         Pear Tamal Krishna Maharaj:

         Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
         T am writing this letter to you in regards to the recommendations of the
         North American GBC comittee that I suspend my CBC and Guru functions,
                                                           leaders of my zones,
         After due consideration and consultation with thegood
         Bhagavan Maharaj» Hridayananda Maharaj and your       self, we have
         formulated the following decisions which we hope will satisfy both the NA
         OBC men and all of my sincerely concerned Godbrothers.

                 1, I would like to resign all of my GBC zonal duties in North America.
                 2, I would request a leave of absence from any GBC and initiating
                           duties until the Mayapur festival 1989.
                              of Australasia are proposing that you kindl
                 3, The leaders                                           y consider
                                                          c assistant GBC
                           Balarama Dasa prabhu to act as the ad-ho
                           representitive for the Australasian Zone. He will repre  sent the
                           zone which we will manage through a zonal coun cil to  be  made up
                           of ali the temple presidents and regional secret aries  in  the Zone.
                           I shall sit upon that committee as a member only.
                                                                            of 5 of the
                  4, The zonal committee has selected an ashram council dealin
                      jJeaders to monitor standards of sadhana, perso nal         gs, and
                      ashram in the zone. It is our request however that,     at the  annual
                       3BC meeting 1987, clear standards he set for  ali  GBC  membe  rs
                       «




                                                                              terms  of
                      Gurus, and all managing officers of the society, ineveryone adher  their
                      sadhana, personal deaJings, and ashram, and    that                   e
                       to them or accept any consequences enjoined iin those standa   rds.

                    , At the Mayapur festival 1987 our Australasian council will request
                  WG




                           that an additional Guru, to be named by the council, begin
                           preaching and      initiating in the Zones

               6. Regarding the initiations at our festival in October,         the zonal
                     council feels that they should proceed for the following reasons,

                      a) The full body of the GBC resolved that I would be free to
                         resume that duty on Oct. ] 1986. The Australasian leaders have
                         been preaching and encouraging on the basis of that
                         authorititive resolution.   They feel   that to change at   this
                         point would cause extreme confusion     to   the new devotees
                         as well as to all of the initiated diciples. This in turn
                         would undoubtedly cause more disturbance to the zone and to
                         Srila Prabhupada's BBT remittances.

                      b) Some of the new devotees have heen waiting 18 months to 2
                         years being fully aware of my situations and knowing that
                          another Guru will be initiating in the zone. They are still
                          committed to taking Diksa from me.


          In light of all    the above conditions that we are proposing we genuinely
          hope that as many GBC men as possible accept them and give me their
          blessings to proceed with my Krishna consciousness in a peacefull mood.


                                                       ce of Srila Prabhupada,




                            OKOKY
                            mi.
