About the Book

Srila Prabhupada: The Founder of the Hare Krishna Movement by Hindol Sengupta tells the inspiring life story of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). When he arrived in New York City on September 17, 1965, he was virtually unknown. Yet, within a short span of time, his spiritual mission would reshape Western counterculture and introduce ancient Vedic teachings to the world.

Through sheer dedication and vision, Srila Prabhupada not only founded ISKCON but also saw it grow into a global movement, with over 100 temples, ashrams, and cultural centers across the world. This book chronicles his remarkable journey, shedding light on his charisma, leadership, and success in acquiring followers from diverse backgrounds, including the United States, Europe, and India.

Sengupta’s narrative paints Srila Prabhupada as a transformative figure, a spiritual leader whose impact goes beyond religious teachings and touches upon the realms of personal growth and self-realization. Through this engaging biography, readers are invited to explore the extraordinary life of a man who changed the spiritual landscape and continues to inspire millions around the globe.
