Post Marathon talk by His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami
Post marathon talk, Johannesburg, February 2, 2003: In Vrindavan in 1977, when Srila Prabhupada was enacting his final pastimes, he appeared very sick. For weeks on end, he practically would not eat anything. Only once in a while he would take a little fruit juice or diluted milk. But Tamal Krsna Maharaja, who was Srila Prabhupada's secretary at that time, used to read out letters to him from different devotees. Srila Prabhupada...
Book Sold on Film
Johannesburg: The shooting of an episode of the "Abhay Charan" television series is being done right now here in Johannesburg. One scene was that of a Harinam party dancing through town. [it's supposed to be Detroit in 1970]. I am playing the role of Shyamasundara Prabhu. When the scene was done, the director and cameraman asked me to discretely walk up to a group of non-devotees who were discussing among themselves...
Book Distribution Nectar from Chowpatty
NECTAR – 1 Bhakta Prabhajan, part of H.H.

This material world as we all know is a dangerous place, therefore we should be more cautious when were out...
“A Banana for a friend….”
Pamho, AgtSP Berlin, Germany: One day during the marathon, I noticed my SKT partner was having an exceptionally huge day while I was struggling like crazy. At one point I also noticed that his book cart was running out early in the day, so somehow I managed to unlock and take it the van to reload it for him. When I came back he was kind of upset that I would serve him like that, but anyway…… Then he said he was thinking of...
A Letter from Taiwan by Aisvarya Prabhu
Dear Distinguished Vaisnavas and Vaisnavis, Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to your services! This past year I had the fortune to visit Poland, Greece, and the Far East. The people have something common, and that is: "In this iron age of Kali men have but short lives. They are quarrelsome, lazy, misguided, unlucky and, above all, always disturbed." (SB 1.1.10) We all tend...
