Authentic Krishna Consciousness transcends material resistance through the unstoppable potency of divine knowledge.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: So one thing is that when they are so much careful, that means the book is reacting. Otherwise why they are so careful that they may not come? What do you think? Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, sometimes they specifically say, "The others may come, but that one man, we don't want him here." [laughs] He gets out twice as many books as anybody else.
Prabhupāda: So, many books or not many books, why they are so much afraid of distributing these books? Devotee (1): It means that the book is potent.
Prabhupāda: Huh? Devotee (1): It means that the books are potent. We are affecting the material energy.
Prabhupāda: Everywhere in government, India especially, they do not want this movement. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: But the general tendency is...

But there's a general mass of people that are coming who are just getting the book, and they are beginning to follow simply on account of reading your books. Devotee (1): This is a big article. Wow. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: There's another magazine article like that. Hari-śauri: Rādhā-vallabha's got it. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Where is he? Hari-śauri: I don't know. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I asked..., there's another very special magazine came out, and I asked Rādhā-vallabha to bring it and present it to you. It's from New York, but I wanted him to read some of the things. He read the whole thing.
It's a whole magazine devoted to meditation groups, and they have featured our society as the best. It's clear...
