History: Kedarnath Datta Bhaktivinoda Thakura (1838-1914 http://bit.ly/2fSaLB8) was an influential thinker and spiritual reformer of the Bengali Renaissance period who cultivated a more open form of Gaudiya Vaishnavism (one of the major traditions in Hinduism). In 1880, he was the first to send writings on Caitanya's theology to the Western world when he sent his works to Ralph Waldo Emerson in the U.S. and to Reinhold Rost in Europe. His son Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura (1874-1937) took a vow of pious renunciation (sannyasa) and started Gaudiya Matha monastic organization in 1920. In 1932, Mahatma Gandhi challenged India's leading orthodox Hindu organisations on the practice of untouchability. In reply, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati disregarded caste/social background as a criteria for religious eligibility and argued that Vishnu temples should be open to anyone. Gaudiya Vaishnavism did not spread globally until one of his disciples, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896–1977) http://bit.ly/2gureiz, decided at age 69 to bring Gaudiya Vaishnavism to the United States. In 1966, he founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) in NYC. A temple was then started in SF, then some devotees started one in London where they met George Harrison. The movement then became more popular throughout India after Prabhupada returned there in 1971.  In 1996, the Government of India issued a commemorative stamp to honor Prabhupada. In 1998, India's then-prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee stated, "If the Bhagavad Gita, the holy text of the Hindu traditions, is printed in millions of copies and scores of languages and distributed in all nooks and corners of the world, the credit for this great sacred service goes chiefly to ISKCON. For this accomplishment alone, Indians should be eternally grateful to the devoted spiritual army of Swami Prabhupada, the founder of the Hare Krishna movement, and to his followers ... The arrival of Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in the United States in 1965 and the particular popularity his movement gained in a very short span of 12 years must be regarded as one of the greatest spiritual events of the century."
