It is very good news that you have received Srimad-Bhagavatam
Maha-purana complete set. Srila Prabhupada said that we should
make Srimad-Bhagavatam our life. That means we should read
it, absorb it, speak about it, remember it, and preach it especially
by distributing it to others. Within a few months BBt Bombay
should have printed a cheaper English edition so you can look
forward to distributing it. Certainly you will get all blessings to
understand Bhagavatam because you not only appreciate this
literature as being non-different from Krsna, but you are very
eager to serve the message of Bhagavatam by distributing it.

So go on distributing books. What more can I say? It is a very
simple formula to please Srila Prabhupada. You are personally
feeling the ecstasy of serving His Divine Grace. Your efforts will
not go in vain. As you pump more and more books out to the
people of H, it will have its effect. Schools, colleges, outlying
villages, factories, offices, homes—there are so many places to
distribute books. Now you have caught the idea to inspire others.
So in this way our movement can spread, person to person.

Thank you for putting your score for book purchases to me. But
actually I am now giving my book score to whichever temple
happens to be close by. But your sovereign efforts should not
go unrecorded. I suggest you send your book sale scores every
month to ISKCON B; otherwise BBt Bombay Mail order.
