My Dear Devananda,<br />

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

due receipt of your letter dated March 12,<br />

1968, and I thank you very much for it.<br />

Your s<strong>in</strong>cerity and desire for do<strong>in</strong>g some<br />

service for <strong>Krishna</strong> is very much encourag<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to me. Please go on chant<strong>in</strong>g nicely,<br />

and steadily. Chant<strong>in</strong>g 16 rounds is prescribed,<br />

but you can chant more rounds<br />

and hear them very attentively.<br />

If you are not satisfied with your cook<strong>in</strong>g<br />

engagement, tell Brahmananda to give<br />

you some other engagement. But it<br />

doesn't look well if you change <strong>from</strong> one<br />

center to another for some convenience.<br />

Everywhere service to <strong>Krishna</strong> is the<br />

same, but if you are feel<strong>in</strong>g some <strong>in</strong>convenience,<br />

then you may <strong>in</strong>form Brahmananda,<br />

and get some relaxation by<br />

change of duty.<br />

Thank you for the dried mango; I am<br />

so glad to receive it. I like it very much<br />

and please go on send<strong>in</strong>g it every weekand-a-half,<br />

or every two weeks . I like<br />

very much.<br />

I hope you are well.<br />

Your ever well-wisher,<br />

very much for it. Yes, by <strong>Krishna</strong>'s Grace<br />

all obstacles have been removed. We all<br />

may be removed, and by Grace of<br />

<strong>Krishna</strong>, they have all been removed, so<br />

of the Lord. We should have faith <strong>in</strong><br />

His Power, His Grace, and His Causeless<br />

Mercy,<br />

Hop<strong>in</strong>g you are well<br />

Tower is concerned, you may drop the<br />
