Dear Stripe,
1. I have forwarded the correspondence below to the Charity Commission online (as acknowledged by the Cabinet Office shown) to begin the process of creating 'Vishista Advaita Sampradaya' as a religious charitable institution focussing exclusively on the work that the Commission approves. They require at least 3 members to act as trustees to the organisation which I am attempting to secure from our existing Members at Join It Membership Account; hence I have copied this email to Daneswari Kundeti and Jill Jesson.
2. The details of what we envisage our work to be has already been forwarded to you through prior consultations, for which we will use our Knowledge Developers United website at Brilliant Directories and the Join it Account. Both these accounts will be altered to reflect what we plan on doing. I will delete from the Title of the Join it Account the entries (TCLS and TCLP-UK) and also the blogposts that were published to reflect our new mission. Likewise the Knowledge Developers United Website will enter the link to the Join it Account to show the association with Religion and Charitable status of the reborn organisation.
3. I would now like to do the entire process of registering the organisation with the Charity Commission myself so as to save money and have direct control over what transpires with the Charity Commission, Stripe and Vishista Advaita Sampradaya going forwards.
4. From your other email received this morning, I went into 'Contact us' and was relieved to find the following verification notice:
It took me to the original Stripe Account where I could check the verification of my involvements with Stripe, Join It and Brilliant Directories:
What do you need help with? Select a topic or type your question below.
Your current verification status is:
Your account is verified. No further actions are necessary.
Did this help solve your issue?
(I pressed YES)
Great! Don't forget that you can come back here for support 24/7.
The chat has ended.
5. Stripe is hereby authorised to name the Account accordingly as 'Vishista Advaita Sampradaya' to replace 'The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited' as dormant.
6. If Stripe has any outstanding questions or concerns, please let me know urgently.
Yours sincerely

Dear Mike
I solemnly give the undertaking that you specify that Vishista Advaita Sampradaya will only do charitable religious work on a day to day basis, such as developing our congregation through the Membership Account with Stripe at Join It.
From my point of view we can now move forward with Stripe accepting that it will remove the existing 'The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited Account that is in place and replace it with Vishista Advaita Sampradaya Account immediately as going through the process of being registered with the Charity Commission once we have the plan that would be acceptable to the Commission and Stripe.
If this is a plan that Business Legal Limited can undertake, please let me know your Fees, sending me an invoice for the work is needed.
I look forward to communications both from yourselves and Stripe in this regard.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi

Ok we would need a business plan spelling out exactly what the charity will be doing on a day to day basis. However the Commission will not agree to register a charity which is not carrying out exclusively charitable activities and/or where there is more private benefit to an individual than public benefit.
The charity would need to have its own website rather than refer to others as well.

Mike

Dear Mike
Thank you.
I would like to use the name of the Charity as 'Vishista Advaita Sampradaya' to link with http://vishistaadvaitavedanta.com and https://app.joinit.com/o/vishista-advaita-sampradaya-tclstclp-uk as a totally charitable religious organisation.
What obstacles will I face in doing so please?

Shantanu,
Ok you could possibly keep The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited on Dormant mode and go for the option of setting up a charitable incorporated organisation called 'The Conservative Libertarian Society” registered with Charity Commission.
However the Commission will wish to know what the non charity organisation will eventually be used for and may be concerned at the similar names which could confuse the public. It would be better to have totally different names.
Regards,
Mike

Hello Mike
1. Sorry to keep you waiting. I referred the options that you mention to Stripe to see which option would be acceptable to Stripe for I am in a bit of a predicament as to which path would suit my needs going forwards.
2. It all depends on whether I need to place 'The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited on Dormant mode (so that I can revive it if I need to at a future date to sell my ~300 books) and go for the option of setting up a charitable incorporated organisation registered with Charity Commission has advantages and disadvantages. So my question is can I have both 'The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited registered with Companies House and say 'The Conservative Libertarian Society as a Charity registered with the Charity Commission that would be more what Stripe would accept.
3. I set my objective for today to Stripe as follows:
[Action required] Additional information needed for The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited

Dear Stripe
It is vital that all payments and payouts received by The Conservative Libertarian Publications Limited in through the Join it, and the two Brilliant Directories websites that we have created is processed through Stripe.
Apart from the maintenance of our websites that Membership Funds and Donations will be used for, we wish to build and maintain a Hindu Vishista Advaita Vedanta temple devoted to Sri Krishna/Durga and worshipping our God through pujas in the United Kingdom as a long-term objective if we get sufficient funds.
I trust this now adequately answers all Stripe's questions for the Review to be completed today.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi

Ok you cannot convert a shareholding company to a company limited by guarantee which is the type of company required.
Alternatively we could set up a charitable incorporated organisation registered with Charity Commission not Companies House.
I await your thoughts.

Ok having checked that company I note it is a shareholding company so cannot be registered as a charity.
We would need to set up a new organisation.
If that is something you are interested in let me know.

Thank you for the enquiry.
In order for me to send you a more detailed response can you firstly clarify whether you have an organisation set up already which you wish to register as a charity.
If so can you scan a copy of the governing document to me please.
If you do not have such an organisation set up yet just confirm and I will proceed from there.
Regards,
Mike
