1) What is Pāñcarātrika-vidhi?

2) How can I get some knowledge of it?

3) Why do we especially put the Lord Nrusingh Deva's statue or photo in the altar and chant only the verse relating to the incarnation of Nrusingh Deva from Dasabatar Stotra? What is it significance?

4) Why do some opposite (sinful) thoughts enter into me, thought I never like it, in certain places with the association of certain people and how to counteract it?

5) I think, and take it in my heart that all are pure devotees of the Lord as they are very much loved by Srila Prabhupada and what is it that by their association the opposite thoughts enter into me?

6) Will you kindly relate to me an account of your personal life history, how you could achieve such a state of transcendence, which will be a practical example on my part to take lesson from it to practice it in my life? (P.T.O)

7) Kindly do bless me and allow me to go to Orissa and do preaching work to spread your mission there, as your Divine Grace has desired. Kindly instruct me how to do and what to do. Kindly do krupa on this eternal servant of yours.

8) Will you kindly tell me how I can get the life-history of our Goswamis of Vrindavan to translate it into Oriya? May I take lessons from their personal examples?

Hare Krushna.
Your eternal servant
Gour Govinda Das
