“Empty My Book Table”

On the morning of June 29th, Srila Narayana Maharaja came to the Temple Hall for a darsana with all the devotees. At that time devotees from the various countries were able to ask questions. Here is one such question and answer:

[Rama-kanta dasa:] What is the best method for your devotees in Holland to preach and to bring one hundred devotees to you at Kartika?

[Srila Narayana Maharaja:] Do as I am doing. Follow me, and all those who are preaching on my behalf. Perform nagara-sankirtana (chanting in the streets, parks, and other public venues), give classes like the classes we are conducting here, go on book distribution, go from door-to-door and tell harikatha. This is the process.

My book-table is here. I am requesting all of you again and again to empty my book-table. Take books and distribute them to your friends and others – and also take my posters. We distributed all the books (and posters) from the book table in Badger. But alas, here the books are remaining on the table. I think that perhaps the devotees here are not qualified to take my books, and that is why they are not taking them all. I want to see that my table is empty. Today, I want to see this. Otherwise, I will think you are not pure devotees. I will think that you are not fulfilling my desires.
