<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Letter to Russian -- January 5, 1977, Bombay|Letter to Russian -- January 5, 1977, Bombay]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: The condition is that I'll invest money for Oriya language books, and you'll sell-half the collection for temple, and half the collection for printing again, the same principle.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: They won't be able to collect one crore by selling books.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no, if they can, I have no objection. I can give them ten crores.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: But they'll never be able to...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that you cannot say. It is all in the hands of Kṛṣṇa. Not one crore. Say a few lakhs. He's ready to go town to town, village, in Orissa. He wants that in my absence somebody must be there to look after the construction. That is quite reasonable.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh, yes, definitely.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So I have told them "Any amount I can invest. You print book and sell." That is my open secret. Print books, and distribute, and spend half in whichever life you do and half, again print books. That is my ambition (vision?). I want to see our philosophy is widely spread by different literatures. That I want to do.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. That will be very good. There are a few people here, like Vijeta, who is Saurabha's assistant, he could probably go to Bhuvaneśvara and supervise the construction.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. So arrange.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: There are too many people here. We don't need that many in Bombay for the Bombay construction.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So let him come to Bhuvaneśvara. I am going after Kumbhamela. And begin the work immediately. We have got one gentleman, professor. He is good learned scholar. I can engage him for translating.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Oriya. Very nice.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He has writing... That machine... I can see the manuscript. In this way, arrangement make.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Very good. We just printed two books in Oriya, Topmost Yoga and one more. One more.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He likes Oriya language.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Who? Gaura-Govinda Swami? He is very sincere devotee.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, undoubtedly.</p>
<p>Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Very sincere.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Kṛṣṇa sent him. He... In Vṛndāvana, he said that "Please give me shelter." I thought that "There are so many Indian comes and go." So when he insisted, "All right, you stay."</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: Yeah. He took sannyāsa at the opening of the temple. I remember that.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He's a good boy.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: He's stuck it out for a long time in Orissa. He's been there a long time, by himself a lot of the time too.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes. He's organizing nicely.</p>
