all glories to Sri Guru and Gauranga
All glories to Srila Prabhupada 
 Srila Prabhupada was so serious to follow Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupadas instructiones to print devotional books , in New Delhi in the early 60th Srila Prabhupada was printing his Back Godhead magazine and Srimad Bhagavatam canto 1 and the rpinter asked Srila Prabhupada /Why are you doing this Swamiji ? Srila Prabhupada was struggeling also to pay all the printing bills in time ,but he always paid .Even the US embassy in India bought Srila Prabhupadas books. Srila Prabhupada answered : "You will see one day my mission will succeed Narendra Kumara ."Srila Prabhupada would sell his books and Back to Godhead in Delhi ,one day he even fainted in the hot Delhi sun.It is described in Prabhupada lilamrta .HH Bhakti Sundara Govinda Maharaja at the time a brahmacari he would sometimes help Srila Prabhupada sell back to Godhead, he was a disciple of Sri Bhakti Raksaka Sridhara Maharaja , but mostly Srila Prabhupada was alone . Later Bhakti Sundara Govinda Maharaja wrote a pranam mantra to our Srila Prabhupada he personally chanted daily . namah om visnupadaya krsna-presthaya bhutale swami sri bhaktivedanta prabhupadaya te namah

gurvajnam sirasi-dhrtva saktyavesa sva-rupine hare-krsneti mantrena pascatya-pracya-tarine
visvacarya prabaryaya divya karunya murtaye sri bhagavata-madhurya-gita-jnana pradayine
gaura-sri-rupa-siddhanta-saraswati nisevine radha-krsna-padambhoja-bhrngaya gurave namah
I offer my humble obeisances unto His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who is very dear to Lord Krsna on this earth, having taken shelter of his lotus feet.
Taking the order of his guru on his head, he became empowered by Nityananda Prabhu to act as a saktyavesa avatara. He distributed the Hare Krsna mantra all over the Eastern and Western world, delivering and uplifting all fallen souls.
He is the best of millions of jagat-gurus, because he is the personification of divine mercy. He has distributed the sweet nectar of Srimad Bhagavatam and the transcendental knowledge of Bhagavd-gita all over the world.
He is constantly engaged in exclusive devotional service to Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura, Srila Rupa Gosvami, and Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu. I offer my humble obeisances unto Srila Prabhupada, who is like a bumblebee always tasting the nectar of the lotus feet of Sri Sri Radha and Govinda.
Srila Prabhupada personally taught him the whole Bhagavad Gita vers by vers:

 

When Srila Prabhupada lived at Radha Damodara, Srila Narayana Maharaja would visit him when he could and help Srila Prabhupada to cook and they would honor prasadam , Srila Narayana Maharaja told me once when he visited Srila Prabhupada he did not have a chaddar and it was cold in Vrindavana, Srila Prabhupada would go back and forth to Delhi from Vrindavana due to his printing books , so I believe Srila Prabhupada had left some warm cloth in Delhi .So Srila Narayana Maharaja gave Srila Prabhupada his own chaddar as Srila Prabhupada was older than he and should not feel discomfort .Srila Narayana Maharaja told me personally Srila Prabhupada was always my siksa Guru my Gurudeva told me personally you must always render service to Abbhay Charan Prabhu *Srila Prabhupadas name before sannyasa .So since 1946 he knew Srila Prabhupada :
