The Empowered Acharya, a short film on the life of HDG Srila Prabhupada
Founder-Acharya of the Worldwide Hare Krishna Movement.
An extraordinary story of an order given, a promise made, and an unprecedented accomplishment!
Unleashing a deep insight into the life of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, this short film presents the transcendental personality of Srila Prabhupada as an Empowered Acharya.
Abhay Charanaravinda Bhaktivedanta Swami (1 September 1896 – 14 November 1977) or Srila Prabhupada, born Abhay Charan De, was an Indian spiritual teacher and the founder-acharya (preceptor) of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) commonly known as the HARE KRISHNA MOVEMENT. He is a bonafide representative and messenger of Lord Sri Krishna & Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
Born in an aristocratic Kayastha family in Kolkata, he was educated at the Scottish Church College there. Before adopting the life of a novice renunciate (vanaprastha) in 1950, he was married with children and owned a small pharmaceutical business. In 1959, he took a vow of renunciation (sannyasa) and started writing commentaries on Vaishnava scriptures. In his later years, as a traveling Vaishnava monk, he became an influential communicator of Gaudiya Vaishnava sampradaya’s theology to India and specifically to the West through his leadership of ISKCON, founded in 1966. As the founder of ISKCON, he “emerged as a major figure of the Western counterculture, initiating thousands of young Americans.“ He was criticized by anti-cult groups but was well regarded by religious scholars, such as J. Stillson Judah, Harvey Cox, Larry Shinn, and Thomas Hopkins, who praised Bhaktivedānta Swāmi’s translations and defended the group against distorted media images and misinterpretations. Religious leaders from other Gaudiya Vaishnava institutions have also given him credit for his achievements.
He has been described as a charismatic leader who was successful in acquiring followers in many countries including the United States, Europe, and India. His mission was to propagate throughout the world Gaudiya Vaishnavism, a school of Vaishnavite Hinduism that had been taught to him by his guru, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati. After his physical departure in 1977, ISKCON, the society he founded based on a form of Krishnaism using the Bhagavata Purana as a central scripture, continued to grow.
His translation of and commentary on the Bhagavad Gita, titled Bhagavad-Gītā As It Is, is considered by many Vedic scholars to be the finest, bonafide translation of Vaishnava literary works.
