The Worldwide Krishna Movement: Half a Century of Growth, Impact, and Challenge: Explorations in Indic Traditions: Theological, Ethical, and Philosophical

Editat de Graham M. Schweig
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2027
This open access book explores the historical, sociological, and theological dimensions of the Krishna Movement since its inception in the 1960's through its blossoming in the 2000's.

Experts in the field discuss the surprising growth, the amazing impact, and the various past and current challenges that emerge from a centuries-old practice and traditional theology of Krishna Bhakti that flowered from Chaitanya Vaishnavism from within the Hindu complex of traditions. It is for the first time in history of religion that Vaishnava Hinduism was established outside of India by Prabhupada, taking the form of ISKCON, ushering in the worldwide spread of the Krishna movement for over half a century.
