Dear Gaurachandra,
At first, I thought negative of you. I`m
sorry. I should have answered your views
but because of pride, I did not join you.
But you are never lost to me because I
think I know you. Not because we have
met in person but because of the books.
You see, when I got interested in the
Krishna consciousness movement 12 years
ago, it was made complete when a child
hood friend, Mr. George Martinez, talked
me into joining ISKCON. But I refused
because of my Catholic upbringing. Cecil,
my wife would have none of it either
since she is a devout Catholic. Thus, I
just kept this to myself, not involving
my family, resulting to living a double
life.
Mr. Martinez, in short, lent me his books,
Srimad Bhagavatam. His spiritual name is
Gaurasundara das. Thus, those books I have
with me( Mr. Martinez is in New York) carry
the names Gaurasundara das, books which I
always treasure until my next life. Your
name I`ll never forget because of the books.
May you be my best friend.

Hare Krishna
