I appreciate the American Embassy officer, Chehnnai who laughed loudly when i said- oh where is money for poets,,, yes, while issuing visa for USA to deliver a lecture on Vedic poetry and read my own poems at Loyola Mary mount University - LA , he asked me, if university is paying me , and my reply was - yes tickets, hotel , local travel etc.... he said no fees for reading poetry,,, I said- ohh, where is money for reading poetry ( i did not want to say that in India we should pay to people who come to listen your poetry ) but he laughed loudly and happily gave me visa for 10 years,,,, let Americans learn about indian poetry and vedic literature-- Amin ( :)
