My glum feeling continued, which I shared under `Elephant's bathing' post. I felt very gloomy the whole evening and did not know what to do. Should I share with anyone, Sumeet Prabhu or Karuna Prabhuji ? Or should I share with my Guru Maharaj or HG Rukmini Krishna Prabhuji and tell them how much I can fall. Let them scold me.

After one morning walk, we returned to our Ambassador car and Syamasundara could not get the key to work in the ignition. He tried for several minutes.
"Srila Prabhupada, something is wrong," he said. "This is not going to work. I'll go get a cab."
