770625 - Letter to Krsnanga from Tamal Krsna

June 25th, 1977

From: Tamal Krishna

Dear Krsnanga Dasi,

Please accept my obeisances. I have been instructed by Srila Prabhupada to reply your letter.

Srila Prabhupada assures that if you follow the regulative principles very strictly and chant faithfully minimum 16 rounds daily, there is no doubt that you can return back to home back to Godhead in this very lifetime. As far as being contaminated by seeing a death, yes, seeing a death is contaminating. However it is advised in the Vedas that such contamination is immediately nullified by chanting the Hare Krsna mantra. Therefore because you are always chanting Hare Krsna, you will not be affected by any such contamination. If you feel still contaminated, it is only in your mind, because for one who chants Hare Krsna, he transcends countless sins which may have been performed in the past. Go on reading Srila Prabhupada’s books and chanting faithfully and make your life perfect.

Hoping this meets you well.

Your servant,

Tamal Krsna Gosvami
