Inspired by the book distributors all over the world, I have taken up the project of placing Srila Prabhupada's books in all the libraries at the schools and colleges in the Fiji Islands -- more than five hundred libraries.
Every week at our temple I appeal to the guests to sponsor books for the libraries, and I also appeal for donations through phone, email, and personally delivered handouts.
On November 4th I delivered the following books to DAV College in Suva, and on November 11th I sent these same books to Vunimono High School in Nausori.
Bhagavad-gita As It Is
Krsna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead
Teachings of Queen Kunti
The Science of Self Realization
Life Comes from Life

Beyond Illusion and Doubt

Appreciating our service we received this letter from DAV College which happens to be an Arya Samaj School (believers of the impersonal form of Krishna).
Dear Nityananda Das
"On behalf of the DAN College I would like to thank you for providing library books to our needy students. Your kind gesture in providing the books for our students is highly appreciated and we hope you will continue your good deeds with benevolent compassion."
With regards and best wishes,
Mrs Gyan Prasad
I have already received from devotees confirmation of sponsorship for nine more schools, to which I will deliver the books upon receipt of payment.
I will keep you informed of the progress on this project. I have also started to work extra hours at my workplace so I can afford to sponsor at least one school per month from my side as well.
Srila Prabhupada's book distribution Ki Jay!!!
Yours in the service of Guru and Gauranga,
Nityananda Das
