On Speaking Strongly in Śrila Prabhupada’s Service By Bhakti Vikasa Swami

 
On Speaking Strongly in Śrila Prabhupada’s Service was written for the perusal of all members of Śrila Prabhupāda’s ISKCON, especially for devotees who feel impelled to follow Śrila Prabhupāda’s example of preaching Kṛṣṇa’s message in a strong, clear, and provocative manner. Speaking Strongly is particularly for those who maintain Śrila Prabhupāda’s vision of ISKCON as a revolutionary movement with a mission to change society, to rouse people to think about life’s important questions, and to get them to embrace the only permanent solution to life’s problems: Krishna consciousness.
In Speaking Strongly, Bhakti Vikāsa Swami submits hundreds of quotes wherein Śrila Prabhupāda indicates that his followers should speak strongly for the benefit of the world and not shy away from embracing the uncompromising, realistic style of śastra, which presents not vague notions such as “spreading love” but solutions to the undeniable problems of material existence, and is especially relevant to the current disastrous condition of human society.
