krsna Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 YASODA HAD TWINS His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada Srila Viswanath Chakravarti Thakur discusses that Krishna appeared simultaneously as the son of Devaki, and along with the spiritual energy Yogamaya as the son of Yasoda. As the son of Devaki He first appeared as Vishnu, and because Vasudev was not in the position of pure affection for Krishna, Vasudev worshiped his son as Lord Vishnu. Yasoda, however, pleased her son Krishna without understanding His Godhood. This is the difference between Krishna as the son of Yasoda and as the son of Devaki. This is explained by Viswanath Chakravarti on the au-thority of Hari-vamśa. — Purport to Bhāg. 10.3.47. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
