AGTSP paoho. How are you all? We are in Houston, in the Sannyasi Palace, next Nila Madhava and Radharani's little bower. It's like 5.36PM. Our health is like 70% improved. This diet and more regular life style is the medicine wee needed.
Today we had meeting with ISKCON Ministry of Education, Executive Committee. Was really productive. We are making progress. ISKCON needs a lot of help. Your help. Take charge of our Spiritual Master's movement.
Now let's look at the Letters to the Editor, and we'll post a letter to Dr. Kitisikis. He's retired Emeritus Professor in the History of International Relations from University of Ottawa and listed in seven different international "Who's Whos". He's the father of Nrsmhananda Das.

Ya Hara Krsna!
Dear Hanumatpresaka Swami,
I would like to receive from you some information about the outcome of the event at the Indian Museum of Kolkata, that took place on May 23rd-25th. I communicated with my son and got my text right. Did he read it and represent me at the Seminar?
I am asking you a favor: Could you please go on Google, to the Wikipedia French article titled Nicolas Kitsikis. It concerns Nrsimhananda das' grandfather.. .

Hallelujah! Esteemed Professor, It makes us very light hearted to receive your communication and requests. Fact is that in May we were under so much pressure with our efforts in Europe, Manipur and especially the Museum program in Kolkatta that when we final started to slow down and head back to USA all the internal stress to our body started to come out and we had intense inflamation, sores in the throat, tongue and mouth. Three consulted doctors and ayurvedic doctor of tremendous ability all said that it was reuslt of nothing but too much stress for 65 year old fool and that rest and extremely simple diet was necessary.
After one month, June, of light work we were like 85% normal but then we have begun a long planned North American tour and the last two weeks in Mexico, though we have adjusted a lot, brought us back to almost the same condition as when we left India.
So we are learning our lesson: Dress our age.
That is actually quite nice as there are many young men who are quite eager to run around and organize events but only need the general perspective that an informal advisor like us can provide.
However, even though one result of the Museum event was difficult, the general result was beyond belief. Yes, Nicolas, presented your paper on India as the upper planet and it was one of the central columns of the perspective of the event.
Participants included Sri Mukundakam Sharma, former Justice of the Supreme Court of India, Syamal Kumar Sen, sitting judge of the Kolkatta High Court and former Governor of West Bengal. There were several heads of universities and many excellent papers on the theme, Contribution of Classical India Toward Making a Better World. It is a fact, India has so much to offer to making a sane world.
In general, our institute, NIOS (North American Institute for Oriental and Classical Culture) is finding amazing reception to ideas from the classical world cultures at this point.
We hope to have the proceedings of the Seminar read for distribution by January next year and then we would be very honored to send some copies to your good self.
At a more appropriate pace we will be in USA until October 7th, South America until December 7th. USA until 1st February, then Europe, India and Australia until 7 March. The last part is still being fixed. We expect to leave this body in November 2024. Only 12-more years and how many will be productive in what ways. Hmm.
With NIOS we are making some very fine movies of which I will send you the link. We are also now focucing our annual event on the topic of "The Phaedo and Oriental Wisdom, Light of the Bhagavata". We will be sending a call for papers and this week and then presenting selected papers in the begnning of September at our annual event.
We will certainly send you that call and hope with great ernestness that you can guide us in this area. We already have strong response from our academic community in South America to the project. Making art exhibitions, movies, dramas based on the Phaedo alone is attracting much attention there, what to speak of the the contrast with the Bhagavata. Ending hear we wish to thank you so much for your essential support. Nrshmananda Das represented you and your perspective so much a the Seminar that it felt to everyone they were having the opportunity of personal contact with the author.
Thus let us say: Thank you, not only for ourselves but also for all the organizers of the event, especially Professor Samaresh Bandyopadhyay who was generously felicitated at the event and whom I am sure is eager to discuss and debate any ideas on ancient Indian history and culture with your good self.
We are not computer competent for the Encylopedia work that you requested but we will look for someone to do it. As soon as possible.
Please contact us for any other service as we can offer.
