My dear Narayana dasa,

Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated June 10, 1975 and have noted the contents.

Regarding your report on Hanuman, I am forwarding your letter to Hrdayananda Goswami who can present this problem to the GBC for their solution.

I have accepted Saunaka dasa for 2nd initiation. His thread and mantra sheet are enclosed. Let him hear the tape of myself chanting the gayatri mantra through his right ear.

I hope this meets you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

My dear Narayana Dasa,

Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated March 4, 1975 and have noted the contents.

Hanuman is not GBC. If he cannot work under Hrdayananda Gosvami, then he must work under me. He cannot be independent. I never said he was GBC. You should continue your programs there under the direction of Hrdayananda Gosvami.

If Hanuman wants to preach there as long as he does not create any disturbance, he can preach there. I am enclosing one letter to Hanuman which you may present to him explaining his position.

I hope this meets you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Svami

My dear Hanuman,

Please accept my blessings.

I have received one letter from Narayana dasa, saying that he has been informed by some of your men that you are GBC there and that he must subjugate to your authority. I never said that you were the GBC there. You cannot say that. If you are unable to work under the direction of Hrdayananda Gosvami, then you must work under my direction, but you are not independent.

You cannot interfere with the programs that are now going on there. If you can work co-operatively, that is wanted, but if you cannot work with Narayana, that doesn't mean that you can disturb his program. He is working hard under the direction of Hrdayananda Gosvami. He is not under your authority.

If you want to preach there, that is alright, but you cannot interfere with the work that Narayana is doing. If there is any difficulty, we can discuss it in India.

I hope this meets you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Svami
