[edit] Hindu based Organisations in Iran prior to 1979
Prior to the Iranian Revolution of 1979, some Hindu-based missions such as the International Society for Krishna Consciousness and Transcendental meditation, had locations in Iran. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada traveled to Tehran in March 1975 and August 1976.[citation needed] After 1979, these locations have been abandoned.
