It must be very interesting to be there during monsoon season. It seems monsoon season is equivalent to our winter, a time when we are forced to go inside and experience our ownselves. Our own hearts and minds. It is very exciting to hear about you going into silence. I took a retreat once where I was in silence for 3 days, except for our daily chanting. After 3 days I was filled with so much power and energy. It was incredible! My teacher Gurumayi said in the New Year's message "Experience the Power within. Kundalini Shakti." "The Power is for the good of all." May you fully experience the power within!!!
Peace! Your friend- Donald
