Surasrestha is interviewed by Sunday Guardian Writer Andrew Dopson.
DOPSON. When did the society start?
SURASRESTHA DASA. The name of the society-that is, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness-was given in 1966, but the teachings have been going on for many thousands of years. We are in a line of direct succession from Lord Krsna, who appeared 5,000 years ago.
Q. Who gave the society its name?
A. His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, a pure devotee of Lord Krsna-in other words, a teacher who shows us how to develop pure love for God because that is the purpose of our human form of life.
