Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you.

By your mercy, Gurudeva, I am continuing my Sadhana as I reported to you last month. In addition, because I am on break, I am reading Srila Prabhupada's books for one hour every day, as you suggested to me a few months ago. I memorized eight verses from Srimad Bhagavatam 1.2 and am working on learning the Sanskrit meters of the verses we encounter in Sastra.

HpS - ASA -- Amazing!!!

Gurudeva, I was wondering if you could kindly instruct me on how I can serve you during this time. I always remember how you say that one should become a third-class servant and follow the Guru's instructions, before trying to become an advanced servant and act based on one's opinion of what the Guru might desire. 

Your insignificant servant, eternally indebted to you for your mercy,

Sugopi Radha devi dasi

HpS - What kind of nice people have you found in the world? Could Shakespeare become a devotee? Any nice books by people eg. Socrates? Others?

Go looking for people, living or dead, who can become devotees.
