One for my sister & One for me

3) One Indian family was passing by our book table and the kid saw the Bhagavad-Gita and he insisted his dad that he just wants that book. Unfortunately they already had the copy of BG hardbound in their house. But the kid was so adamant that his father had to relent to his request and had to purchase the copy of BG hardbound for $10. The kid convinced his dad that the one at home was for his sister and the one now they purchased will be for his personal use :-)………… Bhakta K

Yesterday my realtor held an "open house" to try to sell our home. A couple came by who were vegetarians. They were American musicians, but the husband was a computer genius who had come up from Redondo Beach to work in Silicon Valley. The lady said she was interested in Buddhism, and that she was proud of being an atheist (ouch). They liked our temple room and I showed her the Gaura-Nitai Deities on the altar. When I mentioned Bhagavad Gita she said she has been meaning to read it. I gave her a hardcover Gita and she spontaneously offered a $5 donation akruranathadasa
