Success of sankirtana

Wednesday, 1 November 1972 - Vrndavana

Prabhupada continued to speak on Nectar of Devotion for the whole month of Karttika. "We are preaching through the mercy of Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Caitanya Mahaprabhu has recommended that this process of Krsna kirtana go on. This is Caitanya Mahaprabhu's blessings. Param vijayate sri-krsna-sankirtanam. So go anywhere and everywhere. Chant Hare Krsna mantra, and you'll become victorious. This is Caitanya Mahaprabhu's blessings. It is not our invention. And practically we are getting results. All over the world, our only means is to chant Hare Krsna mantra.

"Recently we have been victorious. Very recently in Melbourne. You know our men were being arrested and being prosecuted, but one, the Chief Clergyman, Archbishop, he has recommended that 'These people are very nice people -- God conscious. Don't give them trouble.' Yes. And the government has stopped harassing. Now we are free to move on the street and go anywhere. This recent news we have got from Melbourne. Madhudvisa Maharaja has sent this news."

Srila Prabhupada had written a reply to Madhudvisa Swami:

I am very glad to hear all the good news, and I am very much inclined to accept your invitation to come to Australian zone as per your request. We shall be engaged in Calcutta up to January 20th, so after that date I may fly there from Calcutta and I may remain in Australia and other places up to March, 1st, 1973. Then, I shall return to Mayapur for celebrating the Lord Caitanya's festival. So if you are able to supply four round trip airline tickets from Calcutta for myself and my three secretaries, then I shall be glad to come there.
