Srila Prabhupada’s concern re tradition

(This is not a “Prabhupada said” but a relevant comment said about Srila
Prabhupada)
Bhaktivedanta Swami… was very, very concerned that the tradition be
presented in its fullness, as it became more and more clear that the
authentic tradition was irreplaceable, that the cultural tradition out of
which Krishna consciousness came was essential to the purpose and practice
of Krishna consciousness, and that any attempt to translate it into purely
Western cultural terms might only serve to convolute it.
Thomas J. Hopkins, quoted in Tamal Krishna Goswami, A Living Theology of
Krishna Bhakti, pp 57-58.
