Book Distribution can be an adventure
Distributing at the Santa Monica Promenade in Los Angeles, I approached a man, showed him Prabhupada's books, and explained a little. While I was presenting the books his wife showed up.
She asked him, "What are you doing?" in a heavy way.
"I'm looking at the books this man is showing me."
I was thinking, "I'll be real surprised if this man walks away with a book. Again, it's up to you Krsna."
Then I asked for a donation. He found the books interesting, so he started going for his wallet.
Then she started pushing his wallet back into his pocket, saying, "Don't give him any money, let's go!"
Really heavy!
Never a dull moment on book distribution.
He said, "These books look interesting, and I'm going to give a donation for them, so leave me alone!"
Then he walked away from her so that he could give a donation in peace. I just stood back and watched this man's determination to get Srila Prabhupada's books. Book distribution can be an adventure.
