His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977), the founder-acharya* of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), was the foremost proponent and teacher of Krishna consciousness-devotional service to the Supreme Person, Krishna-of the late twentieth century. Srila Prabhupada, as he''s known to his followers, translated and commented on over eighty volumes of the most important sacred bhakti texts. His books include Bhagavad-gita As It Is-the definitive commentary on Krishna''s advice on how to be happy in this life and the next, and the multi-volume Srimad-Bhagavatam-a history of Krishna''s activities.
