Vanipedia is a dynamic encyclopedia of Śrīla Prabhupāda's words (vani). Vanipedia aims to explore and comprehensively compile Śrīla Prabhupāda's teachings from various angles of vision and present them in accessible and easily understandable ways.

There are seven divisions, or petals, in the whole Vanipedia project, each one with its own website (you can see the list of the site titles under "Interaction" to the left). At the moment there are two petals which are populated with content: Vanisource, where you can read the archived collection of Śrīla Prabhupāda's books, lectures, conversations and letters, and Vaniquotes, where we are thematically mapping all of Śrīla Prabhupāda's teachings. At present we are actively expanding and refining the Vaniquotes petal. Visit the Vaniquotes List of Umbrella Categories to get some perspective on how vast this ever-growing repository is becoming. As of today we have created categories and pages and compiled quotes, all drawn exclusively from Śrīla Prabhupāda's teachings. In addition, we are now beginning to create introductory articles in the Vanipedia petal (the site where you are now).

Vanipedia's vision is a collaborative endeavor which will succeed as more people come forward to participate. We have created a very easy compiling process to populate the Vaniquotes petal with thousands of quotes from Śrīla Prabhupāda. Each Vaniquotes page contains one or more quotes from Śrīla Prabhupāda and is organized under a system of categories based either on a theme or on a key word or phrase. As Vaniquotes is filled with more quotes, content for the other petals - in the form of written articles, reference guides, and other educational resources - will naturally develop. Compiling in Vaniquotes is a penetrating way to study Śrīla Prabhupāda's teachings. The Vanipedia project is building an unparalleled resource of Śrīla Prabhupāda's teachings for the benefit of all and will offer a continual worldwide platform for Śrīla Prabhupāda to preach and teach the science of Krsna consciousness.
