Young Muslim Distributes Books
My wife and I currently reside in India. Usually, when we travel by train, I take books with me to distribute. En route from Kolkata to Chennai, I went to distribute and, as sometimes happens, could distribute only one big book. On my way through the compartments one morning I met a young Muslim and showed him the books. He told me in broken English that he lives in Navadvip, nearby our Mayapur temple and was now traveling to his work...

As he was giving a donation his hands were...
The Godfather Gets the Higher Taste
I would like to preface the story by relating how I came to shake people's hands on sankirtana while exclaiming "ARooo!!" I would say this very loudly, like a buzzer going off, when they didn't expect it. It would make people laugh and disarm their false egos. I picked up this "ARooo" handshake in Laguna Beach from a devotee named Bhaya Hari Dasa. One day he shook my hand while saying something serious, but...
Good news with the van for Nigeria
Hare Krsna Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. I recently got word that a very nice devotee (who wants to remain anonymous) has given $15,000 for the sankirtan van for Nigeria. He is also going to supply them with all the books they need! Lord Caitanya has inspired this devotee from within and now there will be thousands of books going out to the people of Nigeria. This devotee told me,...
