Sridhar Swami

Original Author

Srila Sridhara Swami (John Colcleugh) was a pivotal figure in ISKCON—a dynamic preacher, fundraising innovator, and spiritual motivator, deeply involved in both book distribution and the Mayapur temple project. He was beloved for his humor, straightforwardness, and devotional intensity, ultimately departing this world serenely at Mayapur in full consciousness.
