Lord krishna when was he born

This is evident in paintings of Krishna we see even to this date. God of Romance: A most striking characteristic of Krishna from other incarnations of Vishnu is he is a lover. His love for Radha is never-ending, immortal and very pure and pious. Even to this date, Krishna is always associated with his childhood lover Radha.

Later he married Rukmini but that was only after he left Radha in Vrindavan. It is in Madhuban, Vrindaban, that Krishna and the gopis performed Rasleelas. According to folklore, Krishna still ascends to dance Rasleelas with his beloved gopis on Janmashtami full moon night.

Krishna played his flute so well that all the cows gathered in the meadows to listen to him. Krishna had as many as 16, wives. According to the legend, after the demon Narada was killed, Krishna married all single girls.

Thus, Lord Krishna saved the honour of the girls belonging to the entire village. Rukmini was the mistress of the house. Lord Krishna had 1,61, sons. There is the famous battle Kurukshetra between Pandavas and Kauravas that took place. Also, while was the charioteer of Arjuna, Krishna was the teacher, guide, philosopher. Teachings of Lord Krishna: Krishna was the divine messenger who stressed the importance of love and peace. According to Krishna, the path of dharma [righteousness] and good karma [deeds] leads to Moksha [salvation].

Sleep overtook her misery as she lay in her dungeon. Kamsa, too, felt uneasy as he feared that the prophecy might come true. That night was like none other. Heavy rain and story winds threatened to destroy everything they touched. It broke its embankments and swelled like an ocean. Exactly at midnight, Devaki gave birth to her eighth son. As soon as the child was born, the prison cell was filled with a bright light.

It was as if a thousand suns had descended, at once, into that dark and dingy cell. Vasudeva was awakened by this bright light. He saw that Devaki was in deep slumber and a little baby was lying besides her. This is your new born son. Take him to your Gokul where your friend Nand, the head of the Gopa tribe lives, and leave him in his house.

Nand and Yashoda are unaware of the birth of their daughter. Leave your son in their house and bring their daughter back to this cell. They, along with the entire world, will think that this child is their own son. Saying this the bright light went out. The prison cell was dark once again. Vasudev cuddled the little boy. He kept the child in a basket and started thinking of ways to leave the prison without being noticed by anyone.

As soon as the child was put in the basket, the iron door of his cell opened by itself. Vasudeva stepped out and was surprised to find that all the guards were sleeping, as if under a magic spell. Vasudeva came out of the prison, unnoticed, carrying the basket on his head. He came to the banks of Yamuna and noticed that the river had swelled so much due to the heavy rain, it felt like an ocean.

With no other means in sight, he started crossing the river on foot. He was worried that both he and his child would be swept away by the strong currents of the river. Before leaving his cell he had covered the basket with a piece of cloth to protect the child from rain. It seemed that a mere piece was cloth was no match to the torrential rain which showed no signs of ebbing. Just then, Vasudeva noticed that a huge, multi-headed snake was moving towards them. Though terrified, Vasudeva did not stop.

The snake covered Vasudeva and the child with its hood, effectively protecting them from the rain. Lord Vishnu rests on Adi-Anant-Shesha. Adi means beginning, Anant means never ending and Shesha means remainder. It is believed that Shesha was present before the Universe existed and will still be present when everything else will cease to exist. Adi-Shesha also took a human form along with Krishna. Vasudeva crossed the river comfortably and reached Gokul.

The doors lay open and Vasudeva entered the living chambers. He found Nandraj and his wife, Yashoda, in deep slumber. An infant was lying besides Yashoda, awake, as if waiting for him. Vasudeva placed his little boy besides Yashoda, kissed him goodbye and picked the little girl. These mental habits are turning you into a bitter person! How does your zodiac sign flirt?
