Johnny Rotten

Dear Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Dear Prabhu's, Please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada! On the 14th of April H.G.Eka Gauranga dasa(JPS) and myself were distributing Srila Prabhupada's books in an open parking lot area in Kansas.

Warm Welcome for Book Distributors

Bhakta Manoj reports on his activities: For the past three fortnights, since February 1, I was ably supported by three other devotees: Amit Prabhu ( a student and a devotee at Radha-Gopinath Temple, Mumbai), Achyutanand Prabhu (Lokanath Maharaja's disciple and a householder), and Janaki Ballabh Mataji (also a disciple of Lokanath Maharaja, and the wife of Achyutanad).
