Hare Krsna!
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
ISKCON Bangalore’s Jaganatha Mandir got off to a great start in 2018, with 17,000 book points. Some very enthusiastic book distributors earned Bangalore the No. 1 spot in the Small Temple category.
The New York Harinama Party long ago started out doing just harinama, then some book distributors joined them. Now they are steadily pouring out books to New Yorkers. Srila Prabhupada would be pleased to hear this, as the Big Apple is among the most important cities in the world. In January, they did 3,605 book points and earned the No. 6 spot among the small temples in the world.
Here’s a nectarean letter by Srila Prabhupada:
“This, our book distribution, is the most important task in our society. Therefore I am giving so much stress and am working so hard on this. Because this is my life and soul, according to the order of my Guru Maharaja, and by his grace it is to some extent successful. And I took it seriously, and I take it seriously now. That is my life and soul. I never tried in India to construct big temples or even in your country, we didn’t. I never tried. But I was personally selling books. That is the history.”-Room conversation, Bombay, December 31, 1976
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).
Note: Individuals distributing an unusually large number of books will
automatically be put in the Special Teams Unlimited (Subsidized) category
unless they explain why they belong in the Regular category.
