Srila Prabhupada, the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON
Srila Prabhupada,
the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON
2.1 Definition
To fulfill the previous acarya's desire for a united worldwide preaching organization to expand Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mission, Srila Prabhupada founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as a distinct branch of the Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya-Vaisnava-sampradaya. Therefore he is the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON.
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada is the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON. This means that he is ISKCON's link with the Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya sampradaya, that his writings, oral teachings, and exemplary actions remain the permanent and irreplaceable basis for all subsequent teachings and activities of ISKCON. He is and will remain always the instructing spiritual master of all devotees in ISKCON. (Law Revision committee 9.6.90)
