Srila Prabhupada's ecstatic response to book distribution news

[Guest guest]

a 1976 Letter from Srila Prabhupada's secretary (from the new

Vedabase)

 

....after receiving an ecstatic report of Sankirtan in the Himalayas: "When

Srila Prabhupada heard how all over the Himalayas people are hearing of

Krishna Consciousness through books, He said, "The devotees all over the

world are doing the greatest service to Caitanya Mahaprabhu. There is no

comparison to their service. I am only an instrument to give you guidance.

Actually you are all born to spread Krishna Consciousness all over the

world. Go on more and more. The books are selling. That is our greatest

success. I am very much pleased."

Then after hearing the Sankirtan Newsletter Vol IV No 12 Prabhupada stated,

"Can any Babaji and Goswami do such distribution? All they can do is wag

their tails. They have such big tails!" and..."The big books are selling

more than the other sizes. It is beyond my imagination. This news gives me

more vital force."
