The annual Winter Book Distribution Marathon is always an important time for Bhaktivedanta Manor, and indeed ISKCON as a whole. It’s a time when many devotees from across the community defy many odds and distribute Srila Prabhupada’s books to the interested public. With the coldest winter we have seen for a while, accompanied with a blanket of snow, it was sometimes a challenge! However, no less than 290 devotees threw on their jackets and bravely took to the streets to disseminate spiritual knowledge for the betterment of society.
