Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to Guru parampara.
Gurudev, Thank you so much for considering my name for second initiation.
HpS - ASA -- AGTSP paoho. We sent a letter to Temple President and mentioned Siksa-guru with copy to you yesterday asking for their approval! Second initiation is preparation for 3rd initiation, Goswami. Are you thinking of going through Grhastha Ashrama or going directly to Vanaprastha or Sannyasa???
You can send mail directly to our temple President H G Radheshyam Prabhuji, also mention my local Shiksha Guru’s name.
Gurudev, Have prepared note on SB for 7 days SB, for preaching purpose. Find below the SB topics for 7 days.
Below topics will be covered in 7 day SB Katha. Please advise.

ASA - From 9-on seems too advanced unless you have advanced students. Of course, in the 1st and 2nd canto we see summaries of these later cantos and avatars. Who is your audience?? Is very good project. You should start BhVai as soon as you take second initiation!!
This notes has been prepared for door to door preaching.
ASA - Aaaaaaaah! For that seems you really need to stick to first two cantos. Of course, Prabhupada puts so much information in there about later cantos. You just have to find it. Monkey and Piggy have a ton of stuff in the archives on the first two cantos: pdp... It is it useful???
Thank you, Guru Dev.
your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das
HpS - Thank you sooooo much of this work!!
