“This is for me”
Dear Devotees,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Recently, among my papers, I found this story by a Russian devotee about how he came to Krsna consciousness.
It was the morning after New Year's Eve, and I had drunk so much that I couldn't move. It wasn't nectar that I had drunk, so I just laid there hoping my hangover would wear off soon. Then with difficulty I turned my head and saw a book. With more difficulty I reached for it and was somehow able to pick it up. It was blurry to my eyes, but I read the words "Science of Self-realization," and started reading the pages very slowly. An hour and a half later, I said to myself, "This is for me." After I sobered up, I went to the temple and joined.
Your servant, Vijaya das
P.S. This devotee now is one of the most successful book distributors in the Moscow temple.
