Srila Prabhupada circled the globe  14 times spreading the  teachings of Lord Krishna. People from all  backgrounds and walks of life  came forward to accept his message. With  their help, Srila Prabhupada  established temples, farm communities, a  publishing house, and  educational institutions around the world. And,  he began what has now  become the world’s largest vegetarian food relief  program, Hare Krishna  Food for Life. He authored over 70 volumes of  books on the Vaisnava  tradition, which are highly respected by scholars  for their authority,  depth, fidelity to the tradition, and clarity.  His writings have been  translated into 76 languages. His most prominent  works include:  Bhagavad-gita As It Is, Srimad-Bhagavatam, and Sri  Caitanya-caritamrita.
