Looking Through Death’s Eye
by Vijaya dasa I was distributing books in Greece on a street full of restaurants with people sitting and laughing at the tables. In the midst of all this was a Rumanian lady looking at the scene, who had a disturbed look on her face. I walked over to her and asked what was up.

I was one of the top book distributors, distributing one to two hundred BTG's a day. I would carry a large stack of BTG's in my left arm, and hit the streets, approaching people. However, my motive was material. Since I had a heavy load on my arms, I thought the sooner I could get rid...
