About the Book

ISKCON’s Changes to Srila Prabhupada’s Bhagavad-gita As It Is and Perfect Questions, Perfect Answers, by Madhudvisa Dasa, is one of the early book-length treatments of the editing controversy.

Produced in the typewriter era, it now has historical as well as argumentative value. The book documents specific textual changes, presents evidence and correspondence, and records concerns about the posthumous revision of Śrīla Prabhupāda’s books at an early stage of the controversy.

Its age is part of its importance: it demonstrates that objections to the revisions are not a recent reaction but have a documented history extending back through earlier generations of the debate.
