4 December 2008 Wednesday, 4 December, 1974 Bombay My Dear Atreya Rsi das: Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated November 18, 1974 with enclosed letter about the restaurant. Why you could not come to India? I had wanted you to come to discuss some matters. Bhagavan dasa also wanted you to come. Anyway I know the people of Tehran they like hatha yoga very much. I understand Parivrajakacarya Swami is teaching a course combining both hatha and bhakti yoga to attract the people. This is a very good idea. Somehow or other inject the bhakti yoga. That will save them from the degradations of sense gratification. Regarding the restaurant, what kind of restaurant it will be? The people of Iran are very rich and they can supply money for this purpose. I hope this meets you in good health. Your ever well wisher, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami ACBS/bs Labels: restaurant, Tehran, Yoga Club letters | 06:58 |19 August 2008 Monday, 19 August, 1974 Vrindaban My Dear Atreya Rsi, Please accept my blessings. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated July 28th 1974. I am glad to note that you had nice Rathayatra festival for the Indian community there. I am especially pleased to note that for Vyasa Puja and Janmastami you have so many Iranian devotees there. This is your real success if you can convince the local men to become Krishna Conscious. This is preaching. You know that I went to your country America alone. None of my godbrothers helped me. But, I was able to convince you to become Krishna Conscious. Now you can convince others. This is Krishna Consciousness. Please increase the preaching activities there and I will surely visit you there on the next opportunity. I hope this meets you in good health. Your ever well wisher, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami ACBS/bs/ps letters | 20:56 | 24 July 2008 24 July, 1974 New York [To Atreya Rsi] URGENT. IMMEDIATELY NO SUITABLE PLANE GOING DIRECT TO BOMBAY. YOU ARE INVITED TO VRINDABAN FESTIVAL A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Labels: Tehran, Vrindavana letters | 03:52 |4 April 2008 Thursday, 4 April, 1974 Bombay Dear Atreya Rsi, Please accept my blessings. Very suddenly Tamala Krsna Goswami underwent treatment for a surgical operation for a hernia. Now he is completely invalid and cannot move. It will take about two weeks more to recover, and then he desires to go to the U.S.A. for preaching work, and retire from the GBC. We have discussed about you because immediately you have no portfolio. I am now in India, so in my presence another GBC may not be required, but if required in my absence, my question is whether it will be possible for you to take charge? Kindly guide me how it will be possible, while keeping you occupation intact. Your ever well-wisher, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami ACBS/sdg letters | 21:01 | |
