[Guest guest]

I appreciate your dedication to the cause, dear friend Acharya.

In your next visit to Mumbai, you can visit us. I will then take your

photographs by digital camera and then my son Robin can help

you to upload them on your website.

 

The other alternative is, if someone has taken digital photographs

of the 5 exercises, these photographs can be sent to us as

email attachment. We will then improve upon them and upload

them after consulting you.

 

For both services we will NOT charge you, since you are doing

good work.

 

Very best wishes

Dr. Leo Rebello
