The
International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) was established
in 1966 by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
(Srila Prabhupada). ISKCON has since developed into a worldwide
confederation of 10,000 temple devotees and 250,000 congregational
devotees.
Better known as the Hare Krishna movement, ISKCON is comprised
of more than 350 centres, 60 rural communities, 50 schools and 60
restaurants worldwide.
The mission of this nonsectarian, monotheistic movement is to promote
the well being of society by teaching the science of Krishna consciousness
according to Bhagavad-gita and other ancient scriptures.

that Srila Prabhupada set out for ISKCON.
