Oh man, the sure way to feel unheatlhy is to have sleeping issues.

Anyway, I have had these bouts of staying up all nights for weeks on end before. They are tough but I doubt this bout will last weeks.

My days have been about 20 hours long nowadays and about 7 hours sleep.

I am amazed at how fresh the head monk walking with other monks and aloka is. He is never tired of hugging, shaking hands and listening to people along the way. It is what i aspire to learn to do because that would be the greatest selfless thing I could do, I who, currently, dont like much people mingling.

They are all so mild and devotional these monks though the head leader is strong words when he says whenever he feels pain while walking it is because we dont pray enough for their succesful trek for peace. this monk appears to rely on faith only and miracles of prayers. I do find that beautiful and share in his feelings. When I entered visionary states for 4 years on and off, I too had total faith in miracles. I still have strong faith in them.
