Concerning <http://krishna1008.blogspot.com/2022/01/rasa-manjari-speaks-about-ramesvara.html>, Mother Rasamanjari Devi dasi wrote, 'Srila Prabhupada’s books, books which he himself called “The Law Books for the next ten-thousand years"?.'

This quote is not in the VedaBase as having been said by Srila Prabhupada even once! This quote sounds like something an arrogant person would say. It's been my experience that if a "Prabhupada said" quote sounds even a little bit arrogant, you can bet that it's not in the Vedabase as having been said by Prabhupada.

This is a very dubious quote which first appeared in a book by Srutakirti Das, a very unreliable source. He's in the habit of saying, "Prabhupada said it many times," when actually Srila Prabhupada probably never said it even once! For example Srutakirti wrote, "Prabhupada said that 'Krishna consciousness is common sense.' many times," but there's zero evidence that Prabhupada said that even one time!

This is part of "the great sinister movement." The ISKCON leaders make up "Prabhupada said" quotes in order to try to bring Srila Prabhupada down to their level of arrogance!

I believe I read the 10,000 year quote mentioned in a Vyasapuja book. This quote is not unlikely.  10,000 years is also the prediction for the rise of Krishna consciousness after the appearance of the yuga avatar Krishna Himself in the combined form of Radha-Kriishna to inaugurate the sankirtan movement to deliver the entire world with ecstatic pure Krishna prema and the highest philosophical knowledge of the Vedas. This knowledge is. none other than the cream of all Vedas the Srimad Bhagavatam. This sastra has never before been translated out of the Sanskrit. Thus its knowledge of Krishna's pastimes in the 10th canto is only now being studied by the world. 

Furthermore, there will not be another more qualified translater from Sanskrit into English because Srila Prabhupada is a nitya siddha and highly educated in both Sanskrit and English. He was ordered to do just this by his spiritual master

Another indication that it's a bogus quote is that it suddenly appeared out-of-nowhere, years after Srila Prabhupada left us.
