Thanks. Some of these I might try. Especially Magister Ludi sounds interesting. Have read Jonathon Livingston and Orwell and Siddhartha but it's been over 10 yrs

It seems my food isnt offerable to Krsna if there is garbage in the house. It only gets picked up once a week and my parents arent too keen on cooperating keeping the house clear of it, at least keeping it all in the garage. Do you think I'm having illusions about this? It really does seem to affect the food and I cant even eat it . ..said composting would draw flies, and nobody's going to be hauling it every day to anywhere . ..is there a mantra for this?

I have a theory that when you rub your eyes when they itch you can get pieces of fuzz stuck in there; I did not notice my floaters until after I had itchy eye syndrome associated with allergies starting when I was about twelve, the same time I started wearing contact lenses/glasses also

Has this become illegal? Or is it only in college environments? I have never seen devotees anywhere else .. .I miss . .NEED prasadam and my cooking is no good .. .Is there a lack of funding or just lack of interest by the public

Can I have recommendations for books that are worthwhile reading but are not specifically about the Hare Krnsa religion or its philosophy? I dont want to get too deep into specific Vedic reading or anything very serious right now, but also do not want to read 'worldy fiction' or that kind of thing. Autobiographies or Biographies or somewhat light but nonmaterialistic reading would be what I'm hoping for . ..gotten out of the habit of reading and want to start out light and dont want to filter through a bunch of books that will be mostly unenlightening

Ever since I decided for sure to be celibate, I have had debilitating fatigue and strange symptoms that come and go. Right now it is like I have rabies, 'foaming' at the mouth and excess salivation (but other than that just irritability that I am able to control). Could it be that something related to celibacy is causing me to absorb soap through my skin into my stomach and if so what can I use to clean myself if not soap? Also I have a terrible mucous problem-it seems to suddenly appear in my sinus cavity all throughout the day. I have not eaten eggs in months, I have become malnourished after giving up eggs before and went back to them; but this time I gag them up raw after eating them. What might this mucous problem be and how might I fix it, could it have to do with eggs I have eaten in the past, or eggs other people eat? I can almost not eat, knowing that my parents are eating soy product with egg white in it
