15 degrees below zero

15 degrees below zero, by Haripada dasa
I share more stories of Sankirtana, in 1986 we did the Christmas Marathon in Navarra, Spain, we were 15 devotees and we rented a very big apartment for the whole month of December, that winter was very hard, we were on the street distributing the first song from the Srimad Bhagavatam, a luxury book with more than 1,000 pages, it was snowing and it was 15 degrees below zero, we rented a large van and put a butane stove inside, and when we could not stand the cold we went to the van to warm up , I would tell people, please, a question, and people would reply that there is no time for questions, it was difficult to give the books, God or Krishna distributed through me every day from 20 to 25 Bhagavatams, I I think people bought us books out of compassion, I remember we gave a Bhagavatam to a local policeman and this man phoned the Nueva Vrajamandala farm and told them that here in Pamplona there are some young Hare K rishnas distributing the first chant of Srimad Bhagavatam, I have read it and I have come to the conclusion that these young people are heroes, because they are sacrificing their lives to give us the purest and sublime message that can be given to human society.
This story that I am going to tell now is incredible, we were distributing the first song of The Srimad Bhagavatam, a luxury book with more than 1,000 pages in a car park in the center of Valencia, Spain, there were going to park politicians, businessmen, professionals, etc., I gave a very successful entrepreneur a Bhagavatam, in a few minutes we made a great friendship, and at the time of giving me the donation he took out his wallet and told me that I do not know what to give you as a donation, and I with all the tranquility of the world I grabbed the wallet and looked in the wallet for the largest bill, I grabbed a bill of 10,000 pesetas or 100 dollars, seeing this the employer caught a fit of laughter, began to laugh and kept saying this I did not I can believe it, I can not believe it, I got his laugh and I also started to laugh, when we laughed enough the businessman gave me his card and told me that if you want work there you have your house, I told him what thanks per or that I work for the Supreme Chief, God or Krishna, He is Pure Goodness and the Supreme Controller, the man was very pious and told me that that is very good.
