Book Distribution Nectar

Fall Down No, we are not talking about someone's falling from the path of devotion. We are speaking about the modus-operandi of one of the youngest book distributors in last December's marathon: Vanmali Prabhu, the son of Rajesh Dodeja Prabhu and Gita Mataji. He is seven years old, but the devotional mood he displays clearly points to wisdom beyond his years. His technique? Just grab a book, go to anyone nearby, fall down...

Guard your health and distribute more books

In western Australia we had been running low on books, so I went around to all the storage sheds and lockers around the temple and rounded up all the books and did an inventory to see how many books we had so that we'd know when to make a book order.
