Arabian night book distribution
As part of the marathon season, devotees went *door2door* 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,...

I talked to their leader about Plato’s analogy of the cave and how this world is a perverted reflection of the...

She said, "Oh, I see, you are the one with the Bhagavad Gita!" It turns out she is an Registered Nurse who works for the family-doctor group in my building. She is there on Fridays when I am at another location. She was referring to...
