Guest guest Posted December 14, 1998 Report Share Posted December 14, 1998 Dear Servants of Srila Prabhupada, Please accept our aspiring humble obeisances. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada. Over the past two months, we have been following with discerning interest the many devotee letters, thoughts and comments in the Apocalypse 1999? conference regarding Y2K. We recall eight years ago, reading "...in the future the people will be so much harassed that according to Srimad-Bhagavatam they will flee from their homes and country and take shelter in the forest" (SB 4.16.4 purport). Since first reading that, a small group of devotees have been slowly preparing for a preaching village and small scale organic farm retreat center. Since Y2K is looming not too far behind the shoulder of humankind, what better time to manifest these types of projects. We call our project Hari Nama Cintamani Dhama. We have spent this past year researching the California coastal strip for prospective sites. Two areas have gained our attention--the foothills of southern Big Sur and Humboldt/Mendocino counties. Our choices of sites are based on the abundance of clean water, year round growing season and affordability of land. Dasarath prabhu, as you know, is also taking affirmative action now and we encourage other devotees to create small self sustaining villages rather quickly. We all know manpower will not be an issue this time around. As usual lack of laksmi holds our project back. For example, $90,000 will purchase the 48 acre bed & breakfast fishing lodge on the Klamath River in Humboldt county or $140,000 will buy 200 acres in the Big Sur area. If our areas of sites and goals might be attractive to you, please contact us at: Hari Nama CD P.O. Box 1007 Arcata, CA 95521 phone: (707) 825-7612 or (805) 966-3403 email: Y2KCLP (AT) aol (DOT) com We are developing a website with more information.
