Spontaneous Attraction
By Gauranga das It was my first day of distributing books in the long distance trains. I had gone to Mumbai Central station carrying a bag full of variety of Srila Prabhupada’s books. I took a platform ticket and entered the posh and luxurious Rajdhani Express departing to New Delhi. Since it is a centrally air-conditioned train with an expensive fare, only affluent people travel in it. But big money doesn’t always mean a...

In the late seventies I was distributing books on a parking lot in front of a huge shopping mall in Switzerland – just on the border of Germany and Austria.

Becoming Fearless
by Bhakta Corey I was distributing in a Walmart parking lot in San Antonio, Texas the other day. I handed a book to a young mother who was carrying her two or three year old daughter in her arms.
