Then we got a copy of a Yahoo mail to Radhika raman Das from our Organizer, H. G. Bali-mardana Das:

Hare Krsna Prabhu,

Pamho, agtSP,

We moved the conf date to Aug 12th now. I hope the new date will still fit into your schedule, we are looking forward to the presejntation, The idea is to have 25 Mins duration for each presentation, 


Would you please provide the topic and the abstract so that we collect the info and build a better schedule this weekend.

Any preference of the day? (Aug 12-15)


Your humble servant

-Balimardana das-


Along with Gandharva Das, Gopi-gita Devi Dasi, and others, we have been having regular meetings to organize and promote the Annual Symposium, but then Bali commented that there were some doubts about the Symposium by Tapan misra Das, Executive Secretary, and then explained to us with some detail the dialogs that resulted in this postponement.

In some aspects it is a fantastic shock for us. We are thinking our esteemed friend TMD must have gone mad.

In other aspects we are noting that just this week we changed our SB and NOI schedules. So, we hope we can hear more from Tapan, and Bali will give us some more details to publish here.

In any case, will try to cooperate whole-heartedly with the Ministry, but we can see that already we have a Seminar on Light of the Bhagavata at the same time as some of the days. 😮


Furthermore, with ASA we will have our own little preliminary symposium on Education with/in ISKCON on the dates already planned:
