Description

Sastra Dana distributes Bhagavad-gitas to Army Chaplains and Chapplain assistants. We give them a few copies to give to the soldiers who are looking to read the Bhagavad-gita. We also give them out to anyone who sees us reading and asks about it. "We try to be good devotees through our service and example."

Though the Department of Defense has authorized the recruitment of "Hindu" Chaplains since 1998, they have yet to attract any. It is the dream of one of our soldiers to become the first.

Previously, we have distributed the soft bound Bhagavad-gitas because that is cheaper, but the vinyl Bhagavad-gitas would certainly be much better as they are more convenient and can fit in soldiers' uniform pockets. Note that the retail price for these Bhagavad Gitas is higher than the amount of this donation. We are getting the books from BBT directly at "printed cost", so a small donation for these books goes a long way.

Please note that many Christian groups print and distribute to US soldiers vinyl Bibles of the same dimensions like our vinyl Bhagavad-gita. Certainly we can also distribute Bhagavad-gitas.

To sponsor vinyl Bhagavad-gitas for distribution to soldiers, simply enter the quantity that you want to donate. Each donation item represents 1 Bhagavad Gita.

Sastra Dana is a charitable organization dedicated to Srila Prabhupada's book distribution. Your donaton is tax deductible and you will be given a receipt for your contribution.
Sastra Dana: The Mission:

The purpose of Sastra Dana is to enable you to participate directly in the missionary activities of distributing Srila Prabhupada's books by sponsoring them. Our goal is to expose as many people as possible to the spiritual information given in Srila Prabhupada's books.

How Do We Distribute the Books?

By placing donated books in locations where they are properly kept and read, such as libraries, schools, motels, hotels, hospital waiting rooms, government offices, dentists' offices, coffee shops, and nail and hair salons. Sastra Dana members also distribute books to relatives, colleagues, etc.

How Can You Participate?

By sponsoring the books, by coming up with creative ideas for getting donations or for distributing books, by personally distributing the sponsored books, by telling others about the program, etc.

What are the Benefits of Sastra Dana?

Everyone benefits! People in general benefit by getting a chance to read about Krishna, and you directly participate in the preaching mission of Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Srila Prabhupada. Your help increases book distribution, which is the highest welfare work for all humanity.


The Government Wants You to Be Armed

Its not just the NRA and the gun manufactures, it is a united states military that wants Americans to be armed. This is why the NRA is so powerful. The military wants children to play with guns, shooting video games and toys soldiers and when theyre old enough they want them to have a gun to make the military stronger. It is fascinating how the military convinces NRA members that they need a gun to protect themselves from the evil government, when it is the evil government that wants them to have guns. If youre against government then you shouldnt get a gun. American boys are indoctrinated and brainwashed since childhood into the belief that they need a gun and should have a gun to be a man. I did not fall into that brainwashing because I was raised by my mother and seven sisters. This is why we have the million mom March on Washington against guns and no men, but me, are against guns. I contacted the million mom organization, to see if I could become a member or start my own organization of men against guns. Not many men will be against guns unless they had no father that was indoctrinated and brainwashed by the government. But even women are brainwashed into thinking men should have guns, as it was my sister who bought me a 22 rifle as soon as I was old enough to legally own one. The Army claims they have all volunteer army, but the only way out is to commit suicide. The people attacking me on my website are government officials of the military. They dont want you to know the truth. Its all about keeping the people in fear to control them. The odds that a complete stranger breaks into your house for the purpose of killing you is almost absolute zero. However every gun owner claims he has a gun to protect himself from this stranger who will break into his house to kill him. Exactly how many strangers break into peoples houses and killed the occupants, I dont think theres enough to be a statistic on it. Most of the time there is a killing it is gang-related or a domestic dispute. Most armed robberies are happening on the street, not in the home. Youre more likely to die by your own gun, than a strangers. Crime is a direct result of tyrannical governments. The more evil the government, the more people have to result to crime to survive.
I am for the Constitution, because it gives a well regulated militia the right to bear arms against a tyrannical government. The tyrannical government is making people afraid to control them and get them to purchase guns. I am not being contradictory. People say I am against guns except for the militia. Thats true. There is only one reason to have a gun and that is to go against a tyrannical government. No need for a gun for hunting, gun collecting or self defense against home invaders or even robbers on the street. The home invaders and the robbers on the street are victims of the tyrannical government. They are just trying to survive the best way they know how. I am disabled I cannot work, I am getting a disability check. If I was not getting a disability check, I would be robbing people or breaking into houses for a living. I suffer from chronic pain from overuse syndrome in both shoulders. Witch means I can work for 20 minutes and suffer five hours to several days of pain, before I can do anything else. Id rather not do the 20 minutes worth of work and have little pain. I am actually getting tired of the people who think that after suffering $450 billion worth of pain from my job injury, that I can get a job singing karaoke or writing books, while the industry I work at continues to make billions of dollars and injured tens of thousands of other Americans. The evil government has made people believe that all of these people are faking job injuries to get corporate money and they can just go get a job somewhere else. Jobs are slavery. We are a free country with the right to bear arms to ensure a free country. The people who are disabled from industry are being put into prisons and mental hospitals by the military industrial complex, that makes billions of dollars. They should have been sued out of business in the first job injury. I am not contradictory. If you rationalize a reason to kill someone you are a murderer. The people of God will kill, not because they rationalize a reason to kill, but because God commanded them to kill and that is the only reason to kill. I am a pacifist I will not kill for the government, I will not kill because someone try to rob me, I will not kill because you tell me to. But the minute God tells me to, I will obey God. God had told Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita to kill them all, for they have already been put to death by Gods command.
