This routine work, such as chanting, speaking, rising early, cleaning,

cooking and offering prasadam, arati, reading books -- these activities are

the backbone of our Society, and if we practice them nicely in a regulative

manner, then our whole program will be successful. If we become slack or

neglect these things, then everything else we may try will fail. So it is

very important that you keep your standards very high in these activities,

then your preaching will be strong. Preaching is our real business,

preaching and distributing books. If your preaching work is strong, then

your management of temple affairs will also become automatically very

strong. Just like if the head wills it, the hand will move. Preaching is

like the head of our KC Society -- if the head is removed, the whole body

dies. Managing is the hands, which work nicely if the head is healthy. If

the hands are removed, the body will not die, but it will be crippled. So

preaching is more important than management, but both must be there if the

whole body is to operate nicely.
