As, there are tricks to play Mrdnga.

What are the tricks to play Brhad Mrdnga?

HpS/ASA - Prabhupada calls them spiritual though material tricks.

For example, if you ask a question in such a way that the answer is naturally yes, eg. "you like to eat grass, right", then keep your mouth shut and smile and nod your head up and down, there is tremendous pressure for the other person to answer yes.

Of course you ask, "So you'd like to take a book, right".

Then if it takes one, two minutes, you don't say anything. You just keep the "iron smile" on your face and keep nodding your head up and down encouragingly.

There are others.

They are just regular stuff that salesmen use.

Devotees can learn some. They become habit, but the real book distribution potency is purity of purpose eg. compassion, realization by intelligent deliberation and personal austerity that these books will benefit the person!!

Thank you.

Hope you become a Sankirtan man on the level of Narada Muni.
