Switzerland Cows
By Lord Caitanya's and Srila Prabhupada's grace, I did book distribution last Saturday, Ekadasi in Zurich. So we went out on empty stomachs in the morning for a couple of hours. This tapasya gave us an edge over the sense-gratifiers; kept us jolly, no matter how many people didn't stop. A sharp young man in the army who's into Shaolin monks bought the ISO. Meanwhile, Bhakta Daniel sold Mahabharata to a middle-aged...
Stories from the Marathon in Finland
It was the 22nd December, and I wanted to distribute 100 books. I had stayed the whole day in a freezing cold parking lot that was connected to Ideapark, a huge shopping mall.

I guessed the husband had a company that he was a leader of. It was a nice conversation, and it...
An Auspicious Start To The New Year With Invigorating Book Distribution
By Indresh We were fortunate to be able to start 2011 off on the right foot by distributing Srila Prabhupada’s books during the morning of January 1st.

The Prabhupada Marathon in New Zealand
Hare Krsna Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. I just attended the post Prabhupada Marathon festival in New Zealand. Sixty-two devotees went out and had great success, far exceeding last year's marathon. Devotees related various sankirtan adventures. Here are a few highlights: Sukanthi Radha-devi dasi: "I was reading the Bhagavad Gita while waiting for someone to come by, and I came...
