374 Letters from Srfla Prabhupada
There is no need of sending the Ishopanishad
here; I shall be in N.Y. in 2
weeks, we can discuss it at that time.
So far my name is concerned, there is
no need of adding Tridandi Goswami, but
simply have it as A.C. Bhaktivedanta
Swami, as it is already done in my other
books , it will be continued. I made the title
page sent herewith, and you will see it.
You have to make the contents page for
TLC. I have not got any copy of the book,
neither it is possible to mark page numbers
until we get press copy from the
printer. But table of contents page is necessary,
so please see to it. I do not like for
Sri Bhaktivedanta Swami, A. C. Bhaktivedanta
Swami is shorter, and nicer.
Hoping you are well.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

My Dear Satsvarupa,
Please accept my blessings. I am in
due receipt of your letter dated March
19th, 1968, along with copies of Srimad
Bhagwatam and I thank you very much.
The astronomical calculation is that every
3 years, 1 month is added, so the year in
which 1 month is added, that is always
calculated as consisting of 13 months.
Otherwise, generally it is 12 months in a
year. At present I am keeping the copies
as it is, and I shall see again and do the
necessary corrections.
I am very glad to see the Boston temple
photos; and it gives me a nice idea. Offer
Pradyumna my blessings and congratulate
him on his coming back from the hospital.
Please take care of him as best you
can. You have not said anything how his
hospital bills has to be paid. I have already
written to you that if need be, then I can
pay something from my book fund. Otherwise
the bills may be paid by installment,
as it is learned from here. I am
going to N.Y. on the 17th of April, and I
think I shall have to attend some meeting
in the Philadelphia University on the
25th, and then I shall be free to go to Boston,
and you can make your programs accordingly.
I am very glad that Jadurany is preparing
signs on account of my visits there.
Please offer my blessings to Jadurany,
Pradyumna, Jadunandan, Jai Govinda,
and others who are there.
The boy of the name John, who was
sometimes in Boston, he came here to
meet me . I asked him to stay in the temple,
but he's not in the temple, nor I have seen
him again.
Hoping you are all well .
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

My dear Satswarupa,
Accept my blessing. I am in due receipt
of your letter of 4/1168 and I am glad
that you have solved the hospital bill of
Pradyumna. I am so glad to learn that he is
taking part in Istogosti. His answers are
very much intelligent. I have fixed up date
for going to N.Y. on the 17th .
One thing you may inform all devotees
that Maya cannot touch a pure devotee:
When you find a devotee is supposed in
difficulty it is not the work of Maya but it
is the work of the Lord by His Personal internal
energy. The Pandava 's tribulation
in so many ways, Lord Ramchandra's departure
to the forest, His wife the Godess
of Fortune's being kidnapped by Ravan,
Lord Krishna's death being caused by the
