A “5 minutes� Seva to our Sadgurudeva

[Guest guest]

Dear Datta family,

 

Jaya Guru Datta

 

Sri Swamiji felt very happy when informed that some of His books and CDs were

placed by devotees in the Houston Public Library System recently. It would be

wonderful to have Sri Swamiji’s Healing Music CDs, DVDs, and books in every

major public library, and important branch library in the US. If each one of us

puts in some timely effort, together we can make this happen by this Guru

Purnima.  I am earnestly requesting your help. It is easy.

 

Most public libraries have a policy that items received as gifts or donations go

directly to book sales through Friends of the Library, and not to the library

shelves for circulation to patrons, unless there is a specific request from the

patrons of the library for those items to be placed in the collection. This is

where your help is needed.

 

If you have a library card, (if not, please obtain one), use it to put in a

written request at your local public library (you can do it in person or

online). Submit a list of items that you would like the library to acquire, of

Sri Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji’s books, CDs, and DVDs for the benefit of

the community, including yourself, your family and friends.

 

If you put in the request, and let me know, I will contact the concerned

librarian to offer to donate some of the materials (courtesy dycusa) from the

list to the library. Let us work hand-in-hand to make this a successful project.

 

I will be happy to send you an email attachment of a descriptive list of

selected items that are available, and newspaper articles about Sri Swamiji, to

give to the librarian along with your request. You may choose specific items

from the list for your local library, and I will try to include some of them in

the package, if they are willing to accept the donation.

 

Kindly do it within the next few days.  It will take time for the materials to

be shipped, cataloged and added to the collection after we succeed in making

the libraries agree to  accepting the items.

 

This will be a very significant seva that every one of us can perform. Please

let us do this. Swamiji will be very happy. I am sure many persons will benefit.

 

Please reply to my email address if you wish to participate in this seva. Thank

you all. I pray for Sri Swamiji's blessings and guidance for this effort.

 

Hira

Sri Guru Datta
