Bombay,

April 13, 1976

From: Pusta Krishna

Honolulu

My dear Sukadeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances. Prabhupada is leaving for Melbourne the 18th April, then to New Zealand on the 23rd., then to Fiji the 25th April. So after Fiji is Hawaii, so we require the tickets to be sent to Melbourne immediately. Kindly inform the temple where they can be picked up if they were sent pre-paid. Also, the ticket should be Fiji to Hawaii. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami (first class), D. Harrison (first class), and P. Dossick (economy class). Furthermore, Prabhupada has asked that Pradyumna will also come with for helping with Prabhupada’s translating work. However, Pradyumna will fly from Bombay directly to Hawaii and he will meet us there. So send his ticket to Bombay and inform him here in Bombay where his ticket can be picked up. Please do all these things immediately. Prabhupada must do a lot of translating so don’t set up programs outside and if there has to be guests, then it must be restricted to 5 p.m. only till about 6:30 each evening. If things are nicely arranged, then Prabhupada will stay there some time to translate.

I trust you will send the three tickets to Melbourne and you will send the fourth for Pradyumna (P. Sherbow) in Bombay immediately. We can not enter Fiji without an onward ticket.

Haribol.!

Your servant,

Pusta krishna Swami

Personal secretary
