730000 - Letter to Ranadir written from Unknown Place
Undated
My dear Ranadhir,
Please accept my blessings. I beg to thank you for your recent letter (undated). You will be glad to learn that your good mother, Mrs. Weil, came to see me a few days ago, and she is as good lady as her son is a good boy. She talked with me nicely and she appreciated our movement as a religious revolution. While going she paid me 5 pounds as contribution. So a good mother means a good son because the son acquires the qualities of the mother. In Sanskrit it is said phalena parichiyate. This means a tree is appreciated by its fruit. So you are the good fruit, and naturally your mother is also very good.
Thank you for the $15 maintenance check. This means the management is going very nicely. So now, instead of asking money from others, you are paying money to others. Hare Krishna. Please take care of the boys and make them future good brahmacharies like you.
I hope this will meet you in good health.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
