Book distribution is calling. Where are you?

By Partha prana govinda das Most of us take to book distribution on roads and to houses on holidays or we allocate a time separately for that. What if we can distribute books during our travel in busses and trains, when we are going to our workplace. This can work well in India, as devotees use public transport for commuting to office.

Hare Krsna My husband Rupa Raghunatha Prabhu, myself and my transcendental daughter Vrndavaneshvari decided to take to the road for a travelling sankirtan tour from Sydney to Murwullambah. First stop was the famous "Tuggerah Roadhouse" the biggest fuel and burger stop on the freeway and an ideal location to distribute many transcendental literatures. Shy from so much time carrying a nappy bag rather than book bag, I was...

Preacher Gets the Mercy of the Book Distributors

Book distribution in Malawi, Africa by Murari and Rama Gaura We arrived a week back and have started going out on book distribution in the shops and outside colleges. Its quite different compared to other places I have been and so we are happy even when 1 book goes out. In one shop, (an ISUZU motorcar display showroom) I entered and went into the 'spare parts' manager's office. He was African bodied and looked quite the...
