Guru Maharaj: When I took the first initiation, then I read the Bhagavad-gita ten times. That was the requirement. I say that to take first initiation, you have to read the Bhagavad-gita twice. And one time read the First Canto, Srimad Bhagavatam. Other books also. So, I am trying to encourage the devotees to read Srila Prabhupada’s books. I don’t see what the problem is to read Srila Prabhupada’s books? It is an issue of time management. Make your schedule in such a way that you can spend a little time, one hour or so, to read Srila Prabhupada’s books.
