Description
Krishna is the most endearing and ennobling character in Indian mythology. He is at once the common cowherd, engaging the milkmaids in playful banter and the supreme intellectual engaged in the propagation of the Gita philosophy.
Krishna has special appeal for children because he is as one of them as no other divine being is. Krishna the boy is naughty and mischievous, with irrepressible energy for his innumerable escapades. He is no prig, no puritan. He has divine powers, but is secular even as he is sacred. This powerful human aspect is the secret of Krishna’s universal appeal.
