My dear Ramesvara Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet.

Kindly send me immediately the information regarding the double transfer of $10,472 from the Security Pacific National Bank, Los Angeles. We need confirmation immediately from you as to whether or not we paid the bank once or twice. Please do not delay anymore in sending this information.

Srila Prabhupada is ecstatically receiving the Sankirtan Newsletter as well as your monthly report showing how book distribution is doubling. There have been no substantial book distribution quotes from His Divine Grace. Otherwise I would have sent them to you. But every report which we receive and which I read to Him, He is literally ecstatic about. I did ask Him, Srila Prabhupada, You are not disturbed by my having to read these reports to You, are You? And His Divine Grace replied, "Book distribution is my life." His Divine Grace also said, "If book distribution increases, I will never die. I will be living for centuries." So Maharaja, double it! Hoping this meets you well.

Your servant,

Tamal Krishna Goswami

Secretary to Srila Prabhupada
