This document provides a biography of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). It describes how he was instructed by his guru to preach Krishna consciousness in the Western world. In 1965, he traveled to America with very little money but a strong determination to spread Krishna consciousness. He established the first ISKCON temple in New York City and eventually expanded to over 100 temples worldwide. Prabhupada authored over 70 books on Vedic philosophy and founded the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust, making Vedic texts widely available. Despite facing many challenges, he peacefully guided thousands of followers
There are many who have heard of the Hare Krishna movement at least once. Yet there are few who really know who started it all, how the movement came from India to the West and most importantly - what are the spiritual and philosophical messages that date back many thousands of years to the past. This slide presentation gives a detailed insight into the Hare Krishna movement, which in today's society is often shrouded in a veil of prejudice. This slide show is about the preciousness of ancient spiritual wisdom that, thanks to one man (A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada) - found its way from books (on scrolls) written more than five thousand years ago - to the hearts of many people around the world who have become part of the world spiritual revolution.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Long, long ago,Long, long ago, at the dawn of time,at the dawn of time, thethe
Lord created the material universes withLord created the material universes with
all the planets and living beings.all the planets and living beings.
3. Those who rebel against
the Lord and His spiritual
laws, must enter the
material realm in various
material bodies.
The obedient inhabitants of the
spiritual world happily continue their
loving relationship with Krishna.
4. The humans and
other intelligent
beings received
spiritual wisdom in
form of the Vedic
literatures.
The Vedas – the words of God
5. Spoken by Krishna Himself, the Vedic
wisdom had been passed by aural
reception from generation to generation
of topmost saints and great ascetics...
...until it was written down by Srila Vyasadeva, who was
empowered by Krishna, more than 5,000 years ago.
6. In order to preserve the
timeless Vedic wisdom for
eternity, Lord Krishna
created a chain of spiritual
masters who have passed it
to our hands.
Out of them, one outstanding for
his spiritual acumen, compassion,
knowledge and determination was
predicted thousands of years ago.
7. In the Brahma-vaivarta Purana,
Lord Krishna describes that
after 5,000 years of Kali-yuga
have passed, a great sage and
worshiper of Krishna's holy
names will appear and spread
the chanting of Krishna's names
(in the form of the Hare
Krishna mantra), not only in
India but throughout the world.
8. "Soon there will be a time when chanting of
Krishna's name will be heard in England, France,
Russia, Germany and America."
Later, in the 1800's,
Bhaktivinoda Thakura, a great
devotee, predicted in his
magazine Sajjana-toshani:
9. In answer to these prayers and predictions, in the
year of 1896, there appeared Abhay Charan De,
later known as His Divine Grace A. C.
Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
Calcutta 1896
10. Srila Prabhupada's father once bought him a small cart
to pull the Deity of Lord Jagannatha (Krishna).
So, Prabhupada would organize little festivals in his
neighborhood. Even then, among his playmates, Srila
Prabhupada was always considered the leader.
11. Prabhupada later
attended Scottish
Church College in
Calcutta, which was
administered by the
British.
Later, he refused to accept
his diploma from that college
as a protest against British
opression, although he had
actually completed all the
requirements for the degree.
12. Thereafter, in 1918,
Prabhupada married and
soon started a family.
After this, a friend
of his father, Dr.
Bose, made him a
manager of his
chemical company.
13. It was in 1922 when
Srila Prabhupada met
his spiritual master,
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta
Sarasvati Thakura, for
the first time.
Bhaktisiddhanta told Srila
Prabhupada: “You are a nice
young man, and you know
English; therefore, you
should preach this mission of
Lord specifically to the
English-speaking countries in
the Western world."
14. In 1933, Srila Prabhupada took formal
initiation from Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati,
accepting him as his spiritual master.
In 1935, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati told
him to print as many books as possible and to
distribute them throughout the world.
15. Following the desire of his
spiritual master, Prabhupada
began publishing his Back to
Godhead magazine in 1944. He
wrote them himself, had them
printed, and even rode into
town on the bus to distribute
these one-page sheets. But he
never stopped.
To this day, the Back to Godhead
magazine has been published
monthly by his faithful followers
and distributed in many languages.
16. In 1953, he had started his
League of Devotees, a small
organization of Krishna-conscious
people. This was a forerunner of
what was to be The International
Society for Krishna Consciousness.
17. In 1959, Srila Prabhupada
accepted the renounced order
(sannyasa) at the Gaudiya
Matha Keshava Temple in
Mathura to execute the order
of his spiritual master by
preaching and writing in the
English language.
18. Thereafter, he took up residence in Vrindavana, the
land of Krishna's birth. After some years, he
occupied a room in the Radha-Damodara temple.
