Gaudiya Vaishnavism
Vaishnavism means the worship of Vishnu (Krishna).  Gaudiya Vaishnavism is a branch of the Brahma-Madhva sampradaya (lineage) founded by Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu about 500 years ago in Bengal (Gauda), India.  Gaudiya Vaishnavism stresses devotional service to God - Krishna - through His pure devotee.  In 1965, such a pure devotee of God, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, came to the western world to spread the principles of Gaudiya Vaishnavism.
