Experiences of a Hare Krishna in Iraq

Gajendra and the US Army

August 13th, 2008 by Partha-sarathi dasa

Mother Mitravinda is also a soldier, she joined the Army some time ago and has made the transition to her first assignment. Below is a letter she sent today about some preaching she is doing.

Hare Krsna Prabhu,

Great story about your last program!  I am looking forward to hearing many more
pastimes when you return. yesterday I took Srimad Bhagavatam to work, I knew it would be a slow day.  Yet
I never got the chance to read it. the same soldier that enjoyed the Bhagavatam last time, the native american female, she loved the story of King Citraketu.  Yesterday she read the story of Gajendra and the crocidile.  She kept my book all day. sitting there in the motor pool I was able to give the book report and tell of the pastimes of Gajendra.The soldiers were so excited that i called BBT and ordered more books, i was
low and need to stock up again.

your servant,
mitravinda dasi