19. While living there, though almost penniless
and sometimes only eating every other day,
he continued writing and distributing his Back
to Godhead magazine.
20. In addition to that, Srila
Prabhupada seriously spent most
of his time from 1959 to 1965
translating the multi-volume
Srimad-Bhagavatam.
Srimad-Bhagavatam is the main
scripture of the 18 Puranic texts.
21. By 1965 he had raised
funds to publish the first
three volumes of Srimad-
Bhagavatam.
Armed with this, Prabhupada felt ready to finally
carry out the instructions his spiritual master had
given him nearly 40 years earlier. Then he decided
to travel to America.
22. In 1965, Srila Prabhupada reached the shores of the
USA on the steamship Jaladuta. He arrived with the
equivalent of eight dollars in Indian rupees, a pair of
hand cymbals, and a small trunk of his books.
During his voyage at sea, Srila Prabhupada
suffered two severe heart attacks.
23. Not knowing anyone, he thought, "I am an old
man. I cannot do very much. But what I can do,
let me do in New York City, which is the biggest
of all cities in the world."
He maintained himself by selling just enough
books to get by, and staying here and there.
24. Humbly considering himself to be the most insignificant
servant of his spiritual master, Prabhupada pushed on
with great determination to try to accomplish many
ambitious things before the time he would die.
25. In July of 1966, Prabhupada secured a storefront
(called “Matchless Gifts”) with an adjoining
apartment at 26 Second Avenue. He began holding
Bhagavad-gita classes at 6 AM and 7 PM.
26. Only ten months after
his arrival to the USA,
prospective devotees
started coming to his
Matchless Gifts temple.
27. In 1966, Prabhupada officially
founded The International Society
for Krishna Consciousness.
Some devotees argued for using ‘God Consciousness’
instead. But Prabhupada replied sternly, “God has a
name - Krishna. So, why not use it?”
28. In those early days Srila
Prabhupada established
his basic program for
spreading Krishna
Consciousness, from which
he never deviated.
Every night he would sleep
only one or two hours, and
then rise early to translate.
29. In the morning hours
he would have the
early morning worship
and then give lecture.
30. The remainder of the day was
devoted to outdoor preaching,
managing, and teaching his
students about Krishna.
31. Guided by Srila Prabhupada, two
couples among his disciples opened a
Hare Krishna temple in San Francisco.
After Matchless Gifts in New York,
that was the second ISKCON temple.
32. January 29, 1967: all the cutting-edge
San Francisco bands (The Grateful Dead,
Moby Grape, Janis Joplin, Big Brother &
the Holding Company, Jefferson Airplane,
Quicksilver Messenger Service) ...
… had agreed to appear with Srila Prabhupada at the Avalon
Ballroom’s Mantra-Rock Dance, proceeds from which went to the
newly opened local Hare Krishna temple. Thousands of jubilant
hippies packed the hall.
33. His disciples were going out and opening new branches.
After NY and SF, new temples were opened in Montreal,
Los Angeles, Detroit, Boston, Philadelphia, Columbus...
34. In 1967, he returned to India and
stayed in the Radha-Damodar
temple for a few months.
35. In 1971 he visited Vrindavan with forty western
disciples. They traveled across India, setting up
public programs for thousands of people. Many
Indian people joined his spiritual family.
36. Some of Srila Prabhupada'sSome of Srila Prabhupada's
unparalleled achievementsunparalleled achievements
37. He sent his followers, chanting
the names of God, into the
streets of cities and villages.
Thus, the Hare Krishna mantra
became famous in nearly every
corner of the earth.
38. He organised traveling bus
parties in the USA and
Australia to spread Krishna's
teachings, spoken in the days
of yore and written 5,000
years ago in the timeless
Vedic literatures.
39. He sent his disciples to London, where
they recorded the single, "Hare Krsna
Mantra", with George Harrison, in 1969.
It became the fastest selling of all
the Apple Corporation's releases,
including those of the Beatles.
40. Srila Prabhupada came to London the
same year and for the first time
addressed the English public in October
1969 in Conway Hall.
41. He formally initiated approximately five
thousand disciples. These initiates represented
a sweeping diversity of nationalities, races,
ethnicities, and religious backgrounds.
42. He spoke daily on the
philosophy of Krishna
consciousness, delivering
thousands of formal lectures.
Over 2,200 were recorded
and archived.
43. He conducted many hundreds of informal
conversations on the science of Krishna
consciousness with his disciples, guests and
friends. Over 1,300 were recorded and archived.
44. He founded the Bhaktivedanta Institute to advance
Krishna consciousness within the scientific community,
engaging serious academics in the consideration of the
science of self-realization.
