The effect of the authorized 1972 edition of Bhagavad-gita As It Is - We have sold millions of copies of this edition of Bhagavad-gita
"Now, this paramparā system being lost, I am again reviving the Bhagavad-gītā again to you, Arjuna."
That means the author says if one does not understand Bhagavad-gītā through the paramparā system, then the whole thing is lost.
So you cannot interpret Bhagavad-gītā in your own way.
Then the authority and the purport of Bhagavad-gītā is lost.
So we are trying to revive this paramparā system, and fortunately we have sold millions copies of this edition of Bhagavad-gītā.
We are printing five hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, like that, and all over the world.
There are many Bhagavad-gītās.
There are about six hundred and forty different editions. But still our, this Bhagavad-gītā As It Is, it is being accepted very widely, and therefore we are very much hopeful.
And as practical example you can see so many European, American, they have taken to this Kṛṣṇa consciousness very seriously.
And before this movement, many svāmīs, yogīs and scholars went to the foreign countries, but not a single person became a devotee of Kṛṣṇa.
That's a fact. Not a single person.
But now, because Bhagavad-gītā is being presented as it is, so many thousands, they are becoming devotees of Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
So this movement has practical effect, and both in the scholarly and people in general circle."
(Srila Prabhupada, Chandigarh, 1976)
The present day fabricated "ISKCON" has drastically and without authorization changed this authorized Bhagavad-gita As It Is, inside and out. It is a proven fact and the evidence is there for everyone to study. Thereby the very parampara Srila Prabhupada here announced the restoration of has again been breached. Very sad.
If the reader thinks this is a fanatical exaggeration, he or she is advised to check it out.
