Distributing Books at the Time of Death

Do You imagine distributing books at the time of death? I did it, maybe not perfectly, but Krishna values our endeavours. I was very young then, and little bit naive, so not much careful about the dangers. I was also on the swing of the ecstasy of spiritual book distribution. I thought by Krishna's mercy everyone is welcoming me and is so hospitable, even dogs. I thought I could make dogs devotees. Maybe, but not in the...

Diwali Event in Toronto

We did sankirtan at a banquet hall where there was a Diwali Event. We got there at 5:30 and met with resistance by one of the management as soon as we walked in. However, we persevered and were able to get our table and things setup. Everyone was cooperative except for that one fellow we will call "Angry Man," who had many objections: only one table and only in this corner; no pictures of Srila Prabhupada or Sri Sri...

Book Devotee Special : Nidra-Devi Dasi in Denver

As many of you know, my service in ISKCON is to travel worldwide to inspire devotees to distribute Prabhupada's books, but quite often when I visit temples, someone inspires me.

She has the most dedicated devotional schedule that I've ever seen. She starts her day at 2:00...

When you really become humble and devoted you can...

How to Make Everyone in Beverly Woods Krishna Conscious?

In California, Los Angeles, I was thinking: "How to win Beverly Woods with Krishna?" They are our close neighbours and very artistic. Also very proud, because they have everything. Except Krishna. Most probably they will not let you in. And really most opulent houses of the stars were just closed completely. No signs of life. Ok, I am also an artist, a star, but Krishna's star. I devoted my music to Him. Krishna is more...

Famous Singer from Lithuania

I was distributing my CDs of "Saints' Bhajans" and "Meditative Maha-mantra" together with Prabhupada books in different States of America. The mantra was the same: "I am Your neighbour, I stay with my friends. I am from LIthuania, Europe, and I am famous singer there. Just recently I recorded my CDs in very good studio, so I was thinking that maybe my neighbours would like to have them?" Neighbours...
