Book Distribution by the Congregation
By Vijaya das Dear devotees, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! I was recently asked by my Temple President, Svavasa Prabhu, to go to Silicon Valley (near San Francisco) to see how Vaisesika Prabhu has stimulated an explosion of book distribution there. Svavas Prabhu was hoping I could learn how to duplicate their success in New Dvaraka. I was quite impressed, to say the least. One weekend a month,...

Book Distribution in Book Fair, Surat(India)

That was all possible due to the grace of Srila...

One Day of Book Distribution on Melrose Avenue
Melrose Avenue is probably the most degraded Avenue in LA, but it is also the best place in LA to meet people receptive to Krsna consciousness. It was a hot June day, so I found a place in the shade. To my surprise, the store I was working in front of was called "Maya." I looked into the window and saw it was a gift store. I saw some pictures of Siva and Ganesh, and sure enough there was one of Maya Devi herself. Before...

This last weekend Bhrgupati Prabhu and I went to the San Francisco area of California to distribute Srila Prabhupada's books. The first day we went to downtown Santa Cruz. At first I was a little bit skeptical, I had never gone shop to shop before. I went into the first shop with Bhrgupati to watch how he did it. He approached the people the...
