The Hare Krishna Movement: Fifty Years of Service & Joy

The Hare Krishna Movement, or ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness), was founded in 1966 by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada. This spiritual movement promotes the practice of chanting the Holy Names of the Lord (Hare Krishna mantra) as the most effective means of attaining spiritual awakening and enlightenment. The movement has spread worldwide, offering people a path to divine love, peace, and a deeper understanding of life.
