The Pitambara God Krishna - Janamashtmi Special

On the auspicious day of Krishna's birthday - Janamashtmi, what else could be my topic for new post. The blue skinned, peacock crowned god , Krishna is the most lavish and loved god in the Indian Subcontinent. His gloomy charisma and strong personality makes him stand out of all other devi-devtas in Indian mythology. Son, Lover, Husband, Warrior, Teacher, Friend, Instructor... Krishna was a perfect and an ideal man. According to puranas Krishna is the most ideal man ever lived in this world.

Happy Janamashtmi 

Krishna's Birth 

Krishna's birth story is a very dramatic one. He comes in midnight hour, in a thundering night and is born behind the bars. His blood mother Devaki is in imprisonment by her brother Kansa who is afraid of her son who will actually become the reason to his death. With god's fortune Krishna's father is able to send him to Gokul where he spends the rest of his life. There is rejoice in the drops of heavy rain coming directly from the heaven as supreme personality of godhead - Krishna has arrived on earth. River Saraswati and Lord Sheshnag himself helps Krishna's father to send him to Gokul.

Krishna - The prankster

Krishna is the god who is loved the most. Reason behind this love is his mischief nature. His story tells tales about him as a naughty child. He is always shown teasing the ladies of Gokul and stealing prestigious butter from there houses. This innocent and mischief nature of Krishna makes us love him more. 

 

Krishna - The Ideal Lover 

A story that tells about this fact is that once to test Radha (Krishna's love) her friends told her to drink hot boiling milk by telling her that krishna has told to do so. Radha without giving a single thought drank whole milk. When the friends noticed Radha she was all fine, but the other krishna had his tongue burnt. This proved that Radha and Krishna was one soul and was deeply in love. Moreover, Krishna had 16000 wives in all his age, again he was so loving that he was able to satisfy all his women.
