ABOUT
Seven Purposes of ISKCON
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada incorporated the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in 1966 with seven explicit purposes. They are
- 01. To propagate a consciousness of Krishna (God), as it is revealed in the great scriptures of India, Bhagavad-gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam.
- 02. To propagate a consciousness of Krishna (God), as it is revealed in the great scriptures of India, Bhagavad-gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam.
- 03. To bring the members of the Society together with each other and nearer to Krishna, the prime entity, thus developing the idea within the members, and humanity at large, that each soul is part and parcel of the quality of Godhead (Krishna).
- 04. To teach and encourage the sankirtana movement, congregational chanting of the holy name of God, as revealed in the teachings of Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
- 05. To erect for the members and for society at large a holy place of transcendental pastimes dedicated to the personality of Krishna.
- 06. To bring the members closer together for the purpose of teaching a simpler, more natural way of life.
- 07. With a view towards achieving the aforementioned purposes, to publish and distribute periodicals, magazines, books and other writings.
