"Of all the creations I am the beginning and the end, and also the middle. I am the Atma abiding in the heart of all beings. Of all sciences I am the spiritual science of the self, and among logicians I am the conclusive truth. O conqueror of wealth, there is no truth superior to Me. I am the death, which overcomes all, and the source of all beings still to be unborn. Everything rests upon Me, as pearls are strung on a thread, and that I support the entire cosmos with only fragrant of my being!"
Shri Krishna is eighth and highest incarnation of Shri Maha Vishnu. He is considered to be the Lord's Purna Avatar, having all the sixteen Kalas or rays of the Lord. Even saying and remembering His name brings joy because Shri Krishna himself was a manifestation of joy at all levels and in all walks of life. No other God in the Hindu pantheon, or for that matter in any other religion, is associated with so many romantic tales and so fully radiating with all the divine attributes as Shri Krishna. In the great Mahabharata, Krishna spoke memorable words on the essence of Bhakti Yoga or the yoga of pure spiritual devotion. The Deity is the beloved and the devotee is the lover, When the Bhakt is blessed by divine grace he feels undivided union and non-dual consciousness. Bhakti Yoga is regarded as the most direct method to merge in cosmic consciousness.
The purpose of the Krishna Avatara is not only to destroy Adharma, but also to reveal to the world the magnificence of God. In His well-adjusted, symmetrical conduct of life is portrayed the majestic perfection of God. Shri Krishna’s life is the Bhagavad Gita in action. In Him are found the supreme knowledge and power blending to form the God Man of all times. In Him the highest Vidya and Vinaya (knowledge and humility) co-exist as inseparable virtues of the Great Hero of the world. Lord Krishna is a Karma Yogi, Bhakta, Raja Yogi and Jnana Yogi. He preached Karma, Upasana Yoga and Jnana. Lord Krishna drove the chariot in the battle-field and danced with the Gopis in the shady retreats of Vrindavan and taught Yoga and Jnana to Uddhava and Arjuna. The four Yogas are blended in His Gita. Lord Krishna is great in knowledge, great in emotion, great in action, altogether. The scriptures have not recorded any life more full, more intense, more sublime, more grand than His! ๐ฟ๐๐ฟ Hari Om Tat Sat ~ Jai Shri Krishna! ๐๐ป๐๐ป
