Letter to: Radhavallabha:
29 September, 1974
Mayapur
My Dear Radhavallabha das:
Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your telegram dated September 26, 1974 and have noted the contents. Your telegram reads as follows:
"FOR JADURANI'S NO. 23 PAINTING WHAT SHOULD LAKSMI HOLD IN HER FOUR HANDS PLEASE REPLY BY CABLE — RADHABALLAVA"
Laksmi holds in her two hands lotus flower and offers blessings with the other hand like you see with the murtis of Radha Krsna with palm open and facing forward. I have never seen Laksmi with four hands, so I do not know what she is holding.
I do not think it necessary to reply this matter by cable.
I hope this meets you well.
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
