About this ebook

 What if you could build your devotee community, deepen your Krishna consciousness, give others the opportunity to learn about bhakti, and perform the dharma of the age all at the same time?

In this very readable book, Vaisesika Dasa discusses why we should join the family business of distributing transcendental knowledge through the written word, as well as how book distribution benefits distributors, the devotional community, and all those who receive one of Srila Prabhupada’s books.

Our Family Business makes it clear that every devotee and every service is part of the saṅkīrtana effort. Even if book distribution is not your primary service, expect to be enlightened, encouraged, and enlivened by reading this book.

Our Family Business is a timely work that will further catalyse the systematic growth of ISKCON in every town and village across the world. Not only is this a book about book distribution, but also an effective tool for organically progressing in Bhakti through cultivating the mood of giving Krishna to oneself and others, following in the footsteps of His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, Founder Acharya of ISKCON.

About the author

Vaisesika Dasa was born in 1956. As a teen, he was an avid spiritual seeker. Soon after receiving a Back to Godhead magazine from a friend in the spring of 1973, he moved into the ISKCON temple in San Francisco at the age of sixteen and, with the blessings of his parents, became a disciple of Srila Prabhupada and a full-time monk dedicated to the practice of Krsna bhakti.

Today he lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife, Nirakula Devi Dasi, also a disciple of Srila Prabhupada. Together they have developed an ISKCON community of three hundred families in Silicon Valley, which is based on the study and distribution of Srila Prabhupada’s books.

He is an initiating guru in ISKCON. He travels widely to teach the tenets of devotional service and the great art of distributing Srila Prabhupada’s books.
