My Dear Kirtanananda,
Please accept my blessings. I beg to __ receipt of your telegram recommending new initiates. Their names are as follows:
Robert—Vahna Das
Joanne—Visvadhika Dasi
Richkin—Mahabuddhi Das
Robert—Padmanyayana Das
George Crocker—Cirantana Das
Frank Chiesa—Candramauli Das
Ken Karpovich—Krsnasravana Das
Rachel Sullivan—Vedajanani Dasi
I am happy to hear that your program was successful, here also we had some nice programs, and in Amsterdam we also staged a nice festival. So this festival program is very very important and it is especially effective for the mass of people. So go on making festivals and make everyone in America Krishna conscious.
I hope this letter meets you well.
Your ever well wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
