Yes, you have understood

Giriraj Swami: Before the festival, I had approached Srila Prabhupada on the balcony in Calcutta and said, "Srila Prabhupada, I've been trying to understand what you want of us, what your desire is." I could see that Srila Prabhupada was really listening and taking every word into his heart. And then I said, "Two things seem to please you the most, distributing your books and building the big temple in Mayapur." And Srila Prabhupada's eyes opened wide, his face lit up, he smiled and he glanced at me and he said, "Yes, you have understood." And then he said, "If you build this temple in Mayapur, Srila Bhaktivinode Thakur will personally come and take you all back to Godhead."
