Two Highlights From The Waikato
Recently, I went on a six-day stint in the Waikato. I was in Hamilton East–in a small car park–and stopped an athletic lady. She happened to be Joelle King, the best women squash player for New Zealand. After an injury, her ranking dropped from No. 4 in the world to 17th. Six months after her recovery, she is now up to 11th in the world. But she explained that she isn't satisfied. Her sports psychologist suggested...

The Glorious Sankirtan Devotees
Tara das- Yes, the ongoing efforts of determined book distributors is an inspiration to us all. And your service in this field is also etched in eternity. But with folded hands I suggest that such comments as "…KC is not spread by temples…" has no place in our consciousness. After all, Srila Prabhupada was quite enthusiastic to open as many temples as possible. Many conditioned souls acquire books in the temples....

Sao Paulo won the world sankirtan maraton 2 times. And i think is one of the best places to do book distribution! But for the last 4 or 5 years we didn´t had a good sankirtan party.