45. He had scores of interviews and
philosophical discussions with news
reporters, scientists, religious
leaders and politicians, as well as
meetings with world-renowned
dignitaries and celebrities.
46. He skillfully managed his international
society simply through letters and
personal meetings, virtually without the
use of a telephone.
47. In order to carry on the mission in
his absence, He counseled his
disciples on complex managerial,
philosophical and personal issues in
more than 6,000 archived letters.
48. He inaugurated the
Rathayatra Festival of
Lord Jagannatha
(Krishna) in major cities
around the globe – in
effect, bringing the
temple to the people.
49. Srila Prabhupada looked so lonely
and all by himself as he walked
towards the Red Square in Moscow.
In 1971, he planted the seed of Krishna
consciousness in Moscow, thus repeating the same
preaching strategy he previously used in the USA.
51. He introduced the "Sunday
Love Feast" - prasadam
(sanctified food) distribution,
combined with spiritual music and
lectures about Vedic wisdom.
52. He set up farm communities to
teach "simple living and high
thinking", emphasizing cow
protection and dependence on
God and nature.
53. In 1972 Srila Prabhupada introduced the
Vedic system of primary and secondary
education in the West by founding the
gurukula school in Dallas.
54. Since then, his disciples have
established similar schools
throughout the world, in order to
provide education in the principles
of devotional service.
55. In 1974, shocked and saddened upon seeing a group of
village children fighting with street dogs over scraps of
food, Srila Prabhupada told his students to begin
serving free meals to the poor and destitute.
56. Prabhupada's followers were
inspired to expand that
original effort into a global
network of free kitchens,
vans and mobile services,
establishing daily delivery to
homeless and destitute
people around the world.
58. He established 108 Krishna
temples on six continents,
installed the deity of
Krishna in each center and
trained his disciples in the
process of deity worship.
59. Highly respected by scholars for their authority, depth,
and clarity, they are used in numerous colleges worldwide.
Srila Prabhupada's most
significant contribution,
however, is his books.
60. He wrote more than seventy
books on the science of Krsna
consciousness, sleeping only a
few hours per day.
Dozens of prominent
scholars and
educators from
leading universities
praised his work.
61. He founded the
Bhaktivedanta Book Trust
(BBT) in 1972 to produce
his books. By 1976, over
55,000,000 literatures had
been published in twenty-
five languages.
His books are being
distributed in almost
every country, making the
BBT the world's largest
publisher of spiritual and
philosophical texts.
62. “So many cheaters have come from India, convincing
their foolish followers to accept them as God, that
those who are actually well versed and learned in Indian
culture have become very concerned and troubled...
63. ...For this reason I am very excited
about the publication of Bhagavad-
gita A It Is, by Sri A.C.
Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
Srila Prabhupada, from his very birth, was trained in
the strict practice of bhakti-yoga, and he appears in
a succession of gurus that traces back to the original
speaking of Bhagavad-gita by Sri Krishna.”
Prof. Kailash Vajpeye (University of Mexico,
Oriental studies), 1976.
64. “...As I came to know the
movement, I came to find that
there was a striking similarity
in the essence of what they
were teaching and in the
original core of Christianity.
...That is, living
simply, not trying to
accumulate worldly
goods, living with
compassion toward
all creatures,
sharing, loving and
living joyfully.
65. I am impressed with how much
the teachings of one man and the
spiritual tradition he brought
have impacted themselves into
the lives of so many people.
In my view, Srila Prabhupada’s
contribution is a very important
one and will be a lasting one.”
Harvey Cox, world-renowned professor
of religion at Harvard University.
66. In spite of leading an international spiritual society,
he preferred to keep a low profile, living modestly
and riding mostly on the public transport.
67. By dint of his spiritual power and
great compassion, Srila Prabhupada
turned many drug addicts,
drunkards, criminals, etc. - into ...
68. … virtuous and saintly people who
have dedicated their lives to
sharing spiritual happiness and
wisdom with the whole world.
69. “Take advantage of this rare opportunity of this human
form of life. There are 8,400,000 different species of
life through which we are rotating life after life.
So getting a human body is not an everyday affair. This
most auspicious opportunity only comes after many
millions of lifetimes in the lower species...
71. Though utterly incapacitated and fragile, he spent the the
last particles of his energy translating ancient Srimad-
Bhagavatam, with a microphone held to his mouth.
Srila Prabhupada's whole life was exemplary. In
November 1977, he also taught his followers how a
real lover of God should leave his body.
72. Buildings like this one
(samadhi mandir) were
erected to commemorate
the outstanding
contributions of this noble
soul and to enshrine his
body in Vrindavana, India.
73. This outstanding person circled
the globe fourteen times and
visited every major country to
build the house in which the
whole world could live peacefully.
