770623 - Letter to Ghanasyama from Tamal Krsna

June 23rd, 1977

From: Tamal Krishna

My dear Ghanasyama Prabhu,

Please accept my humble obeisances. I have been instructed by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada to reply your report from Yugoslavia dated June 12th, 1977. His Divine Grace was extremely enthused to receive your glorious report. He also appreciated the humorous style of your writing and commented about it. Srila Prabhupada stated, “My books are the real Communism. I am working for the whole human society. My philosophy is to unite the human society on the basis of Krsna Consciousness, and that is actually happening all over the world. Why a black man is working for me and a white man? How much potency our Ghanasyama has! Practically he is preaching in the jungle. They do not even know his language and still persons are giving standard orders. He is so empowered. I never expected Standing orders from these Communist countries. Now I can understand that they have lost all sense. But still there is hope – this Krsna consciousness.”

I can honestly say that of all reports received by Srila Prabhupada whether regarding book distribution or management, yours are the topmost in enthusing His Divine Grace. Kindly continue your glorious activities. There is no doubt you have gained a place within Srila Prabhupada’s heart. Hoping this meets you well.

Your servant,

Tamal Krsna Gosvami

Secretary to Srila Prabhupada

P.S. Srila Prabhupada’s health is maintaining and His Divine Grace is translating every evening. Please send more such reports and have the other members of the party do so also. They are, as Srila Prabhupada says, “My life.”
