Everyone was astonished by your beautiful paintings. One lady began crying while she looked through them -- especially when she saw viraha-radha.
Many individuals purchased stacks of different titles for their book shops and were eager to establish an on-going connection with your publications.
Many others acquired books for libraries and universities. They purchased books such as Ujjvala-nilamani, Jaiva-dharma and Brhad-bhagavatamrta.

Or for how long they had been waiting for this moment?
And your dedicated servants were not willing to let them loose this chance
As much as possible, they recorded names and emails to add to your hari-katha mailing list.
