Let’s face it, the world is a mess due to ignorance. Freedom from ignorance lies in receiving perfect knowledge. The only way to receive perfect knowledge is through a disciplic succession of realized masters. The knowledge in Srila Prabhupada’s books holds the key to unlocking perfect knowledge and eradicating ignorance. They are the only cure for the problems of the world because they give solutions to solve the root cause of the many problems of life. The world needs Srila Prabhupada’s books now more than ever.
These books and magazines are our most important propaganda weapons to defeat the ignorance of maya’s army, and the more we produce such literature and sell them profusely all over the world, the more we shall deliver the world from the suicide course. So your work is the most important preaching work, may Krishna bless you more and more. Thank you for helping me in this way. (Srila Prabhupada in a Letter to: Jayadvaita — Hyderabad 18 November, 1972)
