ABOUT THE BOOK

When A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada entered the port
of New York City on 17 September 1965, few Americans took noticebut
he was not merely another immigrant. He was on a mission to
introduce ancient teachings of Vedic India to mainstream America.
Before Srila Prabhupada passed away at the age of 81 on 14 November
1977, his mission was successful. He had founded the International
Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), colloquially known as the
'Hare Krishna Movement', and saw it grow into a worldwide
confederation of more than 100 temples, ashrams and cultural centers.
This is the authorized biography of Srila Prabhupada. As the founder of
ISKCON, he 'emerged as a major figure of Western counterculture,
initiating thousands of young Americans'.

Srila Prabhupada is criticized by anti-cult groups but is well-regarded by
religious scholars. He has been described as a charismatic leader who
was successful in acquiring followers in many countries, including the
United States, Europe and India. Srila Prabhupada's story is bound to put
you on a path of self-realization.
