A sequel to the life of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada
Founder-Acharya of the Worldwide Hare Krishna Movement.
An incredible story of an acharya who built a house in which the whole world could live!
✨ After the grand success of The Empowered Acharya, presenting another epic in an attempt to depict the glorious personality of Srila Prabhupada.
Srila Prabhupada - At various times people have called him a scholar, a philosopher, a cultural ambassador, a prolific author, a religious leader, a spiritual teacher, a social critic, and a holy man. In truth, he was all these things and more.
Over five hundred years ago, Lord Sri Krishna appeared as Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in Navadvipa, a village in West Bengal. The purpose of His appearance was to inaugurate the Sankirtana Movement, the Yuga Dharma for this age of Kali. He declared that the chanting of His holy names would spread beyond the shores of India to every town and village in the world. He predicted that His commander-in-chief would appear to accomplish this mission. And Srila Prabhupada appeared to fulfill this prophecy.
An astrologer prepared the horoscope for Srila Prabhupada and revealed: When He reaches the age of seventy, he will cross the ocean, become a great teacher of religion and establish 108 Krishna temples.
And this is exactly what happened.
Srila Prabhupada set out to America in 1965 and established the International Society for Krishna Consciousness at the age of sixty-nine. He traveled around the world fourteen times, established more than 100 temples of Krishna, and initiated more than 10000 disciples into Krishna consciousness.
Srila Prabhupada arrived in the US during the decade of discontent; there was widespread dissatisfaction with America’s war with Vietnam. The American youth created their counter-culture popularly known as hippie culture. They were trying to break away from the status quo, searching for an alternative. Srila Prabhupada presented Krishna consciousness as an alternative.
Srila Prabhupada brought the Hare Krishna Movement to the public eye by chanting in the parks, distributing the Back to Godhead Magazine, conducting love feasts and delivering lectures from the Bhagavad-gita and Srimad Bhagavatam in a rented store-front. Thus, he attracted many youngsters, who gradually became his disciples. Srila Prabhupada trained his disciples in the tradition of Deity Worship, to help them advance spiritually.
In 1969, three couples - Mukunda and Janaki, Gurudas and Yamuna, and Shyamasundara and Malati - were inspired by Srila Prabhupada to start the first ISKCON center in London.
At the time, London was the music capital of the world, with bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Cream, and Moody Blues conquering global pop culture.
The devotees knew what they had to do to make an impact, and they approached it fearlessly. Befriending The Beatles, they went on to release the George Harrison-produced “Hare Krishna Mantra” single on The Beatles Apple record label. On its first day, the record sold 70,000 copies, and the Hare Krishna Mantra instantly became a household name. Within weeks, the devotees had appeared on Top of the Pops, singing “their song.” The Hare Krishna Movement in the UK had taken off!
Srila Prabhupada is the spiritual ambassador who visited our planet to give us the message of Godhead and invite us to come back home - back to Godhead.
