It was 10am on the Sunday of 27th March 2008 when a crowd gathered on the street beside the building where Sri Krishna Mandir is situated. Residents from adjacent condominiums were also waiting by their windows, observing the proceedings. An air of excitement lingered in the air as everyone awaited the arrival of Health Minister, Mr Khaw Boon Wan.
The Health Minister graced the Geylang Serai District as part of the ministerial community visit. As Geylang Lorong 29 was one of the stopovers for Mr Khaw, Sri Krishna Mandir decided to take this opportunity to distribute a copy of the Bhagavad-Gita As It Is to the minister. His Grace Raghupati Prabhu delivered the two copies; one in English and the other in Mandarin. Mr Khaw graciously accepted the two copies of the Bhagavad-Gita As It Is. To fulfill the order of our spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, we at Sri Krishna Mandir, have to actively preach and distribute his transcendental books describing and glorifying the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Sri Krishna.
It is the mercy of Lord Sri Krishna that such a prominent head of state of Singapore was able to receive the transcendental instructions of a pure devotee in the line of disciplic succession.
Jai Srila Prabhupada!
