Srila Sridhar Swami Seva Ashram - Govardhan
We start from: Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu
He descended into this world in order to reveal the glory of Her divine love and to enjoy the taste of this love himself
Our founder - Sri Rupa Goswami
There were many great devotees among the followers of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. As an acharya (teacher), He preached Krishna consciousness, which was predicted, and now is spread all over the world. The living beings in the human form of life were blessed by His divine preaching. Mahaprabhu wanted to leave a successor, someone who could support the development of the mission after He left. He assigned this responsibility to Srila Rupa Goswami.
A river can have many tributaries, such as the Ganges. But the Ganges itself flows in the same channel. Similarly, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s line of thought runs through Srila Rupa Goswami.

Our Teachers - Our Guardians of Devotion
The disciplic succession [also known as a Sampradaya or Guru Parampara] is a succession of Spiritual Masters through which a particular conception of spiritual knowledge is transmitted from Guru to disciple. The Revealed Truth comes down to us through this succession of instructing Spiritual Masters. The Krishna conscious disciplic succession is the link which connects us to the Supreme Lord Krishna, who likes to distribute Himself through His agent, or the Spiritual Master.
