Shrila Prabhupada stressed book distribution as the most important activity to be undertaken by the members of his Society.
Shrila Prabhupada received the instruction from his own spiritual master that if he ever got money he should somehow or other print books and that if he printed books in the English language it would benefit the people of the world and also benefit him. The devotees regularly distribute Shrila Prabhupada's books in various ways. Sometimes going out on the streets and selling the books to people and sometimes placing the books in libraries and sometimes holding bookstalls in different festivals and gatherings around the city. There are many ways to distribute Shrila Prabhupada's books including buying a box of bulk books and distributing one each to work mates or business associates. Any kind of book distribution is extremely pleasing to Shrila Prabhupada and the previous acaryas because it is directly giving the science of Krishna Consciousness to the conditioned souls who so desperately need it.
