711125 - Letter to Ratnesvari, Lokanatha, Vrajasundari, Yogescandra, Varahadeva, Nalinikanta written from Delhi

Berkeley

My Dear Sons and Daughters,

Please accept my blessings. Upon the recommendation of Locana I have gladly consented to accept all of you as my duly initiated disciples. Your beads have been duly chanted by me and they are sent under separate post. I have given you the spiritual names as follows:

Joan Cerando

Ratnesvari dasi

Larry Batcheldor

Lokanatha das

Barbara Batcheldor

Vrajasundari dasi

John Warren

Yogescandra das

Beverly Warren

Varahadeva dasi

Tom Hopke

Nalinikanta das

I am so glad to learn that all of you have been such a great help to Locana there in our Berkeley centre. I can understand that all of you are very sincere boys and girls and are very eligible candidates for going back to home, back to Godhead. And the process is simple. Follow the regulative principles, chant at least 16 rounds of beads daily, read our literatures, go for street Sankirtana, etc. In this way keep yourselves engaged in Krishna's business 24 hours and you will be really happy in this life and in the end reach the Supreme destination.

Hoping this will meet all of you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
