Srila Prabhupada’s arrival in America marked the beginning of a transformative journey that would lead to the establishment of ISKCON and the spread of Krishna consciousness worldwide.
His journey aboard the Jaladuta was marked by significant challenges, including sea sickness and two heart-attacks. Despite these difficulties, Srila Prabhupada remained steadfast in his mission, relying on the guidance of Lord Krishna to navigate his way through the challenges.
Upon reaching New York, he was alone, with no visible means of support, and had to rely on his own resources to establish ISKCON. His diary entries from the journey provide a glimpse into his thoughts and experiences during this critical period.
