CENTER &nbsp; Hayapalli, Bhubaneswara 12<br />
Orissa, Dist Puri

Dear Giriraj,<br />
Please accept my blessings. I have received your letter of January 28, and read the contents.<br />
Yes, train the others in responsibilities in Bombay, and go on as you are doing.<br />
In five days at Kumbhamela we were able to distribute 30,000 pieces of literature. Therefore we can expect to receive 1 lac collections per month from all the centers.<br />
It is good news hearing good preachers like Jagat Guru and Sridhara Swami Maharajas, and Madhavananda are arriving to Bombay to push on the membership, other preaching and collecting.<br />
As for your plan to invite university students to spend the weekend, it is very good; do it.<br />
Hope this meets you in good health.


Your ever well-wisher,<br />

N.B. I have received a letter from the Bombay secretary, Aditya dasi, requesting me to sign a number of legal forms for the bank. Neither you or Gopala Krsna have even signed or initialled an approval, so how can I sign these forms? If you actually want me to sign them please write me your approval with regular signature.
