When ISKCON members speak of “Srila Prabhupada” they refer to His divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, founder of ISKCON. The reputable title “Prabhupada” is rightly used for those great spiritual masters who have made an exceptional contribution of Vaishnava literature or preaching to the whole world. Srila Prabhupada appeared in this world in 1896 in Calcutta, India. He met his spiritual master, Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Thakura, in 1922 at what time Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Thakura requested him to preach and spread the message of Caitanya Mahaprabhu all over the English-speaking world. In years that followed, Srila Prabhupada wrote the commentary on Bhagavad-Gita, (ancient Sanskrit text) offered valuable help in the mission of his spiritual master, and in year 1944 single-handedly started the twice-weekly magazine called Back to Godhead. Highly honoring his knowledge and commitment, Gaudiya Vaishanva society, gave him in 1947 the honorific title Bhaktivedanta. At the age of 54, in year 1954, he redraws himself from the marriage life with intention to dedicate himself more to studying and writing. After publishing the first three volumes of Srimad Bhagavatam, Srila Prabhupada, in year 1965, went to USA to fulfill the mission and desire of his spiritual master. Subsequently, he wrote more then sixty authorized translations, commentaries and concise studies of Indian philosophical and religious works. Greatly respected in academic circles because of their comprehension, deepness and clarity, his books are used as standard textbooks in many Universities. In only twelve years, despite his old age, Srila Prabhupada traveled the globe fourteen times while simultaneously lecturing on all of the six populated continents. Regardless of such an intense program, Srila Prabhupada continued his fruitful writing opus. His works represent true treasure house of Vedic philosophy, religion, literature and culture.
