Srila Prabhupada Letter to Trai dasa, March 4th 1973
“Your plans for increasing book distribution are very good. If so many books are being sold then very soon we will be finished the second edition. Distribution of all these books is making a firm basis for our...
Srila Prabhupada Letter to Rupanuga, 14th February 1973
“Al1 programs must go on but it is a fact that this book distribution program is very, very important. It is real preaching work but I think this program for TV and radio is not so important. There are so many TV programs. Someone will see us on TV and then right after they will see some other nonsense and they will forget. Therefore, it is better for them to read my books but I think your proposal for seriously organizing the...
Srila Prabhupada Letter to Jagadisa, 5th January 1973
“I am especially happy to hear from you about the huge distribution of books in the Canadian zone. That is the most auspicious sign. You are making good progress that I can understand.

Srila Prabhupada Letter to Kurusrestha, 23rd November 1972
“I am very glad to hear all the good news, especially that you want to sell books more and more. That is the best preaching work; each book sold means there is some practical effect of preaching, there is some tangible progress.

So long you remain active only satisfying Krsna's...
Srila Prabhupada Letter to Yadubara, 11th November 1972
“If you become lazy in your spiritual life, everything else will deteriorate. We are not interested in big, big buildings, no. That was not my plan for Juhu. I simply want to engage everyone in the service of Krsna, that's all. And that means preaching. So if the preaching work has stopped, what can I do? In that case you must expect there will be so many troubles. So try to improve your preaching work, distribute all the...
