Appreciating Vipramukhya Swami
By Asli Han Aran

Hare Krishna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

This letter is written after reading Vipramukhya Swami's letter, titled "A Critical Letter and My Response."

I live in a country where I do not have the opportunity to go to a temple, associate with devotees, or find books on the transcendental knowledge of Krishna.

Still, Krishna has given me a valuable opportunity through the internet medium. All I learned and still learn is via the internet. One of the sources I have looked at for nearly a year now is the site www.chantandbehappy.com.

And only a week ago, I realized there is only one swami backstage working to create it. Please forgive my ignorance, but can this devotee be an "attention-and-distinction-starved sannyasi"? I do not think so. It is a site full of knowledge and bliss.

I am also very happy to be able to see and write to Vipramukhya Swami live through his humble devotion to serve. I do believe Krishna gives us certain abilities and character, and we should accept and use them in serving Krishna. How nice it is that even in one color, there are unlimited shades. Please consider "seriousness" inside these shades of color. This is how we naturally perceive everything.

I would like to deeply thank all the devotees who are trying to spread transcendental knowledge, using all the technology they can.

Hare Krishna,

Asli Han Aran
