My Dear Advaita,

Please accept my blessings. I hope everything is going on well with you, your good wife and child and ISKCON PRESS. I have not heard from you in some time, but I am sure that you are steadily advancing in Krsna's transcendental service.

I have written as you know to Dai Nippon regarding the printing of Bhagavad Gita As It Is, but I do not know what is the actual position of the manuscript. Neither I know whether you want to print this book with Dai Nippon or on ISKCON PRESS. In San Francisco the Indians wanted to pay $20,000 for the printing cost, so what is the position now? Are the pictures ready? the index, Sanskrit and English editing, the missing purports, layout, composition, etc.??
Please let me know the right information by return post. You know how much I am anxious to see this enlarged edition of Bhagavad Gita As It Is printed and also we are being requested for this book from all parts of the world, so everybody is also anxious.

Hope this will meet you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,

A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
