In one of your e-mails to the devotees, I thought you had provided instructions for making a donation by means of international wire transfer to your bank account. Perhaps I am mistaken. Today, I am looking for those instructions but I am not finding them on your website. I want to make a small donation. Can you direct my attention to where the instructions are? If there are none, please also inform me of that. Thank you for your kind reply.
Respectfully,
Bhakti
