GBC Meeting and Milk Issue

[Guest guest]

Dear Madhava Gosh Prabhu and Prabhus,

 

PAMHO. AGTSP.

 

The GBC meetings are only one day with three days after being a festival.

Malati says there is a lot to jam in one day. So it does not look like we

will even get to speak and if we do there will be very little time and

probably not much attention. We are having a table during this time at the

temple and we had the idea to write a pamphlet, flyer on the subject of

buying milk from the market is supporting the slaughter industry and what

positive actions can be taken. Like an appeal to the devotees. Would you

care to write something for it. I'd say as brief and to the point as

possible without sacrificing the knowledge needed to understand the point.

There can be photos, drawings etc. This will reach a lot of people. Maybe we

could put it also on Chakra. If anyone else would like to contribute some

writing please do so. Credit given to writers.

 

Right now I am overloaded with paper work, so help is needed.

 

Your servant,

Chayadevi
