Just see the effect of Srila Prabhupada’s books

I am so much grateful that you have enjoyed studying my books. Many young intelligent persons such as yourself are studying these books in the colleges and universities all over the world. Actually anyone who tries to understand these books will become a great realized devotee of Lord Krsna gradually. The original potency of the sastra remains in these books because I have not added or opinionated anything of my own. I have simply...

Srila Prabhupada’s books are so potent, they sell themselves

One cold winter day during the marathon in Vancouver Canada, I started out with enthusiasm, but after a few hours of rejections, I started to feel like I was wasting my time. It got so bad that I stopped my usual way of approaching people and just stood there kind of mumbling at people as they briskly ran past me to get out of the cold weather. Eventually, I saw this fellow walking towards me. He was amongst a large group of people...

Malawi Africa discovers Prabhupada’s books – Part 02

Then while I was explaining to them about the books I saw all members of the family...

Getting a taste again

Yesterday, for the first time in two years, I went out for book distribution with the harinama party. While we were proceeding, I started praying to Srila Prabhupada for His mercy and blessings so I could distribute some books, as I had lost the taste for door-to-door distribution, and to revive myself I took shelter of the harinama party. Since it was going to be only a one-hour harinama, I decided not to take many books. There were...

The Power of the Holy Names and Prabhupada’s Books

Another day of sankirtan in Lisbon, Portugal's capital: I was talking to a lady who was somewhat undecided about the books; she told me that she was already practicing yoga and didn't need the books because she already knew everything. In the middle of the conversation, another lady came closer to us and exclaimed "Hare Krishna!!" with so much enthusiasm that she shocked both me and the lady I was talking to. Looking...
