Hare Kṛṣṇa, Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
After leaving Dubai, we moved to Māyāpur, where I was blessed with a service opportunity in the Māyāpur Treasury Office. However, after a year or so, we had to leave Māyāpur against my desire, as my wife underwent a major hip replacement surgery in South India.
My wife convinced me that there is huge potential for preaching in this region where our village is located.
Just before Kārtika month, we visited Vṛndāvana, and during Kārtika, we conducted Dāmodara ārati at 25 to 30 different places. Many people appreciated the kīrtana and the narrations of pastimes and invited us to their homes.
Last month, we started children’s classes in our village for 25 children. I lead the kīrtana and group chanting, while my wife teaches the ślokas and narrates pastimes.
With your blessings, Guru Mahārāja, we are planning to start a Sunday program in our area.
Your humble servant,
Rāmanātha Kṛṣṇa Dāsa
