Submitted via Vijaya Dasa ( Iskcon Sankirtana Ministry ) We went on sankirtan in Zenica Bosnia. I knocked on a door and a lady opened.

He works as a barber.” “Madam, please … Continue reading Only Prabhupada’s Books

Day four
On this day, I approached a lady at a table outside a coffee shop and asked her if she knew where I could find a vegetarian restaurant. As she replied, I could hear that she spoke with an American accent. I asked her if she was from California. Yes she was, she answered. I told her that I had lived in San Diego for three years. She responded with amazement that she lives in San Diego. I enquired what had brought her to Maseru and she replied that she was with the Peace Corps working in education with young children. I then asked her if she knew Bob Cohen, who had also been in the Peace Corps many years ago.
I sat down at the table and handed her a Perfect Questions Prefect Answers, showing her Bob Cohen’s name at the back of the book. Continue reading “Maseru, Lesotho March 2013 Day 4”

by Madhumangala dasa
In the morning, with great eagerness, I set out to distribute books. The first person I encountered liked the books, but said she did not have any money. Just then another lady appeared with a twenty Rand note in her hand and said to me: “I would like to take a book. Yesterday I did not have any money.” I gave her a Beyond Birth and Death. Shortly after that, I met a group a young students. As they curiously asked me where I was from, I handed each one of them a book and began preaching to them. More and more students came to listen and the crowd got a little bigger.
This gave me an opportunity to introduce them to the holy name of the Lord! Continue reading “Maseru, Lesotho March 2013 Day 2”
Maseru, Lesotho March 2013 Day 1
by Madhumangala dasa
For a long time now, I had wanted to come here to Lesotho to assist Srila Prabhupada and to spread the glories of the holy name of Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in Maseru, the capital city of Lesotho. Ekatmaka had invited me to come down here more than a year ago, and by the mercy of Guru and Gauranga, I finally came. Ekatmaka is from the Ukraine and had lived in Israel before coming to South Africa together with his wife, who is from the Philippines. She is a gynaecological surgeon and has been a volunteer for the United Nations. They first lived in Tzaneen in the northern province of South Africa. After her contract at the hospital there expired, she got a post at a hospital in Maseru. So indeed I was most fortunate to have them assist me in my service to Srila Prabhupada’s book distribution mission.
