These 'monks' are too funny! But there is a bit of irony here, too. I'm on vocal rest - not speaking. It's interesting how much you can get done in the public sphere without speaking. The pharmacist quickly figured out what was up, and put my stuff aside so when I came back I didn't have to ask for ...

Maitreya told me after the incident that I did, indeed, owe the woman a small karmic debt and that it was not repaid, despite the money being given back with interest.
