Book distribution is never stagnant. Given enough creative freedom and encouragement, even a new devotee can device innovative strategies yielding tremendous result. One such event happened with Bh Amit (name changed on request) of Sri Sri Radha Gopinath Mandir, Chowpatty. He recalls: One day I tried a famous shopping mall in south Mumbai. I went with 25 Bhagavad Gitas and Krsna books and went inside the mall. The moment I began showing books, two security personal closed in on me. “Please forgive me,” I said, “but my Hindi is very weak, because I am from London.”
They were taken aback and in broken English replied, “That’s ok. But what are you doing here?”
“Oh I am giving these books as gifts. Here, you take one.”
I gave them each a copy and then for next three hours, they did not bother me.
People coming from the mall were all from upper class of society. I stopped them and introduced myself, “Hey, I am from London. I am doing some community work in India. Today I met so many nice people. India is the best place.”
