The Sankirtana devotees are very dear to Krishna. Because you are doing the field work of book distribution, Krishna has immediately recognized them as true servants. Just like during war time, a farm boy or ordinary clerk who goes to fight for his country on the front immediately becomes a national hero for his sincere effort. So Krishna immediately recognizes a preacher of Krishna Consciousness who takes all risk to deliver His message. [Letter By Srila Prabhupada to Uttamasloka, 11 December 1975]
This letter appeared in our mail box this morning, and we thought it worthy of posting, as we are always in debt to the sankirtan/book distributors and applaud their efforts.
Letter from Kanhaiya DasAnudas
Hare Krishna to All
Please accept my humble obesiances with all glories to Srila Prabhupada
I just wanted to update you all with our little effort of Srila Prabhupada’s book distribution at Diwali Festival, organized by HTCC, Bothell.
I would like to first of all convey my heartiest thanks to our Bothell temple authorities, who has given us opportunity to set up our book stall at the event. Lord Krishna will certainly bless them all for this.
Many people asked us if we are representing any organization. Let me state this that we do not represent any profit or non organization – we simply do this to please our Spiritual Master and Lord Shri Krishna. If by the medium of these books, the Kirtan we do, or by any means, if we are able to infuse Krishna’s pinch of love in the hearts of people then our mission to obey the orders of Srila Prabhupada is considered successful. These are all the ‘Original books’ unchanged version by Srila Prabhupada. We do not make any profits from our book distribution program. If anyone has money they can donate us, but if not then the books are still available to them to take.
Our sole purpose of “distributing books”, is to fulfill the orders of our Spiritual Master Srila Prabhupada, who’s Spiritual Master once ordered Him “When you get some money – ‘Print some books'”. We also wanted to make our lives worthy by following on the orders and desires of our beloved Spiritual father Srila Prabhupada.
