Preach about Vrndavana rather than come to Vrndavana
"The preaching in Poland is the first consideration. Vrndavana is being managed somehow. Now the most important work is that side in the Communist countries. If you can do something there, it is more than if you come here. Our business is to glorify Krishna as Lord of Vrndavana and to popularize Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Hare Krishna movement. I was a resident of Vrndavana, but at the age of seventy I tried to preach Krishna consciousness a little bit, and now this institution has come out. So, I think it is more profitable to preach about the master of Vrndavana, Krishna, outside of Vrndavana. A devotee of Krishna can create Vrndavana everywhere by preaching the glories of Krishna. "There are many sahajiyas who imitate Rupa Gosvami not to go out of Vrndavana. But Caitanya Mahaprabhu always remained outside Vrndavana for preaching purposes, although He is the master of Vrndavana personally. I have no objection to your coming to Vrndavana, but as you have accepted the sannyasa order, it is more important to preach about Vrndavana rather than come to Vrndavana."
