Srila Prabhupada considered publishing books about Krishna his life's mission. Amidst managing an international society, he would rise early and spend several hours each morning translating sacred texts from Sanskrit or Bengali into English with elaborate purports, carefully combining the commentaries of previous masters with his own realizations. To name a few: Bhagavad-gita As It Is, the definitive teachings of Lord Krishna. Srimad-Bhagavatam (Bhagavata Purana), the history of Krishna's incarnations, pastimes and devotees in 18 volumes. Sri Caitanya-caritamrita, the biography and teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in 9 volumes. Nectar of Devotion, the science of bhakti-yoga, devotional service to Krishna. KRSNA, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, a summary study of Lord Krishna's pastimes. These books, comprising over 40 volumes, are now published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust in 57 languages, with several million copies sold to people all over the world.
On the auspicious day of appearance day of H.D.G. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, we offer our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to His Divine Grace for this wonderful legacy that he left behind for us.
