Dear Dad,
While I am at it I would quote you a second time. This one is from the Bhagavad Gita As It Is [1972 Complete Edition].
Your commented on Srila Prabhupada's best-selling edition of the Bhagavad-gita:

"This transcendental mysticism from the East is now taking root in the 'countercultures' of the West and providing for many a way out of the wilderness of a disintegrating civilization.... If truth is what works, there must be a kind of truth in the Bhagavad-gita As It Is, since those who follow its teachings display a joyous serenity usually missing in the bleak and strident lives of contemporary people."

I remember you telling me with your happy smile and chortle that you had no idea they were going to quote you on the letter you had written them. Well guess what, they did and that is great!
Love, Steve

Taken from the original 1972 Complete edition. With translations and elaborate purports by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
