We Can Make the Whole World Krishna Conscious
In a lecture on Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 1.8 given in Māyāpur on April 1, 1975 Srila Prabhupada gave us the most wonderful instruction regarding making the whole world Krishna conscious. Here's what he said:
"Similarly, if you can propagate Kṛṣṇa consciousness constantly, then, by spreading this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, you can make the whole world Kṛṣṇa conscious, and then it will be Vaikuṇṭha. The same example. You put the iron rod with the fire, and it becomes hot, hotter and then red-hot. When it is red-hot then it is no more iron rod. It is fire. Anywhere you touch, it will burn.
So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is for that purpose. Increase Kṛṣṇa consciousness and there will be no more kuṇṭha, no more anxiety. People are trying to be anxiety-less, and that is only possible by this movement. Put always in touch with Kṛṣṇa. And the method is very simple—Hare Kṛṣṇa. That all. If you keep yourself in touch with Hare Kṛṣṇa... We have already been known as Hare Krishna people all over the world, Hare Krishna people. So increase this population, Hare Krishna people, and it will be Vaikuṇṭha."
Srila Prabhupada wonderfully revealed in a room conversation with poet Allen Ginsberg in Columbus, Ohio on 13 May 1969 that the Hare Krishna will increase from up to 10,000 years from now and then diminish. So this means that we are all blessed to be living on this planet during a time when the Hare Krishna movement will continue expanding more and more and more. Here's how the conversation went:
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. More people. Now it will increase.
Allen Ginsberg: Until?
Prabhupāda: Up to ten thousand years.
Allen Ginsberg: And then?
Prabhupāda: Then diminish.

My Dear Krishnamayi,
Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Thank you very much for loving concern. This means a lot to us.
Gurumataji is suffering for many years from lymphedema in her left leg, and I am suffering from several years of acute itching on many parts of my body. But if you are strictly following your initiation vows, we are both very happy.
But our disciples are giving us loving care.
I hope this meets you in the best of health.
