Therefore we are writing so many books. Unless we take care of the books and preach and read the books ourselves, unless we understand the philosophy, this Hare Krishna will be finished within a few years, because there will be no life. How long can one go on artificially, “Hare Krishna! Haribol!”? That will be artificial, without any life. Without preaching, without understanding philosophy, you cannot keep your strength. Everyone should be thoroughly well-conversed with the philosophy which we are putting forward. That means you must read thoroughly every day.
Good advice by Srila Prabhupada.
"Similarly, if you do not keep yourself fit to preach then your temples will all be closed in due course of time. Without preaching you’ll not feel enthused to continue temple worship. And without temple worship you cannot keep yourself pure and clean. These two things must go on in parallel. Then there is success...." In modern times, whether among the Hindus, Muslims or Christians, because there is no teaching of philosophy, the mosque or temple or church is being closed.....
