284 <strong>Letters</strong> <strong>from</strong> <strong>Srila</strong> Prabhupiida<br />

to comment upon the Gita differently.<br />

Doctor Radha-<strong>Krishna</strong>n and company are<br />

of the same class. This class of men have<br />

no right to touch Bhagavad Gita because<br />

they do not come through the parampara<br />

system. I shall be glad to hear <strong>from</strong> you; if<br />

you are prepared, to go with me when I<br />

next return to India maybe with<strong>in</strong> the next<br />

4-6 months.<br />

I shall be glad to hear <strong>from</strong> you how<br />

Kirtanananda is recover<strong>in</strong>g <strong>from</strong> <strong>in</strong>juries<br />

of recent fall. And I hope you are well.<br />

Your ever well-wisher,<br />

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami<br />

Dear Guru das & Yamuna devi,<br />

Be good boy and girl and always chant<br />

the HARE KRISHNA mantra and you<br />

will be so pleased with the result.<br />

Yamuna you are little better than<br />

Janaki but don't get puffed up and be good<br />

to those a little less fortunate. Guru das<br />

your work is so nice and you are a very important<br />

member of our society. You and<br />

your wife work so well there shall never<br />

be any problems.<br />

Your ever well wisher,<br />

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami<br />

My Dear Brahmananda,<br />

Please accept my bless<strong>in</strong>gs. I am <strong>in</strong> receipt<br />

of your letter ofJan. 11, 1968, along<br />

with the letter <strong>from</strong> Menno Hertzberger<br />

and Co. I th<strong>in</strong>k this man will not be suitable<br />

for pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g of our books. I shall be<br />

glad to hear <strong>from</strong> you if you have received<br />

any reply <strong>from</strong> Dianippon Pr<strong>in</strong>ters <strong>in</strong> Japan.<br />

In the letter of Mr. Krimpen it is understood<br />

that pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> India, Hong<br />

Kong, and such countries is cheaper.<br />

The suggestion of Mr. Kallman of<br />

<strong>Krishna</strong> Consciousness Kit is very nice.<br />

Please try to fructify this idea as soon as<br />

possible. As there is still time to get Bhagavad<br />

Gita ready published by MacMillan<br />

Co., Mr. Kallman may not come to S.F.<br />

so quickly. I am expect<strong>in</strong>g to return to<br />

N.Y. by the end of March or beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g of<br />

April. At that time, he may take the record<strong>in</strong>g<br />

of <strong>Krishna</strong> Consciousness speech<br />

<strong>in</strong> 3 gramophone records.<br />

Regard<strong>in</strong>g Brijbasi affair: You can<br />

send the copies of letters and their acceptance<br />

receipt of money may be sent to Sriman<br />

Hitsaran Sharma, as follows: Pandit<br />

Hitsaran Sharma; Radha Press, Ma<strong>in</strong><br />

Road; Kailash Nagar; Delhi-3 1, India.<br />

You can write to him all details about the<br />

deal<strong>in</strong>gs of Brijbasi Co., and <strong>in</strong> my name<br />

request him to take it very seriously. They<br />

are respectable firm; why they are l<strong>in</strong>ger<strong>in</strong>g<br />

this matter? If there is s<strong>in</strong>ister motive,<br />

which we cannot believe they have, then<br />

we have to take steps aga<strong>in</strong>st them. Request<br />

Hitsaran Sharma to deal the matter<br />

seriously and on his report we shall take<br />

necessary steps. Hitsaranji may <strong>in</strong>struct<br />

his younger brother to take up this matter.<br />

I am also enclos<strong>in</strong>g one letter herewith for<br />

Hitsaranji which you may enclose with<br />

letter to him.<br />

Regard<strong>in</strong>g Bhattacharya Emporium<br />

letter: I have handed over the copy to Mukunda<br />

for necessary action. Bhattacharya's<br />

charges are high; as I have already<br />

<strong>in</strong>formed you, there is a complete arrangement<br />

for supply<strong>in</strong>g our goods <strong>from</strong><br />

India. I have already made them; there is<br />

no difficulty. First of all you decide whatever<br />

you want to import, then I shall beg<strong>in</strong><br />

to give you directions. The arrangement is<br />

complete. There will be no difficulty to<br />

import cloth, <strong>in</strong>cense, musical <strong>in</strong>struments,<br />

and so on. The shipp<strong>in</strong>g element is<br />

there, and the carry<strong>in</strong>g arrangement is<br />

there, now you decide what you want to
