Vāsudeva Shree Krishna - The Supr...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
Krishna, the meaning of the word in Sanskrit is all-attractive.
He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, also called as God of gods. In other words, Krishna is the Godhead because He is all-attractive.
From practical experience we can observe that one is attractive due to:
(1) Wealth: Ownership and control over all.
He is Laksmi-pati (the husband of the Goddess of Fortune). All material and spiritual energies belong to Him.
(2) Power: The strength to create, maintain, and dissolve.
Demonstrated through feats like lifting Govardhan Hill or maintaining the orbits of countless planets through His energies.
(3) Fame: Being known and celebrated across time and space.
His pastimes (Lilas) are sung in every corner of the world, and His influence spans across millennia without fading.
(4) Beauty: Physical and spiritual charm that draws the heart.
Described as Kandarpa-koti-kamaniya—His beauty exceeds that of millions of Cupids, attracting even the most stoic minds.
(5) Wisdom: Complete knowledge of the past, present, and future.
Best exemplified by the Bhagavad Gita, a concise yet infinite philosophical treatise that remains the ultimate guide for humanity.
(6) Renunciation: The ability to be detached despite possessing everything.
Though He is the creator of the universe, He remains unaffected and detached, often playing the role of a simple cowherd boy.
One who is in possession of all six of these opulences at the same time and who possesses them to an unlimited degree is understood to be the Supreme Personality of Godhead according to Parasara Muni a great Vedic authority.
Krishna is the principal protagonist with Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita also known as the Song of God, which depicts the conversation between the Royal Prince Arjuna and Krishna during the great battle of Kurukshetra 5000 years ago where Arjuna discovers that Krishna is God and then comprehends his nature and will for him and for mankind. In the present age Krishna is one of the most widely revered and most popular of all Indian divinities.
🙏 जय श्री कृष्ण जी 🙏
Lord Shree Krishna choosen Arjuna...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
Krishna give knowledge of the Srimad Bhagavad-Gita to Arjuna because there were many reasons.
Context of the Kurukshetra War: The Gita is set on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where Arjuna, a warrior prince, is filled with doubt and moral confusion about fighting in the war against his own relatives and teachers. Krishna's guidance is aimed at helping him navigate this crisis.
Preparedness to Learn: Arjuna's willingness to seek guidance and his openness to Krishna's teachings demonstrate his readiness to receive such profound knowledge. He acknowledges his confusion and seeks help, which is a prerequisite for spiritual learning.
Arjuna's Role: As a key figure in the Mahabharata, Arjuna embodies the struggles of duty (dharma) and righteousness. His internal conflict serves as a universal metaphor for the dilemmas faced by individuals in life.

Prabhu Sri Krishna Ji said:
I am the sapidity in water, O Arjuna!
I am the light in the moon and the sun
I am the syllable AUM in all the Vedas, sound in ether, and virility in men
I am the sweet fragrance in earth and the brilliance in fire, the life in all beings
I am austerity in ascetics
Know Me, O Arjuna!
As the eternal seed of all beings
I am the intelligence of the intelligent
the splendour of the splendid objects am I!
Of the strong, I am the strength devoid of desire and attachment, and in [all] beings.
I am the desire unopposed to Dharma, O Arjuna!
Whatever being [and objects] that are pure, active and inert, know that they proceed from Me.
They are in Me, yet I am not in them.

Theory of Swami Shree Chakardhara...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
Swami Shree Chakardhara depicted a theory about Karma, whatever we perform daily is a Karma. Jeevs are naturally a doer, Jeevs can’t even rest a while without doing a deed. Jeevs are very helpless by his nature and too much strong if he remembers who is his Parmeshwara.
Swami Ji’s theory is well explained and clear about the Karma. According to Swami Ji, Karmas are not always physically performed. Sometimes karmas are our thoughts and words also. Jeevs are doing karmas every second, even in any form like talking, walking, sleeping, eating, thinking and all the basic activites.
Origin of Karmas It has already been explained that in the first three creations, the jeevs prepared for the performance of deeds and in the fourth creation the deeds performed became rewardable. Now, in this the role of Devtas began. Devtas are ordered to give rewards to the jeevs. Since jeev can't reward himself so Devtas as an examiner takes charge to reward the Jeevs, but on the top, the Parmeshwara is holding the charge of Principal. Only by his grant, the Devtas give rewards to Jeevs, positive or negative both by deeds.
Three stages of Karmas Swami Ji explained the cause of Karmas and now he is explaining the three stage of Karmas. A single karma is performed by a process. These stage of Karmas are:
1️⃣ Thinking: This is the very first process, whatever jeevs want to perform, he thinks for that.
2️⃣ Speaking: After thinking and assuming, Jeevs secondly speak for that.
3️⃣ Acting: Very last, after speaking jeevs act for that physically.
Since all the karmas are performed by jeevs, but there is a hidden force working inside. The hidden force have coated a layer of dust on the jeevs. Actually, the karmas are the bondages and the real hurdle in the path of liberation. Jeevs can’t attain bliss without leaving the greed of karma.

