Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

At the temple in Vancouver, a lady named Louisa has been coming to the Bhagavad-gita class for over six months. She bought two books from me, saying "It's time to start my library." When I asked her how she had come in contact with Krishna consciousness, she replied, "I'm from Poland. My father bought a Bhagavad-gita when I was a little girl. I always looked at the fascinating pictures, but I didn't know it was about Krishna. Later on, when I was a teenager in our small village, we had a regular gathering of spiritual people. They listened to an audiocassette of the Hare Krishna mantra and tried to chant along as best they could. Then I moved to Vancouver. (Now I'm 26.) My friend has a friend who is a devotee, and she gave some of us a tour of Vancouver. She said, 'Let's visit the Hare Krishna temple.' When I stepped into the temple, I saw Srila Prabhupada and said, 'Oh, that's the same man whose picture was in the book my father got when I was a kid.' Then the devotees started chanting Hare Krishna. My reaction was, 'Wow! That's the same song from the village gathering I would attend when I was a teenager.'"

She feels at home with us and is practicing Krishna consciousness.

Hare Krishna.
