Leaving Radha-Damodara temple

Mahanidhi DasaIn January 1965, Srila Prabhupada left the Radha-Damodara temple, destined for America, and he didn't return for two years. He printed Volume three of Srimad-Bhagavatam in January, sold them in Bombay in March, and until June 10, 1965, he stayed in Delhi acquiring a passport and sponsorship papers for traveling to the United States. Prabhupada returned to Bombay where he obtained free passage to New York aboard the Scindia Steamship, "Jaladuta". Srila Prabhupada had unswerving faith in his guru's order to preach in the English speaking countries. And he had absolute confidence in the unlimited spiritual potency of Lord Krishna's holy names. Before leaving his rooms at Radha-Damodara for his preaching mission, Prabhupada had this interesting conversation.
