Book Distribution Nectar

by Krishna-kumara Dasa (USA) I'm out traveling again, and yesterday our party visited the University of Santa Barbara in California. After a full day of sankirtan, it was time to go back to the van. So, praying to do something to please my spiritual master and Krsna, I decided to try to distribute one more book. As I passed by a young couple, I didn't even seriously approach them because they appeared to be stereotypical athlete-cheerleader people. At this point I was just hunting for an obvious sweetie. Anyway, as I walked by them I...

by Ananta Nitai Das (Ireland) A funny incident happened on Grafton Street in Dublin. Two girls were rollerblading near the local park. I rode up near them on my bike and started talking to them.

Two of our brahmacaris were distributing books on a train going to Mumbai. A conductor approached them for their tickets and asked them to stop distributing. So for some time they...

British Celebrities Get Prabhupada’s Bhagavad Gita

by Bhakta Alexey (London) I was fortunate to be invited to a function at which I accompanied my seniors Jai Nitai and Sachi Kisore Prabhus. The function was dedicated to a senior British lady named Jo Fillippou upon her being formally honored as a Member of the British Empire (something like Paul McCartney's being knighted.) Somehow she knew our Jai Nitai Prabhu, so we were invited as well, but he didn't prepare a speech. Jai Nitai was formerly a major book distributor, so he asked me to take a box of Bhagavad-gitas. The party itself...
