Letter to Ajit Kumar Chatterjee


Mayapur Candrodaya Mandir

Dist. Nadia, West Bengal

12 February      76


My dear Ajit Kumarji,

Please accept my blessings. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 7th February, 1976.

The message of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was to give the same message as Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita: "surrender to Krishna". The pastimes of Radha-Krishna relationship are confidential and are not for the distribution to the ordinary public. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu used to discuss with Svarupa Damodar, Ramananda Ray, Sikhi Mahiti, but not publicly. Ordinarily he was chanting the Hare Krishna mantra with ordinary devotees at the Jagannatha temple. So I think you should not discuss Radha-Krishna pranaya-vikritih openly among ordinary conditional souls.

I hope this meets you well.

Your ever well wisher,

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
