Srila Prabhupada tells a story of hindi letter

Bhumadeva dasa: One of Prabhupada's disciple-secretaries knew some Hindi and wrote out a letter that Prabhupada had dictated. But the devotee apologized, "My handwriting is not very good." "It doesn't matter," said Srila Prabhupada. "No one can write Hindi nicely." Then Prabhupada told a joke. Someone wrote a letter to a friend in Hindi. The man replied, "Next time you write a letter in Hindi, please send train fare to go to your place." The friend wrote back, "Why is that?" The other friend replied, "Because I have to go to you to decipher your letters."
