Our vision and lineage

Fulfilling Srila
Prabhupada’s dream.

Isavasya School

An e-school affiliated by the ISKCON Ministry of Education.

Isavasya School carries authentic scriptural learning into a structured, accessible online format for students worldwide.

Visionary

His Divine Grace

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda

Founder-Ācārya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON)

Isavasya School draws its vision from the educational and spiritual mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda.

Śrīla Prabhupāda envisioned an education that went beyond accumulating academic knowledge. For him, the true purpose of education was to awaken one’s understanding of the self, one’s relationship with the Supreme Lord, and one’s responsibility to live a life of wisdom, character and devotion. He placed systematic study of śāstra and practical spiritual training at the heart of education.

His vision was not merely theoretical. He established schools and gurukulas where children could receive spiritual training alongside their education, emphasising spiritual knowledge from an early age and an environment shaped by the principles of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Remarkably, the name Isavasya has a direct connection with Śrīla Prabhupāda’s educational work. In a letter dated 10 January 1972, while discussing children’s education in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he specifically referred to “ISAVASYA SCHOOL” and gave instructions concerning its education, discipline and spiritual practices.

Through the study of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā and other Vaiṣṇava scriptures, along with practical devotional training, the school seeks to develop knowledge, faith, character, understanding and the ability to share this wisdom with others.

Education should help us understand who we are, understand our relationship with Kṛṣṇa, and learn how to live accordingly.

In gratitude to my spiritual master

His Holiness Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaja

I offer my humble obeisances and heartfelt gratitude to my spiritual master, a devoted disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda.

Throughout his life, Maharaja rendered tireless service to Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission and dedicated himself to spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness across the world. His unwavering commitment to Śrīla Prabhupāda’s teachings, deep devotion to the śāstras and spirit of service continue to inspire me.

The journey of Isavasya School is deeply connected to his mercy and blessings. As we make Vedic teachings accessible through systematic study and devotional practice, we pray that our efforts remain faithful to Śrīla Prabhupāda’s vision and worthy of the legacy Maharaja served.

Though he has departed from our material vision, his teachings, service and inspiration remain with us. I remain eternally grateful for the shelter of my spiritual master and pray to continue serving Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission with sincerity and devotion.

His Holiness Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaja

To bring the members of the Society together with each other and nearer to Kṛṣṇa, and to develop the understanding that every soul is part and parcel of Godhead.

To teach and encourage the saṅkīrtana movement, the congregational chanting of the holy name of God, as revealed in the teachings of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

To erect for the members and society at large a holy place of transcendental pastimes dedicated to the Personality of Kṛṣṇa.

To bring the members closer together for the purpose of teaching a simpler and more natural way of life.
