The transcendental teachings of Lord Caitanya Mahiiprabhu offer a
practical and scientific method by which anyone can easily develop love
for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kr�½ma. These teachings, in their
pure form, have been spread all over the world by His Divine Grace A.C.
Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupiida, to whom devotees of Lord Knna and
Lord Caitanya throughout the world offer their most humble and respect­
ful obeisances.
Especially in the West, where the philosophies of impersonalism and
voidism, presented in different ways, are enjoying temporary prominence,
the culture of pure devotional service to the Supreme Lord appears to
have been lost in the oblivion of time. Now Srila Prabhupiida has appeared
in the West to spread the Kr&na consciousness movement introduced by
Lord Caitanya in India
500
years ago and thus renovate the principles of
pure devotional service.
Acting on the request of his spiritual master, Srila Prabhupiida came to
the United States in
1966
to propagate the teachings of Lord Caitanya,
and now, due to his efforts, the Kr&na consciousness movement is being
increasingly recognized in its true light as a potent cultural movement for
the respiritualization of all human socie�½y. Following exactly in the foot­
steps of Lord Caitanya Mahiiprabhu, Srila Prabhupiida has offered to
everyone a method which is simultaneously simple and sublime. By his
personal example and through the more than eighty centers of the Interna­
tional Society for Krishna Consciousness that he has established, Srila
Prabhupada .has taught the chanting of the Hare Kr&na
mantra
as a simple
and practical means for God realization in this age. Furthermore, by pre­
senting a vast treasurehouse of spiritual literature in English translations
and summary studies, Srila Prabhupiida has established the Kr11na conscious­
ness movement of Lord Caitanya on the highest platform of science and
philosophy. Specifically, Srila Prabhupiida has undertaken the mighty pro­
ject of translating into English all twelve cantos of
Srimad-Bhagava tam,
the cream of all the scriptural literature of the world.
By understanding the transcendental teachings of Lord Caitan ya in their
pure form, as given by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Prabhupiida, one can achieve the perfection of human life.
