When iskcon founded




















Primary Creation How do souls get into the material world? Is there life on other planets? I thought the universe had many gods. What is time? What is karma and how does it work? No matter what I do, I feel peaceful some days and miserable on others. Is there a way to get beyond this? What does "reincarnation" actually mean?

Does it have anything to do with karma? The Goal of Life What is it like to love God? What basic qualities should I try to cultivate? I want to do something to improve my spiritual life. The center at Sridhama Mayapur, in West Bengal, is the site for a planned spiritual city, an ambitions project for which construction will extend over many years to come.

There is also a major cultural and educational center in Mumbai. Other centers are planned in a dozen important locations on the Indian subcontinent. Our Vrindavan temple is perhaps our nicest building in the whole movement, and I want that our Vrindavan temple to be the first class temple of India.

Already people are saying that it surpasses all temples of the district in beauty, and I think it surasses all temples in India. They are the best places in the world to come and chant Hare Krishna and prepare for going back to home, back to Godhead.

Vrindavana is the most sacred place within this cosmic universe, and people seeking to achieve spiritual emancipation by entering the kingdom of God may make a home at Vrindavana and become serious students of the six Gosvamis, who were instructed by Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

Srila Prabhupadas most significant contribution, however, is his books. Highly respected by scholars for their authority, depth, and clarity, they are used as textbooks in numerous college courses. His writings have been translated into over fifty languages. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust, established in to publish the works of His Divine Grace, has thus become the worlds largest publisher of books in the field of Indian religion and philosophy. In just twelve years, despite his advanced age, Srila Prabhupada circled the globe fourteen times on lecture tours that took him to six continents.

It draws its legitimacy from its place in a succession of spiritual teachers and disciples parampara. The other three are called the Sri referring to the goddess Laksmi Sampradaya, the Rudra referring to the god Shiva Sampradaya and the Kumara referring to the four Kumaras [celibate sages] Sampradaya.

There are many branches to the Brahma Sampradaya. Books are the basis Is this Hinduism?
