My Dear Radhapriya,

Please accept my blessings.

All glories to His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

Preachers have to be tough in their determination. They have to be willing to face almost constant rejection without being discouraged. Some will take a book. Some will not take a book. A devotee is not disturbed by this duality. He tolerates it and goes on to the next person to again try to bestow mercy.

Chant your 16 rounds, attend the morning program, do your prescribed duties, study the books. But always remember that mastering the art of sankirtan yajna is the topmost sadhana.

I hope this meets you in the best of health and in an ecstatic mood.

Always your well-wisher,

Sankarshan Das Adhikari
