Student Sees Auras of Book Distributor
I was distributing in front of Innsbrucks University (Austria), and I stopped a student — small, round and sweet — and offered him SB 1.1. He took it and said tht he will return to tell me if he liked the book and if he didn't he would give it back. I agreed. A few hours later he came back telling me that he was against the caste system. I explained the original meaning of the varnashram system and its supperiority...
Two Drunks and a Book Distributor…..
One evening a drunk came to our stall and picked up a Gita and told me that it is an incomplete Bhagavat-gita. He said that by reading the first page, he understood that it is not complete. Instead of arguing, I was trying to avoid him & looking for an interested person. But the drunk stayed at our stall arguing with me. Suddenly another drunkard showed up and told the first drunk, ”You cannot take the Bhagavad-gita, because...
There are No Material Impediments To Book Distribution…….
I want to acknowledge an amazing feat of faith, surrender and dedication. Srila Prabhupada's warrior, Adhoksaja Prabhu, born in Russia, has been living and preaching in Germany for quite some time.

But he took it upon himself to go out during the...
Disappointment Gives Rise To The Highest Pleasure & “This is My Request”
Once I was distributing books at Chicago's O'Hare airport. A young, adventurous couple was carrying huge backpacks, and they kept running back and forth to the ticket counter. It turns out they had missed their international flight; their long-awaited vacation now appeared to be totally cancelled. Agonizing and trying to comfort each other, they were beyond depressed. I approached them and told them that this book explains how...
Blissful “Arabian Nights”
As part of the marathon season, devotees went *door to door* for a couple of weeks to distribute books. Today was a special and historic day for the Toronto Sankirtan Warriors. We visited an apartment at Kipling & Finch last week, where there were many Arabic-speaking members of a household who did not understand English. Unfortunately, we did not carry any Arabic books. So this week we packed Arabic books, but only to run out of...
Book Distribution on India’s Trains
“If one can please a pure devotee of the Lord, such action means immediate satisfaction of the Lord, even though such a person is not officially qualified to receive the mercy of the Lord.” (Srila Prabhupada's letter to Yeager, Dec. 20, 1970) By our book distribution, the super-pure devotee Srila Prabhupada is pleased, and the Lord's mercy touches us even if we are not officially qualified to receive it. There are...
