Lord Krishna is one of the most endearing deities of Indian mythology and is considered to be one of the avatars of the Lord Vishnu. Goddess Lakshmi, the consort of Lord Vishnu, was born upon earth as his companion during his many incarnations.
Krishna is, at times, the simple cowherd indulging the milkmaids in playful banter. At other times, he is the supreme intellectual – engaged in the exposition of the Gita philosophy. Krishna’s beguiling childish pranks and his dignified wisdom have, in turn influenced the Hindu consciousness for centuries.
This Amar Chitra Katha special issue brings to you three charming tales of the invincible Lord Krishna. The first tale encapsulates Krishna’s romantic marriage with Rukmini, the beautiful and viruous princess of Vidarbha who gives her heart of Krishna when she hears of his great deeds. Rukmini is said to be the earthly incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi. How he whisks her off under the very noses of his stunned enemies and subsequent battle of the two sides is wonderfully narrated in this story.
The second story in this volume is about Krishna, the child. He particularly appeals to children because unlike and other deity he is, in fact, one among them. Young Krishna is mischievous, naughty and bubbling with enthusiasm. This powerful human element is the secret to Krishna’s universal popularity.
The third title narrates the story of Krishna when he was falsely accused of stealing the syamantaka gem that belonged to Prince Satrajit of Dwarka. To save his honour, Krishna goes into the jungle on a frantic hunt for the gem. A great adventure follows where Krishna duels with a mighty bear for 28 days and wins two new brides.
