Srila Prabhupada, born Abhay Charan De (1896–1977), was a visionary spiritual leader and the founder-acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). He is widely recognized for introducing the ancient Vedic teachings of India to the Western world in a way that was both accessible and practical for the modern age.

And there is no greater way to achieve that than to hear the divine Sri Guru Gita and the profound wisdom imparted by the Satguru himself: Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda.

Much like the Arabian Nights, it has an intricate structure of stories within stories; epic tales of divine incarnations, saints, sages, gods and earthly kings that span vast periods of time.

Essentially, however, religion belongs to the super-sensuous and not to the sense plane. It is beyond all reasoning, and is not on the plane of intellect.

Here we stand, and our eyes look forward sometimes miles ahead. Man has been doing that since he began to think. He is always looking forward, looking ahead. He wants to know where he goes, even after the dissolution of his body. Various theories have been propounded, system after system has been brought forward to suggest explanations. Some have been rejected, while others have been accepted, and thus, it will go on, so long as man is here, so long as man thinks. There is some truth in each of these systems.
