Our founder Acharya His Divine Grace Swami A.C. Bhaktivedanta Srila Prabhupada used to say to their disciples, temple is not mandatory for us to spread Krishna Consciousness all over the world, but Book distribution is very much important for us to spread Krishna Consciousness.
If a person buy one book his life may be turned, and that is the best preaching work we all can do.
Every year we meet with new people and distribute them Bhagwad Gita, and when they start reading their life change automatically.
Here I am going to share one incident what we faced last year during book distribution, there were three-four young girls came to eat pani-puri we were also kept our stall near pani-puri shop.
I asked one of them, please take Bhagwad Gita, she refused and started chatting to her friend.
There was one girl she came to me and asked, uncle how much for one copy? I told her it's only Rs. 140 are you willing to take?
She told yes, I needed, I have heard there are so many things inside it which is useful in our life. Off course I replied! You must get lesson from this Gita which is not there in any other books.
She felt little nervous and told, but uncle we have only 50 rupees and that is for pani-puri, can you manage it if we give you 40 rupees and 10 rupees for our pani-puri?
I smiled,why not I will give you in 40 rupees and they each contributed 10-10 rupees and promised me they all read together.
One of the prabhuji were smiling and listening that conversation and told me, this girl is very smart she knows the value of Bhagwad Gita how important it is and it is more important than pani-puri.
So, it's humble request to all, if we give one copy of Bhagwad Gita to student, house hold, business man, professional it can turned their life.
To get copy of Bhagwad Gita and inquiry related to it, you can comment below.
