love the bit that says he is everything yet nothing <3
Krishna is beautiful. Krishna is love. Krishna is gentle. Krishna is the little mischievous darling boy of Vrindavan. Krishna is the flute-playing sweetheart of the Gopis. Krishna is the solace of the cows and his cowherder friends. Krishna is a thief- stealing away mākhan and hearts from every home in Vrindavan.
Krishna is all this. Krishna was all this for as long as he stayed in Gokul-Vrindavan. Later on...
Krishna is the Yugpurush of Aryavarta. Krishna, the slayer of Kamsa is the fearsome Chakradhar. Krishna the husband of Lakshmi-swaroopa Rukmini is Yogeshwar. Krishna is the protector of Draupadi and the Pandavas. Krishna is the invincible Charioteer of Arjuna. Krishna is Nārāyan. Krishna is Pārabramh.
He is all this too and again, He is not bound in any of these roles. He is everything and nothing at the same time. Nirākar-Nirguna and Sākar-Saguna. Krishna is what his devotees need him to be. He is Eternal and Endless.
Krishna is the universe and beyond. He is vast and yet in my heart Krishna is just the gentle flute-playing darling of Gopis. Little bundle of Yashoda's joy. Yugpurush and Parambramh and Dwarkadheesh he might be for entite Aryavarta- but for Braj he is the little boy running around, the one who got tied up to the ookhal by Ma Yashoda, the one who ate dirt and bathed in river Yamuna. He is just their little Krishna, their Joy and bliss. Nothing more, nothing less.
I've found an answer for myself!! it doesn't really matter which one as all are referring to the same absolute truth of the supreme - if They (the Supreme) are infinite then by nature they can manifest themselves in various svayam forms (the forms where they are svayam the supreme person) and partial forms (where they are illuminating part of the infinite aspects of Them) - which we may not understand so easily due to the finite nature of our existence. They have infinite potencies and opulences in their descriptions. They have different aspects e.g. the Brahmajyoti (efflugence and radiance of Brahman) and the Person from which this radiates as the absolute Parabrahman - the origin of these rays. both of these are one and the same, and that which we call the source is the absolute Person. so all forms of the Supreme are just as true as the other and can be appreciated in their svayam forms - like Shri Krishna, the all attractive one. Finite part of the Supreme person is the same Paramatma in our finite hearts that leads us to love and goodness and welfare. so it's all good! thank you Narayan for the answer <3
having a bit of a philosophical/existential crisis...
I've always been a seeker of truth, a philosopher, sometimes beyond my own good. there comes a time when I don't know what to accept or follow as my truth.
Shri Keshav says in Bhagavad-Gita that he meets anyone where they want to meet him. but how am I meant to know in which form I want to meet him? is it Shri Krishna, Rama, or even those such as Lord Shiva, Jesus, etc. ?
I feel very much attached to Shri Krishna but how am I meant to reconcile the truth of absolutely everything, with the love for a Keshava who dances and enjoys and is merry among his sakhis and sakhas? how do I reconcile these identities. how do I reconcile the innumerable forms He takes for himself to approach all of us and touch our hearts, and choose the one that is for me? or is it simply just the form of the unknowable, infinite, Supreme being. but then how may I love him for his heart-pulling qualities and get personally attached to his form?
sry lol a bit diff to what I usually post...
Good morning. Wake up to happiness. Be a healer, awaken out of depths of despair, overcome the challenges, shine forth with brightness, offer inspiration to others to heal themselves. Happy Thursday. Stay safe. God bless us.
kanha just told me a modern form of leela would be PLAYING MARIO KART TOGETHERRRRR
I’m so emotional about dinosaur stuffed animals,,, there are these creatures, extinct long before any of us were alive, but we found their bones and their eggs and their footprints. And we made drawings and models of what they could’ve looked like. And we made them into stuffed animals so we could hold them. We made them soft so we could love them. I’m sobbing

okay so my parents were involved in planning this massive Ganeshotsav outdoors in our local community park for 6 months, it was this weekend, and it had been raining sm for the past week 😭
I asked our kanhaiya for no rain and everyone who organised it to feel satisfied in the end - and there were a lot of major issues we encountered on the way, but everyone who attended really loved the event (like 5000 ppl came!!) and said such positive things about us,, and it was sunny and cloudy but no rain at all over the weekend 🥰
it was all thanks to our fave omg, he can officially take credit
jai shri krishna 🥰💙🦚✨️
