"Sri Krishna was a teacher from the very beginning of his life. Even before he entered into the physical world he acted as a teacher. Before he entered into his mother’s womb, he came to his father who had been imprisoned by the king and said, "I am now going to enter into the physical world. As soon as I am born, you will take me out of this prison-cell and take me to Nanda" (one of his relatives). His father saw Sri Krishna vividly before he came into the world of manifestation, and to everybody’s surprise, all of a sudden all the doors and gates of the prison were wide open, and his father took him to Nanda’s place. Here he started his teaching."
From: Krishna – The Eternal Mystery by Sri Chinmoy
“God is proud of His Divinity in Sri Krishna.
Man is proud of his humanity in Sri Krishna.
Sri Krishna is the beloved Boatman who untiringly plies His Boat of Consciousness
between India’s unparalleled history and Her unrivalled spirituality.
The Gita is Sri Krishna’s Heart, His Vision-in-Fulfilment.
The Gita is humanity’s breath, its journey towards Immortality.
Sri Krishna’s Flute stirs the Universal Consciousness.
Sri Krishna’s Gita enchants the Transcendental Consciousness.
Sri Krishna plays on His Flute. We hear. We do something more.
We barter our body’s dust with His Soul’s Plenitude.
Sri Krishna is the shoreless ocean of Bliss.
But as soon as I sincerely dedicate myself to Him,
He presents me with His own Boat and takes me to the boundless Shore,
the Golden All.”
"Lord Krishna is the matchless hero who held the fate of the emperors in the palm of his hand but himself never desired a throne.
The great hero who was born in a prison and died in solitude in a forest.
He gave the world the Bhagavad- Gita.
He is the architect of Dharma who lives forever in the hearts of the people of India and the whole world."
Krishna the Eternal Mystery by Sri Chinmoy "…while he (Sri Krishna) was just a child he opened his mouth and showed his mother the whole universe. He was teaching his mother that the universe is nowhere else but inside him…"
