''SRILA PRABHUPADA SPEAKS OUT!''
''So, it is more profitable to preach about the Master of Vrndavana, Krsna, outside of Vrndavana. A devotee of Krsna can create Vrndavana everywhere by preaching the glories of Krsna.''
Good Afternoon from Vrindaban. I pray all devotees world-wide are blissful in their daily Krsna Conscious activities. Srila Prabhupada has sweet thoughts for You and me, taken from His Letters to disciples.............
Prabhupada: At Bhuvanesvara (Orissa) I want to construct a Jagannatha temple exactly like that in Puri. If you like you can do the full charge to do this job. I shall spend as much money as it is required to do it nicely. >>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: M. M. De -- Vrindaban 16 November, 1976
Prabhupada: I was a resident in Vrndavana, but at the age of 70 I tried to preach Krsna consciousness a little bit and now this Institution has come out. So, I think it is more profitable to preach about the Master of Vrndavana, Krsna, outside of Vrndavana. A devotee of Krsna can create Vrndavana everywhere by preaching the glories of Krsna.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter -- Vrindaban 18 November, 1976
Prabhupada: There are many sahajiyas who imitate Rupa Goswami not to go out of Vrndavana, but Caitanya Mahaprabhu remained always outside Vrndavana for preaching purposes, although He is is the master of Vrndavana personally.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter -- Vrindaban 18 November, 1976
Prabhupada: Devotional service does not depend on material assessment. It is said in Srimad-Bhagavatam, "ahaituki apratihata''. Devotional service must be without any material ambition and there is no material impediment which can check advancement in devotional service. Srila Gaura Kisora das Babaji was unable to sign his name, and yet he became the spiritual master of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami Maharaja, the most erudite learned scholar of His time. We should begin our devotional service in whichever position we are. It isn't that we have to learn something extra for advancing in devotional service. If one is materially well equipped it is welcome but devotional service does not depend on material qualifications.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: Jitadusana -- Vrindaban 20 November, 1976
Prabhupada: We have no business with Tagore's Gitanjali. We are simply interested in spreading Krishna's Gita. When the greatest author, Krishna, is there, there is no need of bringing smaller author. When there is brightest sunshine, there is no need of bringing small lamp. When there is brightest moonshine, there is no need of bringing glowworm. This is our principle. In Gitanjali there is a little hint to surrender to the Supreme.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: S. N. Sharma -- Vrindaban 9 November, 1976
Prabhupada: You have given me the credit of being the best disciple of Prabhupada.(Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur) That is very kind of you, but I am just trying to serve him. Whatever success there is is due to his mercy. So, this is all due to the blessings of Srila Prabhupada. I have no credit in this connection. These American boys are helping me in this endeavor, therefore, until they are admitted to the Jagannatha Puri temple I'm not inclined to go there.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: Syama Sundarji -- Vrindaban 15 November, 1976
