Guest guest Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 Jai Guru Datta. (Some of you did not recieve the e-mail attachment. I am sending it again. Thanks) I am forwarding this e-mail received from Vishnu Deonarine from Trinidad updating the status of the construction of the Temple and Hanuman Statue. He is requesting financial support from USA and other countries to complete the project on time before His Holiness arrives on June 2, 2003. You can send you contributions two ways: 1) You can send your contribution directly to Trnidad to the address given in the e-mail sent by Vsnu Deonarine. OR 2) US devotees can send their contribution to Datta Yoga Center USA (to Baton Rouge address) indicating that this contribution is for the purpose of Trinidad Project. When you send your donation by check please indicate next to memo "Trinidad Hanuman Project". We will send the money to Trinida with your name and amount sent so that they can submit the information to His Holiness Sri swamiji. By sending this way, your donation becomes tax deductable. If you have any questions please contact Visnu Deconarine or me. Jai Guru Datta V. V. Prakasa Rao -------- Forwarded Message: Subj: RE: 80 feet Hanuman Murti - Trinidad 1/10/2003 8:26:30 AM Central Standard Time <A HREF="girwar">girwar</A> <A HREF="dycusa">dycusa</A> Sent from the Internet (Details) Datta Yoga Center USA Dear Dr. V.V. Prakasa Rao, JAYA GURU DATTA How are you? All the best for the New Year! Persadie was in Trinidad over the weekend prior to Datta Jayanti. He came to view the works and assess our readiness for the Celebrations in June 2003. It was quite clear that the work would not be completed by June 2003 unless 10 more sculptors from Madras came in to assist the existing 13 sculptors from India. This effort has been activated. The additional Sculptors would be in Trinidad at the end of January. Persadie also indicated that Sri Swamiji himself would be coming to Trinidad in March 2003 to inspect the works again and then in June 2nd 2003 with an entourage of Priests and Musicians for the consecration ceremony etc. The bottom line is that we are in need of an urgent injection of funds. He appointed a small Finance and Construction Committee to raise the necessary funds required to complete the project and for the celebration itself. So far we have not solicited any funds from foreign devotees and on behalf of the Dattatreya Yoga Centre, Trinidad, we are humbly and respectfully re questing your kind assistance in mobilizing the devotees in your area. Money orders, traveller's cheques, drafts etc. should be sent to:- The Dattatreya Yoga Centre Orangefield Road Carapichaima Trinidad, W.I. All cheques etc. must be made payable to DATTATREYA YOGA CENTRE. Persadie has also made an appeal via Dattapeetham website but it was thought that we should make a special appeal to you also since it is a Trinidad Project. All the names of donees and amounts will be recorded and presented to Sri Swamiji at the appropriate time. Receipts for all cheques would be posted out to the donees' addresses. Of course it is expected that each cheque will be accompanied by a note of the name and address of the sender. Accommodation Details for the Celebration itself can be accessed through Datta Peetham website or you can contact Sherwin Seenath at <A HREF="eycliffe"> eycliffe</A> or Stella Siewrattan at <A HREF="stel1936">stel1936</A> Our Website with full details would be up in 1 week's time. If there is need for further clarification, you can contact the undersigned. I thank you for your kind attention. Sri Guru Datta.
