Even distributing a small book can turn into something amazing
I will share a story about the fructification of sankirtan. We never know what will happen. Even distributing a small book can turn into something amazing. Two Maori boys, cousins, showed up at the Bhakti Lounge shaved-up with sikhas and tilak. Where did they come from? Who were they? None of us knew. We found out that they had received “Chant and Be Happy” from a sister who had bought it at the New World mall in Papakura....
Driven by the mercy of Krsna a mother and daughter get the mercy on a drive
The ninety-year-old lady in the attached photo goes swimming three times a week near her house in Tel Aviv. In the few minutes that we were together in my taxi, she became captivated by the book I presented. Two days after, I drove her again, and she told me that her daughter is familiar with our books and they were discussing the topics in them. Yesterday, she called me again, asking for two more copies to give as presents. Her...
Oops, sorry!
I had just parked my sankirtan vehicle when a young man opened the passenger door of the car and started talking to me. I looked at him a little surprised. He was shocked. He had gotten into the wrong car! His wife was sitting in the car next to mine, and it looked just like my car. He apologized and explained why he had made the mistake.

Book distribution in Raleigh North Carolina
A few times a week, I take a long japa walk or japa hike.

Generally, I tend to be shy, but since Covid 19, I feel a sense of urgency, and people are amazingly more receptive. So I just sit on a bench or a rock, chanting, and people show...
Man proposes, God disposes
I was setting up my table at Pacific Beach, two blocks from the San Diego temple (how convenient!), when a man came by and asked, “Do you have the fifty-dollar stack of books? “Yes, I do.” I started piling the books up. “Okay. I’ll come back and get it a little later.” I thought that this guy was playing a game, but an hour later he came back. However, then he again said he’d be back later. I...
Where there is Krishna, there is Laxmi
March 6th, around noon — a beautiful sun mercifully threw its warm rays on us. Sweat melodious harinama enchanted the hearts of people in the downtown. I was distributing books, prasada, and invitations. About thirty meters from the harinama, I saw a middle-aged woman attentively listening and watching the harinam. With a smile I approached her and offered her kind words and prasada. “No thank you. I don’t need...
