<div class="text">'''[[Vanisource:Letter to Brahmananda -- Tittenhurst 28 September, 1969|Letter to Brahmananda -- Tittenhurst 28 September, 1969]]:''' Regarding MacMillan's letter, I have forwarded the same to Gargamuni and Tamala for consultation before final decision. I have not heard anything from them till now. If the matter is urgent, you can consult with them and whatever you all decide, that is my decision. Now, gradually I am trying to hand over the management to the reliable hands of my disciples, and you should all work by joint consultation, without any friction. Now, by the Grace of Krishna, we are expanding and we must work in such a way that our society may stand a solid institution. In this connection I shall request you not to circulate all my letters that I address to you. Letters are sometimes personal and confidential, and if all letters are circulated, it may react reversely. I have already got some hints like that with letters I sent to you regarding Kirtanananda and Hayagriva. So in the future please do not circulate my letters to you. All my letters to you should be considered as confidential, and if you want at all to circulate, you just ask me before doing so.</div>

<div class="heading">Regarding Manipur, you said that there is a Govinda temple there and that they are willing to hand over the management.</div>

<div class="text">'''[[Vanisource:Letter to Svarupa Damodara -- Los Angeles 23 June, 1975|Letter to Svarupa Damodara -- Los Angeles 23 June, 1975]]:''' As you say you are thinking of retiring from the university, yes, as you are not a family man, you can do it for better service to the Lord. Regarding Manipur, you said that there is a Govinda temple there and that they are willing to hand over the management. I think somebody came to see me in India about it, but I don't exactly remember the name. The best thing will be for you to retire and take charge of such a noble project.</div>

<div class="text">'''[[Vanisource:Letter to Bhagavata -- Evanston, Illinois 5 July, 1975|Letter to Bhagavata -- Evanston, Illinois 5 July, 1975]]:''' 

My Dear Bhagavata das:

Please accept my blessings. Tripauri Swami is starting his bus preaching program, and you are required for this purpose. You are a good preacher. I very much like these bus programs. They are greatly increasing the scope of our book distribution and many new men are being attracted. So you should immediately come here to USA. You may hand over the management of Calcutta affairs to Bhavananda Maharaja.

I hope this meets you in good health.

Your ever well wisher,

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

<div class="text">'''[[Vanisource:Letter to Bhakti Pramode Puri Maharaja -- Vrindaban 7 September, 1975|Letter to Bhakti Pramode Puri Maharaja -- Vrindaban 7 September, 1975]]:''' Yes, it is Bhagavan's special mercy upon me that I am getting such immense wealth. You will be pleased to know that my books are selling to the extent of one million of dollars per month. But this money is coming from the mlecchas and yavanas. That is the difficulty. This money is not coming from the brahmanas. Therefore I am afraid to contribute to you as you request. How shall I give to you and pollute you?
They are all mlecchas, and you are a rigid brahmana, pukkha. So how will you accept it? If you like, you can hand over the management charge of your temple, and my devotees will manage.</div>
