Caitanya Ananda prabhu – in memoriam
Dear Sankirtan Heroes, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Like you may have heard, hg Caitanya Ananda prabhu left his body in Vrndavan the most glorious way. In the middle of Ayinda prabhus kirtan. His last words were Krishna Krishna Krishna… I was with him there in Mumbay and Vrndavan in June and we had many conversations which are also recorded. The other article is one of his last interviews....
Saarijarvi
I was distributing in a town in Finland when a lady around 40 but quite devi-like, as we say in Sanskrit, entered the post office outside of which I was distributing. There was hardly anyone else around, so I waited for her to come out. As soon as she saw me she said, "I’m not going to buy anything." Not angrily, but sharply. I didn’t care and managed to get the book in her hand. I recalled Bhakta Ilkka’s...

He answered it and was talking for a minute or...
Adventures in Lapland Finland
Greetings from Finland. Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga! All glories to Lord Caitanya's sankirtana movement! Finland is quite a large country, but the majority of the population is concentrated in its southern parts. This summer we decided to flood the northern parts of Finland with Srila Prabhupada's books and Krishna's prasadam. The opportunity...
Book Distribution Nectar
Tongue Tied Last year the bus party of Sri Sri Radha-Gopinath Mandir went to Andhra Pradesh. A devotee wrote in his diary about the experience: We tried to get permission at a thermal power plant employing 3000 workers. Typically we give out a set of books on credit and then the company deducts the amount from the salary and sends us the money. But here things were difficult. Although every one we met was favorable, they expressed...
