Some nice book distribution realizations from an ISKCON youth
Hare Krishna, dear devotees! My name is Radha, I’m 19 years old and I am a student in my final year at Sri Mayapur International School.

Mercy makes the blind see
While I was distributing books at a university in California, a blind lady came to me and said, "I overheard you saying something about spirituality, what do you have?"

On one of the islands, where just five hundred inhabitants live, I was giving out books one day. A lady who stopped to talk began to take something from her purse, which I thought might be an offical government document identifying her, and that she'd ask me to stop my book...
