[Guest guest]

In a letter to Harer Nama, dated November 6th, 1969, regarding book

perfection of spiritual life.”

In a letter to Kurusrerestha, dated July 23rd, 1973, Srila Prabhupada says:

“Regarding book distribution, everyone, including book distributors, must

follow the standard regulations. Book distribution is preaching, it should not

be

thought of as done for money. It is executed as a preaching purpose. With

theses guide-lines in mind, try to distribute as many books a possible.”

In a letter to Satsvarupa Maharaja, dated January 5th, 1976, Srila Prabhupada

says:

“Our first business is this book distribution. There is no need of any other

business. If this book distribution is managed properly, pushed on with great

enthusiasm and determination, and at the some time if our men keep spiritually

strong, then the whole world will become Krishna Conscious.”

Srila Prabhupada said in a letter to Bhagavan das dated July 7th, 1971:

“Householders can sell books and get fifteen percent commission on the net

income. The retail discount schedule will be as follows: 1-2 books, 33%; 3-24

books, 40%; and 100 books and over, 50% (whole sale rate).”

In a letter to Ramesvara dasa, dated November 14th, 1974, Srila Prabhupada

says:

“Regarding book distribution, somehow the distribution must be doubled and

tripled as for as possible. Do it.”
