The Battle of Easter
We assembled our phalanx one block away from the Home Bush arena (Sydney's Olympic facility). Rupa Raghunatha prabhu, Australias Bhisma of sankirtan, led the advance, because he was the most experienced and the only one who had been there before. I felt excited as I observed our little sankirtan army all ready to give up there lives for Srila Prabhupada. Some of the great worriers were; the small but dangerous Hrman Krsna prabhu,...
Thumbs Up
I was distributing at Mt. Roskill which is in central Auckland, New Zealand. I move up and down on both sides of the street, but outside the banks is the busiest and so I would also distribute there. But, of late, the National bank has a security guard who moves us along and doesn't allow us to distribute outside the bank. This guard wasn't envious or harsh at all, but persistent that we not distribute in front of the bank. So...
Book Distribution in Detroit
I was asked to give the lecture on Janmastami at the Detroit temple, (for those of you in other countries, Detroit is a city in the state of Michigan in the USA). As I was speaking about the pastimes of Krsna something Prabhupada had said entered my train of thought, "Devotees are not satisfied in just hearing the glories of Krsna they also want to distribute His glories." Well, that sparked an interactive discussion on book...

Even the ecclesiastical orders in these countries are appreciating the value of the Krsna consciousness movement and are ready to unite for the highest...
Small World, and “Sorry I want a wife”
I was distributing books on Broadway Ave. in New York City when I apprached a man with his wife. When I showed him the Science of Self Realization he said, "I already have that book." Then he looked at me again and said, "And I think I got it from you last year in Hawaii." I said, "Yes sir, you probably did because I was in Hawaii last year." Then I asked him if he would like to have another book. He...
Nectar Story
A few months ago I met an atheist (Mina is his name) while on Sankirtan on Queen Street (Auckland, NZ). As Mina was from Egypt, he was quite cultured, and thus we where able to have an intelligent discussion. Nonetheless, he would not take a book and we went our separate ways. However, Mina then began to show up at our University lunch programs. He came many times, and I would always sit and talk with him (though never about theistic...
