Srila Prabhupada gives all credit to his Guru Maharaja
“…In Los Angeles many fathers and mothers used to come to see me to express their feelings of gratitude for my leading the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement throughout the entire world. Some of them said that it is greatly fortunate for the Americans that I have started the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement in America. But actually the original father of this movement is Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself, since it was started a very long time ago but is coming down to human society by disciplic succession. If I have any credit in this connection, it does not belong to me personally, but it is due to my eternal spiritual master, His Divine Grace Om Viṣṇupāda Paramahaṁsa Parivrājakācārya 108 Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja Prabhupāda..”
Books : Bhagavad-gita As It Is – Macmillan 1972 Edition : Bg: Preface :
Birth in a family of yogīs or transcendentalists-those with great wisdom-is praised herein because the child born in such a family receives spiritual impetus from the very beginning of his life. It is especially the case in the ācārya or gosvāmī families. Such families are very learned and devoted by tradition and training, and thus they become spiritual masters. In India there are many such ācārya families, but they have now degenerated due to insufficient education and training. By the grace of the Lord, there are still families that foster transcendentalists generation after generation. It is certainly very fortunate to take birth in such families. Fortunately, both our spiritual master, Oṁ Viṣṇupāda Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja, and our humble self, had the opportunity to take birth in such families, by the grace of the Lord, and both of us were trained in the devotional service of the Lord from the very beginning of our lives. Later on we met by the order of the transcendental system

Hare Krsna–
Below is a very instructive youtube video with Hrdayananda and Balavanta back in the early 1970’s on national TV where they were debating with one of the main cult deprogramers (Ted Patrick) of the time. There were many devotees kidnapped by these fanatic deprogramers. Both Hrdayananda and Balavanta were leaders in the Hare Krsna Movement and as far as anyone could tell, were following all the principles laid out by our spiritual master Srila Prabhupada. These two devotees solidly and with some humor I might add, completely defeated this demoniac man and his accomplice Sandra Sacks.
Now please view this video (below) and then come back to this article. This is a wonderful video of how devotees who are following Srila Prabhupada properly CAN defeat any kinds of demoniac people and get put on national TV while doing so.
So what happened to Hrdayananda das from that time- to the present?
Below, we see a present day picture of him with one of his female “friends”-and he still claims he is a sannyasi, and goes by the name-Sri Acaryadev.
If you want to know more detail than you can look at a few articles,listed below, one by his own personal servant and another by a Godbrother.
One of the main things to learn here , for all of us, is that we may have a glorious present position given to us by the spiritual master and Krsna, but that is not permanent, it can be lost due to offenses to the Spiritual Master, the Holy Names,the devotees, and other living entities in general.
One good thing, if you can call it that, is that everybody should learn from the lessons and fall downs provided by some of the original leaders of the Hare Krsna Movement-and try not to do them ourselves.
Better to follow the genuine spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, who wont fall down into gross or subtle materialism, and who CAN take us back to home back to Godhead !
Hare Krsna

Therefore, in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is said that this is the incarnation of God in this age. And who worships Him? The process is very simple. Just keep a picture of Lord Caitanya with His associates. Lord Caitanya is in the middle, accompanied by His principal associates—Nityānanda, Advaita, Gadādhara, and Śrīvāsa. One simply has to keep this picture. One can keep it anywhere. It is not that one has to come to us to see this picture. Anyone can have this picture in his home, chant this Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, and thus worship Lord Caitanya. That is the simple method. But who will capture this simple method? Those who have good brains. Without much bother, if one simply keeps a picture of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu at home and chants Hare Kṛṣṇa, then one will realize God. Anyone can adopt this simple method. There is no expenditure, there is no tax, nor is there any need to build a very big church or temple. Anyone, anywhere, can sit down on the road or beneath a tree and chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra and worship God. Therefore it is a great opportunity.
