THE COMPLETE BIOGRAPHY OF SRILA PRABHUPADA

:This engladdens me when I see our literature very widely distributed. This was the subject matter of my Guru Maharaja’s satisfaction. He liked to distribute books more than constructing temples. He personally advised me to print books if I have got some money. So by his mercy we are printing books and constructing temples as well. Although in the beginning we had no such opportunity, but still I brought some books from India, and that was the foundation stone of our Krsna consciousness movement. So I want all our centers should give very much importance in the matter of book distribution.“ (SPL to Karandhara dasa, 27th September, 1973) Ref. VedaBase The Importance and Results Prabhupada: I am always emphasizing book distribution. It is the better kirtana. It is better than chanting. Of course chanting should not stop, but book distribution is the best kirtana. Ref. VedaBase Letter to: Srutadeva: -- Mayapur 24 October, 1974 Prabhupada: So you and Gargamuni take charge of distributing the books, and you study other methods of how to do this. If distribution of my books is fixed up then my life is fixed up in your country for the remaining days of my present body. Please therefore do it seriously. I am pleased that you are willing to take charge of the printing of my books. Krishna has desired like that, so you try to execute this implicit order of Krishna. Actually, by your grace, these two publications are already in the light, so your service in this connection is approved by Krishna and naturally by me also. So you try in this line. I am sure you will be successful, assisted by your good brother, Gargamuni Ref. VedaBase Letter to: Brahmananda -- Los Angeles 17 February, 1969
