<imagemap> Image:Vanimedia-title.png|center default Main Page desc none </imagemap>

What is Vanimedia?

His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda's audio & video

Vanimedia is the repository for media files, and works across all the Vani petals. Images, audio and video of Śrīla Prabhupāda is collected here, as well as image files used for all the Vanipedia petals. Audio and video will also be compiled by subject for usage in Vaniquotes.

Current status

We are very enthusiastic about importing audio and video of Srila Prabhupada, and it is one of our priorities at the moment. However, it will take us some time to convert the video properly, and find the best way to stream audio files in Mediawiki. Thanks for your patience!

Please visit About Vanipedia to learn more about the site and its vision.

-== Who is Srila Prabhupāda? ==
-<div class="mainleft">
-=== Authorized and empowered ===
-A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda is a self-realized, pure devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. While physically present among us he shared the essence of Vedic knowledge liberally and without prejudice. His only desire was to fulfill his spiritual master's desire – to introduce the process of Kṛṣṇa consciousness to the world.
-Srila Prabhupāda showed us the importance of living life according to the directions given in scripture. He spoke and wrote profusely so that many may have this guidance in life, and he wished that every person on the planet had the oppotunity to read his books now and in the future.
-Śrīla Prabhupāda translated and commented on over fifty volumes of ancient Vedic scripture before his physical demise on November 14, 1977. His authority to write, and to teach and train students in the science of self-realization was given to him by his guru, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja (1874-1937), who came in the disciplic succession from Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu (1486-1534), Himself an incarnation of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Śrīla Prabhupāda founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, ISKCON.
