Hare Krsna,
Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!
March was another great month of book distribution, with almost 500,000 books and magazines distributed.
Surely Srila Prabhupada is pleased with the steady distribution of his books more than forty years after his departure. It’s still going strong.
A special day is coming, the appearance anniversary of Sri Nrsimhadeva, who protected His devotee Prahlada.
Prahlada was dear to the Lord because he was Krsna conscious. He is the example of a devotee in one of the nine processes of devotional service, the process of remembering the Lord.
Another reason he was dear to Krsna was because of his compassion.
He prayed, “I am not at all afraid of material existence, for wherever I stay I am fully absorbed in thoughts of Your glories and activities. My concern is only for the fools and rascals who are making elaborate plans for material happiness and maintaining their families, societies and countries. I and simply concerned with love for them.”
For many decades the European devotees have been having Nrsimhadeva marathons. Usually they last for a week, or in some places a few days.
It would be very pleasing to Lord Nrsimhadeva if around the world devotees could increase their distribution of Srila Prabhupada’s books by having these mini-marathons. Or at least try to arrange your day to go out before or on Nrsimha-caturdasi and distribute some books. Lord Nrsimhadeva and Srila Prabhupada will be pleased.
Your servant,
Vijaya Dasa

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.
