Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Krishna is most misunderstood of all gods. He is branded as a womaniser, One who steals butter, and a lier. Here, I am expalining what is the meaning behind Krishna stealing the butter. Milk matures and transforms into curd. By chruning the curd - butter gets separated and begins to float. This is what krishna is after. A devotees mind is compared to milk which through constant devotion matures and slowly he begins to separte himself from wordly attachment, friends and families like butter separting from curd. At this stage, the devotee need not have to go insearch of his lord instead lord himself comes to him. This is the meaning behind krishna going after butter. raji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 For who has followed Krishna through the Mahabharata and read his 18 chapters of wisdom talk to Arjuna, it is hard to miss tha mark of the Purushottama. I personally don't find any inclination to try to understand krishna from the later day Lila texts. rajeshwari iyer <rajii31 (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote: Krishna is most misunderstood of all gods.
