A beautiful day on book distribution

The day began with no electricity and communication in the temple. Not a single toilet worked in the center. Also, it was slippery outside and heavily raining.

When I got out on the street, there were Christians who wanted to save the fallen souls, but in spite of this and everything else, people still took books. They are very worried about what further awaits us in this world.

One of the first men, as soon as he saw me, was very happy and said that he has been waiting for this knowledge for a long time. God sent it to him, and he was ready for it.

A girl had a fight with her boyfriend, and while he was walking on, she took a book to tease him.

One guy said, “I already took a book in Chernivtsi.”

A man who was eating prasada at Food for Life took a book.

We will continue to distribute. There is nothing to do anyway. There is no light in the temple. Today is no ordinary day. Although I did not plan to go outside, Krsna had His plan. I couldn’t sit still, something inside was pushing me. I remembered that it is a special Friday, and this convinced me to continue after lunch, albeit later than usual.

What is surprising is that the books were going out even faster than usual in such a short time!

The first guy is studying philosophy, the second is a military man, age 18. They both take books.

The girl Daria is interested in yoga and self-development. She was interested in the books, though at first she refused. Krsna inspired her to take some.

Dmitry, with pleasure, took the books. Just an hour before he had talked with a friend who told him about this knowledge. Then he saw me with the books. It’s amazing what is happening.

Serezha and Gleb refused, and then something happened. They came running after me, caught up, and took the books. This is Krishna’s mercy. It is such a beautiful day, out of the blue. Who would think that during a war there would be so much nectar of book distribution.
