over-estimate Krishna.by: siddons_hodge_1 12/25/01 12:03 pmMsg: 12 of 13In the

more ancient Veda (RigVeda)the nameKrishna occurs , but without any relation to

agreat Deity. The earliest mention of Krishna theson of Devaki, is in the

Chhandogya Upanishad,where he appears to be just a scholar. The was agreat

Asura named Krishna, who with 10,000followers committed fearful devastation,

until hewas defeated by Indra. In another vedic hymn,50,000 Krishnas are said

to have been slain andit is added in another that his pregnant wiveswere slain

with him that he might leave noposterity. This is supposed to have reference

tothe Rakshasas or to the dark-coloured aborigenesof India( non-aryans and

perhaps related to theaustralian aborigenes). Later a Krishna waschanged into a

myth and even in the SupremeDeity! At the most, Krishna could be the

eighthAvatar of Lord Vishnu. The cult of Krishna is asign of degeneration and

decline of the aryanculture of India.
