Kindly manage things very intelligently and always feel yourself completely dependent on Krsna's protection.

I beg to acknowledge reciept of your letter dated 6th April, 1970, and the information therein are all very encouraging. It appears that under your management everything is going on systematically.

I am very happy to learn how both you and your good wife are determined to be more and more dependent on Krsna.
Letter to Jayagovinda -- Los Angeles 18 April, 1970:

I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 14th instant, and I am very happy to learn how both you and your good wife are determined to be more and more dependent on Krsna. That should be your mode of life, and that will advance you to success. Always think of Krsna, always hear of Krsna and always speak of Krsna and nothing else, no idle talkings. Both your wife and yourself are Krsna Conscious so you will have good opportunity to be always engaged in Krsna Consciousness.

If we handle sharpened razor nicely we become cleanly shaved, but a little inattention causes bloodstain. So you will always remember these maxims and depend on Krsna and the Acaryas, and make your life progressive.
Letter to Acyutananda -- Los Angeles 14 June, 1970:

Our preaching in Japan is going on nicely. Similarly in Sydney it is going on nicely. So by the Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura we are expanding all over the world and we are getting good response. Now for India I am counting upon you. So far you have done it is very satisfactory to me, but we should always be careful about our responsibilities. It is said in the scriptures that spiritual life is just like handling a sharpened razor. If we handle it nicely we become cleanly shaved, but a little inattention causes bloodstain. So you will always remember these maxims and depend on Krsna and the Acaryas, and make your life progressive.

Everyone should try his best to do his part depending on Krsna and Spiritual Master, then all success is there.
Letter to Paramananda -- Los Angeles 17 June, 1970:

So I am very much pleased that you are doing your job very nicely. Everyone should try his best to do his part depending on Krsna and Spiritual Master, then all success is there. I have heard about you how nicely you are working in New Vrndavana. Your good wife, Satyabhama, is also doing nice in teaching work. Similarly all our students are doing their jobs very diligently, and that is my satisfaction.

Remain dependent on Krsna and work sincerely and everything will come out very easily.
Letter to Vrndavana Candra -- Los Angeles 24 June, 1970:

Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your letter dated 18th June, 1970. You are doing very nicely. Krsna is giving you intelligence. So remain dependent on Krsna and work sincerely and everything will come out very easily.

If we take advantage then we may take the credit, but if we do not someone else will. You are right to just depend on Krsna. When He sees that you are sincere He will reveal everything to you.
Letter to Karandhara -- Bombay 4 November, 1970:

It is most encouraging to me to see that you are spreading this movement so nicely and I thank you for this. Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu has forecast that this Hare Krsna Mantra will be heard in every nook and cranny of the globe. He is God, so it will happen, that is a fact. So if we take advantage then we may take the credit, but if we do not someone else will. You are right to just depend on Krsna. When He sees that you are sincere He will reveal everything to you. And this preaching work is your key to success in Krsna Consciousness; just see Bhagavad-gita As It Is, XVIII, 68-69.

1972 Correspondence

You must have a program for getting income which will not depend upon anyone outside of our camp. Of course ultimately we must depend only on Krsna.
Letter to Cyavana -- Bombay 29 December, 1972:

Yes, that is correct proposal, you must have a program for getting income which will not depend upon anyone outside of our camp. Of course ultimately we must depend only on Krsna. If He gives us something we shall accept and offer it in His service, if we have nothing, what is the harm, we shall sit under a tree and chant Hare Krsna. But in any case, I do not want you to leave that temple and move to a smaller place. We must keep at least one nice temple of large size in that part of Africa. If we reduce in that way, that will not be good.

1973 Correspondence

Depend on Krsna and consult a general doctor. Nobody can guarantee life.
Letter to Trai -- India 4 March, 1973:

That London doctor that Kesava mentioned to Rupanuga Maharaja is bogus. Depend on Krsna and consult a general doctor. Nobody can guarantee life. It is a little hellish but without Krsna nobody can be a saint or relieved from distresses.

Sometimes reverses may be there, but just depend on Krsna.
Letter to Sudama -- Bombay 10 December, 1973:

Also, you come to Mayapur on Mahaprabhu's appearance day as many as possible at least for a week. Yes, the Gaura nitai Deities may be taken out for festivals. I am glad to hear of the excellent book distribution that is being done there. From other parts of the world there is also very good report of book distribution. That is our main propaganda work. So you go on with your preaching work and I will be pleased to receive your report regularly.

The economic situation is always precarious but we are dependent on Krsna only.
Letter to Makhanlal -- Los Angeles 11 December, 1973:

Yes, if you are able to acquire some farm land and produce grains that will be nice. Especially we want to export grains to India. Do not, however, change or disrupt the existing Temple program. The economic situation is always precarious but we are dependent on Krsna only.

1976 Correspondence

I am sorry to learn that one of your sons is in mental disorder, so do your best for treatment and depend on Krsna for the ultimate result.
Letter to Sri Santosh Kumar Pyne -- Vrindaban 8 September, 1976:

After a long time I have received a letter from you with mixed information. I am sorry to learn that one of your sons is in mental disorder, so do your best for treatment and depend on Krsna for the ultimate result. The chequered history of family life is the same for everyone. According to our philosophy we call it samsara dava nada lida loka the blazing forest fire of material life. In the forest fire takes place without any human effort and it burns into ashes all the trees and animals without any relief. The relief comes from the cloud above the head.

Regarding the difficulty at Chicago airport, my advice is to depend on Krsna.
Letter to Satsvarupa -- Vrindaban 18 November, 1976:

So far the professors helping us, take affidavits from them. If necessary we may ask them to go to court, but as far as possible avoid this if it is unnecessary. Regarding your coming to be the secretary in February. You arrange amongst yourselves. All of you are welcome. Thank you for sending the $500 from Detroit. Yes, it was due. Regarding the difficulty at Chicago airport, my advice is to depend on Krsna.

Do not depend on outside help. Also, for financial support depend on Krsna. That is preaching success.
Letter to Lokanatha -- Hyderabad 14 December, 1976:

Do not depend on outside help. Also, for financial support depend on Krsna. That is preaching success. People's appreciation will be practical when they help you financially also. Also, book distribution. We are maintaining our huge establishment by selling books. That is wanted. In foreign countries they are distributing huge quantities of books. Money is needed, that you have to collect. You can't expect money from outside. That is not successful preaching.

Just like our Aksayananda Maharaja is sending out men to the surrounding villages and towns preaching and holding programs. This should be the purpose, otherwise you may simply go on as you are now and simply depend on Krsna.
Letter to Lokanatha -- Hyderabad 14 December, 1976:

The center should be opened for financial help for the preaching program. Just like our Aksayananda Maharaja is sending out men to the surrounding villages and towns preaching and holding programs. This should be the purpose, otherwise you may simply go on as you are now and simply depend on Krsna.

Fight and depend on Krsna, that will bring you victory.

Thank you very much. This is very good. Fight and depend on Krsna, that will bring you victory.

1977 Correspondence

As for the German court case, it now appears to be suspended. So keep prepared and let us depend on Krsna.
Letter to Harikesa -- Bhuvanesvara 1 February, 1977:

As for the German court case, it now appears to be suspended. So keep prepared and let us depend on Krsna. The tendency you report of the householders living at the expense of others in our Society, is not good. One way to earn money is by selling books, they can be given a salary or commission. But if you say that they do not want to do that, yes, they should do some honest work. As an overall problem, this can be discussed by the entire GBC at Mayapur.
