18 September 2008 Thursday, 18 September, 1975 Vrndavana My dear Sushil K. Arora, Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated September 11, 1975 with enclosed check for 250 rupees. I thank you very much for it. I am glad to know that you have appreciated our movement and are taking active interest. I very much enjoyed my stay in Toronto and I hope that everyone there, all the devotees, especially amongst the Indian community, will co-operate to spread our movement in Toronto and establish a very nice temple. I hope this meets you in good health. Your ever well wisher, A. C.

O'Connell St. Michael's College University of Toronto My dear Sripada Bon Maharaja, Please accept my humble dandavats. When I was in Vrndavana, I was informed that you were staying in New York, but I do not know what is your address. Now, I understand that you are staying with Professor Joseph T. O'Connell. So, I am addressing this letter to his care and I hope you will receive it. One of my disciples informed me that you had been in our Toronto temple. Now, I invite you to come to Hawaii. The climate is very nice here and I wish that we may pass a few days together in this nice climate. I hope this meets you in good health. Your obedient servant, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami ACBS/ps Labels: Bon Maharaja, Hawaii, Toronto letters | 04:26 |2 February 2008 2 February, 1975 Honolulu My dear Duryodhanaguru das, Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated Dec. 17, 1974 and have noted the contents. I want that someone learns how to make mrdangas in the Western countries. As far as I know Isana has not produced any mrdangas. So how will he teach your wife how to make them. First let him produce something, then he can teach others. I have no objection. If somehow or other someone can learn how to make good mrdangas in America, it will be a great service. Please study my books very carefully and do not fail in chanting at least 16 rounds daily. I hope this meets you in good health. Your ever well-wisher, A. C.

I am in due receipt of your letter dated Dec. 31st, 1974 and have noted the contents. Yes. The way that you should make the altars is that there should be three separate rooms, doors, and altars. That will be very nice. Thank you for your wonderful sankirtana results. It is very pleasing to me that you have sold so many books. Now, continue and increase.
