Dear Prabhus,<\/p>\n

Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.<\/p>\n

As you may know, Malati Prabhu has inspired us to compile some of the memories of
\nSrila Prabhupada\u2019s women disciples. We hope this compilation will preserve for
\nposterity Srila Prabhupada\u2019s legacy of exchanges with his women disciples and will
\nillumine still more facets of his glories \u2013 how his reciprocation with them endeared
\nhis women disciples to him and gave them life-long inspiration and guidance.<\/p>\n

We humbly request all women disciples of Srila Prabhupada who had personal
\nexperiences with him to provide material for this book. After so many years your
\nlife is still reposed around Srila Prabhupada\u2019s lotus feet. Why? Your answer to this
\nquestion will form fragrant flowers for this garland of memories we will offer Srila
\nPrabhupada together, with gratitude and love. <\/p>\n

Please contact us at daughtersofsrilaprabhupada@gmail.com to arrange for us to
\ninterview you or for information about writing or recording your memories and
\nsending them to us. We will facilitate you in any way you require.<\/p>\n

In advance, thank you over and over for your cooperation. This project belongs to
\nall of us and its success depends on all of us, Srila Prabhupada\u2019s loving daughters.