Surrender everything to me, I am ...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
Lord Shree Krishna said that during the last chapter since, he exhausted all other advice to Arjuna regarding:
1. Jnana Yoga: The path of external renunciation, where outside activity is given up in pursuit of inner enquiry.
2. Karma Yoga: It purifies the mind. It leads one to consider dharma of work, and the work according to one's dharma, doing god's work.
3. Raja Yoga: It does emphasize the importance of self-control, meditation, and inner discipline, which are core principles of Raja Yoga, and discusses various yogic paths including Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Jnana Yoga.
Sarva-Dharman parityajya mam ekam sharanam vraja aham tvam sarva-papebhyo mokshayishyami ma shuchah.
Lord Krishna said: Abandon all Dharma (duties) and just surrender unto me (the will of God). I shall deliver you from all bonds of Karma. Do not fear.

Original Leela in Marathi:
केशववीहीरी उद्यापनी सातरा आरोगणा :
सासु सुनेची विहिर ऋद्धपुर
ऋद्धपुर च्या पुर्वेला तिवसा रोडवर असलेली श्री गोविंद प्रभुं चरणांकित, ही विहिर सासु, सुनेची विहिर म्हणून प्रसिद्ध आहे.
लिळा :
नगराच्या पूर्वेस केशवनायकांनी विहिर खोदली. परंतु पाणी लागत नाही म्हणुन चिंतित झाले. मग श्रीप्रभु बाबांना विनंती केली, “ बाबा मी खुप कष्टाने विहिर खोदली परंतु पाणी लागत नाही.” सर्वज्ञ म्हणाले, “अवो मेला जाए, वीहीरी खणावी म्हणे : न खणावी म्हणे : मेला जाए खणावीची म्हणे :” तेंव्हा केशव नायक म्हणाले, “जी,जी एव्हडी खोल विहिर खोदली परंतु पाणी लागले नाही.” सर्वज्ञ म्हणाले, अवो मेला जाए खण म्हणे : आणि श्री चरणाचा अंगठा लावला. केशवनायकांनी थोडे खोदताच, खुप पाणी लागले. संपुर्ण विहिर पाण्याने भरली. सर्वजन आश्चर्यचकित झाले.
नंतर केशवनायकांनी सुंदर चिरेबंदी विहिर बांधली. आता फक्त वरील काठ बांधणे बाकी होते. तेंव्हा श्रीप्रभु म्हणाले, “मेला जाए, सीसवठी न बांधता, अगोदर उद्यापन कर म्हणे :” केशव नायक म्हणाले, ज्याअर्थी गोसावी म्हणतात तेंव्हा पुढे काही तरी कठीन प्रसंग असेल ! म्हणून उद्यापण करवित असतील. मग केशव नायकांनी उद्यापऩाची तयारी केली. माडव घातला, ब्राम्हण बोलावले, हवण केले, ब्राम्हणाला जेउ घातले. नंतर गोसावी तेथे बीजे केले, विहीरीमधे एका ठिकाणी बसुन आरोगणा झाली.
इकडे त्याच दिवसी कटक देवगीरीला विठ्ठलनायक व दाएनायकांना, जे राज दरबारा मधे दरबारी होते तृटी आली म्हणून पकडले. केशवनायक त्यांचे व्याही होते, व त्यांनी काही वस्तू केशवनायकां कडे ठेवली होती. म्हणून केशवनायक ही नागवले गेले. तेंव्हा केशवनायक म्हणाले, “राउळांनी येणा-या संकटाची सुचना म्हणून उद्यापण करविले..! [ऋ.च. १५५]
