ISKCON Boston

Introduction

The Boston branch of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, now known as New Gundica, was one of the most prominent temples in the early years of the Hare Krishna movement. Srila Prabhupada set a number of milestones here, distinguishing the Boston yatra’s position as a significant center for the development of Lord Caitanya’s Sankirtana Movement in the West.It was on Boston’s Commonwealth Pier that Srila Prabhupada first set his lotus feet on Western soil in 1965, and it was there that he composed his prayer Markine Bhagavat Dharma, entreating Lord Krishna for the deliverance of the western countries. It was in Boston that Srila Prabhupada performed the first Brahmanical initiations not just in ISKCON, but for western men and women. It was also in Boston that Prabhupada established his original printing press for distributing transcendental literature, and instituted the worship of one of very few Deity forms of Sri Sri Radha Krishna that he personally installed.

Today ISKCON Boston is committed to providing inspiration and spiritual strength to its residents and congregational members. The devotees of New Gundica Dhama seek to fulfill their small part of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s mission to spread Krishna consciousness throughout the greater Boston area.
