710812 - Letter to Sankarsana, Parasara, Pulasta written from London
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
August 12, 1971
My Dear Sons,
Please accept my blessings. Upon the recommendation of His Grace Visnujana Maharaja I have gladly consented to accept you three as my duly initiated disciples. Your beads are duly chanted on by me and are enclosed herewith. I have given the spiritual names as follows:
Sankarasana Das (Stephen Bridge): Sankarasana is another name for Visnu.
Parasara Das (Ron): Parasara was the father of Vyasadeva.
Pulasta Das (Chris Pinkard): Pulasta means name of a great sage.
Visnujana Maharaja tells me that in his absence, while he is opening one center in San Antonio, you three boys are maintaining nicely there in Austin. So you are all very qualified and you have been trained up under the expert guidance of Visnujana Swami. So you should all work cooperatively to push on this movement there in Texas and make our Austin center a grand success. That is my request to you all. Always be engaged in Krishna's business and stay fit in spiritual life by strictly following the regulative principle, by chanting at least 16 rounds of beads daily and without fail, by studying all our books and by regularly going for street Sankirtana. These make for our very strength in spiritual life and if you will follow them faithfully then your going back to home back to Godhead will be certain.
Hoping this will meet you all in good health.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami.
