Srila Prabhupada’s Mercy on Mad Mick

Told by Bhaktin Annette to Kalyani Devi Dasi This is a story which proves that the mercy of Srila Prabhupada flows like the river Ganga, reaching those souls others cannot. A few years ago, in a small village in Roscommon County, one of the most rural parts of Ireland, there lived a man by the name of Michael Henmore. He never married and at an early life became a hermit. He had few possessions except a cow, a horse and a cart, and a...

Sankirtana Stories

Dear Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga!

Battlefield Bhajans Vol. 23

Scared from the War I boarded the flight from JFK to LAX, and hoped to catch up on some rest. As I looked for my seat I noticed the man sitting next to me was an amputee. I sat down and made some small talk with him. It turned out he lost his legs to a roadside blast in Iraq. I explained to him that I was a soldier also and showed my id card. He asked if I saw anything crazy there. My friend, too much… is what i responded. He...

Book Distribution Nectar

By Partha-sarathi Dasa written at Bhaktivedanta Ashram, NYC I am sitting in New York City now, looking out the window and thinking how fortunate we are to have this movement.

It is very sad, and it breaks the heart of a devotee to see this. I just arrived from Washington, DC, and the monitor in the...
