Join devotees, leaders, patrons, and well-wishers from across North America for an unforgettable evening commemorating 60 years of ISKCON’s divine mission. This landmark celebration honors the timeless teachings of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada while looking ahead to the future of Krishna consciousness for generations to come.
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977) is widely regarded as the foremost Vedic scholar, translator, and teacher of the modern era. He is especially respected as the world’s most prominent contemporary authority on bhakti-yoga, devotional service to the Supreme Person, Sri Krishna, as taught by the ancient Vedic writings of India. He is also the Founder-Acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.
Srila Prabhupada, as he is known to his followers, translated and commented over eighty volumes of the Vedas’ most important sacred bhakti texts, including the Bhagavad-gita—a concise handbook for understanding the purpose and goal of human life—and the multi-volume Srimad-Bhagavatam—an epic biography of Krishna, Krishna’s avatars, and His many devotees throughout the history of the universe.
For six decades, ISKCON has carried the teachings of Lord Krishna across continents, cultures, and generations.
This 60th anniversary is more than a celebration — it is a tribute to service, sacrifice, and spiritual transformation, and a commitment to carrying Srila Prabhupada’s mission forward with renewed vision.
Humbly dedicated to Srila Prabhupada, whose compassion, courage, and faith ignited a global spiritual movement.
Bringing together diverse devotional performing arts from local, national, and international artists—featuring Gauravani & Friends, Sara Kamala, Barsana Priya, Jai Sita, Madhava Pura, Mani Manjari, Srikar, and Visnumaya—alongside guest speakers, forming a unified expression of devotion in motion through performance, sound, and story.
At its heart, Origins is about continuity: what began 60 years ago is still alive—expanding, transforming, and unfolding today.
