FULL-CIRCLE SANKIRTANA
About six years ago I was distributing books at Balboa park in San Diego when a young man came to the table. He was very interested in the Bhagavad-gita, but he had no money so I said, “That’s okay, if you want, you can give a donation tomorrow.” So he took the book and the next day, true to his word, he gave a donation. I got his contact information and kept in touch with him. He started regularly visiting the...

On the front lines we experience the Mystical Magic of Krsna
Last year on the end of year marathon, I was with Gokul-lila and it was raining heavily and we were struggling to find a place to distribute books. We happened to drive past a Yogijis Indian Food shop and thought to stop and try to distribute a few Bhagavad gitas with the hope of meeting some nice Indians at least, because it was Gita-jayanti. We felt quite stuck with the rain and were just standing outside this shop, when Gokul-lila...
Unexpected mercy
Today in Edgware something truly extraordinary happened. Two sisters, Pramila and Kastur, were walking through the Broadwalk shopping mall, and by divine arrangement, when they exited, Niscinta Prabhu stopped Pramila and I stopped Kastur. Pramila shared a wonderful realisation. Just yesterday she had received the Bhaktivedanta Manor 2026 calendar in the post. As she was going through it she came across the section about the sacred...
He just kept running into the Hare Krsna’s
We had a lot of Srimad Bhagavatam distribution leading up to Bhadra Purnima, but one story stuck in my head because of how an inspired young man had many small encounters with devotees that fanned his bhakti flame. A month or so ago I got a message saying that a gentleman named Damien had contacted the Hare Krishna Auckland Facebook page saying that he was interested in Srimad Bhagavatam. He had purchased some books from the temple...
