2. DFW SRF Center Status Balance of $25, 000 With $250,000 cash on hand We can start seriously looking for a new place to buy Pledges of $15, 000 Total = $40,000

7. Rent a new place In this case we would have to devote additional funds for renting the new place. Rent the current place In this case we are going to limit the group’s growth and also the attendance of all the devotees. 1 5 years at this rate To have $250,000 2 2.5 years at this rate To have $250,000 3 6 months To have $250,000

8. Possibly bigger group Possibly higher rent Possibly more cash flow Rent with option to buy = $250,000 in bank. Current chapel does not lend for expansion Rent remains the same Fewer devotees involved means less financial resources It’s our Choice

9. REBEMBER … TAKE THE LETTER AND THE FORM

10. “God is the Honey, organizations are the hives: both are necessary. Any form is useless, of course, without the spirit, but why should you not start busy hives full of the spiritual nectar?” Paramahansa Yogananda
