Dear Hanumat preshak Swami

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada


Thank you for your attention. I am aware of your busy schedule. Your letter to me is therefore precious. I became vegetarian 6 years before I met devotees. I was a part of Yoga boom in China. I started to chant 16 rounds 2021. Now I am reading 3rd canto and just finished reading side book, "Servant of the Servant " by HH Tamal Krsna Goswami. I will start with " My glorious master " by Burijana Prabhu as a side book. My husband and myself gave vows on marriage to read together one hour daily and since then we are doing that. It's the best part of the day. Of course, in Krsna consciousness seems that everything is best. Your question from when I am taking sadhan strictly, I would say 2021. Hopefully to always improve. My husband name is Narayan pandit das and he has been initiated 2002 in Baroda, Gujarat, by HH Bhakti Vikasa Swami. He was with you in Brajamandala parikrama 2003 where you spoke about your sadhana. That time he adopted the routine of chanting rounds before mangala arati and he says that saved his life. He is kind hearted and easy going person. Loving husband I have to say.

Maharaja, I am too simple maybe and don't know what more I could say. And if I answered your questions in a proper way. Usually I am in the back and this writing is putting me in transcendental anxiety. I am eager to learn and be corrected. I apologise if there are any mistakes.

PS: My husband is encouraging me to take up the Bhakti Sastra course in Vrindavan this year . Do I have your blessings/permission?

HpS - ASA -- Thank you. All respects to your husband. Such enlivening news.

Seems that you are ready to take initiation if you all want to do it.

You would need letter of recommendation from Temple President or GBC authority, and Disciple Course, certificate.

Waiting for news from you.

Thank you for your association.


As far as I know the Bh. Sastri courses in Krsna Balarama Temple and the Mahavidyalaya near Govardhana are both nice.
