Lucky "13" & "2" Tickets

Dear Maharaja Hanumat Presaka Swami,


pamho, AGtSP!


Responding to our group email about the ticket-sized flyers, with an accompanying picture. The basis of the "tix" is that my pamphlets are constantly getting depleted, and I need something to hand out when approached, so, voilah', Double- QR (quick reference) codes and non-committal information card.


The QR codes can be changed for different locations, along with the "blurb" for local facilities. We'll see how it goes, I've handed some out to the local Temple authorities to review... nothing yet, guess "no news is good news."


Also, in our last letter, you mentioned reading the 10th canto Purports, and I'm doing so. There are some long ones too, so I went and documented just the purports for easy reading, and am still reading them (that Lord Brahma can be a "rascal" sometimes).


HpS - Jaya! As far as I know srila prabhupada left his body during the 14th chapter, so i don't know how many of those purports are his.

also hrdaya ananda gos. et al, commented that srila prabhupada elected parts of the commentaries of visvannatha goswami et al to put in his purports, but they felt incompetent to include and reject different parts so they ended up with longer purports than Srila Prabhupada.


Finished Nirjala Ekadasi and now am on a Lemonaide juice fast-purge. Can't believe how gross these bodies actually are! Have noticed reductions of flem and mucous and voice changes, sharper enunciation for some reason, sure good for japa. I won't mention the other effects thus entailed. ; ~)


ASA - The 'muladar chakra'.


Looking forward to "normal" dining and a scoop of ice cream someday, that is, if I live through this. Still have a few more days to go, and the diet recovery is slow. At least I learned some caution from the 2008 fast, where a recovery smoothie and burrito almost killed me. I'm going to Love Soups for starters now..."sluurrp".


All your traveling and preaching is so nice that your vehicle is cooperating. We review your schedule as you go along and hope that we may rendezvous at some point soon.


All glories to your service,


Your grateful servant in training,

Caitanya Caritamrta das, das anu das.


HpS - AgtSP, Thank you. THANK YOU. T H A N K Y O U!


Your service is challenging example for all of us.


NOTE: Looked at the cards. Little had to read.

We face exactly this same problem.

Don't know how to solve it perfectly, but regular business size cards seem essential. Sometimes there are double wide, folded in half cards.

Bigger pamphlets with little philosophy, eg. one purport to LOB, that fit into chest pocket also seem practical idea.
