Here is a nice message from Srila Prabhupada to all those who are distributing his books.

O my lord, great philanthropic souls travel on the earth on behalf of the Supreme Personality of Godhead to show compassion to the fallen souls who are averse to the sense of subordination to the Lord.

Tall, young, and confident, Peter told me he was studying English and history in Sydney and was visiting Auckland for only one day. I introduced myself as a monk and handed him the...
