Letter to Abhirama -- Los Angeles 1 December, 1973:

My Dear Abhirama,

Please accept my blessings. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated November 14, 1973. Regarding the initiations, I accept the following as my initiated disciples:

Richard Richman—Raghava das

Joel Peir—Caitanya Jivan das

Paul Baker—Sriman Pandit das

Carl Franzen—Sulochana das

Howard Wilfield—Narahari das

Neils Hertz—Vallabha Sen das

Barbara Drehl—Bhuvana Pavani dasi

Holly Franzen—Sulochana dasi

Patti Welfield—Bhagavat Sakti dasi

Maureen Hertz—Ragunandini dasi

So you take instruction from Rupanuga Maharaja on how to properly perform the yajna after he has chanted on their beads. Each disciple should go for collecting guru-daksine after the ceremony and the proceeds may be sent here c/o Karandhara.

I hope this meets you in good health.

Your ever well-wisher,

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
