Parasuram das: Food for All offer their heartfelt gratitude to Liam Payne from One Direction for his serious donation.
One Direction have sold more records than the Beatles in the USA, in only 3 years they had 61 songs go to number 1 in the charts.
In order to engage in devotional service we must be resolute in purpose and aim, in short we must be focused in one direction! [ekena manasa]
Liam’s kind donation of £40,000 will cover the basic costs of 80,000 plates of Prasad going out to homeless and isolated people in London.
Such an act of sacrifice from Liam is greatly appreciated and will bring the greatest benefit to so many.
Food for All is a unique charity being 90% funded by the Rock n Roll community.
I don’t understand the point of mentioning
“ One Direction have sold more records than the Beatles in the USA, in only 3 years they had 61 songs go to number 1 in the charts.”
Is it really necessary to mention the above?
The writer should have focused on the positive side & humanitarian benefits,
Why mentioned the Beatles and above comparisons.
Wonderful service, Parasuram Prabhu! In the mood of the original UK pioneers.
Hare Krishna, I tried to explain how One Direction are on a level with the Beatles on record sales as I know the devotees would have never heard of them, they are a commercial band.
The boy sacrificed some of his hard earned cash for the benefit of others, a very charitable noble act.
Where as every devotee knows the Beatles, they made sacrifices on the path of devotion and some wrote highly elevated devotional songs.
Hey Para,
Great work, but your stats are of. They're an incredibly popular group, having sold over 70 million records, but they've only released 17 singles and none of which made it to No 1 in the states, although about 4 made it to No 1 in the UK. I don't believe they've sold more records in the states than the Beatles. Beatles having sold 1.7 billion albums worldwide. Your out of touch with the music scene since your old days in Dublin.:) :) :)
Anyway well done with the donation and the great work your doing. Your old friend Ram.
Para, you're the greatest. I could never hang out with superstars.
