You have to go back to India and you have to organize the preaching there
Jayapataka Swami: For us Bombay is a very important place. Prabhupada said that Vrindavan was his home, Bombay was his office and Mayapur was his place of worship. So for us in Mayapur, Bombay was also a very important place. It was one of the important places that Prabhupada was related with. He mentioned that because Bombay was the most modernized, financial powerhouse in India. It was also becoming the most westernized and the home of the Bollywood movie industry. Prabhupada wanted to establish a temple that would have a mission. The Bombay temple has a mission to stop the westernization or to preserve the Krishna consciousness of India. Sometimes Prabhupada would confide in us how his guru maharaj had ordered him to preach in the west. He said, “My guru didn’t specifically order me to preach in India, so whenever I preached in the west I was very successful.” So his idea was to build temples in Vrindavan and Mayapur for his western devotees to come and visit the holy places, but then he said how could he stand by and see India going to hell? Seeing how Indians were giving away their culture by following the west and becoming degraded in various ways of losing Krishna consciousness was disturbing to Srila Prabhupada. He said it was his personal mission to preach in India. Brahmananda Prabhu said that Prabhupada told him that the deity, Lord Dwarkadhish in Los Angeles, personally spoke to him and ordered him, “You have to go back to India and you have to organize the preaching there.”
