My Dear Pradyumna,
Please accept my blessings. I have received your questionnaire note for tape No. 20, and the answers are as follows:

1. Pg. 9 line 14 you can make it Kartikeya.

2. Pg. 9 line 15: In my Srimad Bhagavatam it is written Sri Sailam. At that time it was known as Sailapura, and now it is known as Solapura. It is still a pilgrimage in Mahar, and because Balaramaji was traveling in South India, this is Solapura is in South India.

3. Pg. 9 line 18: yes, Dravidadesa is correct.

4. Pg. 9 third paragraph: Bvankatachaila is incorrect. It should be Venkatacala.

5. Pg. 10: panda is correct
