Description
Krishna is one of the most widely revered and popular of all Indian divinities. Worshipped as the eighth incarnation of the Hindu god Vishnu and as a supreme god in his own right, Krishna is the focus of numerous bhakti cults. His mythology is sourced from the Mahabharata, Harivamsha, and Puranas. Krishna, born into the Yadava clan, faced threats from the wicked king Kamsa, leading to his upbringing in Gokula. Known for mischievous pranks, miracles, and demon-slaying, Krishna later played a crucial role in the great war between the Kauravas and Pandavas. His stories explore analogies between divine and human love, symbolized by his dalliances with the gopis. In artistic representations, Krishna appears in various forms, such as the divine lover playing the flute.
