Sri Advaita Acarya’s Appearance Day Magic

On being dropped off in Hamilton city center in New Zealand by "The General" (Sriman Krishna Dasa Prabhu), I could immediately detect a very special atmosphere and felt unusually peaceful and confident. These feelings were further boosted by the minor austerity of the half-day fast. The whole day was magic, but there are four special exchanges I want to share with the devotees: 1) I stopped a very old man wearing a tartan...

The man from Australia

Walking down the street at Yonge and Dundas, I met a very tall guy who looked really lost, and I started to speak with him about our books. He appreciated the books, but he was still lost, so I asked him where was he from. He said from Canberra, Australia, and we got talking about my last trip to Canberra and his travels. Then he said, "Maybe I should ask you for help, as you materialized out of nowhere." He was supposed to...

Miracle at the Mall

The marathon started and we decided to go on a traveling sankirtan trip for four days to the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne. Unlike previous times, we decided to distribute in devotional clothes. We looked at the weather forecast for the week and found that from Wednesday on it was pretty bleakÑthunderstorms and rain. Nevertheless, praying for the mercy of the Lord, we embarked on our trip and soon...
