Dear Friends An appeal
By His grace Lord Krishna had fulfilled my prayer to have a book about Him written, printed and published in time for book release planned for JANMASHTAMI CELEBRATIONS on 31.8.2013 at Chennai. I shall send you very soon personal invitation for the function which please await as we will be finalising it in tomorrow's meeting.
The book had been designed by Sri Sundaram Ramachandran, ardent Krishna devotee and Secretary of SREE KRISHNARPANAM SEVA SOCIETY, who has been personally responsible for the editing and publishing of the VISWAROOPANIN vamana KATHAIGAL. containing 100 interesting stories on Lord Krishna. Entire credit goes to Sri Ramachandran for visualising the successful bringing out of this book. All of us owe our sincere thanks to him for this great job. (I regret my inability to attach the book's front and back covers - as the size exceeds 1 mb size permitted)
The book cost us Rs 52000/- of which Rs 45000 the major share had been sponsored by 4 good souls among you all, whom I have not seen or known before. The book has not been priced as a result and is meant for free distribution to school children of 9th standard and above to read, and understand our hoary past, tradition and culture besides Faith. All of you are part of this noble service to our society.
Whoever wishes to present these books to children on their birth days, as gifts, can write to me and give their donations - anything above Rs 50/- per copy being the cost of the book, so that such funds would be utilised for the next book ready for publication on Lord Pandurangan ('THEVITTAADHA VITTALAA). For 700 copies the cost would be around Rs 55000/- similar to the Krishna book in tamil. So whatever proceeds we collect as donations by distribution of the Kishna book would be handy to assist our plan in bringing out the next book on Lord Panduranga.
As per request of many readers, I have already completed about 59 stories in English of this book titled '"YOU,I AND KRISHNA"" which are in circulation in mail to you daily. In a month I hope to complete it and make it ready for publishing. The English book wll have to be in better quality of paper, with colour pictures and so the cost is likely to be more and whatever donations and contributions we get will be utilised for releasing the book in 2014 January by tamil new year.
