The Best Birthday Present
This is about how the biggest book distributor in the USA, Bhakta Jaya Khush, came to Krsna consciousness.

A World-Class Butcher Takes A Book
I was distributing books on Queen Street in central Auckland one Sunday morning. I stopped a confident young man from Bolton, England. During the exchange he explained not only that he is a butcher, but he was New Zealand to represent England in the Butchering World Cup! He explained how proud he felt and how much he enjoyed the work. About the butchering “profession” he commented, “Butchering keeps one fit, but it...
