Letter to Brahmananda
"This Maya will attack the body always, because the body itself is the source of all troubles. We try to make a solution of our misfortunes, but at the same time we want to keep this body.
People do not understand the simple truth that if anyone wants real happiness, he has to get out of the entanglements of this material body, which is only possible by practice of Krishna Consciousness.
Indian Man (2): ...like your company very much in Toronto and we feel like talk you so much, but we don't have so much time to talk with you. You have so much mercy, so we have not... know so much about Krishna from you.
Prabhupada: So in my absence you read the books. What I talk, I have written in the books. That's all.
Morning Walk -- August 7, 1975, Toronto
I have tried it: any page you open, that is wonderful reading matter. My ambition is to spread these books far and wide all over the world so that everyone shall read at least one of our books and that will change his life. If only 1% become devotees, that will change the world.
(Letter to: Karandhara — Tokyo 2 May, 1972)
The instruction given in my books is supposed to be personal instruction.
(Letter to: Dhrstaketu: — Bombay 14 October, 1973)
Actually I have already answered all questions in my books such as Bhagavad-gita, so kindly read them and chant Hare Krishna Mantra.
