Really nice Indian gentleman who was on his way back from a business meeting. At first he told me that he didn’t want any of the books because he already has several of them. Then I asked him where he’s from and he told me that he’s from Hyderabad. So I told him that my best friend is from there too and he’s right here, let me introduce you. He became very enthusiastic to meet him so I called Mahotsaha prabhu over and he came up to him quickly. They spoke to each other in Telugu. Mahotsaha prabhu asked him If he wants a Srimad Bhagavatam set, he could donate a monthly payment towards it instead of paying for it up front but the gentleman told him that he has a full Bhagavatam set already. After a short pause, he volunteered to offer a donation for a “Sapta” set! He was saying that his mother passed away recently and he wanted to offer this donation on her behalf. He also told us that he likes the Hare Krishnas very much and that he spent some time recently in New Vrindaban and really enjoyed his visit. He ended up giving $108 donation so we added the "Prabhupada Lilamrita" as well!
