I went through a phase of being called on to do satsang pretty frequently, so I had some practice at being in front of a crowd making stuff up.

Around that time, I was due to present my final project as a 3rd year student. It might have helped if I had put some time into doing the project instead of hitching round Europe going to events. So, even though I did hardly any work and had nothing to say, I figured my best chance was to bluff it - after all, that's exactly what I'd been doing in satsang so often.

When my turn came to make my presentation, I got up in front of lots of students and some of my tutors, and realised I'd made a terrible mistake. There's some stuff you can make up, and then there's stuff you can't. So I stood there, saying nothing at all, until the head of department took pity on me and came up on the stage and led me off.

If only my all knowing Perfect Master had known some microbiology, and could have fed me some lines.

One of my most embarrassing memories.
