Krishna Janam Utsav is celebrated with great pomp in India. It is said about Krishna that he was perfect in 16 arts, completely non-violent and Maryada Purushottam. Shri Krishna Leela praises his childhood more, such as stealing butter and eating it, breaking the pots of the Gopis, rocking them in the cradle, teasing Yashoda Mata, snatching the clothes of the Gopas and Gopis, etc. Krishna devotees, overwhelmed with emotions in the path of devotion, keep enjoying the inner experience of the wonderful form and beauty of this child in the form of a vision.
In fact, devotees immersed in Krishna devotion are unaware of this spiritual secret that who is Krishna himself? Is Krishna a real name-form or a qualitative word? Krishna means the one who attracts and attracts the Gopas and Gopis with a dark appearance but captivating image. Shri Krishna is actually the formless Supreme Father Shiva. For Krishna,
it is shown that he was born in the prison of Kansa. From a spiritual point of view, God himself incarnates in this world of sensual desires, i.e. prison.
The characters of Shri Krishna shown in Bhagwat are actually memorials of the divine leelas being enacted by the Supreme Father Shiva in the current Confluence Age, such as Krishna snatching away the clothes of the Gopikas. In reality, it is only the Supreme Father Shiv Shankar who snatches away the consciousness of the mortal body and purifies the soul by giving the true introduction of the soul and making people experience the soul through his thoughts, words and actions.
Murlidhar Gopal is also accused of making the Gopikas run away by playing the Murli. Actually, this is about the Gyan Murli. At the end of the Kalpa, the formless Supreme Father Supreme Soul Shiva, sitting in an ordinary human body (Murlidhar God), narrates such a sweet and unique Gyan Murli that the souls in the form of Gops and Gopikas from all over the world get attracted and are drawn towards that Gyan Murlidhar Supreme Father Shiva-Shankar, on the basis of which the name Krishna (image of attraction) becomes meaningful in the world, and it is the specialty of the present corporeal character of God that he makes every soul in the form of Gop-Gopi experience selfless true love, in memory of which, Kanhaiya is shown dancing with each Gopi in the scene of Raasleela. The description of Draupadi’s disrobing in Dwapar Yug and Madhav’s protection of her heart is just a mythological story, but at the end of Kaliyug when the lustful behaviour becomes excessive, all men become Duryodhan and Dushasan due to body pride and in almost every house, helpless women are being disrobed against their will. Then on hearing the cry of these Draupadis in the form of souls, the Supreme Father, the Supreme Soul himself comes in a secret form and saves their honour.
The Supreme Soul comes and teaches that the lustful behaviour which a man considers happiness is actually the cause of sorrow from beginning to middle and end. The happiness which is derived from the mortal body and its relatives and from mortal objects is ephemeral. By considering oneself as a soul, one has to conquer these organs of action and the happiness which comes from truly loving the Supreme Soul is imperishable.
There are many other spiritual mysteries too. The divine acts of the Lord have been depicted in the scriptures in the form of the image of Krishna.
