EVERYTHING IS KRISHNA
FACT NO 1:- KRISHNA AS A BROTHER
Shri Krishna’s sister Subhadra was born to Vasudev and Rohini. She was born after Vasudeva was freed from the prison. Balrama wanted her to be married to Duryodhana, who was his favourite disciple. But Rohini and other did not want this.
To overcome this situation, Shri Krishna advised Arjuna to abduct Subhadra. He also asked Subhadra to hold the rains of the chariot, so it was technically not an abduction. Balrama was pacied later on, and the marriage was performed at Indraprastha.
FACT NO 2:- KRISHNA'S SKIN COLOUR
Krishna's good looks are the matter of folklore, but though commonly depicted in paintings and idols as blue, his skin colour was actually dark. Spiritualists believe that his all-inclusive, magnetic aura had blue hues and so he is generally depicted as being blue in colour.
FACT NO 3:- GURU SANDIPANI MUNI'S DEAD SON BACK TO LIFE.
After completing their education under Guru Sandipani Muni, Krishna and Balarama asked their Guru what he wanted as Guru Dakshina ( fee for imparting knowledge). Guru Sandipani Muni asked them to restore his dead son who had disappeared in an ocean near Prabhasa.
Balaram and Krishna travelled to the spot where they learnt that their Guru's son had been trapped by a demon who lived inside a conch named Panchajanya which they subsequently took to Yama (God of Death) and asked him to restore the boy. Thus, Krishna and Balarama succeeded in restoring their Guru's son.
FACT NO 4:- EKLAVYA WAS KRISHNA'S COUSIN
Eklavya, the skilled archer was the son of Devsharavu who was Vasudev's brother (Vasudev was Krishna's father). After Dronacharya makes Eklavya cut off his right thumb, Lord Krishna grants him a boon to be reincarnated so as to seek revenge on him. Eklavya is reincarnated as Dhrishtadyumna who stepped out of the yajna fire, created for the sole purpose of killing Dronacharya. It is also said that Lord Krishna killed Eklavya. His father, Devsharavu was the adopted son of the king of hunters, Nishada Vyatraja Hiranyadhanus. After Eklavya sacrificed his right thumb, his thirst to prove himself as the greatest archer grew and he taught himself to be ambidexterous. He started straying from the path of righteousness.
Nishada Vyatraja Hiranyadhanus were long standing allies of Jarasandha, who was Krishna's enemy and when Krishna was carrying away Rukmini, Eklavya joined forces with Shishupala and Jarasandha to stop him. When Eklavya challenged him, Krishna hurled a rock at Eklavya killing him. According to legend, Eklavya's death was imminent as he would later have been a force to reckon with and would have wreaked havoc in Hastinapur.
FACT NO 5:- KRISHNA HAD 16,108 WIVES
Lord Krishna had 16,108 wives in total, out of which eight were his principal wives known as 'Ashtabharya' namely Rukmini, Satyabhama, Jambavati, Nagnajiti, Kalindi, Mitravinda, Bhadra, Lakshmana who bore him 10 sons each.
He rescued 16,100 women from the clutches of a demon Narakasura who had forcibly kept them in captivity in his palace and freed them. However, they all returned to Lord Krishna as none of their families were ready to accept them back and so he married them all to protect their honour. However, it is said that he never had any relations with them.
FACT NO 6:- KRISHNA HAS 108 NAMES
Lord Krishna is said to have 108 names among which the famous ones are Gopal, Govind, Devakinandan, Mohan, Shyam, Ghanshyam, Hari, Girdhari, Baanke Bihari to name a few.
FACT NO 8:-RADHEKRISHNA
Truly known as the divine couple of selfless love, the love of Krishna and Radha is well narrated by many poets and narrators. In India , women see their husbands as Krishna and men see their wives as beloved Radha.
Radha was the foremost among the milkmaids of Vrindavan , as the incarnation of Lakshmi, the spouse of Lord Vishnu, and Krishna’s obvious favorite. Krishna’s love was truly universal while Radha had some jealousy with his flute, as it was the one always with him
FACT NO 9:-RANCHOD
(IF IT POSSIBLE...THEN I WROTE A WHOLE BLOG ON THIS STORY...😊😊)
There was demon named Kaalyavan, who was summoned by Jarasandha to ght Shri Krishna. He realized that beating him would take some time, so he used a boon on Muchkund to neutralize Kaalyavan. Muchkund was sleeping in a cave and he had a boon that the rst person he sees after waking up, will be turned to ashes. Lord entered the cave and hid behind a rock while Kaalyavan happened to wake up Muchkund, and soon, was left to ashes.
FACT NO 10:-MAYA OF KRISHNA
Before the Mahabharatha war, Duryodhana thought to perform a yagna to wish for triumph in the war. To confirm the date of the yagna, he asked Sahadev to suggest the best date for yagna. Sahadev was an extremely knowledgeable man in astrology and was additionally exceptionally honest in his profession that he couldn’t reject Duryodana however he was his enemy. So he suggested Duryodana to conduct the yagna on New moon day. When Pandavas and Krishna knew about this, they were disturbed because the fact that doing the yagna on new moon day would ensure Duryodana’s triumph. Krishna thought about a plan. He began doing pitru tharpan the day before the real New moon day.
When Surya and Chandra heard that Krishna is doing the tharpan, came to approach him for clarification for doing it that day rather than the next day. To which Krishna clarified that New moon day is that day when the sun and moon meet up, since the sun (Surya deva) and the moon (Chandra deva) had cone together to meet Krishna, that day was the new moon day and not the following day! Consequently Duryodana couldn’t do the yagna as planned new moon day.
