Hare Krsna,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Among the large temples, Durban had a 148% increase in book distribution in September, with 2,070 book points. I have distributed books in Durban. It’s very difficult. You have to be resolute in purpose – vyavasayatmika buddhir.
The medium temple Simhachalam (Germany) had an increase of 119%, with 5,387 book points. Earlier this year I was at Simhachalam to give a book distribution seminar, and I was impressed by how enthusiastic the devotees were to just hear about book distribution. It was inspiring. Now we see how enthusiastic they are to distribute Srila Prabhupada’s books.
The medium temple Bhopal (India) had its biggest increase ever: 46%, with 2,423 book points. In 1984, an industrial accident that leaked a gas killed 3,787 people. Devotees are giving the people there spiritual life through the message of Krishna in the form of Srila Prabhupada’s books.
The very small temple in Sofia (Bulgaria) had the biggest increase (185%, with 3,380 book points). A very nice couple there asked me about ten years ago to help them get a motorhome for book distribution. With the help of some of you, we purchased a nice one, and they are still using it to distribute books all over the country.
Another vehicle, a bus, is now needed in Nepal for ten distributors. During Kartika, if you give charity, you receive much more spiritual credit than at other times. What we have is not ours. It’s Krsna’s. He owns everything: isavasya idam sarvam. He lets us borrow things, and we, somehow, in illusion, think they are ours. To give charity to spread His glories is a nice way to show gratitude for the things He let us borrow.
If any of you are interested in donating for the Nepal sankirtan bus, please contact me through my website: www.iskconbookdistribution.com — thanks.
Your servant,
Vijaya Dasa

FAIR PLAY RULES
1997 GBC Resolution #103: That the score system for the Sankirtan Newsletter
is changed to include the following for individual distribution:
1. The category "Regular"
(a) to count only literature which is actually sold for some profit
(ideally double BBT price) and given into the hands of the
receivers personally.
(b) literature distributed by accepting post dated checks shall only be
counted when at least the BBT price has been received.
2. The new category "Subsidized" for the following methods of distribution
for individuals:
(a) devotees working in teams of two or more and recording their group
effort as one score.
(b) subsidized books which are sold for BBT price or less.
(c) sponsored books which are given to people who can value them
(i.e. VIPs, libraries, schools, prisons, etc.).
Those individuals who are doing these types of subsidized distribution
must specify it when reporting scores to the newsletter. Temple and
Country scores stay the same. There is no need to report temple scores
in two categories.
3. Free distribution
Free distribution by individuals and temples who give out literature
free of cost shall not be counted in the newsletter (except as provided
for in "Subsidized" above).
