Lord Krishna was born in the Dwapar Yuga. He was the eigth child of Devaki and Vasudeva. Devaki and Vasudeva were imprisoned by Devaki’s brother Kansa, because he was warned by a celestial voice that the eight child of his sister Devaki will kill him. Mythology says that all the Gods approached the cell and suggested Vasudeva to take Lord Krishna to Dwaraka and leave him with Yashoda. In return, bring back the girl born to Yashoda. The night Krishna was born, the world favoured Vasudeva who was carrying his child in the torrential rain that was flooding all over. The river Yamuna shallower itself so that Vasudeva could cross the river. Also the prison doors opened itself, making a way for him to go. After reaching Gokul, he handed over his child to Nandgopa and brought back their daughter Maya. Lord Krishna’s birthdate is celebrated as Janmasthami every year in India.
Lord Krishna’s childhood was full of different tales of how he used to steal butter from everyone’s houses, how he killed all the demons sent by Uncle Kansa to kill him. Lord Krishna was brought up by his foster mother Yashoda with lot of love and care. Krishna was brought up in a cowherd’s family and he used to spend his time playing with the gopis, pranking them, playing the flute, etc. Krishna was very notorious yet he used to put everybody in a trance whenever they used to try complaining his mother Yashoda. Such was his charm.
Krishna’s association with Radha during his childhood is that of a divine couple which is very much respected in our culture. Radha was the incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi.
Nobody could escape Krishna’s divine charm and grace. It is said that on a moonlit night, Krishna multiplied his body into many in order to dance with all the milkmaids who wanted to union with Lord Krishna. This is a portrayal of Divine play called Leela between reality and illusions.
Krishna became the king after killing his Uncle Kansa. Krishna’s most important part was during the battle of Kurukshetra. It was a Dharma Yuddha and Krishna was the charioteer of Arjuna. Krishna was on the side of the Pandavas. Krishna constantly acted as the friend, philosopher and guide to Arjuna in the battlefield. Arjuna was backing down because he had to kill his own brothers and fight against his teachers. At that point Lord Krishna gave him the lesson of Bhakti Yoga which means to detach oneself from the expectation of results. He gave him the lesson in the form of The “BHAGWAT GEETA”, which is a book of 18 chapters with 700 verses. Each and every verse is meaningful and it is related to human life. It is a great and unbeatable book of philosophy which we the Indians have as our precious legacy.
