Dear Maharaja
PAMHO. AGTSP. All glories to your service.
Firstly I must apologise. I was having trouble with my Internet connection while attempting to post my last letter (first world problems) and posted several versions of the same letter. I was not getting any conformation so I was concerned that the letter would not arrive. The last attempt I just copy-pasted the body of a word document and forgot to add formalities. I am very sorry for the disturbance.
HpS - ASA - Hain't no disturbanz, Mate!
HpS - AGTSP paoho. Thank you! Have you seen our clip on YouTube of the last big program?
Yes. I have also subscribed to the NIOS channel. You didn’t appear in the 10 minute video?
HpS - ASA -- Radhika says enough.
HpS- When should we come? September??
I think September would be great. September takes up a good part of the second semester but we must be aware that Sat 23rd Sep – Tue 3rd Oct is mid semester break so generally Universities are rather quiet at this time. Maybe we should aim for the first 3 weeks of September?
HpS - ASA -- Durga Puja is Sept 26th.
Rama-vijaya is 30th.
Bengal is on holiday until 30th, I think.
So, 29th August, Radhastami in Hawaii, 3rd September in Australia, Vamana-dvadasi and three more BIG holidays. Hmmmm????? Any comments from anyone????
HpS- Once you have some Participants, Organizers, who are a little interested we can talk to them personally and see what their interests are.
Yes. I’m currently gathering contact details of the organisers and will forward them shortly<sub>. </sub>
<sub>HpS-ASA -- If possible just meet some people personally and introduce yourself, and then give them the link to the Peru conference and then if they want more we can have a conference call etc.</sub>
HpS - We could do a Tour with the same theme the whole way. Academic program and cultural program, distribute. Also, Conference on Cultivation of the Human Spirit is also good, Light of the Bhagavata.
Distribution TLC. NOI.
This all sounds great. Excitement is developing here awaiting your visit.
HpS- Krsna has two dogs, no?
Yes I heard this twice last week. I didn’t know that before. Bonney the Bulldog is a great devotee. She does Japa with me everyday.
Your Servant

HpS-ASA -- As far as we can understand we have to keep ourselves pure: rounds, regs, Sadhana; the Govinda sends innocent people for us to enlighten; and they have to be patient to listen to us >>=====>SANKIRTAN.
Go to Dog Shows and WIN!

Remembrances of Das Raktaka
One time we were in Fazilka with RD, his home town. It was small. You could pass from one side to the other just by walking in 20-minutes. He took us to the Hanuman Temple. It is the biggest temple there. Maybe three stories to the flag. He told us that they were very, very poor when he was a child. Exiles from the civil war in Pakistan. He would go on Tuesday night as a little child with friends. That is the special day of worshiping Hanuman. Many people would come that night and the would beg Maha-prasad. In the morning he would have a big bag of it and his Mother and Brothers and Sisters would try to con him into sharing it with them, but he was very greedy and kept most of it for himself.
