Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,


Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.


Below is text of recent announcement from Bhakti Vikāsa Trust


We are pleased to announce the release of the new three-volume book The Mood and Mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda by Bhakti Vikāsa Swami.


This work presents a detailed, systematic study of Śrīla Prabhupāda’s instructions, ideals, and vision for ISKCON. A must-read for all who wish to serve him with clarity and purpose.


Srila Prabhupada is the very life of ISKCON, and service to him is the sure means of success, both for the members of ISKCON and the institution as a whole. But what exactly did Srila Prabhupada want and expect from his followers? What were his plans and his hopes? How relevant are his instructions today? Can we change or neglect them?


Investigation of these vital questions makes The Mood and Mission of Srila Prabhupada essential reading for all devotees who wish to serve Srila Prabhupada in the best possible way.
