Another mystical arrangement by Krsna
I arrived in Clevel and last night. I decided to go on a walk this afternoon with Ganga Natha Prabhu and Jai Nitai Prabhu. We were talking about the importance of distributing the Bhagavatam and how the mind is the only thing that gets in the way of our distributing Lord Caitanya’s mercy. I mentioned that Badrinarayan Swami said, “The number-one reason that people don’t have a Bhagavatam set is because no one has...
