Author: Bhakti Vikasa Swami 1) 100 EUROS

It happened the second week of marathon. There was over noon and I haven't distributed any books yet - so I was praying to Lord Krishna very intensely. "My Lord, I am completely helpless, but on your permission I can distribute books to this people." When I rung on the next door nice lady comes and takes two books. "Thank you my Lord". At the next door math's instructor takes four books. Few doors later I meet one very interesting lady. She already red Path of Perfection and she like it very much. After nice talk and presentation of the whole set I asked her for donation - "you can give 50 euros" I said. As she was reaching for the wallet I spontaneously add: " You can also give 100 euros if you want". And she coldheartedly starts to take out big "bills". 20 euros, another 20 euros, another 20 euros, iI was watching from the distance and my heart started to bet faster. "This is generous" I thought to myself. And the lady puts out the forth and also the fifth bill - altogether 100 euros. "Ups, this is enough for two sets" I am smiling silently. "This is all I have, is it enough?" she asks. "Yes, off course, very generous of you. I didn't expect so much. Just wait a moment to bring you all the books."As I was running down the stair, I have been calculating In my head how many books can I give her for this amount of Laxmi. "One full set, three mini sets plus one Bg, althogether 19 books, unbelievable." As I was caring them in my hands the stock reached over the top of my head. As I enter like this in here apartment, she said" O Santa Claus came". I explained to her which books she received and that she can give 3 extra mini sets for presents. We separated in completely transcendental atmosphere, wishing each other all the best. I was filling like flying in the air. This was the all merciful nrila Prabhupada marathon.

2) THREE TIMES.

It was around noon I and came to high, locked iron gates. I rung the bell hoping someone would come to the gates. Usually in this kind of circumstance people kick your from "safe" distance, bust I was counting on the mercy of guru, Krishna, vaisnavas and specially Srila Prabhupada. Finally big women open the doors and shouts what I want. "Delivery, today everyone receives something" I shout back. She comes down the stares and I present her the books, still behind locked gates. After short talk she takes BG and first part of SB1. I continuo along the street and stop passing by car. Driver was smiling and threw conversation we discover that that lady is his wife. I offer him other books and he takes the second part of SB1. But this is not all. In the evening he parks the car right ahead of me and so me met again. I asked him if his wife is happy with the books and he nodes smilingly. He said he wants them also for his son. "No problem" I said and we go to his store and make a "business". In this way Lord Krishna showed to this family his mercy three times in a day.
