Is a Gaudiya Vaishnava sannyasi in the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. He is a disciple of His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami, who is a disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON.

Bhakti Prema Swami Maharaj was born on 31st December 1967 and was raised in a traditional gaudiya vaishnava culture. Maharaj came in contact with ISKCON in 1994 and in his very first meeting with his spiritual master he decided to dedicate himself fully to this movement. Thus he joined as a full‐time devotee in 1995 in Mayapur. He received Harinama initiation in 1996, Brahmin initiation in 1998 and subsequently Sannyasa initiation on the auspicious occasion on Gaura Purnima 2015 at the lotus feet of HH Bhakti Charu Swami Maharaj. He served as the Head of the Medical Department in Mayapur temple from 1996 to 2001 and as a Brahmacari counselor from 1997 to 2001.
In the year 2000, he completed Bhakti Sastri Course and subsequently taught the same under MIHE University. In the year 2001, he was asked to serve as the Vice President of ISKCON Kolkata (WB) and served in that capacity till 2004. He was actively involved in temple management as well as youth preaching in Kolkata during these 3 years.

In 2004, HH Bhakti Charu Swami Maharaj started a new temple project in Ujjain (MP) and appointed him as the Temple President. In 2006, GBC gave him the ISKCON Global Excellence Award for his significant contribution to opening a new ISKCON project in Ujjain with marvelous hand-carved marble temple of Sri Sri Radha Madanmohana, Sri Sri Krishna Balarama and Sri Sri Gaura Nitai, a separate Jagannath Temple which serves prasad to about 33,000 students every day, an Ayurveda clinic, Goshala, guest house, Govinda’s restaurant, workshops to make deities and altars and a primary school. He served in that capacity till 2011 and is currently the Co‐President of ISKCON Ujjain.

He has a very active involvement in preaching to youth as well as congregation through various school/college/village preaching programs. He preaches in English, Hindi, and Bengali in India, Bangladesh, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the USA, and many other parts of the world. As a sannyasi he visits many villages encouraging them to practice Krishna Consciousness, regularly contributes to Sankirtan buses to distribute Srila Prabhupada books in various parts of India, conducts preaching programs for college students, and leads various congregational programs for householders.

After becoming aware of one specific desire of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati to have student hostels to guide them in Krishna Consciousness, he established BSC – Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Chattravas (Spiritual student hostels) to preach Krishna Consciousness effectively to the youth. Currently, around 18 such youth preaching centers are effectively functioning in his guidance to propagate Krishna Consciousness in central India.

His uniqueness is in his melodious Vaisnava Bhajans with beautiful purports and his humble loving relationships with everyone who comes in contact. His future preaching plans involve youth preaching programs, developing devotee village community, establishing Vedic education and culture for sustained community growth, and traveling worldwide to propagate Krishna Consciousness.
