Two Gita’s Meeting
In Karlsruhe, I approached a girl who suddenly exclaimed, "Wow! You will not believe it, but I have this book right here in my bag. Just a second." I thought, "Who distributed it to her today? I am the only distributor here." Then she pulled out our Gita, an old edition, and I saw that there are marks in it, both in verses and purports. She is studying it. I asked her whether she always carries it...
Smiling Grandmother
I usually approach younger people, but suddenly I saw an old lady coming by in a wheelchair. I approached her. She stopped, and we had an interesting conversation. She is 92, and since her thirtieth birthday she has been a vegetarian. She knows and respects the Bhagavad Gita. The next day she was scheduled to go to the hospital, so with a bright smile she said, "Yes, I'll buy the Gita from you, so I can...
A phone call in Paris and an Indian Exhibition at a Paris East mall

I replied to the point, so as not to dampen the ever-sensitive flow...
Appreciating the mercy of guru and Krsna
Today, as I ate breakfast in the Melbourne temple, a devotee gestured over my shoulder and asked whether I'd met a young man sitting behind me. "Do you know Camillo?" I looked behind and saw Camillo in civilian clothes, his back toward me. I had noticed him in the Bhagavatam class and had smiled at him. He smiled back. I was happy to see someone new to Krsna consciousness with a japa bag....
A transcendental coincidence
As I was distributing books at Cal Poly Tec University, a student approached me and said, "I have something to tell you that you'll like to hear. Yesterday, I got a book from you and then went to my dorm room. When I walked in, I was surprised to see another Bhagavad-gita on the table. It turns out that my roommate got one from you earlier. Then our other roommate also came in carrying a Bhagavad-gita, and...
