We met with the Indian Opposition Leader this morning, Mr L K Advani. The meeting was a great success. Govinda Maharaja spoke clearly and convincingly about the situation, and Rati Manjari made clear the real legal predicament the devotees are facing. Mr Advani committed to speaking to the President, Mr Man Mohan Singh, and the Foreign Affairs Minister. He was clearly onboard, asking all the right questions, and going right to the heart of the matter. Indradyumna Swami rated the meeting 8 out of 10, and said it would have been a perfect 10 without the technical hitches we experienced with the video, although it certainly had the desired effect on Mr. Advani.
