Morning again woke and slept around 4/4:30 - frustration, so slept after Suprabhatam also, till 6 o'clock! But games, so just had to workout till 6:45, returned with Gopi Sir's nod to bathroom where bucket had been kept. But had decided, would be very unwasteful of time at least now. So, morning 4 o'clock etc letters and record writing / cassette song selection / AVC. Other times strict study.
Thursday program (during the first hour at college auditorium) - Maynard Ferguson! Put Peavey mic and extra speakers. He spoke of his experiences - Japan heat could play / Swami made him nervous in 1975, gave necklace. Played some with audience clapping beat, cassette of yet to be released album - Sai suete. Afternoon did freq. response of CC amplifier, Zin / Zout left for tomorrow.

Bhajan time, found I wasn't concentrating on You! Again, Trayee, Anil Kumar Sir and Mr. Rama Raju, "Pativratas", hogged the show, I caught myself not looking at You! When I can't think of You when You are present, how else?
Anil Kumar Sir - Bhagavata parallels - Mr. Rama Raju conversation in Telugu: Good if someone builds Rama temple, but not like this - same God - Sannyasis have to obey sannyasa dharma, not do such things. Government has the right. P. M. had phoned, could I come for half an hour. I said no time; all that security work for half an hour?
Anil Kumar Sir told us, Queens of Mexico, Thailand, Kissinger, all came to Swami. Swami told PV's son, 'You'll be minister, and your father PM!' Told Shivraj Patil he would be Speaker when his name was not even shortlisted! Saved engineer from fall at South Prasanthi (like Prahlada). Took form of PRO for 2 weeks when he didn't have leave! Karunyananda's servant, to receive him at his place!
