Sree Krishna, the Lord of Love

Krishna (Hindu deity)
As the physical sun's effulgence embodies or is co-existent with heat,
so the Spiritual Sun's effulgence embodies and is co-existent with
Intelligence. This co-existent Absolute Love and Absolute Intelligence
forms the Being of this Creation. Krishna is, therefore, called the
embodiment of Being, Intelligence and Bliss, or Life, Truth and Love.
Every particle of this radiance of Krishna's Form-Body is not only
instinct with these three attributes in one, but has within it the germ
of Krishna's Form and Power.
The belief that the First Cause of the universe has no form, is based
partly on error of its conception and upon ignorance of the laws of
Nature. It is a delusion to think that all forms are human, material,
and finite, and that to acknowledge that this Supreme Being has a form
is to take away from Him His absolute divinity, spirituality and
infinity.
That which is not in the seed cannot appear in the tree which comes out
of it, says an aphorism of the Vedānta philosophy. This being an
undeniable truth, even from a common sense standpoint, it may be asked:
If God is formless, and if that formless, abstract God be the source
from which the universe has come, then how can that creation contain any
form? If man's creator is formless, to put the question in another way,
wherefrom has He His form? If God has no form, then He can have no idea
of form, and having no idea of form, how can He then create form, for
creation is but expansion of Idea.
Creation has sprung from God's will, says the Holy Bible, as also the
Veda. These tell us—and both the Christians and the Hindoos are agreed
on this point—that God has a Will. What is will? It is but the function
or attribute of the mind. Just as where there is no fire there can be no
smoke, so where there is no mind there can be no will. Once we admit
that God has a will, we cannot escape admitting that He has a mind, the
function of which—will—He exercised in order to create the universe.
