Why Is Lord Krishna So Dear To His Devotees?
Janmashtami is the birth anniversary of one of the most worshipped lords of Hindu religion, Krishna. Though Lord Krishna has been idolized in his different forms, Bal Krishna has won the hearts of millions of people in India and abroad. The mischievous boy Kanha has been loved, lauded and revered so prolifically in Hindu mythology and literature that today the naughty boy has become an apple of everyone’s eyes. Even Parveen Shakeer, Pakistani poetess, could not help express her feelings towards Ghanshyam in one of her songs:
“Ye hawa kaise uda le gai anchal mera, Yoon satane ki to adat mere Ghanshyam ki hai.”
(How dare the breeze carry away my anchal, this is the way my Ghanshyam teases me)
Lord Krishna’s Sublime Message
The moon was exalted in its sign in Rohini Constellation, and other planets were in their best positions. Lord Krishna took its Avtaar as the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu in Dwapar Yug. The purpose of his arrival on earth was to destroy the devilish power and to strengthen the dignity of religion. Lord Krishna was Chandravanshi. And he was born in the Rohini Nakshatra. Pearl too represents Chandra. So, buy Chandra/Moti/Pearl to win the special grace of God.
In Bhagwad Gita, he preached Arjun,
“Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya Glanirva Bhavathi Bharatha,
Abhyuthanam Adharmaysya Tadatmanam Srijami Aham”.
Bhagavad Gita (Chapter IV-7)
(Whenever there is fall of virtues O! Bharatha, and a rise of vices then I manifest myself!)
