This year commemorates the 50th anniversary of ISKCON. It was established by our beloved Founder and Acharya His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in New York. He travelled to America, on the order of his spiritual master and after one year of various hardships struggling alone, he could establish this institution in the year 1966. We are greatly indebted for the selfless work of Srila Prabhupada. The Kannada biographical work titled ‘Mahasadhaka’ on the sublime life of Srila Prabhupada, was released last year. This year we have organised few events around this book. We have conducted a Seminar and Kavya Goshthi on ‘Mahasadhaka’ at Rajangana, Krishna Matha, Udupi on July 3, 2016, under the holy presence of His Holiness Sri Sri Vishwesha Tirtha Swamiji of Paryaya Sri Pejavara Adhokshaja Matha. His Holiness remarked “It is due to Srila Prabhupada that the bhakti siddhanta advocated by Sri Madhavacharya reached an international level. The word Mahasadhaka clearly applies to Srila Prabhupada.” He further said “Srila Prabhupada holds the credit for spreading the philosophy of devotion to Sri Krishna along with a revolution in moral living all over the world.” Drawing a comparison between the Sri Krishna Matha and ISKCON to two branches of the same tree, he expressed his wishes for their unceasing growth. In this seminar many prominent scholars and academics were present and extensively discussed about the life of Srila Prabhupada. Similarly we had conducted another event in Dharwad. Srila Prabhupada is a true ambassador of Indian culture, he led an exemplary life exactly as per the revealed scriptures. Thousands of Western youth were transformed by his teachings and actions. They were inspired to embrace Vedic culture. His deep compassion for all humanity, irrespective of nation, colour or religion, empowered him to reach out to people across the globe. In a just a few years, Srila Prabhupada established 108 centers of Sanathana Dharma all over the world. As a part of celebrating our rich culture and philosophical heritage, this year we hosted the Upanishad Sandesha, an event organised by Bharati Vidya Bhavan. The famed Kalakshetra Foundation conducted a six part dance drama on Ramayana in ISKCON Bangalore. This covered all important incidents of Shri Rama covered in Valmiki’s Ramayana viz. Sita Swayamvaram, Sri Ramam Vanagamanam, Paduka Pattabhishekam, Sabari Moksham, Choodamani Pradanam and Maha Pattabhishekam. This year also has another significant milestone in the history of Madhva Gaudiya Sampradaya. For the first time in the history, ISKCON Bangalore in association with Sri Krishna Matha, Udupi celebrated, Sri Chaitanya Jayanti Sambramotsava, to commemorate the appearance of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. The event was organized at the invitation of His Holiness Sri Sri Vishvesha Tirtha Swamiji of Paryaya Sri Adhokshaja Matha. In this event many commonalities between Chaitanya Sampradaya and Madhva Sampradaya were examined. Sri Vyasankare Prabhanjanacharya said “If the importance of worshipping Krishna was taught by Sri Madhvacharya, the significance of sankirtana was heralded the world over by Sri Chaitanya.” His Holiness Sri Sri Vishvesha Tirtha Swamiji said “Udupi is Lord Chaitanya’s karma bhumi, for it is also from here that He preached the message of bhakti. Therefore, that Chaitanya Jayanti is being celebrated here gives us great pleasure. Madhvacharya’s philosophy and Lord Chaitanya’s philosophy are not different. They are the same. ISKCON’s preaching Bhakti all over the world is a great achievement. Therefore we are very proud of ISKCON.” I am happy to inform you that the construction work on the much - awaited Krishna Lila Theme Park and the Rajadiraja Govinda temple at the site of the Society's headquarters on the 28 acres of land in Bangalore south at Vasantapura on Kanakapura Road, is going on in full swing. In March 2016, we had Ananta Sesha sthapana in the Rajadiraja Govinda temple. With the blessings of Lord Krishna we should be able to complete the project in the next three years. On completion, it will be a facility of 1.5 million square feet of built-up area, dedicated to preserving and distributing the teachings of Lord Krishna and the culture of Sanatana Dharma. It is expected to become an iconic project of religious tourism. I invoke the blessings of Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha Krishnachandra upon all the stakeholders of ISKCON Bangalore who always support our humble efforts to take spirituality to all. May Lord Krishna bless us all. Madhu Pandit Dasa President 04 SRILA PRABHUPADA His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON, who is popularly known as Srila Prabhupada, stands out distinctly among great personalities for connecting souls world wide to the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krishna in bhakti. In 1932, Srila Prabhupada became a formally initiated disciple of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura of the Gaudiya Vaishnava sampradaya. