The Sankirtan Movement Cannot Be Stopped | B. Radha-Govinda

In a June 22, 1973 letter to Makhanlal prabhu, Srila Prabhupada wrote the following words:

“You have asked about whether nuclear devastation on this planet would effect the Sankirtana Movement. No, there is nothing that can stop the Sankirtana Movement because it is the will of God Himself, Lord Caitanya, that His Holy Name be heard in every town and village. Neither can the demons devastate this planet independent of the will of Krishna. Nothing happens without His sanction. If Krishna wants to kill someone no one can save Him, and if Krishna wants to save someone no one can kill him.

For our parts we should just be determined to carry out our mission against all opposition, demons, nuclear war, whatever. The whole universe is finally subject to certain annihilation by the will of Krishna, but devotional service is eternal and is the only certain way one can save himself from devastation.

We can preach all over the world that the only way to be saved from collective and individual devastation is to take to the chanting of Hare Krishna. In short, this material world is a very precarious place therefore we should always chant Hare Krishna and seek Krishna’s protection.”
