Preaching is the life of all the acaryas. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu set this example himself when he went preaching all over India and sent Nityananda prabhu and Haridasa Thakura to go door to door. The devotees have followed this example and preached to millions of people, in spite of the difficulties they have sometimes encountered.
Even Srila Sridhara Maharaja, who was not very closely connected with what was going on in the West, surprised some devotees in the month of December when they were receiving his darsana. Srila Sridhara Maharaja said to them, “What are you doing here in the dhama in the month of December? This is the month of the Christmas marathon. You should be distributing tons of books about the Holy message.” Maharaja was very aware of what Srila Prabhupada had set in motion. During Christmas time, when everybody was out running madly after items for sense enjoyment, the devotees would offer them books about Sri Krsna and Sri Caitanya. In this way, millions of books have been distributed all over the world, and this tradition has been maintained until present in many different missions.
