Deprogramming Hare Krishnas -- Kulapriya Press Conference

This video shows a press conference with Kulapriya, a female devotee who was kidnapped by deprogrammers. During the 1970s many Hare Krishna devotees, particularly in the United States were kidnapped from the ISKCON temples by deprogrammers like Ted Patrick and others who were paid by the devotee's parents to get their children to give up Krishna consciousness.

History of Hare Krishna. Krishna consciousness was brought to the Western countries in 1965 by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. These films investigate the histroy in India and also the history in the rest of the world since 1965..

In the 1970s parents of some ISKCON devotees became desperate to get their sons and daughters out of the Hare Krishna movement and Ted Patrick came to there assistance by kidnapping their sons and daughters [for a very large fee of course] and then subjecting the devotees to great trauma and practically torturing them until they would renounce Krishna consciousness and go back to their old meat eating sex mongering lifestyle. Ted Patrick caused a great deal of trouble for many devotees in the United States but ultimately it was upheld in the courts that what he was doing, kidnapping devotees, was illegal and he was forced to stop it.
