Dear Gopal Krishna Prabhu,

Please accept my humble obeisances. I am in receipt of your letter dated 12-12-76.

I have read your whole Letter to: His Divine Grace and the following is an account of His remarks.

About the cox and Kings three day trip to Vrndavana, He said “nice work”. Regarding teaching other kinds of yoga, so that we may advertise an 8 or 9 day course for tourists, Prabhupada liked the idea. He said, “That will be very attractive. Other types of yoga are mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita. We can adopt that. Three or four men I can teach how to do it. Then you’ll be able to attract them. I can teach how to sit down, posture, asana, pranayama, without any difficulty. The yoga system as mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita we can take up, that will be bhakti-yoga, Use one or two of the big rooms in the Gurukula building. I can teach the teachers how to practice.” You, Sarvabhavana, Dhananjaya and Mahavira were mentioned by Prabhupada as prospective teachers. About the Earthquake conference, Prabhupada said, “That’s nice, very good.

Regarding holding up printing due to lack of funds, He said, “Don't hold up printing, money will be provided.”

Regarding Gurudas Prabhupada said, “Gurudas’ work in Poland is more important. So, if you actually require an assistant, I’ll give you one very good assistant. When, I go to Bombay I shall arrange for that. Will Gurudas go to Vrndavana to live at Radha Damodara at least for one week as an experiment?

That’s all. Hoping this meets you in good health.

Your servant,
Jagadisha Das

From: a Letter to: Satadhanya Swami (President of Calcutta)

after receiving an ecstatic report of Sankirtan in the Hiamlayas: "When Srila Prabhupada heard how all over the Himalayas people are hearing of Krishna Consciousness through books, He said, "The devotees all over the world are doing the greatest service to Caitanya Mahaprabhu. There is no comparison to their service. I am only an instrument to give you guidance. Actually you are all born to spread Krishna Consciousness all over the world. Go on more and more. The books are selling. That is our greatest success. I am very much pleased."

Then after hearing the Sankirtan Newsletter Vol IV No 12 Prabhupada stated, "Can any Babaji and Goswami do such distribution? All they can do is wag their tails. They have such big tails!" and..."The big books are selling more than the other sizes. It is beyond my imagination. This news gives me more vital force."
