Srila Prabhupada
and His Books
Of all his contributions, Srila Prabhupada considered his books to be of utmost importance. These books present the timeless wisdom of Vedic scriptures in modern English with startling clarity and a convincing, simple eloquence that proves the relevance of the science of self realization to our modern world and our own lives. These books have changed the lives of millions. Srila Prabhupada encouraged the devotees to distribute this literature profusely. These books are translated in most of the major languages and are widely distributed across the world.
Accomplishments of Srila Prabhupada

The video on the right is about his accomplishments during the brief period of 11 years from 1967 – 1977.
