pṛthivīte āche yata nagarādi grāma
sarvatra pracāra haibe mora nāma
(CB Antya-khaṇḍa 4.126)
Means that, “As many villages and towns are there on the surface of the globe, everywhere this Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra will be preached.” So this Hare Kṛṣṇa movement, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, has just begun. You will see in future, in every village, every town, they’ll chant and dance. So it is the Caitanya Mahāprabhu’s prediction that is being fulfilled. Nobody can check it.

Prabhupāda: When I go to Los Angeles I am in Vaikuṇṭha. When I go to New York I am in Vaikuṇṭha. Wherever we have got temple, that is Vaikuṇṭha.
