Two drops of nectar
I was distributing in central Wellington and met Jake, a pleasant young chap from Nelson, who had literally just arrived in town that very morning. I showed him Bhagavad-gita and asked him to comment on the picture of the transmigrating soul. His face lit up when he saw the image. He explained that he had been run over by a car when he was 7 years old and had been in a coma for 3 days. He had an extraordinary out-of-body experience...
Russia vs. America
During the marathon I was distributing in Moscow in the subways when a policeman came up to me and said, “You can not distribute books here. You have to go away!” I said, “But we have to defeat America in book distribution.” He paused and then said, “All right, go ahead.” Your servant, Acyutatma...
Children on book distribution
At our last sankirtana festival in Durban, a 12-year-old boy joined us. His name is Sudarshan, the son of Pisima Dasi, a single parent. He joined us at a mall.

I asked him if he meditates, and he casually responded. “Yeah, I do some mantras. I use a few, but mostly just chant Hare Krishna for thrity minutes every morning and night.” How exciting that there may be people like him out there just waiting...
A complete sankirtana-yajna
ISKCON Perth has a harinama party that has been going out every year in the city center for many years. Recently, being inspired by a senior devotee and a dedicated book distributor, I joined the harinama party for book distribution, something I had not done before. Although I had heard and read about it several times, I never personally experienced publically chanting the holy names. While shy in the beginning, I gradually started to...
Sharing the Gita
Bhagavad-gita is having an influence on a friend of mine and on my sister-in-law. I received a shipment of these books and asked Krishna to help me distribute them to those ready to receive this knowledge. So far, I distributed two Gitas. The first was to my sister-in-law, who has always been searching for this sort of knowledge. Like me, she searched high and low, only to be dissatisfied with the results of her searches. When I...
