"Also inform Jayananda that I have received his letter and the difficulties of life may come as seasonal changes but we should not be disturbed by all those difficulties. Our process is to chant and that process will gradually clear everything in due course. There is nothing to be disrupted—you should go on with your work with enthusiasm and everything will be solved. We are on the sound footing of Krsna consciousness."
(SPL to Mukunda, 6th June, 1967)
"Everything in the temple should be kept nice and clean. Everyone should wash hands before touching anything of Krsna's. We should always remember that Krsna is the purest and similarly only the pure can associate with Him. Cleanliness is next to Godliness."
(SPL to Nandarani, 3rd October, 1967)
