The immediate programe of work is to find out some suitable place for the central office as also to provide the place of residence for the workers. When I was at Jhansi, I was provided with a big palatial building to live in associated with 40 workers who are being trained up for intinerary preaching work. The expenses were about Rs 1000.- per month. I approached the Govt for help but even after one year no definite decision could be arrived at by the Govt and the matter is still pending. Jhansi was a poor place & I shifted to Delhi. My associates were therefore disbursed & I came to Delhi to give it a new life. Delhi is the only centre where from this cultural movement could immediately be given effect because it is the centre of international political, social educational & cultural movements. What I want to do immediately are as follows:-- (1) To hold consecutive meetings at different Mohallus & houses of Delhi for impressing the ideas of the mission. (2) To give training to at least 7 to 10 educated young men in the "parampara lessons of Bhagavad-gita" and then to "Brahma Sutra," Bhagavata & Caitanya Caritamrta (3) To publish an English monthly paper to sell specially to the English knowing heads of the society and to get printed some relative literatures __. A meeting of the executives has to be called for discussing the above subjects but before doing so I wish that you all gentlemen may kindly fill up the typed membership forms enclosed herewith--so that following your foot prints other members of the public may __ members of this institution in large numbers. Thanking you in anticipation. Yours faithfully, For the League of Devotees (Reg. J.S.) A. C.
