WSN November 2016 – World Sankirtan Newsletter
The month of November was good for Gainesville, Florida, which Srila Prabhupada called a remote corner of the world so far from the birthplace of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Gainsville is known for feeding students at the University of Florida. It still does that, but now it also has become a big center of book distribution because many students have become devotees and distribute the most valuable knowledge to people: the real higher...
Arab Man Coming Back for Books Again and Again
While distributing books at the West LA College in Los Angeles, I was speaking to a man from Saudi Arabia. He is upset that there is so much fighting in the Arab countries.

In 1981 or 1982, I went to visit the Chennai temple from the Detroit temple, where I'd joined ISKCON as a brahmacari. One morning, a gentleman in a suit walked into the temple for the Deity greeting, and the Chennai devotees very happily greeted him. After the arati, he was asked to give the class.
