A hatha yogi that understands the goal : Bhakti
We saw a yogi-type looking girl walking past our book table, so I called out, “Have you tried any yoga and meditation?” She was super favorable and said, “Yes, I’m doing a yoga teacher-training course right now, and as part of my course I’m reading the Bhagavad-gita right now.” Many times, people say that they are reading or own a Gita, but it is translated by some mayavadi, so I didn’t take her...
A deep satisfaction in the heart
I met a hard-working, noble man. I told him that I am a monk and live in a monastery and that I am traveling and studying Vedic wisdom. And he said he likes to read such books. Also, his son is interested in Vedic knowledge and meditation, but somehow the young man ended up in prison. And his friend is also in jail in appalling conditions because of a court decision. He took the Krishna book with joy, especially when I explained that...

I was not feeling good about not giving a donation for a spiritual book.” She pulled out her card and told me to swipe a certain amount for the donation. Another time,...
Adam finds his way
I met Adam, a young Maori man, at a small supermarket in Hamilton, New Zealand, as he got out of his van on the way to a pest control job. He immediately showed interest in the books. He told me that when he was young, instead of reading the normal Marvel style comics he would read comics from India. He mentioned Hanuman and recognized Ramacandra’s name. After Adam gave a donation and took a Science of Self Realisation, he...
Srila Prabhupada’s book save a killer
We were on traveling sankirtana in Zenica, Bosnia. There was a slaughterhouse near the house where we stayed, and in the city center were butcher shops under the same name: Zmajevac. It sounds a bit hellish. We were trying to reach the main director during sankirtana, but without success. However, one morning, by Krishna's mercy, Bhakta Denis and I decided to try again. That morning we did our best to properly chant the holy names...
