Vaisnava Apologetics

My Reading Project

I really enjoy reading Srila Prabhupada’s books. Since I work an almost full time job and is very busy I don’t have time to read as much as I would like to. So instead I decided to record and read and/or listen to Prabhupada’s books 10 times each. Here is my status:

I’ve read and/or listened to the following books at least 10 times each:

01. Transcendental Teachings of Prahlada Maharaja
02. Krishna, the Reservoir of Pleasure
03. Elevation to Krishna Consciousness
04. The Perfection of Yoga
05. Message of Godhead
06. Beyond Birth and Death
07. KC: The Topmost Yoga System
08. Krishna Consciousness – The Matchless Gift
09. On the way to Krishna
10. Light of the Bhagavata
11. Easy Journey to Other Planets
12. Raja-Vidya: The King of Knowledge
13. Path of Perfection
14. Narada Bhakti Sutra (first 8 slokas)
15. Mukunda Mala Stotra (first 6 slokas)
16. Teachings of Queen Kunti
17. Nectar of Instruction (30 times)
18. Sri Isopanisad (30 times)
19. Nectar of Devotion (Ch. 1-19)
20. Teachings of Lord Caitanya
21. Teachings of Lord Kapila – the Son of Devahuti

In progress

22. Bhagavad-gita, As It Is (I’ve read a lot in it, but I don’t remember reading it from cover to cover more than twice. Right now I’ve been through the first 6 chapters 10 times each. Chapter 1 30 times)
23. Renunciation Through Wisdom (Once. I’ve been through part 1 10 times)

Coming up

24. Nectar of Devotion (Ch. 20 to the end) (so far once)
25. Srimad-Bhagavatam (cover to cover – so far once)
26. Caitanya Caritamrta (not completely finished)
27. Krishna Book (cover to cover – so far twice)
28. Prabhupada Lectures (so far some of them)
29. Prabhupada Conversations (so far around the first 6 books)
30. Prabhupada Letters (so far to somewhere in 1971)
31. Prabhupada Lilamrta (full version: never – oops!) (only read the small one)
32. Mahabharata (read once)
33. Ramayana (read once)
34. Caitanya Bhagavata (read once)
35. Brhad Bhagavatamrta (not read)

I guess it will take me at least 10 years :-)
