WHY LORD KRISHNA ?

Today i am going to write about the reason why i get fascinated by Lord Krishna. Though it is quite difficult to express, but i will try.

The very first reason for this is THE GITA. There the MASTER tells us that we should forget everything and only remember HIM. HE tells us to take Refuge in HIM and HE will save us. HE also tells us in THE GITA that HE loves HIS Devotees . If a devotee prays to HIM with utmost sincerity and always keeps HIM in his mind, LORD KRISHNA also loves that bhakta and he becomes very dear to HIM. This assurance is something very Striking! I just felt that everyone is unique to HIM. This is the first reason which prompted me to know more about LORD KRISHNA.

The next reason is also related to THE GITA . As i was reading it, I came to know that HE governs everything of this universe, HE has power over everything yet HE doesn't want to possess anything. HE creates everything and then sets them free. In THE GITA also, HE inspires us to Let Go Everything and concentrate on our Free Inner Spirit (i.e.-Attachment with GOD ) . This very philosophy of renunciation appealed to me . How many of us can give up everything? Perhaps no one! This- having a power over everything and then letting them go - is indeed a remarkable thought .

These are the main reasons which made LORD KRISHNA special to me.
Later I will discuss other facets also which makes HIM THE ULTIMATE ONE to me.

With best wishes,

Dpriya

Bliss Generated by Shri Krishna: Some songs from Ramanand Sagar's 'Shri Krishna'

Just thought to post some songs from Ramanand Sagar's Shri Krishna serial, where we can FEEL the Bliss genrated by the Lord to all the persons around Him. Each of these songs are Sooo Special to me due to emotions (Joy) they produce! "Baal Roop dekhke jo Kanhaai" , posted by Lola (IF) Video:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvNLdKxH6BY&feature=related Baal roop dekhen jo Kanhaai, seeing the child form of Lord Krishna, Munivar ne sudh budh bisaraai; the sage lost track of his surroundings Harash apaar hriday na samaaye, his heart couldn't contain the immesne rush of joy N ayanan me aansoo bhar aaye. it filled his eyes with tears Antar gati jo bhayee lakhi swaami , his state of mind upon seeing his master So jaanat bas antaryaami; could only be known by the Master Himself Kaise abhinandan karen?

'Hari Haraye Namah Krishna'

This is a very famous and old stotra on Shri Krishna. I heard it for the first time in the film 'Aagantuk'. Utpal Dutt was reciting this stotra, the original voice was of Satyajit Ray's, I think. But there the stotra remained incomplete as the next events of the film started taking place. From then, I always wanted to listen the full stotra along with reading it. Very recently I came to the audio track of the same and got the lyrics on internet. It has 10 stanzas, written by Narottam Das. Above the post I have given the vidoe of the song from YouTube, and here is the lyrics, and the English translation (which I got from the internet, credit goes to the original writer who posted the lyrics). (1) Hari haraye namah krishna yadavaya namah Yadavaya madhavaya kesavaya namah (2) Gopala govinda rama sri-madhusudana Giridhari gopinatha madana-mohana (3) Sri-caitanya-nityananda sri-advaita-sita Hari guru vaishnava bhagavata gita (4) Sri-rupa sanatana bhatta-...
