Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Thank you Sundar-ji for all the appropriate quotes and references from THE SRIMAD BHAGVAT GITA glorifying all of Lord Krishna's divine attributes . Yes! SRI KRISHNA AVATARA IS THE 'POORNAAVATARA ' OR 'VIBHAVA' AVATARA' full of 16 KALAS OR DIVINE ATTRIBUTES. Our beloved professorji mentioned in an earlier post ( several months ago) regarding ) "SVARUUPA LAKSHANA" and "TATASTA' lakshanas - Lord Krishna haS both these lakshnas - that is what made HIM a 'poornavatara' ! ( MAY BE OUR PROFESSOR-JI can quote the exact references from Sri BHATTATHRI'S SRIMAD NARYANEEIYAM describing these two Lakshanas ! Lord Krishna is 'God' in Human form! HIS 'AKARSHANA SHAKTIS'are many ! That is why SRI VALLABHACHARYA SINGS ECSTATICALLY IN MADHURUASTAKAM adharam madhuram vadanam madhuram nayanam madhuram hasitam madhuram hridayam madhuram gamanam madhuram mathurA dhipate rakhilam madhuram Sweet are Your lips, sweet is Your face, sweet are Your eyes, sweet is Your smile, sweet is Your heart, sweet is Your gait, O Lord of Mathura, everything about You is sweet. and ADI SHANKARA BHAGVADAPADA also praises Lord Krishna thus in his Prabodha Sudhakara as 'Purushottama' nityAnandaikarasaM sachchinmAtraM svayaMjyotiH . purushhottamamajamIshaM vande shriiyAdavAdhIsham.h .. I adore Krishna, the Supreme Person, the Unborn Lord, the Self-effulgent One, the Supreme Lord of the descendents of Yadu, Whose nature is that of existence and consciousness, and Whose essence is entirely that of eternal bliss. and JAGADGURU ADI SHANKARA alsp praises Lord Krishna thus in his Srii Krishnashtakam guNAkaraM sukhAkaraM kR^ipAkaraM kR^ipAparaM suradvishhannikandanaM namAmi gopanandanam.h . navInagopanAgaraM navInakelilampaTaM namAmi meghasundaraM taDitprabhAlasatpaTam.h .. Krishna is the repository of all good qualities, all happiness, and grace . He destroys the enemies of the gods and delights the Gopas . I bow to the mischievous cowherd Krishna, Who is attached to His exploits, which (appear) new (every day), Who has the handsome complexion of a dark cloud, and Who wears a yellow garment (pItAmbara) that shines likes lightning. Sri Krishna's glories are many and infinite!
