ABOUT ISKCON The
International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) is a religious
and spiritual institution founded by His Divine Grace A.C.
Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, in July 1966 at New York city. ISKCON
belongs to the Brahma-Gaudiya-Madhva lineage founded by Shri Chaitanya
Mahaprabhu in the 16th century and the core beliefs are based on
ancient Hindu scriptures like the Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagvad Gita.
The main aim of ISKCON is to propagate spiritual knowledge and Krishna
consciousness to the society at large through sankirtan (chanting the
Holy name of Krsna), discourses on the ancient scriptures, distribution
of books by Srila Prabupada, satsang (association with devotees) and
the distribution of the infamous Krsna prasad (food offered to Krsna).
Apart from over 400 centers all over the world, ISKCON also has farm
communities, schools and restaurants– all striving towards providing a
peaceful, spiritual way of life and guiding humankind back to where we
belong, back to Godhead. Some of the ISKCON centers | ||
