My dear Satswarupa, Accept my blessing. I am in due receipt of your letter of 4/1/68 and I am glad that you have solved the hospital bill of Pradyumna.

One thing you may inform all devotees that Maya cannot touch a pure devotee: When you find a devotee is supposed in difficulty it is not the work of Maya but it is the work of the Lord by His Personal internal energy. The Pandava's tribulation in so many ways, Lord Ramchandra's departure to the forest, His wife the Goddess of Fortune's being kidnapped by Ravan, Lord Krishna's death being caused by the arrow of a hunter, Thakur Haridas's being caned in 22 market or Lord Jesus Christ being crucified are all acts of the Lord personally.

4/3/68 [handwritten]
My dear Satswarupa, Accept my blessing. I am in due receipt of your letter of 4/1/68 and I am glad that you have solved the hospital bill of Pradyumna. I am so glad to learn that he is taking part in Istogosti. His answers are very much intelligent. I have fixed up date for going to N.Y. on the 17th.
