Ways Householders can Distribute Books
By Bhakta Corey Every one of us wants to distribute books. But what if someone is entangled in householder life, and just don’t have time? Well, there is good news for them.

A Satisfied Customer
From Wellington NZ I received The Srimad Bhagavatam set (thank you so much). What an awesome set of books. I would have to say it's the book of books. When I look at it physically it seems to have this glow or radience about it (truely) and I've found that it has changed the entire atmosphere of my flat, I guess that's because its the literal incarnation of the Lord. I've been reading the first canto on my lunch break...

He came to Krishna consciousness after dabbling in lots of pseudo-spiritual...
Easy methods for selling at petrol pumps and car parks
Hare Krsna How nice it is to read the stories of devotees like Veda Narayana das, who is distributing books on his way home from work, and at the store when he stops to buy cherries. If only all our devotees could take the time to just add book distribution into their lives in this very simple and glorious way, imagine how many books we could distribute! The distribution would increase so far – to all the little roadside gas...
