Who is Visnu?
While I was distributing books in Balboa Park at the Japaese Friendship Gardens, a middle-aged man came to my table and asked me a question.
“Who is Visnu?”
“He’s an incarnation of Krsna.”
“The reason I’m asking is that about a year ago I had a dream, and Visnu appeared, big and blue. A bit frightened, I started saying, ‘Visnu, Visnu, Vishnu,’ though I had never heard that name before I had this dream.
“It was all quite unusual, so I started praying to Jesus. After the dream I went on the internet to find out who Visnu is. I found some vague information.”
I told him, “The reason this happened to you is because in your past life you had some attraction to Visnu. So now He has come to remind you. You’re very fortunate. This Bhagavad-gita was spoken by Krsna, the origin of Visnu. He guides us how to live in a way that we can advance in spiritual life, so it would be very good for you to read it.”
He agreed and gave a nice donation, so I gave him more books and invited him to our Krsna lounge program on Thursday nights.
Your servant,
Vijaya Dasa
