A devotee often spreads Hare Krishna in their work place without trying.


I came to work yesterday at the Clark Stadium in Plano. Hayes told me that he had gone to Kalachandji's twice on Saturday. He went to Kalachandjis for lunch and dinner.


Fuzzy the motor director groaned about getting old,🗿 so I told him about how the body goes through 6 different transformations while the self always stays the same. 🤔 He said "yeah thats right."💡 like he was already in on the knowledge of Bhagavad Gita. 📚 50 years of the Krishna Consciousness movement in America has gotten  many people to think in terms of Srila Prabhupada's books.🦉 Especially when it comes to life and death💀 as Srila Prabhupada is the only one with all the answers. 🗿


Remember when the devotees in North America discovered that they could buy record albums for a dime each by artists that were unsellable,like freddy fender.💽 The devotees would drive around 🚙🎤 and sell people a stack of the records with one of Srila Prabhupada's books,📖 for various donations. 💰

Tom the forklift driver told me that he really appreciated the experience of getting a bunch of records that nobody else had, from a Hare Krishna guy .


I bought a portable Blue-tooth speaker from Navadvip. It was stolen while charging backstage  So I replaced it with a Sony that is really loud.

This morning while working at Starplex, from Youtube, I put on the" Vrindavan 1974 "album with Kausalya singing and the work crew listened to the whole album while putting up spotlights and such.

Then I put on the Radha Krishna Temple and Yamuna's voice filled the area. Eventually during the middle of the Hare Krishna Maha mantra Paul the crew chief asks "Mishra, what the &*&% are we listening to?"

I replied "Bengali music."

Paul goes, "bungalow golly?"

And Timmy the supervisor guesses,"christmas carols?

And Paul says "Krishna carols."

They did not ask me to turn it off so the crew heard the rest of the Kirtan.
