Krishna enacted so many roles ; the whole time never forgetting that they were just that, roles, and that his true nature was eternal, ever blissful consciousness.

A child, a brother, a charioteer, a warrior, a disciple, a guru, a cowherd, a messenger, the beloved of the gopis. Throughout his life, Krishna enacted so many roles ; the whole time never forgetting that they were just that, roles, and that his true nature was eternal, ever blissful consciousness. In this way, he was able to remain detached and thus perform flawlessly, never allowing the smile to fall from his face. There have been very few who have been able to rejoice both in victory and in defeat. Sri Krishna is one who celebrated both. He took birth with a smile on his face, lived with a smile, and left his body with a smile. The message that he conveyed through his life is that we should make life full of laughter.

Krishna's life was so full, it would be impossible to recount it all here. It is told primarily through Srimad Bhagavatam, Garga Samhita, Vishnu Purana, Brahmavaivarta Purana, Mahabharata, Harivamsa and several other puranas. Each and every action of Sri Krishna is always filled with deep spiritual meaning; we need subtlety of mind to perceive them.! Hari Om Tat Sat ~ Jai Shri krishna!
