Manjari Bhava Article Fantastic
By Mahaksa dasa

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

I am the "other" Mahaksa dasa written about in an early CHAKRA article. I am writing to express appreciation for a wonderful article on your Philosophy page, titled "Attaining Manjari Bhava". This story is the sweetest thing I have read on the internet in a long while, and am full of nothing but said appreciation to the author who has given it to us.

Please inform the person who penned this of my encouragement (author to author), as I know that though praise is not sought by the devotees, it helps if our service is writing. Also I hope the editors of CHAKRA have noted that I am quite different in my writings that were attributed to me in that early story, which I did not take any offense to at all. I had heard "rtvik" for the first time back then, and was investigating, but have rejected the ideas pretty much wholesale, without reverting to rtvik jokes and undue criticism of proponents, I might add.

Anyway, keep up the good work,

Your servant in cooperation, Mahaksa dasa

PS I would like to know the author of the piece, if you could forward this letter to the author, perhaps a response would let me in on the identity, however, I totally respect confidentiality.

Hare Krishna
