<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Discussion with BTG Staff -- December 24, 1969, Boston|Discussion with BTG Staff -- December 24, 1969, Boston]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Satsvarūpa: Oh. Then I have one question to ask you. What about quoting even Vaiṣṇava literature that you haven't translated, like the Caitanya-caritāmṛta or cantos that you haven't translated? That doesn't seem right.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: Other translations than your own. What if we want to quote them in some article?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Other translations means?</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: Well, sometimes I see Caitanya-caritāmṛta. Śilavatī even wrote a book about Deity worship, and there's a long quote from Caitanya-caritāmṛta. I don't know if that's bona fide. I know that the literature is bona fide, but I don't know of any translation that's bona...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Caitanya-caritāmṛta? He has written a book? I have not seen it.</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: No. I just mean that devotees, sometimes they write an article and they say, "As it says in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta," and they quote a book that they read by some scholar, very good Vaiṣṇava literature, but translated by somebody that may not be good.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. Somebody... So far Caitanya-caritāmṛta, that Navina-candra Rāya... You, mean to say that...</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: That six volume set? That is all right?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is all right. That is translation. That is all right.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: That is the one which is in use, I believe. It's not anything, you know...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is simply translation. But Caitanya-caritāmṛta is now presented in our TLC. Actually that is our conclusion. And Navina Rāya's translation, there are sometimes little defects, but not very dangerous, not very dangerous.</p>
