Book Distribution Nectar from the US
I sold 2 books to 2 young lady students on the college street near Duke University (North Carolina)last Sunday. I invited them to come to the Siva Ratri festival that evening. They said "yes" and sure enough, they came that very evening. Garuda Prabhu was giving the lecture when they arrived. After it, one of the girls told me "you know, that man who gave the lecture tonight, he is my my Eastern religions professor at Duke University!! I couldn't believe it was him! I never knew he was a hare Krishna!"
That same evening, one 16 year old boy told me that his father has been listening to the Radha Krishna Album for the last 25 years. It is his favorite album. Because of that, the son has heard it so many times that he knows all the songs on it by heart (he started singing them one by one to me, without knowing a word of the sanscrit meaning of the songs.) He happily bought a Bhagavad Gita and gave 10 dollars. He and his highschool friends were completely blissed out and loved the super opulent Sunday Feast.
Hare Krsna.
Your servant,

There is no doubt about it: to distribute books is our most important activity.
