Srila Prabhupada established over 108 ISKCON centers in 10 years, the world over.

Raja-vidya: The King of Knowledge
This knowledge is the king of education, the most secret of all secrets. It is the purest knowledge, and because it gives direct perception of the self by realization, it is the perfection of religion. It is everlasting, and it is joyfully performed.


Elevation to Krishna Consciousness
In India all scriptures and great spiritual teachers, including Shankaracharya, an impersonalist, accept Krishna as the Supreme Lord. In the beginning of his commentary on the Bhagavad-gita, Shankaracharya says that Narayana is transcendental to this manifested and un manifested creation, and in the same commentary he says that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Narayana, is Krishna appearing as the son of Devaki and Vasudeva. Thus in this respect there is littel difference of opinion about Krishna. Those who are authorities, be they personalist or impersonalists, are in agreement that Krishna is the Supreme Lord.

 


Krishna Consciousness: The Matchless Gift
Those who thus see Krishna are not anxious because they know where they are going at death. One who has taken the gift of Krishna consciousness knows that he will not have to return to this material world to take another body but that he will go to Krishna. It is not possible to go Krishna unless one attains a body like Krishna's, a sac-cid-ananda-vigraha body, a body full of eternity, knowledge and bliss. One cannot enter into fire and not perish unless he himself becomes fire, and similarly one cannot enter into the spiritual realm in a body that is not spiritual. In a spiritual body one can dance with Krishna in the rasa dance like the gopis and the cowherd boys. This is not an ordinary dance, but the dance of eternity, in the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Only those who have become purified in their love for Krishna can participate in it. One therefore should not take this process of Krishna consciousness as something cheap, but as a matchless gift bestowed upon suffering humanity by the Lord Himself. Simply by engaging in this process, all the anxieties and fears of one's life, which in actuality revolve about the fear of death, are allayed.


The Narada-bhakti-sutra (with disciples)
Learn the Secrets of Transcendental Love....

In the Narada-bhakti-sutra it is said that one who is very serious about developing Krishna consciousness has his desire to understand Krishna fulfilled very soon by the grace of the Lord.

There is a particular charm to the Narada-bhakti-sutra in its brevity, universality, and emphasis on total surrender to Lord Krsna. The aphorisms are strong and can be easily remembered and confidently quoted in devotional discussions and preaching.


A Second Chance
The story of a Near-Death Experience
At the final hour.................

The law of karma states that we're all responsible for our actions, and death is the crucial moment when mysterious forces acting according to this law work behind the scenes to determine our destiny.

At a time when reincarnation is quickly gaining acceptance, not only with the growing ranks of people reporting out-of-body and near-death experiences but with the public at large, A Second Chance is indispensable to our daily lives.

This amazing narrative is based on an ancient book of Eastern wisdom called Srimad-Bhagavatam. It shows us how we can employ the techniques of meditation and bhakti-yoga to overcome the obstacles of materialism, meet the challenge of death, and ultimately attain spiritual perfection.

 


The Journey of Self-Discovery
Amid the parched desert of materialism, The Journey of Self-Discovery offers a sure pathway to the oasis of higher, spiritual awareness.


The Laws of Nature
An Infallible Justice -
FOR EVERY ACTION THERE IS AN EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION
Beg, steal or borrow, bribe or cheat, somehow or other get money and enjoy. Or at least survive.
In the crazy rush to get ahead at any cost, do we ever stop to consider that we might-just might-be held responsible for our actions? What if the hellish punishments described in the scriptures are actually true?

In ' The Laws of Nature', Srila Prabhupada explains what is sin, and who gets punished for what. The conclusion is unavoidable: most people are headed for a very unpleasant future.

It's no joke. Maybe you should read this book. And find out what to do to clean up your life, Before it's too late.


Renunciation Through Wisdom
The teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu are summarized in the phrase vairagya-vidya-nija-bhakti-yoga, which means "renunciation through the wisdom that comes from practicing devotional service unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krishna." What is this wisdom which produces renunciation? When one experiences the nectar of devotional service and becomes steeped in the knowledge of the Vedic literature, one naturally becomes averse to sense gratification and attains freedom from all material bondage.
