World Sankirtan Newsletter for March 2015
Hare Krsna,
Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!
The month of March was very good for Santiago, Chile. This was the No. 1 temple in South America, with 5,102 book points — a 475% increase. The devotees in Chile not only distribute lots of books but also have great harinamas. I was there last year — very nice.
London also had a great month of book distribution. This was the No. 1 temple in Europe in March, with 4,108 book points — an increase of 235%. The new sankirtan leader is appropriately named Naam Sankirtan Prabhu.
Srila Prabhupada said, “Our book distribution is the most important task in our society. Therefore I am giving so much stress and I am working so hard on this, because this is my life and soul, according to the order of my Guru Maharaja.” (room conversation, Dec. 31, 1976, Bombay)
We are attaching some nectar from our archives, the oldest known existing official Sankirtan Newsletter from February 1974. Special mercy for anyone who can provide a copy of the very first one!
Your servant,
Vijaya Dasa
