The Powerful words of Prabhupada

By Suresvara dasa By Krsna’s mercy I found that no one could defeat me in any argument; no matter how educated they might be by material estimation. I spoke to a college professor once when I was selling books in Knoxville Tennessee. He said he was a scientist. He looked at my devotee dress and said our movement was just a bunch of sentimentalist – just dancing and chanting in the street. I stated something which I had...

It’s always good to have a book at hand

Dear devotees. Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! Here are two short stories. Last Kartika I was on pilgrimage in Sri Vrndavana dhama. I took one Finnish Science of Self Realization with me just in case I meet someone interested in Krsna consciousness on the way. On my flight from Helsinki to Delhi I was sitting next to an important businessman who was working in India. We had a nice discussion, but...

I Dreamed About You

by Phalguna Dasa Recently I read some stories about dreams that reminded me of an incident of a few years ago when I was distributing books at a concert in California. The distribution was sweet during the pre-concert hours, and we decided to do the "blow-out," that is, waiting until the concert ended and then stopping people as they were rushing to their cars. Most people try to reach their cars and get out of the parking...
