Leaving Letter from Titiksu

Dear Devotees,

Hare Krishna!

I am writing to inform you of a change in the management of the Liverpool Temple.

As I may have not had the opportunity to meet you personally in the last month or so, I would like to give some explanation.

As you may know, we have two children, Sanatana das (10) and Chaitanya dasi (4).  Over the past year, my wife and I have concluded that for their well-being, it would be beneficial for them to be part of a larger devotee community, where they would have the friendship of other devotee children of their own ages.

After careful consideration we made the decision to join the Bhaktivedanta Manor community near Watford.

At a UK Management meeting last month, ISKCON Scotland very kindly stepped forward and offered to oversee the management of the Liverpool temple.  This has now been effected.

I am pleased to be able to report to you that over the past two years there has been a fund-raising campaign to purchase a permanent temple building in Liverpool, and at the time of our leaving this stood at £9246.82 in the bank, and the donation of a house, 66 Mentmore Crescent, Liverpool 11, estimated value £35,000*.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support and encouragement over the years, and to also thank B.B. Puri Goswami and Prabhupada Vani Prabhu of ISKCON Scotland.  Please assist the devotees at the Temple in any way you are able.

Please also always chant the maha mantra:-

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare,

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare

Your servants,

Titiksu das          Cakra-nadi dasi

P.S. Any enquiries may be made directly to the temple at 114A Bold St, Liverpool L1 4HY, or to ISKCON Scotland, Karuna Bhavan, Bankhouse Rd, Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire, ML11 0ES  Tel. 01555 894790.

* This value has been revised to £15,000 by local estate agents.
