For the present I have come to Delhi<br />

My small booklet Easy Jou rney to<br />

Ot her Planets is a novel step towards the<br />

path of cultivat<strong>in</strong>g Human spirit. The<br />

Russian scientists are try<strong>in</strong>g to reach other<br />

planets by sputniks but such attempt is<br />

more or less utopian. There are <strong>in</strong>numerable<br />

planets, with<strong>in</strong> the visible sky and<br />

each of them have diffe rent climatic conditions.<br />

Human be<strong>in</strong>g of this planet can<br />

hardly adjust with the climatic conditions<br />

of other planets even if he is able to reach<br />

there by the sputniks. The easy method is<br />

suggested <strong>in</strong> my book which is called<br />

Bhaktiyoga easy to be performed by any<br />

layman <strong>in</strong> any part of the world. By such<br />

pratice of Bhaktiyoga one can reach even<br />

the spiritual sky which is far far away <strong>from</strong><br />

this material sky. But the propagation of<br />

Human Spiritual Culture, your <strong>in</strong>stitution<br />

the International Foundation for Cultural<br />

Harmony, can teach all the people of the<br />

world about the easy method of Bhaktiyoga<br />

which can carry the practitioner to<br />

any other planets even up to the spiritual<br />

8ky. They are all results of cultivat<strong>in</strong>g Human<br />

Spirit. And if you take up the matter<br />

seriously, I can help you also very seriously<br />

<strong>in</strong> co-operation with all important<br />

gentlemen who will arrive at Japan <strong>from</strong><br />

every corner of the world. Please therefore<br />

th<strong>in</strong>k of a programme for execution<br />

by your good Foundation.<br />

My advance copy of speech, which I<br />

have already sent you, together with the<br />

pictographical explanation, may be<br />

formed <strong>in</strong>to one book and the pictures<br />

may be drawn <strong>in</strong> colorful expressive tone<br />

by your good Japanese artist. Japan is famous<br />

for artistic work and India is famous<br />

fo r spiritual culture. We should now comb<strong>in</strong>e<br />

together for uplift<strong>in</strong>g the unhappy<br />

human be<strong>in</strong>g <strong>from</strong> the muddy th<strong>in</strong>gs of<br />

gross materialism.<br />

The Book may be published under the<br />

auspices of your good foundation and if<br />

you like it we can publish many other<br />

books for cultivat<strong>in</strong>g Human spirit.<br />

When I go to Japan I shall carry with<br />

me some important mss of my works and<br />

if possible we shall get them published for<br />

every one's benefit.<br />

After the session of your organised<br />

session of the Congress I wish to make an<br />

extensive tour <strong>in</strong> Japan, Ch<strong>in</strong>a and U. S .A.<br />

fo r preach<strong>in</strong>g the Cult of Human Spirit<br />

and I shall be glad if you consider this proposal<br />

with due importance.<br />

All great sages of the world like Lord<br />

<strong>Krishna</strong>, Lord Budha, Lord Chirest,<br />

Hazrat Mohammed, Acharya Shankar,<br />

Acharya Ramanuja, Lord Chaitanya, all<br />

lived for enlighten<strong>in</strong>g men on this culture<br />

of Human spirit. And men like us should<br />

follow their foot pr<strong>in</strong>ts for all round welfare<br />

of the human society. Your Foundation<br />

has rightly taken up the cause <strong>in</strong> due<br />

time and I have my full co-operation with<br />

you. Hope you are well.<br />
