SNB ( Sankirtan News Broadcast) :
# I met one american guy Alex,when he opened the door he said that he was not interested . I just asked him a quick question - Do you believe Karma ? He replied No. I asked him - Why dont you believe ? He said that he is from Catholic background, and he do not have faith in Karma. Then i asked him to explain why there are varieties - some people are rich, some people are poverty stricken. On what basis we go thru different situations in our life ? He said No Idea. Then i showed him Law of KARMA in Gita, and explained the KARMA philosophy . How eternal Time awards different favorable/unfavorable situations based on our KARMA. How we create our own Destiny.
Finally he got convinced that KARMA is not based on faith, its a fact and a nature Law which is working on the movements of living entities under the supervision of the Absolute Truth and bought Bhagavad Gita.
# I mentioned earlier email that i had met a Muslim guy Mohammed at Costco , he bought SSR. But he did not have change. But As promised he came to our temple on Sunday, attended Gita Class, and gave $10 donation. He seems to be a pious soul. Srila Prabhupada will surely help him to understand KC path.
# Rajini mataji could not join our Door - Door , but she was very determined and committed . so she went alone to distribute books , and collected $45. Haribol!
# Sachi Nandan could not join due to pujari service, but still he was able to convince temple visitors to buy Gita. and collected $45. Haribol!