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura instructed Srila Prabhupada to preach the message of Lord Krishna to all: “You try to preach whatever you have learned from me to the English speaking people of the world. That will be good for you and for the people to whom you preach. That is my instruction to you.” Taking this instruction as his life and soul, Srila Prabhupada started translation of Vedic literatures like Srimad Bhagavad-gita and Srimad Bhagavatam to English. Although he had no funds or any immediate support for this endeavour, Srila Prabhupada continued to render these translations meticulously. He started the publication of a monthly magazine called Back to Godhead in English in 1944. Despite setbacks in his effort to spread the mission of his spiritual master in India, he went ahead to carry out his work in the West. In 1965, Srila Prabhupada sailed to America in a cargo ship having just forty rupees in hand and a few of his works in print, with the objective to preach to the English-speaking people, the Absolute Truth. What followed is the unfathomable growth of Vaishnavism and Lord Krishna worship in the West. Srila Prabhupada, the 32nd bonafide spiritual master in the line of Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya Vaishnavism, translated and wrote purports to 8,172 verses of Srimad Bhagavatam, 700 verses of Bhagavad-gita and 11,555 verses of Chaitanya-charitamrita. He started a monthly magazine Back to Godhead which crossed at one point a distribution of more than one million copies a month. This magazine is now translated and printed in over thirty languages and distributed in different parts of the world. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust was established in 1972 to publish the works of His Divine Grace and soon became the world’s largest publisher of books in the field of Indian religion and philosophy. He published a total of 160 books. In the last few years of his presence in this material world, he lived in Vrindavana and engaged in deep devotional contemplation and in 1977 he left his material body but he still exists in his books and instructions, guiding his disciples and taking them back to Godhead. In short, Srila Prabhupada built a house in which the whole world can live together and develop inquisitiveness towards the real purpose of life. By his mercy, this blinded, fast-paced material world got vision and direction. This movement has given an opportunity to everyone to take up the chanting of the holy names of Lord Krishna, which is the recommended process for spiritual liberation in this age. Lord Chaitanya said, “All over the world, in every town and village, this Harinama sankirtana will spread.” And that is being achieved by Srila Prabhupada’s mission. Srila Prabhupada is truly a great ambassador of India’s heritage and has fulfilled the prophecy of Lord Chaitanya. In all of Srila Prabhupada’s writings and talks, the outpouring of a pure devotee for the love of his Lord Krishna is evident. It is this pure love for God expressed by him that has touched thousands of souls and inspired them to look beyond mere material existence, to a life of higher consciousness. 05 MESSAGE Recently, we had an opportunity to visit ISKCON temple of Bengaluru, and we express our pleasure regarding the creative initiatives of the institution. We are proud to inform that Srila Bhakti Vedanta Prabhupada is a close follower of Madhva tradition and Tattvavada. Following objectives of ISKCON made an impression on us: 1. Increase Krishna Consciousness among desired section of society. 2. Chanting the "Hare Rama Hare Krishna" Nama is a great Sadhana (way) to remove our sins committed in present life and also our previous births.

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • The Management of Cow Shelters (Gaushalas) in India, Including the Attitudes of Shelter Managers to Cow Welfare
    animals Article The Management of Cow Shelters (Gaushalas) in India, Including the Attitudes of Shelter Managers to Cow Welfare Arvind Sharma 1,* , Catherine Schuetze 2 and Clive J.C. Phillips 1 1 Centre for Animal Welfare and Ethics, School of Veterinary Science, The University of Queensland, Gatton Campus 4343, Australia; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, The University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-472-622-438 Received: 19 November 2019; Accepted: 23 January 2020; Published: 28 January 2020 Simple Summary: Sheltering of old, unproductive and abandoned cows in traditional cow shelters (gaushalas) is an ancient practice in India. Cows are venerated as mother goddesses by the Hindu majority population of the country and their slaughter is illegal in most states. Shelters are funded by the public, businesses, including corporate philanthropy, charitable societies, temple trusts and government. The manager of the shelter provides an interface between visitors, workers and cattle and is best able to understand the challenges of running shelters. The objective of this study was to collect and analyze information about the routine operations of the shelters and elicit managers’ attitudes towards cows and cow welfare. We visited 54 shelters, which admitted cattle all year, vaccinated them against endemic diseases and dewormed them. Limited biosecurity measures and erratic waste disposal raise concerns about public health. All the managers felt that the welfare of cows in their respective shelters was important and should be improved, but they were less certain that their knowledge of animal welfare was adequate.
