Door to Door Book Distribution
We had a door-to-door campaign in Pune India for the last ten days, which was an extremely satisfying experience.

Is there a Deity Involved with this Philosophy?
I was distributing at Pierce College in the Los Angeles area the other day when a student came up to the book table. I showed him the illustrations and explained some philosophy. While I was speaking to him, another student arrived and listened to our conversation. When I asked the first student for a donation, he said he didn't have any money.

The Crash that wasn’t an Accident
While distributing books at University of California Riverside at a book table, I witnessed a male student who was riding a bike crash into a female student right in front of me. It wasn't serious. She was able to walk away. As the student with the bike was getting his bike together to continue on, I said, "It's not an accident that you crashed into her in front of me. Had that not happened, you would have just zipped by...
