The Hare Krishna Deaf Community India (HKDCI) was founded by Mr Samir Munshi
and they are under ISKCON.
Mr Samir Munshi is a Deaf IT Designer from Bangalore working in IBM.
When he was in class 9, he got involved and became interested to learn about Lord Krishna.
He wanted to share information regarding spirituality and the teachings of God with the Deaf Community.
Samir saw that Deaf Indians were unaware about the meaning of God, Shri Krishna and Hindu tradition.
This is all because of the unavailability of accessible information in ISL.
Due to this, they feel lost in their spiritual lives.
Samir really wanted Deaf individuals to learn.
Shri. Chakravarti das, is a Spiritual Mentor at ISKCON in Mumbai,
he supports the HKDCI and has encouraged them to provide ISL translation of Lord Krishna's teachings.
In January 2019, they took the initiative to spread Krishna Consciousness in ISL
and for that purpose he created a group called HKDCI.
They are very happy to announce
the start of Hare Krishna Deaf Community World Television!
They will broadcast videos about the teachings of Lord Krishna globally
and Deaf individuals will face no issues as the videos will be completely accessible.
This will ensure all Deaf persons understand the meaning of spirituality, positivity, etc.
You can use the power of the internet & social media to watch the videos.
HKDCWTV will share videos in languages such as
ASL, BSL, ISL, etc.
