 His Grace Sriman Sankarshan Das Adhikari appeared in this world in
St. Louis, Missouri, USA on 7 November 1947, the tenth
day (Dadasi) of the most holy month of Kartik according
to the Vaisnava calendar. He first met his spiritual
master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Prabhupada, in 1971 and was initiated by him on 12
August of the same year. Srila Prabhupada personally
told this new young disciple that he was pleased with
his sincerity and enthusiasm for spreading the Krishna
consciousness movement. Sankarshan Das fully dedicated
his life for serving the order of his spiritual master
to become a guru and deliver the world. For the next
29 years uninterruptedly served his spiritual master’s
movement, the International Society for Krishna
Consciousness (ISKCON), in various capacities.
In the year 2000, in recognition for his full dedication
to Srila Prabhupada’s mission, ISKCON’s Governing Body
Commission (GBC) gave him their blessings to initiate
disciples. Since that time he has been regularly
traveling and lecturing extensively all over the world
for reviving the dormant Krishna consciousness in the
hearts of all living beings. Well known for his Internet
based training program, the Ultimate Self Realization
Course, he has attracted over 11,000 subscribers from
over 100 different countries who receive a daily
inspirational message and personal answers to their
questions regarding how to become perfect in Krishna
consciousness. Those who are interested can join his
