Who started the Hare Krishna Movement?
In 1965, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada traveled alone from India to establish the timeless tradition of Krishna consciousness in the Western world. He single-handedly began a worldwide confederation of over 100 temples, farm communities, and institutes, with a current congregation of over three million in the West, 50 million worldwide. Srila Prabhupada translated over 50 books on Krishna consciousness, now available in over 45 languages.
