Srila Prabhupada Letter to Hamsaduta, 12th March 1970
Posted on Dec 14, 2015 in Book Distribution And Temple Worship
“Now work with great enthusiasm and ask Himavati to take care of the Deities very, very nicely. Both of you have seen in LA how much they are careful about Deity worship. We have to make our steady progress, keeping both sides in balance, namely pancaratriki-vidhi and bhagavata-vidhi. The pancaratriki-vidhi is arcana or temple worship and the bhagavata-vidhi is to preach by chanting and distributing literature. Although chanting is quite sufficient to cover all the vidhis still to keep ourselves pure and sanctified we must observe the rules and regulations of paacaratriki-vidhi. Our London Deities are certainly very, very nice; and everyone is captivated by seeing the smiling face of the Lord. It is very enchanting.”
