Wow, thanks for all that... I live near Cape Town so I will visit one of the centres as soon as I can. I must thank you again for all your help and effort.

I haven't received my e-mail on visiting the guru though... I am not surprised however, as a non-devotee is in charge of the Bhakti-society at my University. He is coming tomorrow and now it seems as though I won't be able to see him. It's a shame.

Hare Krishna!
