Christian student accepts a Bhagavad-gita
I was distributing flyers for an upcoming event in Perth, when two young men approached me and asked me what I was doing. I told them about the event and mentioned that I am a student of Bhagavad-gita. One man, Rabindra, is from Nepal and is studying the teachings of the Bible in a university. His desire is to study it himself so that he can share the teachings, and love of God, with others. He asked me what points struck me the most...
The right medicine
The other day, I was distributing books on the walking street of Oslo, the capital city of Norway. Usually, I do not often go to the walking street, only when we also have a harinama party. This time, as very often lately, another devotee came with me and did the harinama all alone, sometimes playing the harmonium, sometimes the mrdanga. I distributed books around him.

One man came to my book table with his children. After surveying the exhibit, he looked me right in the eye and said, "What...
We will edit your stories, so send them, please, and inspire many
As I travel around the world trying to encourage book distribution, the devotees thank me so much for this book distribution google group, because, they say, the stories inspire them to go out to give Krsna’s message. Many of the experiences devotees have on book distribution are so nice, so naturally other devotees are inspired by them. Unfortunately many book distributors are keeping their experiences to themselves. Please,...
The most interesting Krsna and another life saved
I was distributing at a touristy area in Denver Colorado when I approached a man offering him the Bhagavad Gita. He said, “No, not interested.” So I asked him, “Do you know what it is?” “No.” “Then how do you know you’re not interested?” “Good point, alright show it to me.” I showed him the pictures and explained a little. Then He said, “This is actually very...
