My devotion is weak :(
I was so miserable with gastroenteritis or whatever I had, that I decided it was best not to try to attend the Kalachakra. For the first 3 days when the main teaching were held, I would make sure I got close-enough where I could listen to them on the radio (Tibet Om Cafe).

He's expected to remember it. And it's not like he has anyone to distract him as I'm the only customer in the restaurant when I place my order (I think by now you know where this is going).
