Śrīla Prabhupāda’s wishes are the expressions of his deep love for his disciples and his unswerving dedication to the mission of his spiritual master. As he traveled the world, he often shared his long-term hopes, speaking as a concerned father who wants to ensure his children are well-situated before he departs. He did not view the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement as a temporary organization, but as the only hope for saving the world from disaster. Through these wishes, he invites us to share in his vision of a society where everyone is enlightened from the beginning of life, where literature is the primary weapon against ignorance, and where devotees live in a state of constant ''saṅkīrtana''. By making Śrīla Prabhupāda’s wishes our own life and soul, we find the strength to overcome the influence of ''māyā'' and achieve the highest perfection of devotional service. By following his example and these heartfelt requests, we can ensure that his legacy remains strong and pure for all future generations.

=== Ensuring the Future through Strong Succession ===

As Śrīla Prabhupāda approached his later years, his heart was focused on the stability of the movement. He wished for his disciples to become so strong in their understanding and character that they could manage the society and preach the sublime doctrine without his physical presence. He placed great trust in the GBC, wishing for them to manage cooperatively while he focused on his translations, and he expressed a deep hope that his students would become bona fide spiritual masters to save the world.

=== The Sacred Mission of Publications and Books ===

Śrīla Prabhupāda’s books were his heart, and he considered them his eternal contribution to the world. He wished for his publications to be handled with extreme care, ensuring that there were no mistakes in spelling or grammar, as they were meant for all future generations. Even when his health was failing, his wish was for his disciples to take serious care of his books, translating them into all languages so that the light of Kṛṣṇa consciousness could dissipate the darkness of this age.

=== A Grand Vision for Global Preaching ===

The scope of Śrīla Prabhupāda’s ambition was truly global. He wished to see a considerable change on the face of the globe through the influence of the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement. His plans included a "World Saṅkīrtana Party" that would travel across the continents, and the establishment of hundreds of temples in major cities like London and New Delhi.

=== Social Ideals and Self-Sufficient Communities ===

To create a stable spiritual society, Śrīla Prabhupāda wished for practical changes in how his disciples lived. He envisioned self-sufficient farm communities where food was produced locally, relieving the temples of material dependence. He also shared specific wishes for the social welfare of his students, such as the proper upbringing of children in Gurukula and the dedicated conduct of mothers. These wishes were aimed at creating a culture where every aspect of life was centered on the pleasure of Kṛṣṇa.

* [[Vaniquotes:I wish the temple community to be self-sufficient by producing their own food grains|I wish the temple community to be self-sufficient by producing their own food grains.]]

=== The Ultimate Wish for Departure and Peace ===

Finally, Śrīla Prabhupāda shared his wishes regarding the end of his own journey. He wished to die peacefully in Vṛndāvana, surrounded by the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa ''mahā-mantra'' and without the interference of doctors. His ultimate wish was not for his own salvation, but for all his devotees to purify themselves so they could return to the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He promised that as long as his disciples were engaged in Lord Kṛṣṇa’s service, there was no true separation.

* [[Vaniquotes:I wish everyone of my devotees may purify himself from all material contamination and thus be eligible for entering into the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead|I wish everyone of my devotees may purify himself from all material contamination and thus be eligible for entering into the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.]]
* [[Vaniquotes:The idea is that in this old age I do not know when death will overcome me, and I wish to die in the last days of my life at Vrindaban|The idea is that in this old age I do not know when death will overcome me, and I wish to die in the last days of my life at Vrindaban.]]
* [[Vaniquotes:I wish to die without a doctor. I may be seriously, but don't call doctor. Chant Hare Krsna. Don't be disturbed. Everyone has to die. Let us die peacefully, without doctor|I wish to die without a doctor. I may be seriously, but don't call doctor. Chant Hare Krsna. Don't be disturbed. Everyone has to die. Let us die peacefully, without doctor.]]
* [[Vaniquotes:Wherever I go to my branches, you my good devotees turn it into Vaikuntha and I wish to be there where my disciples are|Wherever I go to my branches, you my good devotees turn it into Vaikuntha and I wish to be there where my disciples are.]]

=== Conclusion ===

Śrīla Prabhupāda’s wishes serve as a sacred compass for the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. They reflect the vision of a soul who saw far beyond the present moment, planning for the welfare of generations yet unborn. Whether he was wishing for the publication of a new book or for the peace of his final moments in Vṛndāvana, every word was an invitation for his disciples to join him in his loving service to the Lord. By understanding and executing these wishes, we not only preserve the legacy of our spiritual master but also find the ultimate spiritual success. His wishes are the blueprint for a world transformed, and it is the duty and privilege of every follower to help bring that vision to fruition.
