About the Author
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977) was a revered spiritual leader and scholar who founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) in 1966, bringing the ancient teachings of Vaishnava Hinduism to the Western world. Born in Kolkata, India, he dedicated his life to translating and commenting on sacred Vedic texts, emphasizing devotion to Lord Krishna as the path to spiritual enlightenment. In 1965, at the age of 69, he traveled alone to New York City with little resources, where he established temples, published influential works, and inspired a global movement of bhakti yoga practitioners. His profound insights continue to guide millions seeking inner peace and divine connection through selfless service and scriptural study.
