Krishna Dharma

Krishna Dharma (1955-) is a British Hindu scholar and author.

Biography

Born as Kenneth Anderson in 1955 in London, Krishna Dharma began studying Hinduism and Hindu philosophy in 1979, and has risen to a position of respect as a scholar and expert in religion. He was educated and trained by Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

He is an adherent of Vaishnavism, or the monotheistic Hindu school of the worship of Lord Krishna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Dharma personally states that he doesn't see his adoption of Hinduism as a renunciation of Christ and Christian background, but as a continuation of Christian teachings.

In 1986, he founded the Hare Krishna Temple in Manchester, and managed its affairs till 2001.
