Sree Krishna, the Lord of Love
Premananda Bharati, Baba
Krishna (Hindu deity)
The Asuras that He killed were not killed by Him, but by the Incarnation
of Vishnoo which was within Him, and His part in those actions was to
send the souls of those Asuras to His Absolute Love Realm, a reward
reserved for His highest lovers and devotees, a kindness for enemies
which Krishna alone can feel and show. Krishna has no power even to hurt
a fly, for He is nothing but Love Itself, and does not know anything
else but Love. This much can be said about Krishna's participation in
these what seemed to be acts of killing, that the powers of Vishnoo
within Him that committed them, found His Body the most perfect medium
for their operations.
One word of explanation is necessary here as to who the Asuras were and
how they could assume such shapes. These mentions of Asuras and demons
in the Hindoo book prejudice the unknowing and unthinking Western minds
against the veracity of Hindoo historians and incline them to think that
ancient Hindoo history are mixed with myths and fables. A little calm
and intelligent thinking ought to correct the mistakes of such hasty
judgment. Modern science, too, is daily paving the way to belief in
things which even a quarter of a century ago were thought absurd and
impossible. Science is proving the fact of the unlimited potentialities
of the human mind. Mind-force is at present the subject of all the most
advanced Western scientists and philosophers. When these will succeed in
discovering the laws and truths of the mental plane, as they are now
doing of the material plane, no facts of Hindoo history or of the
histories of ancient times will strike modern man as mythical or absurd.
