Krsna helps out
Recently, on a Sankirtan Saturday, Michael, Gopinath and I decided to distribute on K-road in Auckland. Michael suggested catching a bus, since it costs only fifty cents. I felt compelled to pay for the tickets, so I jumped in first and pulled out my wallet. Unfortunately, there were no coins, and I gave twenty-dollar note to the bus driver. He frowned and asked for coins. I had to apologize. With a loud...
World Sankirtan Newsletter for August 2013
Hare Krsna Dandvat Pranam, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! For the first time in many years (maybe decades) the Los Angeles temple was the number one temple in the world in August with 30,792 book points.

Falling in love with Krsna Book
"Krsna: The Supreme Personality of Godhead." Somehow, by the will of Providence, I ended up with a few cases of these this summer during our 7-week music festival tour.

I said a few more persuasive things: "A wise man once said, 'If you don't learn something new about life every day you waste that...
Radharani’s favorite flower
“Dear Radharani, no-one can attract Krishna's glance without your blessings, kindly help me to understand how I can follow in Your footsteps and make Krishna my only aim. I’m so impersonal I barely notice you as Krishna’s most beloved” Setting up my book box at Henderson, I meditated on the one and only point I could remember from Prana Prabhu’s class that morning at the Temple –...
Krsna consciousness on the Internet
A lady came for the first time to our preaching program in Turin, Italy. She was wearing tilak and kantimala and had a japa bag. She brought along a dish that she said was already offered to her Deities. A devotee asked her where she got in contact with devotees and which temple she visits. She answered, "Temple? Devotees? I don't know any devotees, and I have never been in a temple!" The devotee...
