If there is any credit to my activities of translating, it
is all due to His Divine Grace. Certainly if His Divine
Grace were personally present at this time, it would
have been a great occasion for jubiliation, but even
though he is not physically present, I am confident
that he is very pleased by this work of translation.
He was very fond of seeing many books published
to spread the Kåñëa consciousness movement.
Therefore our society, the International Society for
Kåñëa Consciousness, has formed to execute the

CONCLUDING WORDS TO CAITANYA-CARITÄ MÅ TA

following the footsteps
Írī Närada Muni plays on his instrument to glorify the
transcendental activities of the Lord and to give relief
to all miserable living entities of the universe. No one
is happy here within the universe, and what is felt as
happiness is mäyä’s illusion. The illusory energy of the
Lord is so strong that even the hog who lives on filthy
stool feels happy. No one can be truly happy within
the
material world. Írīla Närada Muni, in order to enlighten
the miserable inhabitants, wanders everywhere. His
mission is to get them back home, back to Godhead. That
is the mission of all genuine devotees of the Lord following
the footsteps of that great sage.

Ś RĪMAD-BHÄ GAVATAM 1.6.38, PURPORT

 E verything within this material world will be
destroyed, and therefore one should use everything
for good purposes. If one is advanced in knowledge,
he must always be prepared to sacrifice anything for a
better cause. At the present moment the entire world
is in a dangerous position under the spell of a godless
civilization. The Kåñëa consciousness movement needs
many exalted, learned persons who will sacrifice their
lives to revive God consciousness throughout the
world. We therefore invite all men and women
advanced in knowledge to join the Kåñëa consciousness
movement and sacrifice their lives for the great cause

revivin
of reviving the God consciousness of human society.

to your program and make it complete with preaching,
chanting of Hare Kåñëa mahämantra, distribution of
