Letter to: Yamuna
Los Angeles 24 December, 1968 68-12-24

My Dear Yamuna,
Please accept my blessings. I thank you for your letter of December 16, 1968 and I have noted the contents carefully and with pleasure. So far as the mistake on the certificates, I think that only on the certificates to be given to brahmacarinis is it necessary to change the spelling, because on the brahmacari's certificate this word Srimate will be crossed out. So on the certificates for the brahmacarinis, you may cover the letter "e'' with a white paint and insert the correct letter "i'', making the word read "Srimati''. So do this nicely and it will be all right. It is all right to read the books you have mentioned, namely Swami Bon's Bhakti Ramsamrita Shindu and Caitanya Caritamrta by Nagendra Kumar Ray, but you will be pleased to know that we are now composing the Nectar of Devotion, which is a complete summary of the Bhakti Rasamrita Shindu. Regarding the translation by Bon Maharaja, it is only one quarter of the complete work and I do not know if the other parts will come out very shortly.
So please convey my blessings to your husband, and I hope that you are both well.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Link to this page: https://prabhupadabooks.com/letters/los_angeles/december/24/1968/yamuna Previous: Letter to: Gurudasa -- Los Angeles 24 December, 1968 Next: Letter to: Malati -- Los Angeles 24 December, 1968
