FOREWORD
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness
was established in New York in the year 1966. After my
arrival in the United States in September of 1965, I
personally underwent a difficult struggle, and in 1966
I rented a storefront and apartment at 26 Second
Avenue. When ISKCON was incorporated, a boy named
Chuck Barnett joined me, along with a few others, to form
the nucleus for the institution's future development.
At this time I used to chant the Hare Krr;a maha-mantra
underneath a tree in Tompkin's Square Park in New
York. Sriman Barnett and another boy, Bruce, were
the first to begin dancing in front of me, and others
in the audience joi ned them. The New York Times
published a report of this, with our picture and a
headline declaring that I was attracting the younger
generation to the Hare Krr;a movement.
Later both Chuck and Bruce, along with others, became
my initiated disciples, and still later, in 1970, both took
sannyasa, receiving the names Acyutananda Svam1
and Brahmananda SvamT. Now Brahmananda is preach
ing in Africa, and Acyutananda is preaching in India.
When I became sick in 1967, I left the United
States and returned to India. Srlman Acyutananda
could not remain separated from me, and therefore
he joined me in Vrndavana when I was staying there.
Since then, Acyutananda Svam1 has worked very hard
in India. He has preached extensively in Calcutta
and other parts of Bengal, he has learned how to sing

INTRODUCTION
It was my good fortune to be in the service
of Srila Prabhupada at Sri Mayapur, the birthplace
of Lord Caitanya, in setting up the groundwork
of our Society's international center there. That
year (1971), there was a terrible flood, but although
for many days the water was rising, it was diverted
from flooding the society's property solely due
to the embankment created by a road constructed
by Srlla Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, our Parama Guru
Maharaja. I wrote a letter to His Divine Grace
explaining the situation, and I mentioned, "The
water has not entered our property. Srila
Bhaktisiddhanta's road has saved us." Srila
Prabhupada, however, wrote back in answer in a
different tone: "Yes, we are always saved by Srila
Bhaktisiddhanta's road, so go on glorifying the
disciplic succession, and your life will be a great
success." Later on, when I suggested writing down
the songs of Srila Bhaktivinoda Thiikura and
Narottama dasa Thakura in English translations,
His Divine Grace said, "Yes, we must push on this
mission of Bhaktivinoda." So here in this book,
which is the first of a series of translations of the
complete works of the Vaisnava acaryas in the
line of succession coming fter Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu, I have also included a short life
sketch of Thkura Bhak tivinoda. In the following
volumes, the lives of r'Tia Narottama dasa Thakura

appeared in ISKCON's Bengali Back to Godhead
Magazine.)
The year 1887 was the most eventful year in the
history of the Vaiff)ava world, and Bhaktivinoda
Thakura was the prime mover of the events. It was
in this year that he discovered the actual place of Lord
Caitanya's birth, which was given up for lost. Thou
sands of visitors were present at a function held at
the spot. Just after retirement from government
service, Thakura Bhaktivinoda himself, in a spirit of
perfect humility and with a view to giving a firm
standing to the discovery, went from door to door to
raise funds for a temple. In the Amrita Bazar Patrika
newspaper, on the 6th of December, 1894, the follow
ing article appeared: "Babu Kedran'Atha Datta, the
distinguished Deputy Magistrate who has just retired
from the service, is one of the most active members.
Indeed, Babu Kedaranatha Datta has been deputed
by his committee to raise subscriptions in Calcutta and
elsewhere and is determined to go from house to house
if necessary and beg a rupee from each Hindu gentle
man for the noble purpose. If Babu Kedaranatha Datta
sticks to his resolution of going around with a bag in
hand, we hope that no Hindu gentleman whose house
may be honoured by the presence of such a devout
bhakta as Bibu Kedaranitha will send him away
without contributing his mite, however humble it may
be, to the Gaura-Vi,Qupriya Temple fund." Truly,
Thakura Bhaktivinoda honored the houses of many
persons for the fulfillment of the noble object he had

(Eight Prayers Glorifying the Spiritual Master)
who appeared in the latter half of the 17th Century. is a great spiritual master
in the Kn1,1a conscious chain ofgurus and disciples. He says that one should loudly chant the following eight prayers, with care and
attention, during brdhma-muhurta, the auspicious time an hour and a half before sunrise when devotional practices are especially potent.
Anyone who thus chants these eight beautiful prayers glorifying the spiritual master will certainly get a chance to render
direct service to Krf.la, the Lord of Vrndavana, after the demise of his body.

task which H i s followers have continued to carry out
